The last week has been horrifying to me. My palate wasn’t used to the Asian foods I had been eating, which resulted in major stomach problems. I got my hands on medication for 4 days and after that the problems has not come back. I have been doing the cooking ever since Noreen went on holiday last week, but I seem to begin to have less inspiration to come up with dishes. On top of that I received some setbacks. I had a job interview at the museum last week too, but because they need to do a CBR (criminal record check) on me, I might not start working there for at least a week. I am really disappointed since I hadn’t thought that you might need one when you are going to be working there on a volunteer basis. So I was totally bummed out about this and eventually e-mailed the coordinator of my course to see if this was becoming a main difficulty for passing the ‘stay abroad’ programme. I have been touch with many companies in High Wycombe, but so far have only received refusals.
WH Smith. Online application forms are a huge pain in the arse, they take up some time to fill in and after that you have to walk around all frustrated to wait for their answer. Some of them are really quick in sending a reply, but this almost always means that they don’t think you have the right credentials or don’t fit into their work environment. As I don’t have a patient nature and don’t have the time to play a tourist, I felt that the refusals made my mood worse. The most annoying part of it all is the answer WH Smith sent me. If I counted the refusals I received so far and this would be around number 12. First they say that they were really impressed with my CV, then they have the audacity to explain to me that I did make the cut, but am not invited for an interview because they set their eyes on someone else. So that was bye bye WH Smith for so far...
I think I have made it all up to you by writing this amazingly blabbing story of disgust and happiness and am now going to bed.
Good night and enjoy the photos!
