i need a holiday

2004
12.23

status update: currently unemployed (and feeling unwanted).

my desktop was dead. i have spent $500 on upgrading (motherboard, harddrive, repair, etc). im getting frustrated. its been 4 days, and its not yet ready. a phone call from Albert today didnt ease my grumpiness.

feeling useless, i managed to place a phone call to Gloria in CPA. she didnt know that the completion letter has been sent. i enquired as to when will the assessment more likely to be ready? she said 15 jan. i asked her to repeat in disbelief. she said for the second time, 15 january. i nearly had a heart attack. her excuse was its near christmas, all assessment officers are really busy and will be on holiday. so my paperworks will not be looked at until the 15th. what will i do until is another mystery.

i asked yenni to enquire the flight back to indo. maybe i can seek calmness. i just realised though (well actually Jelita told me): i only have one month left in my visa.

i am starting to understand the feeling of my friends who last year were in limbo as to permanent residency and job. im feeling exactly like that. my only source of strength comes from the assurance that should i go back to indo, things would be much better. and im already leaning towards that idea.

desperado, u started applying for any part time positions available…. the $1200 credit card bill, $1700 left in the bank to pay for the bill plus PR not looking good. i need more $$$$$ and i need it fast. i have to earn in. my gmail blurted out 7 new emails, acknowledging the 15 minutes scramble of job application.

i have never felt soo lost like this before.

on a slightly positive tangent: its christmas eve tomm……
on another negative outlook: i will be alone going to the 12 o clock mass…..:(

in 8 more days, remind me to officially confirm that 2004 is the worst year for me. i thought the combination of my birthday in the year (April 20th, so 20-04), would bring me better luck. it didnt. i now need a holiday from this holiday.
