freshly sharpened pencils...

the new job's actually really interesting. i work with a back office team for a financing company on a pretty cool campus in north briz. they've just closed their hq in london and so there's plenty to be done. but i've been warned. yes, today, my very friendly supervisor warned me against working myself out of a job. yep!! if i'm too effecient and finish my tasks sooner than timetabled my ten week assignment will be cut short - with no extra pay. such is the price for being a hard worker.

besides that, i'm busy house hunting. i'm crashing on a futon at a friend's flat. it's pretty cool coz i'm out of the elements and have plenty food to eat. houses are in such short supply though. especially ones with nice big gardens for summer bbq's. and then there's the car issue. i really need a car. i need car like yesterday. even a £300 micra will do for now. i'm so sick of buses - already!

thinking i need a second job i walked into a large tesco's to ask for an employment form and the lady smiles and says they have no vacancies. tesco's - no work!! is life that tight?
