Hallucinagic Workaholic

[secondlina]

I'm not good at relaxing. I've been out of work for 4 days (and I even still have a form of work in contracts) and yet i'm sent spinning in a panic frenzy. I guess I was raised with the idea that not having 'something to do' was bad. Or something. As Link keeps saying (and I agree) it might take me a little while (a month or two) to get a good job. I've got savings and i'm intitled to Unemployment insurance, so it's not the lack of money that scares me. I guess I just worry about being lazy or something. I am not good with limbo. But I need to accept that I might be jobless for a while if I want to find a good job. Finding my last job took me a good six months! I'm giving myself maximum 2 months to find my new one. Since i've got the luxury of being able to take the time to search and find the perfect job, I will.

Sickness is starting to clear up. For some reason, whenever I have a fever, I get really trippy hallucinations. I guess over-active imaginations aren't good all the time!

This weekend i'm going back to Ottawa for the Gatineau comic festival. For those of you in the area, it's usually at the museum of civilisations in Gatineau, but due to a strike at the museum, it's now in Jacques-Cartier Park right next to it. it's a saturday-sunday thing. Come and see me if you can! I'll make you a pretty drawing.

I'm staying in Ottawa until Tuesday it seems. My old boss called me to do some extra work from afar. Turns out, a part of that work I can't actually do out of the office and the newbies can't handle it. So my boss kinda hinted that since I was in the area this weekend, I could step into the office and finish a few more things for them. meh. I'll do it. But i'm going in my damn jeans. no way i'm packing a full costume just to go debunk a website. Sorry.

Speaking of sorry, I can't seem to stop apologizing lately. Link must me really tired of me apologizing every time I open a box and release a swarm of my junk on the floor... I have a lot of junk. And I haven't even opened the boxes ACTUALLY called 'junk' yet.

*goes to pack for the weekend*

Over and Out

Being jobless is always scary. I'm still freaked about finding an internship and actual job myself, but good jobs do take time to find. And it'll be good for you to have your previous job completely over and done with before taking on a new job.

Lumiere made me crack up. I'm getting the roommates caught up on Disney movies since there are many they've not seen! (Darn these young kids these days..) We came close to watching Beauty & the Beast earlier, until it was revealed one of the roommates never saw Aladdin. Such a crime!

I hope you're completely rid of the illness soon. Hallucinations while sick are some of the worst!

I need to buy some Disney movies. All the ones I used to own were actually 'family' ownage, so I left them with my parents (I kept a few that I had bought with my own money, but i,m missing classics like Mulan, Hercules and Alladin since my dad wanted to keep those...And disney movies are so expensive!)

Good luck!

-and does Link really go around shirtless?

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Yes. yes he does. A lot.




....And notice how i'm not complaning.

I have been jobless since July, and I may be jobless until the time comes that I ship out to boot camp. D=

PLEASE DON'T SAY YOU ARE LAZY~!

(Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorite Disney movies ever!)

Yeah, you're right! I,m not lazy! i'm just going thru a transition!

[spankingfemme.livejournal.com]

Aw hun! I've got no worries for you and work! You'll find the perfect job, and I'm sure you'll find many ways to keep yourself busy in the meantime ;) Hope the sickies go away soon!

I could draw another comic! That would keep me busy!!! :D

[spankingfemme.livejournal.com]

This is a great idea! XD

[ozma914.livejournal.com]

At least you came up with an hilarious illustration!

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

That's me. Taking weird situations and turning them into comics! I am god of the awkward material!

[ozma914.livejournal.com]

Exactly what I do with my columns ...

Being jobless all summer and most of September made me feel uneasy. (Plus, it didn't help that my savings were getting low since I didn't work while going to school). You just have to keep telling yourself that something will turn up and maybe try to keep yourself busy in the meantime.

Yeah. It took 6 months to find my first job, so I really have to focus on the fact that it might take a while to find a new one and that taking a job just to fill up the space might just make me unwilling to keep searching.

Silly silly Isa. I don't think the furniture has room to talk. All they do is lay around all day, so...

Try to be patient. Besides, you don't want to end up with a crap job anyway. Hopefully the perfect one will be right around the corner. Just wait!!!

Fesival sounds awesome! Have fun!

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Hey you're right! Damn lazy furniture!

[izo-chan.livejournal.com]

Ok, you + Lumiere = hysterical. XDXD That gave me a good laugh, haha.

I hope you have fun this weekend!

We understand each other because we are both french and enjoy setting things on fire.
