Gotta pimp'up that limbo.

So yeah, back to full time work, for a month at least, at the good old bookstore. It feels weird looking for work while working full time. It's actually kinda stressful.

Gonna go get some frames don ethis week. I've also got a bunch of interviews and I have to call an employment agency in montrĂ©al that seems to like my resume very, very much (yay). 

Money wise, things seem to be looking up, although now all my free time is dead. My days look alot like so: search for work, go to work, eat, respond to emails, draw for two hours, die in bed. I guess you win some and loose some. I'm gonna get ready for some interviews for tomorrow... I also have work at 2. Gah.

Hopefully next week i'll be able to see a few friends. Maybe on saturday. I kinda want to see my friend Fauve and my friend tama. I also need to meet up with the exhibit crew and i'd like to see my friends Natalie and Tanya at some point. And Marie-Claude. Gah, so many people, so little time...

At least you didn't actually READ it. I've seen hairballs that contained more sustenance than that book. I couldn't put it down, it was that bad of a train wreck. So I nursed my poor brain by heading to the library and finding some new fantasy series to try.

*sees the dedication to John McCain*

Aw geez, let's hope this isn't an indicator of how this one is gonna turn out...

Well, in the book's defense, some parts are actually okay. Some of the secondary protagonists seem pretty okay too. And once in a while, there's a good metaphore and hummm... The covers are very pretty (I almost bought twilight when it came out because the cover was so beautiful)

However, the content is still fangirly. However, i'm hoping the writer will do better next time. Maybe she just needed to get her fangirl out for the first series and later on she'll just get better. I'm hoping anyways, especially since some call her the next JK rowling.

I sold 3 copies of the book today, all to 14 year old girls.
