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...

I'll admit I read some of it. I figured I can't mock something if I at least don't know of it. I wasn't a big fan, but I give the writer a chance to do better. Maybe she just needed to get all her fangirl out and her next series will be better (hopefully because she's so popular)

And if Twilight and whatever else she writes remains in that same style, that's fine too. Okay, it's not grand litterature, but it aims 12 to 14 year olds who LIKE cheesy stories. Not every book out there can be the next bible. It takes crappy stories, it takes okay stories and it takes good stories. And every type comes with it's fanbase. I dunno. I think Twilight has hit it's market well and I think that anything that can get teenagers to read is good. However, I would stop comparing it to Harry Potter and the Golden Compass. That's just not fair.

Teenagers are one thing, but this series has massive fans of 40 year old women amongst some of it's fangirliest fans.

And I heard that some people like her other book The Host a lot better. *shrugs* Go figure.
