General life update #3

So I went down to Gilds to get registered yesterday and was told the two people that do it were not in, so come back tomorrow. So I went back today and was told they don’r register people on a Friday and I needed to come back next week!

Today has been an absolute joke of a day so far even before that. When I got up I found my computet had restarted. Power glitch maybe? The result is all my software was offline including my downloads so there is bandwidth wasted and my music was obviously off too. My desktop seemed completely screwed because of it because I had to pull the cable out the back to get it to restart.

Plus last night Firefox crashed with loads of pages I had kept open to come back to over the course of the past week. This is after me and my parents had a big talk about finances for next year and how I was utterly, utterly screwed.

Also in computer related problems, the coding I was doing for a client turned up to be a massively bigger job than I thought it was going to be and far more flustrating as well. It managed to cause no end of problems and ate up most of my morning.

As for job hunting, as my the fact I am going to yet another agency, it’s being completely unsuccessful. Both my interviews I had with The Woodman and Iceland turned out to be go nowheres and still place after place that said they would get back to me has failed to do so.

It’s getting to the point where I am running out of money to job hunt. The amount I have spent on buses without getting anywhere is just silly. It’s also destroying my summer plans. If I had a job I could just go do the hours I have and spend my free time working on projects. But because I don’t have allocated work time and free time I can’t focus properly. And even when I can get focused on something by the end of the day I’m usually too depressed to do anything other than to go to bed anyway.

I’m in dire need of a plan. And a breather in which I have the time to write one. Which would require me getting a job and there seems to be a worldwide conspiracy preventing that. The rare escapes I do get (ie my social life) are about to get slashed as Fonze is probably going to bail on them as he’s almost as broke as I am so there goes any hope of enjoying even a small part of my summer (ironically named a holiday).

I’d like to say that it’s just a temperory problem and I just have to hold out until I go back to uni. But given I don’t have a job, my holy grail of uni accommodation may be in jepody. When factoring in how bad the summer was going to be I thought I had it covered but I didn’t consider what would happen if you removed hope from the equasion.

I don’t really know what to do now. I could go home, go to get and listen to Seether. Go home, go to bed and watch DC or TNG. Or reject the idea of going home because home is depressing and stay in Eniac indefinitely. They are all good options I guess.
