I write in an internet cafe in Newport, IW, after the interview at the Isle of Wight College for the post of Student Liaison Officer.
The interview went quite well, I thought, but I think they were a little taken a back by my non-commital reaction to them saying "We appreciate what it's like waiting to find out about a job after an interview, so we'll let you know either by the end of today or tomorrow morning.". I've heard this sooooo often now that I'm almost disappointed to hear it. Not that "We don't give a shit about you or your feelings and we'll tell you if we feel like it," would be much better.
I'll keep you posted.
'To Do' List Update
Seeing as people are already bemoaning being unable to keep their NY's resolutions, my 'To Do' list looks like this:
1. Get a job: Pending.
2. Finish the book: Pending.
3. Move Out: Pending
4. Write every day: in progress, kept with so far.
5. Leave the country....pending...
You get the idea.
People and their places
Allie is, at present, doing a passable impression of a genetically-engineered Lara Croft/Anneka Rice hybrid in the Lake District. She's on some kind of management training exercise, but as far as I can tell, sounds like the plot of a kids' TV programme from the late 80s. Damn her, I'm jealous.
Dave has gone back to work in Southampton, and seems pretty resigned to working solidly for the next two weeks, weekends included. Whether or not Dave and I will make a repeat performance at Warwick Student Unon for the RAG Valentine's Ball remains to be seen.
