This is an update on my life in Australia I have been struggling with, for there is so little to write.
I'm still in Burrum Heads and still looking for a job.
In the last months I've applied for every job available around here: computer salesman at Harvey Norman, shop manager at the aldi, data-entry-clerk, coffee-machine-operator, cemetery-park-cleaner, bartender, waiter, manager at a toy store, but nothing. Some have the decency to write me an e-mail that I will not be invited for an interview, but from most you just hear nothing.
Then again, maybe I have to be realistic about finding a job here, because the unemployment is actually worse then it looks. The unemployment level around here is around 9%, but “A lot of those jobs have gone down to one hour a week, and cannot really be classified as full-time."
And without job and money there is only so much I can do, so few places I can go to and tell about. I don't think anyone wants to hear about the latest music I listened to, the latest books I read, or the computer games I've played, but that's what it comes down to.
Luckily, in 2,5 weeks, there will be a holiday to Fraser Island that I'm really looking forward to. I'll tell about that shortly and will give some more info on the nature here, for that's the only thing that I can really talk about.
I just reread what I just wrote and wanted to say one thing: Don't worry about me, I'll be ok. I just had to get this off my chest and out in the open.
