(no subject)
I'm not sure how I feel, but I'm going to write until I know.
My Mom and I have been shooting the shit back and forth about job options for me. I applied at a shitload of places (like, not even kidding, 19-20 places) and so far, nothing. I think next week I will do the same in Langley as so far Guildford has yeilded no results at all. A friend suggested I look on Craigslist through the 'jobs' section. I poked around a bit and highlighted some favourable ones. It's really jumbled, though. It's hard to sift through and search for what you're looking for on craigslist.
I will, however, have a job before this month is out. I've promised myself this and I'm sticking to it.
In better news, Duane and I now have 8 solid songs recorded. I am usually pretty humble about my music, but i have to say I'm very proud and impressed with my band's current progress. A group called Less Than Three Promotions is interested and will be attending our show on the 12th, they hope, if not we may have to play again or audition. Nonetheless, it's a a promoter, meaning better shows in better venues. I think they want a demo first so Duane is going to talk to them and ask them if we need a demo. If we do, we'll push our focus on that. That means job soon, but I'm excited (if Jenny falls through) to record with the guy Something Survived recorded with, he's really chill and he'll let you know if he thinks something needs re-working or sucks. I like honesty. For what he does, he could just as easily record people, take the money and run - he takes the time to let you know if you're not doing it right.
My house went up for sale this morning at a cool $374,900. We're all hoping it sells quickly (most places in my complex have) but there's another unit that is selling for less. Our house looks better, and is in a better location, but it such a high priced market, people don't care about small things, they just want the cheaper house. Nonetheless, it's on the market and looking spectacular, so my mom's mood has improved greatly.
Being the way I am these days makes me feel a little angry at myself. I figure I could have at least stuck it out at Funworld for a while and not beaked them out just to quit. But that was a decision I made, I'm living in it. I figure I should apply some better places. HMV or something, I'm also considering going downtown, or at least to Metro/Burnaby. A 3-zone bus pass is fucking expensive, 2 is debatable.
Question, where do people think I should apply? Sometimes you guys know things I keep forgetting, so have at it.
I can't think of much else to say. I think I've found out I feel a little lazy and haphazardly. I want to do something, but have no money. Ha. So here I am.
I hope everyone's having a good day.
