You've heard it all before.
I fully intend on returning to Australia after I finish at Te Whare, after which I will have to sort out a job or benifet or something. Some sort of income at any rate. Any takers on a flatmate next year? I'm pretty sure there are plenty of people who wouldn't mind that but just in case something goes wrong I need a back up plan.
The plan is this,
* Go back to Canberra.
* Spend time with siblings while saving up some coin.
* Sort out student allowance.
* Go to Sydney.
* Get educated in all things music for a year.
* Audition for NIDA.
* Spend at least five years studying.
* Hit Cruise Control.
* Make new plan.
Next week I'm putting a deposit on an Electric guitar with amp and backup set of strings. After that I plan on fixing my currant guitar and busking to finish paying back Angie. As i improve I'll probably busk every weekend and not stop until I make $100 a day. Travel as required.
I just went to the local Work Centre to see what I.T courses I can do so I can get a decent job, but I'm one year over age to count as youth and get the course, and I'm on the wrong benifet. I need to be on the Invalids Benifet in order to qualify and I'm only on Sickness Benifet.
Lame. Poo. Stinky.
So with no skills other than flipping burgers at Mc'Crappa's (which I'm NEVER doing again), I have no choice than to shark in on the guitar and make monney that way. Which doesn't strike me as so bad because at least I'll be in the open and can count on breathing semi-polluted-fresher-than-office-recycled air.
And I'll be able to keep the benifet because the government won't know about that extra bit of income. The cash will come in handy me thinks. Gods I need it.
I'll keep you up to date on progress. For now, back to Space Invaders.
