Can't think of title

Journal Entry: Wed Sep 29, 2010, 5:36 AM
Just when I thought all was well, our laminate glass cutting board explodes into practically molten pieces and butt-rapes out kitchen bench and carpet - or should I say, our land lord's kitchen bench and carpet.

That wasn't the only shit thing happening recently. I got a "trial" as a waitress at the Thai restaurant 200m from my house (so like a 2 minute walk). Sounds hunky dory right? WRONG. It was one of the most stressful 2 nights of my life. It would have been alright, but the people who run the place don't speak English well, and so I couldn't understand what they were saying. All the simplest tasks were made extremely difficult, because I lacked the necessary ESP required so I felt like the village idiot. On top of that, in less than 24 hours, they wanted me to memorise the entire menu in short hand. Guess what? I still can't remember the first 3 and it's been almost a week.

Besides that, it's been alright - finished my studies, but will be doing an extra unit. I am dissapointed that I have not yet got a decent job, I feel like a friggin dole bludger, but at the same time I don't want to be stuck as a burger flipper. So I've been contemplating going to University to do psychology. I like that idea, but choosing that option makes me feel like I wasted 2 years on Aeroskills for nothing. But alas such is life.

Sorry about your problems :( I hope you'll encounter less stress from now on!

Psychology YES :thumbsup: If you indeed do like it, I say go for it! I don't wanna rant about how much I like psychology and why I chose not to study it (mostly because it would've meant living in a city which I dread, for 3 or 4 years). If it won't be impossibly hard for you financially, it's definitely worth studying something you're interested in ;)

Thanks, I'm not usually one to rant (although I did actually keep this journal relatively civil :paranoid: ). Though I do hope that things change for the better - if I could make a wish, it would be to be really good at one single proffesion.

Turns out between when I wrote this and yesterday that isntead of applying for Phsychology I applied for something... a little more diffcult. I hope that I don't end up regretting my decision. I have a terrible habit of biting off way more than I can chew, and not asking for help :iconfacepalmplz:

Good luck with that too, then ;)

I'm the exact opposite: the under-achiever who never takes any risk. If it's something I deem (too) difficult, I won't even give it a try.

I wish I could be like you, then perhaps I wouldn't stress out so much :XD:

3 years in vocational studying chemistry and all i got was 3 contracts each spanning for 3 months in the 3 yeasr after graduating... Getting decent job, or even job at all is hard.

I can sympathise with that; though I didn't do 3 years, I did 2 in a specfic field, and alas, it has got me no where. It looks like I'll be working at a chicken farm or in an slaughter house soon and for a long time if I don't get into uni.

Might want to have a little chat with Tayton, If I recall correctly he was also a psyche major.

Oh, I had no idea he does psychology; thanks! Though I changed my mind between this journal and yesterday, and instead applied for a course related to my aeroskills stuff; I couldn't bring myself to let those 2 years spent studying mean nothing. Though, whether I even get accepted, is a whole nother ball game.
