| | i dont know | ] | Hi! Im on livejournal again!! Fathead is coming back tomorrow! Yay! Now life can get back to normal. Not that I can't have a normal life without fathead, but it is wierd when your closest friend who you live with, sleep with, and eat with, suddenly disappears for a month. I have lost a hold of my normal habits. It is hard even to decide what to cook for dinner without the normal input of "No chickpeas! They are for chicks!" etc.
You know I kind of feel like LJ is like an oracle, and if I express some of the puzzling problems that have been pressing on my mind, then I may get the answers I have been looking for. Is Justin Timberlake trying to impersonate Michael Jackson, or is he just a really hot dancer? And why does my mother panic and worry when I tell her I have to replace my passport because it is damaged? I mean what possible reason does she have to worry? What possible reason?
So there you go, I am listening for answers.......
I have got a job! Yes I am a telephone wine consultant. Be warned if you are going to invite me to a dinner party and serve wine, because I shall be HIGHLY critical of your choices and make suggestions.
The last few weeks has been interesting because I have never actualy had a proper job interview. The first iterview I had was with "Readers Digest". I was totally unprepared for what I have now found out were "behavioural" questions. Behavioural questions????!!!! If you don't know (Tas you would know, you evil recruitment psychologist!) behavioural questions are when they ask you things like "So describe a time when you had to deal with a conflict situation at your last job. How did you deal with it, and what was the outcome?"
WELL!! If you're like me, and some of you are I'm sure, the only conflict situations that stand out in your career are the one's where you told your boss she is a crazy bitch, and stormed out, throwing your "Hi! I'm Elissa, ask me a stupid question about a book!!" badge behind you.
I didn't get that job, but then I had to go to a group interview for Cellarmasters, and that was weird as well. The recruitment lady used alot of hand gestures and spoke very wide-openly mouthedly and made lashings of eye contact. And when she nodded in agreement she practically kowtowed to the floor saying "Yes!! YES!!".
So I did the same the whole way through the interview. Which as you all know is not really how I speak and act at all! I went home wondering if I had been a bit OTT. But two days later she calls me and said they all thought I was just great! "Just great!!" she said about three times. So it would seem that talking as though you are making sign language at a deaf person is the surefire way to get a job.
So anyway, seeing as my first lot of course fees is due to be paid in two weeks, it is lucky that I have gotten a job.
So next week Fatfool and I will have to go and find a new place. And once that is done then I will have a job, and a house, and on my way to the Great Australian Dream. I should go and buy some of that brightly coloured tableware. Blue and yellow. |

| | Um..I dunno what this is. Techno stuff. | ] | Hi guys!!! Im on livejournal! I actually registered ages ago, but just havent written anything. I mainly signed up so i could make smart alec responses to all of thecatdisappear's posts, but I haven't even done that. BTW am I supposed to refer to everyone by their livejournal alias? Because thecatdisappear takes heaps longer to type than @$%. That was supposed to say Tim but I didn't want to give away his identity. Oops I just did! Sorry dude! You are no longer an international man of mystery. Look we all knew it was you anyway, who are you trying to kid.
I obtained my livejournal alias from using the Anagram Generator that I recently got off the internet. For those of who are not as clever as I am, an anagram is rearranging the letters of a word or phrase to make new ones. Many of the world's great spies, con artists, and general allround mysterious people use anagrams of their names as aliases. I typed in my name, and this was the best it could come up with. According to some of those people who dwell on the fringe of the Belief System, an anagram of one's name can offer mystical insight into one's Destiny, Character, and Talents. Great. I shall ponder on my anagram and it's message from the ethereal, and try to fathom it's great meaning for my life. He he.
Well now that the Fat Idiot (Sogman) has abandoned me for better weather, and better food (smirk) I have been spending my days going to bed late, getting up even later, eating nothing but "unsubstantial" vegetarian meals, and playing girly computer games. Things I am scolded for when he is here. And he will be pleased to find when he returns that the ferrets now enjoy being dressed up in baby clothes and are learning how to play sensible games like "eggs bacon chips or cheese which would you rather please" rather than the usual rough and tumble which is only going to cause accidents and someones eye out.
So things are going to be different when he returns. yes, different, it's all changed. Just wait. Its all changed. This is girly territory now. |
