Cos I sure as hell do right now.

[rant]

So, today is the first day of my 'new life'. My fresh start. And I overslept. I went out without my ID on and dressed for warmish weather (It's raining here and really freezing) I missed 2 buses and when I finally got one, I was caught in traffic for half hour. Great start to a new way of life there.

Then I had to go for an interview with my head of 6th form and turned up 20 minutes late. I knew she was basically kicking me out (My attendance is poor at best) so I said I was withdrawing. She said ok and good luck and everything and withdrew me. Ok that's great. I don't have a college.

Then went round Croydon for about an hour and a half looking for a job. Went into all the employment agencies, but hey, they're only looking for people who want to do office work AND have experience. I have no such experience so they couldn't do anything for me. Out of... well, loads, 2 told me to e-mail in my (really bad) CV and they'd see if they can do anything for me in the way of temp work/experience. Now thoroughly cold, wet and hacked off I started to make my way home.

This though, is where my day starts picking up (Finally. I've only been awake for about 3 hours and I hate this new life!) in the for of Blue Arrow. They're a catering agency and I very nearly walked past. The word agency caught my eye and I went in because I've had some previous catering experience and I thought they might be able to help.

This is the part where we insert my saviour, the lovely Craig. It was great! he was so sympathetic with me (He was in the same situation when he left school) and got me to fill out some questionnaires. When I finished them he said that they were great and to come back tomorrow at 2 and he'd see what he could do for me, and it'd be lilely that he'd be able to get me some regular work, cash in hand, flexible hours and everything! Seriously, if he does get me something I don't think I'll be able to stop hugging him. I need this so badly, I mean I have no money, no college, no job, no home. I have a house, an address where I live but I don't want to be there. Who knows what importance I'll lose next.

But for now, I still need hugs. Today wasn't as bad as yesterday and I'm just taking things a day at a time but there's no-one here who can give me a hug. I just hope that everything gets better :)

*hugs*

Also, I'll be out of a computer soon so I desperately need money to buy one, then move out (I'll be out by new year, I swear) Until then I'm stuck in Croydon and I hate it.

Peace
Red :P

I also met a really nice looking paving slab offcut when I was there. There was a mutual interest in each other as it let me rest my head on her during the night. Then I was a bit of a twat and left before it woke up in the morning. Ha ha, take that you slab!

Oh wow, you really do need a hug :( And a break!

*hug*

I loathe how job agencies do that - I can't get experience working in a bar because I don't have any experience working in a bar. Go figure. And rain always knows precisely when it should turn up for maximum impact, just to make things stressful and soggy.

Not anywhere near as bad as what you are going through, but a year and a bit ago I lost my job, failed uni because of depression and illness and had to leave, and was fundamentally homeless because my ***** ex-housemates rented out my room while I was still living in it to a hideous youth with an overambitious libido, all in the same week. I had no address, but I stayed on sofas and in guest beds, so it's not like I was on the streets or anything but it meant I couldn't get a job until it was sorted out, and I had no loan. It rained then too... it's a conspiracy I tell you! It's hard to know where to go or what to do when it feels like you've lost everything. But it does wonders for the determination. And you seem pretty determined ;)

It is possible to build it all up again and it feel really good when you do!

Aki's Life v2.0 will be a huge improvement on its predecessor because it'll really be yours; in debt to nobody except by your own choosing. I really hope you get that Blue Arrow job and can work out where to go from there. Things will get better. And you have people in the world that care about you and support you, even if the people nearest to you geographically are ********

Also, ratmacros: is there anything they can't do? ^_^

****** <- fill in your own insults! ^_^

hope everything goes well in the near future, Red. Remember that when it's raining, it's always sunny somewhere else, and that it'll come your way. Or something like that :P

What dema said is true. I'd rather start up from nothing by myself than live the easy life while in debt to other people. Hopefully perseverence still pays off and you'll get that job at the blue arrow. If only so you can afford your computer and stay online with us ;) .

So here goes:

Eherm...*hubs*... oops... *stags*... Oh wait I meant...*stabs* :wacko:

... Nevermind <_< .

Cheers,
Bodacious.

Argh, second time my reply has mysterously vanished on the UE in two days....

Anywho, unfortuntly unlike the other peopel i'm not goign to hug you red.

.....

*watches you walk away*

.....

*AMBUSHUGS** teehee, got you there ^_^

ambushugs are alot better than normal hugs ^_^

Anywho i'm glad to hear you ahd some success in your day, and that youve finally started you new life! (woo go red!).

Despite me moving half way accross the world i'm still feeling that my new life hasnt begun yet (parents being to pariniod and controlling -_-)

I hope yo udo get a job through the blue arrow thingy, and everything works out for the best! :D

It'l lprobaly be hard and stressfull to begin with, but it should brighten up once you get the ball rolling :) (what, theres a ball now? *chases after it*)

Also, as for money you could always use whatever cash is left over from the "We miss you Mebob" Charity walk i told you to organise for the slaughterfest ;) and if theres no money left over, just steal some of one of UE's many slaves ^_^

*hugs again*

And remember to always look on the brightside of life-its easier to spit at chavs on that side :)

Anywho, good luck!! *hug*

*Hugs* Hope things pick up for you. It may look like a hard time now, but anything is possible if you want it enough and are willing to work to get it. And 10 years from now, you'd look back at this day and it won't look so bad, and you might even cherish what you learnt from it and how it shaped your life. :)

*hugs again*

Yay! I'm glad to hear you've got a job now :D

I hope it works out well ^_^

And remeber, if your ever in need of a promotion, assasins are always he answer. They can intimidate, threaten, and even "dispose" of those ahead of you :)

I would ambush hug you agian, but you would be expecting it... so i'll wait... :ph43r:


*normal hugs*
