I've moved in

So I've moved into a shared house with 4 people I don't know, 3 guys and a girl. Its interesting, this is the first time I've ended up living with people I really have no idea about at all, but the house is relatively new (1 year old), clean (which a lot I saw weren't) and close to work (15 minute walk). Its also rent through an agency that manages a pile of houses in this city, and will move you to a new house if it doesn't work out. Here is a picture of the house and the advert.
I'm really excited about the new job, but for now I think I'll go explore the area a bit, and pick up a little something for breakfast.

Positive feedback at last!

Yesterday I went to Norwich for an interview with a sales and marketing firm, and today at 10 o'clock they called me and said they want me to come back for a full day interview on Thursday (they called as I was brushing my teeth of course). While I was in Norwich having lunch, and beer, after my interview I got a call about another position that I had applied for, asking if I could do a telephone interview at 2 o' clock today! So finally I feel as if I atleast have a chance at getting a job, and the sales and marketing one looks like a lot of fun, they only represent top brands, like American Express etc in the following industries:

• Telecommunication and energy industry specific customer acquisition
• Charity subscription building
• Sports, leisure and entertainment customer acquisition
• Event marketing, specialising in the financial services sector

I took a cab from the train station when I went for the interview yesterday, and had a great cabbie, very chatty and full of funny stories, he put me in just the right mood for the interview.

It was a nice early birthday present, probably the only one I'll get until my Mom come over at the end of March (my birthday is tomorrow) so maybe I should write all those thank you cards for xmas that I've been putting off tomorrow.

Sadly this sloppy drunk on a cheap bottle of wine one night is the most recent picture of me I have, maybe it'll scare off the strangers. I'm brunette now for a change though.

So now you tell me...

Today I discovered that people other than Tay and Steve read this, so I guess I should be better about updating it.

So today I got up, took a shower, spent 5 hours searching and applying for jobs, 5 minutes talking to Jon, 50 seconds talking to Jeff, and opened an all time low number of rejections for jobs (1 just in case you care, but it was on nice stationary). Now you know why I don't post very often.

Since I get to say what I want, which is rare, most people who know me probably don't know this, but I rarely say what I want to, I think I care too much for people who used to be important to me. I like the fact that I've remained friends with almost everyone who I used to date, but there is one who means a whole lot more than the others, he found out his girlfriend was cheating on him and confronted her last night. I hate it when he's unhappy, and he's been unhappy since he left X, but there isn't anything I can do about it, I'm not sure I would if I could actually, its his life, his choices. I don't know how it ended up, I just hope he's ok, and that he finally gets out.

Now for fun stuff, the pictures of London that I've been meaning to post since November or so. First Trafalgar Square:
Nelson's statue in Trafalgar Square, he was 5'6", his column is 151', I think he might be overcompensating for more than just his stature.
Fountains around the base of the column.
I think the pigeons can read and the tourists probably can't, the reason this worked to reduce the pigeon population is beacause they all felt unwanted and went to live with the ducks, geese and swans in Hyde Park, where they get fed everyday.
The London Eye, from across the Thames, I didn't go on it, but I did go for a boat tour of the river, which I recommend if you're in London, 6GBP for as many boat trips as you want all day, between Tower Bridge and the Parliament Buildings.
A very unimpressive view of the Tower of London, I think this is the point where my camera batteries ran out. It is really expensive to go in, but worth it. If you go, do so in the morning because there is enough in there to keep you occupied for a week, and definately go look at the crown jewels (no photography allowed though)
