I haven't gotten around to looking into the nail binder or watching videos, but I'm planning on doing that tomorrow. What I have been up to for the last few days, apart from making a jelly pudding in the shape of a gummy bear, is searching the internet for jobs and translating my CV.
The translation was fairly easy, and I let Boyfriend read it through, but we sent it to his dad anyway for further scrutiny. I'm still waiting for a reply, even though he said he'd look at it today.
In case you're wondering, job hunting fairly sucks without a degree. Even those not requiring at least a bachelor require that you studied Economics in high school. I did Latin-Sciences. It seemed like a pretty solid combo at the time. What it does is make you a jack of all trades, master of none in the eyes of employers, it seems.
So for my many hours and hours of searching, there's two job offers that I might be suitable for so far. One fits me to a tee, the other not quite, but I'm willing to learn, dammit. I'd like to send them an e-mail, but I'm not sure if my CV is good enough, so I can't. Bummer.
It'd also help if I had, say, any clue where these places were, but one chose to remain anonymous for some reason and the other looks to be a company with several sites. They both say they're in Coburg, so in theory I should be able to get there on my bike.
In the mean while, the weather in Coburg remains glorious. After the rains of last weekend, there's been only one vague threat of rain clouds in the distance, but they skulked off as soon as W. lent us an umbrella. The sun is shining its happy little heart out. Biking weather has been excellent, and I've been so enthused about it, I'm dreaming about my very own bike computer to see how far I'm actually going. True, it'll probably end with me disappointed, but a girl can dream.
And tonight, of course, it's football again. Boyfriend and I looked it up out of sheer curiosity. Something about a quarter or half final. The conclusion was that we'd see the last of it at the latest next week. Even if I have a little German flag happily flapping away on my bike, I'll be glad to see the end of the honking in the middle of the night. Tonight's even a schoolnight, but football fans seem to know no respect for children's (or my) night's rest. They didn't last time, anyway. Who knows, Germany could lose. Boyfriend has predicted blissful quiet for the night should it occur.
Inbetween searching, Boyfriend and I did groceries. I might just be in love with the freezers at the supermarket. They stock cheap popsicles. And frozen elements for dinner. Tonight, we're eating schnitzel shaped like dinosaurs.
