Friday has no meaning anymore
Since my graduation on the 21st of December 05 I am jobless. I had one job interview so far but they took another candidate. It's pretty bad to be in competition with 2 people I spent most of my time with the last 3 years and 3 months. We even went into the same class, lived in the same dorm.
I've been to the "Job Agency" (<- that's supposed to be the new and modern image of the damn employment office). They told me to bring about a thousand documents to prove my former employments. I sent them to my former employers but it takes time and I won't get any money from the Job Agency before I give them in... The Social Welfare Office told me they couldn't pay me money because I had an entitlement at the Job Agency which comes first. Great. I wasted a lot of time at offices the last weeks. I wonder if I didn't have a boyfriend with a job... Who'd pay the rent?
I talked to the Job Management Center of my former employer who still tries to find a job for me. Maybe there will be something free in February. I have to call them next Wednesday because right now the person who is responsible for the employment is ill. And what if she is still ill next Wednesday? What if she's ill for the whole next year? Won't there be any new employments and no firing?
I feel pretty much useless and helpless and lifeless... I'm nearly through with my whole appartment, I even scrubbed the ceiling of the bathroom yesterday! I feel grey. And all days are the same: free. Friday has no meaning anymore because all my days are free, I don't have to wait for the weekend for freetime. I always have freetime. Wonderful? Well, normally yes but not if you need money and don't know if you get a job again.
My boyfriend and I stopped smoking on the 1st of January. I'm really proud of him (and me, of course) for doing this and doing it together.

And don't let the job thing get you down - it hasn't been that long, really. Just - if you really *do* have free time, go do some stuff you wanted to do! Like museums or parks or just walking around window shopping.
Catch up on books, learn to knit, whatever! Things will change soon, promise!
*smooch*
*hugs*

Also, I think it's great that you and your boyfriend have quit smoking. Good for both of you! And it's nice that you're doing it together - moral support, and all that. :)
I've finally finished the buttons you asked for. I apologize profusely that it took me so long to get them to you. That problem with my computer that I mentioned turned out to be a lot more serious that I had originally anticipated, and I was without a computer while it was getting fixed.
Anyway, I hope you like them well enough. I couldn't seem to recreate the TSUS button, so I came up with an entirely different visual concept for it, which I hope isn't a problem, but I did manage to somewhat recreate the previously named "Sun" button. Here they are:
They're both fairly simple. If there's anything about them that you aren't fond of and would like changed, just let me know. I'd rather take the time to fix them than have you secretly dislike them for the duration of their existence. ;)
Talk to you soon, hun.
P.S. - I tried e-mailing you with the buttons first, but, lo and behold, my e-mail account was acting all wonky. I tell ya, I have the worst luck when it comes to anything electronic. You're probably wondering what my point is, which would be that if you don't want these buttons sitting around in your comments, go ahead and delete this one once you've saved them. I won't think you have a personal vendetta against me or anything.
P.P.S. - I hope I didn't just come across as pompous or anything, giving you permission to delete my comment from your own journal. I was just worried that you wouldn't even if you wanted to. My paranoia seems to be showing.
