Alas, 'tis time for some life updates, n'est-ce pas?
Real quick, as my internet connection barely exists, I'd like to fill ya'll in on what's happening in life.
Firstly, I'm still seriously unemployed. I'm talking... no babysitting jobs, not even a job scooping ice cream (which we all know is my true trade). It's been pretty rough on me, to be honest. I've sent out countless resumés, contacted tons of alumni, and just networked until I could network no more. As of today, I've had two interviews... which, is fairly depressing.
Perhaps I'm really full of myself, but I think that my profile is rather unique. Afterall, I do have a French bachelors, plus I speak English, and I have some pretty weighty internship experience... so why am I not getting hired? Oh, right, because the economy SUCKS.
As of right now, the game plan is to find a job, and stay in Paris.
I wish I had more updates to give you... but I lead a rather boring life. I sleep in late (because I can... mwahaha), eat something, putz around my studio, apply to some jobs, go outside, wander, see my friends, and most likely have a drink. Let's just say that happy hour has become my favorite kind of hour. And no, not just because of the alcohol... I really enjoy the whole atmosphere of happy hour. People are tired, getting out of work, and just want to kick back and have a nice drink. It's like a mini-thanksgiving every day! Sitting around a table with loved ones, and giving thanks to all that surrounds you. Plus, since I lead a rather solitary lifestyle, being with my friends during this time is quite a treat.
Even though I'm not doing much with my life, I still really, and I mean REALLY, love this city.
That's all for now. I suppose I'll write when I'm a little more inspired.
bisous
