Still Fighting the Mediocre Fight

First of all, a mildly late Happy New Year and Merry Christmas to all.

Good morning everyone, well hopefully you are having a good morning, I have work in two hours. Still working in the call centre so none to happy, although have been trained to do remote access, which involves taking control of the customers machine and using a chat programme which is way more interesting than taking calls. Hopefully I will get to use that a bit more, if they need more agents working on remote access.

My quest for employment elsewhere is going poorly, I can’t find anything at all right now and all the jobs I have applied for have rejected my applications.

I am making every attempt to get back into my writing, after a dear friend of mine bought me a fantastic Christmas present. She did panic thinking she hadn’t spent enough, it was a sketch book. However she had gone through each page and filled out a guide for me to write notes on the life and background of Kennedy Wiess, one of my characters. To be completely honest, it was the sweetest gift anyone has ever given me and I do not want to let her down.

My car is unfortunately out of commission right now so travel is a pain for me, having to rely on my brother or parents. Luckily I work with my brother so travel to work is okay, however he has an MOT booked this month so I will have to fix my car pronto. I know the general problem, the alarm system is draining the battery. The thing is I’ve had to jump start it so many times its possible the battery is now broken too, the car looses charge if I don’t use it every four to five hours.

Well then, enough from me. I’d best go and have some breakfast before I earn my pittance.

Take care everyone, and all the best in 2008.

Not dead yet

Okay so I am a poor blogger, I created one post and then nothing for a year.

So right now, its 00:41 and couting, I’m in my lonely room and counting down the moments until I once again enter perdition. That means I’m going to work, and I am not a fan of my current job.

I work in a technical support call centre, I wont mention the company (recent news saw a lady fired for mocking her employers in a blog) but needless to say its tedious and annoying. Not to mention underpayed, and poor working hours is a vast understatement. My already limited social life suffers greatly.

I’m applying about though, pimping myself out to any half decently payed IT role that has humaine working hours and is a little closer to home, hopefully I’ll find something that will allow me more time to focus on my writing.

I do need to focus on that some more, so many great (I’m modest, aren’t I?) ideas and no time or engery to get them on virtual paper. Not much for using the pen, unless its to draw. Some might say “paper is safer, you can’t loose it then”, tell that to my GCSE art project that literally lost itself to the winds. A faulty little clasp on my folder, a strong gust of wind, and 2 years work became airborn litter and lined the puddles and muddy path on the way to school. Pleased I was not.

Well thats some brief, pointless insight into me on this brisk October night. I am going to go and sleep now, hopefully have an escapist dream that will become reality. I actually drempt I quit my job the other day, I woke up happier than ever until a few seconds later, when the realisation kicked in that I had work in 2 hours. Cést la vis.

Goodnight ladels and jellyspoons, sleep tight!

Another year…

Another boring blog for you all to read and ignore! Kidding, hopefully this will be a semi-intresting romp for us all to enjoy.
Firstly though, Happy New Year to you all! I still have an hour or so of January the first left, so I will virtualy “pinch punch” all of you. No returns.

Theres an about me section on here somewhere, I’ve added some trype on there that should let you know the kind of person I am. Simply put though I’m the nice guy, I finish last and I try to keep all my friends happy.
I am (like most bloggers) in a “where do I go from here?” state of mind at present, I’m recently unemployed (all be it that I only had a Christmas temporary job in Game anyway) but it was a bit sooner and more sudden then I’dve like it to be. Tommorow I plan on sending my C.V to the local newspaper, try my hand there and see what my A grade in media A level will gain me. Probably serving tea and cleaning up biscuit crumbs but a starts a start.

I’m also trying to get back into drawing. I’m not very good but it seems I can upload some images here so perhaps soon you’ll see some of my doodles.

Must dash now I’m afraid, M.S.N friends to talk with and all that. Still, hopefully I’ll keep up this blogging milarkie and make some friends. Take care people!
