Update

Journal Entry: Tue Jun 30, 2009, 1:27 AM
Hello
Hey everyone.

It's been ages since I've made an update here so I figure it's time to break the silence.


What's Happened
Well I've been here in Wombat (just outside of Young) since March, and a fair bit has happened since moving here.

Firstly, I am back on the job hunt and work for the dole.

The job market down here is tougher than getting blood from a stone, I mean there is work here, but just getting a foot in the door is where everyone seems to be failing.

For Work For The Dole, I'm working in the local Cinema and Radio Station. Both are operated by the local Arts Council, which is all volunteer based so it's quite interesting. I'm having fun doing this, mainly when I'm in the cinema.

I have been back on air with the radio station, but thanks to some changes both in the licence conditions it's subject to, and certain people's attitudes, I'll be quitting it soon.


And...?
And..? And I've gotten my L's back, no point in leaving them for too long or else I'll never get them, no matter how much I complain in the future.

I've been looking at getting back into some old projects that I've neglected for months (or years depending). These include my stories, constructing a remote-controlled monster truck and of course, websites :).

As for this account, I'm going to be going through and cleaning out all my oldest deviations, my old poems or works I don't like I'll scrap (not delete, just move into scraps) and just leave the ones I'd like to keep readily available to you all here.


Rant Time
Well time for my rant... CENTRELINK!!!!!

For those who don't reside in Australia, Centrelink is our government's variant of social security, and trust me, anyone, and I mean anyone who has to deal with them will soon learn the true meaning of annoyance and frustration.

Anyway, they've recently undergone massive restructuring in terms of procedures and programs, which affects anyone who is claiming unemployment benefits, especially those who are on Work For The Dole as I am.

Before, we were given one person to report to in regards to what we do, now, because of this restructuring, some places that employ said people have closed and as such, we have to be assigned new people to report to, and it's just frustrating, especially if the new person we're assigned to is new to being the 'go to' person and is learning their way around. I have yet to be reassigned, but I know that I will be as my previous 'go to' person has lost her previous position and has been re-employed by a new place which I am not registered at.


Important News!
Well now for the most important news of this entry. Since starting at the Cinema, I've met a nice young lady who is now (and has been since soon after our meeting) my partner. We've been together for about 6 weeks now, and I have enjoyed every moment together with her and I love her dearly.

Her name is Linda, and due to certain circumstances she has been living here with me for the past month. It's been really great having her near, and it's even better that we're both into the same things, my parents often go into shock when they think of our similarities pertaining to our interests.

Anyway, she's also a writer and an artist, and you can catch her here as :iconfantomodrako:

I LOVE YOU LINDA! :glomp:


Ideas and All Else
Well that's it for now, but before I go this time, I've got an idea to start recording hourly podcasts of random music, like my radio show currently is, and also releasing a series of podcasts called "Tech Talk", computer talk for the common person, mainly about purchasing, maintenance and FAQs. I'll be putting up a poll after this in order to gain your approval/disapproval of them.

Later everyone! :)

Since technology hates me at the moment, I'll have to come back here at a later date to check out your work.

If you can't tell who this is, I'm going to make it my personal mission to torment you at the cinema on Thursday! :evillaugh:

:iconfantomodrako:
...I have not abducted you. :paranoid: Your sanity, possibly, but I'm sure that any aliens out there would call first dibs.

Of course, then I'd have to borrow one of your swords to fight them off... :katana:
