After the initial panic about temporary unemployment passed, I became a lot more relaxed about the situation. Perhaps a little too relaxed. The classifieds are full of sales and street jobs that don't appeal to me, Kelly Services has probably forgotten about me, and schools don't seem to need any more relief teachers.
Anyway, does anyone know anyone who might want some tuition? I am a straight A student who may or may not know anything about teaching and is desperate for some income to fund a very costly trip to China from May to June. Besides, I'm sick of having to rely on unreliable parental units for extra funds. A measure of financial independence would be very welcome, especially when it comes to miscellaneous expenses like bicycles, braces, books, DVDs, mega out-of-country experiences...
Revisiting some of my old obsessions to keep unnecessary angst at bay. I'm
amazed at the sheer amount of time, energy and notebook paper I used to lavish on such things. The geek factor had fallen off quite a bit since I had entered JC (and was virtually non-existent for the middle part of last year), but now it's picking up again, thanks to a surplus of spare time.
