Prologue to history

… except for waiting to hear back about job applications.  The Toronto employer I was interested in emailed me back (I sent in a cover letter and CV at the end of February) this week to ask me what my schedule was like but didn’t explicitly offer me a job.  The made a follow-up call (to follow up on the e-mail no one responded to) to the Montreal employer I’m interested in and they told me they’d let me know by the end of the week or the beginning of next week at the latest.  I guess I’m looking forward to Tuesday since it’s already the end of the work week.  Tuesday also happens to be the date of my last exam, so I guess I’m looking forward to that too.  I hope whichever job I take is worth it, though I suppose in the weighing of employment vs. nothing, what’s “worth it” is probably obvious.

New links are to Alex’s blog and my own fansite for my favourite director.  I had dinner with some of my Korean cinema classmates, my prof, and his wife last week.  It was nice and makes me want to take the Korean studies summer course offered just so I can hang out with all of them for another month or so, but that also depends on job apps and summer anxiety.  Umm.. yea.  My life is boring.  3-year program friends are graduating so I’d like to be in Montreal for a while just to hang out with them.  But for now it’s exam time and I think I’m working days enough so that I’m falling asleep during Radio Netherlands on CBC Radio Overnight despite my love for it.  I’m working out, which is supposed to raise energy levels, but maybe I’m just getting sleepy and messing my left leg.  Who knows?  I hope I lose weight.  I tried on a dress today at Space FB and it was pretty but I still have weight to lose.  This is a terrible paragraph, I know.  And then I try to eat vegetables but I’m too lazy to even eat carrots so thank gods for cucumbers.

I hope to be in Toronto for some time at the end of the month.  Maybe I will see the Born Ruffians with Annie.  They were on Skins, which is where we both first heard of them.  I’ve only been listening to Peter Bjorn & John’s Writer’s Block and The Go! Team’s Proof of Youth lately because the former is perfect for this weather and the latter is perfect for a half hourish workout with breaks.  I wish I led a more interesting life.  Let’s hope that comes this summer.  If not, I’ll read more books or something.  I have a few waiting for me.
