Not my fault!

[fadagaski]

I am innocent in all of this. Innocent!

See, I'm job-hunting, naturally. And, naturally, it's slim pickings here in the UK. But the websites I'm using to look also have international job listings. And I've been here in England for 2 weeks tomorrow, which is about my standard time frame before I'm jetting off somewhere new and exciting. So, naturally, I have been looking at international job opportunities including, but not limited to, being a Content Writer for CNN International in the UAE and a Trainee Technical Author for Reuters in France. Chances of making it past first stage to either are 694248 to 1 against, but there you go. And then, naturally, I re-stumbled upon the Working Holiday Visa to Australia and New Zealand, and yes, I am VERY VERY VERY tempted. So tempted that if nothing of interest happens by May, then I know where I'll be heading.

But it's not my fault! I blame my mother.

OMG that is brilliant. *_*

[fadagaski.livejournal.com]

Pretty much, yeah. ^_^

Can I totally steal your idea? Because that sounds like a very good way to spend my summer. XD

... Working Holiday Visa is a once in a lifetime opportunity to spend up to two years in Australia. Think long and hard about using it just for the summer.

[inmemorybound.livejournal.com]

Well, I never meant this summer or necessarily only the summer -- more like I'd look into it next summer when I don't have uni and money to worry over, and when I could choose to stay as long as I felt I wanted to within the timeframe it allows. Apart from the initial funds, I totally need some indepent living experience first, which is one of my goals for mid-late 2009. XD

But then, I am terrible with explaining myself? :3

[fadagaski.livejournal.com]

Well that's alright then. I mean, of course, if you wanna just go for summer work then who am I to stop you? ^_^

[inmemorybound.livejournal.com]

ROFL XD

Sounds like a brilliant plan to me. I am very tempted to steal your idea after I finish Uni over here. Mmm...Australia. Last time I was there, I was 7, but I remember I loved it for the six months I lived there...
