Update on the job hunting front. Well, zero. Or else you'd have seen a squeeing post somewhere along the line, as you can imagine :-) The last replies I got - whenever I do get a reply, which usually just doesn't happen, and how I hate that, when they don't give any kind of answers - told me that my background and profile were interesting even if it didn't get me any appointment. Still, the very last reply I received - ie today - said that they'd keep in contact because said profile did interest them and if something new came up, they'd get back to me. Not that I'm expecting anything per se, but it's still nice to know.

I mean, as I see it, I can either look at the negative side, ie still no job so what do I care if they did find my CV interesting, or look at the positive side, ie at least a couple of those negative answers mentioned that my profile was interesting and so maybe one of these days I'm gonna interest someone enough that they want to give me my chance *nods*

Unrelated now. I went to see P.S. I Love You with [livejournal.com profile] moimoietmoi on Saturday and aww but I loved it! I'm such a sucker for that kind of stories. I mean, I'm always talking about dark fics and how the darker the better, but I also happen to be a marshmallow inside so give me a love comedy anytime and I'll just be gone! And P.S. I Love You was just the sweetest and so touching and funny and just, yeah, really sweet.

And don't even get me started on Jeffrey Dean Morgan's character. Omg! Most adorable, cutest, sweetest and sexiest character ever! Dude! ♥ ♥ Also having JDM stay alive till the end of the story was quite a nice change! Lol

I also really enjoyed the soundtrack. Which, incidentally, I'm listening to the atm. I mean, the torrent was there, you know?

Changing the subject again; I had no idea Moonlight would be so easy to pimp. I mean, I pimped it to [livejournal.com profile] crazybutsound first, with success. Then on Friday, Sam and I watched the first two episodes and she liked it enough to want to see the rest. So that's two successful pimping stories for a little show that is far from being stellar but which, yeah, is entertaining and all kinds of fun.

I also realised that I was still behind with that show so I caught up with it and, dude, being French, 1x12 really cracked me up. Next time I watch a documentary on the Revolution, I'll have a thought for Moonlight, promise ;-)

Just to prove it does happen sometimes, I applied for a job with Company B once. Didn't get the job. They said they'd keep my CV on file. I thought "yeah, whatever. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt". However, some time further down the line, they did contact me again and I got a job with said company.

So, fingers crossed that one of them will get back to you :hugs:

I admire your courage for quitting a job without having found another one first or at least having the prospect of one. I wouldn't be that brave. There are too few jobs free these days :(

That's very nice of you to say, but I don't see any kind of bravery in the act, myself... it was just circumstances that made take that decision.

Still, thanks :-)

*crosses fingers for you on the job front*

And good on you for being positive. :D

Also, I am now seriously considering watching Moonlight, too. ;)

Another one maybe falling for Moonlight? Sweet!

good luck on the job front. it's awesome that you're staying positive.

and oh man, moonlight! i keep waffling on that show. i want to watch because, well, VAMPIRES -- never gets old -- but less that stellar, like you said, and i'm awful at keeping up with shows. so much eye candy though! :x

Thank you :-)

Moonlight is a lot of fun and there's a nice quota of pretty, too, let's not forget that lol And I just read that there should be new episodes shot now that the strike is over. Nice *g*

You know you've got my good luck vibes job wise coming your way.

PS I Love You was so good!

I'm always talking about dark fics and how the darker the better, but I also happen to be a marshmallow inside
Yes! That's me too!

Also, Moonlight is so awesome, in a very non awesome way, if you get what I mean.

I kinda know but it's always good to hear :-)

PS I Love You was so good!

Wasn't it just? And wasn't JDM's character the CUTEST thing ever?

Yes! That's me too!

How surprising... not! lol

Also, Moonlight is so awesome, in a very non awesome way, if you get what I mean.

I have to second that. And did you see? We'll get some more new episodes of Moonlight, after all \o/

I did see! I was so worried that Moonlight would die due to the strike. Really, I've spent this week scouring the net to see when new episodes of all my shows will arrive.

Not that I've missed them or anything...ahem.
