I'm still on the hunt for a job, and like anyone who's been on the active search for a while, I'm getting really frustrated with the lack of positive responses I'm getting. I've finally gotten in touch with my ex-boss (who'd I've been in constant contact with through email up to maybe 2-3 months ago), and she's now prepared should any prospective employer of mine decide to give her a buzz to find out how big of a skiver I was at work. :D It sucks too cos the job I had before my stint with this ex-boss is pretty much non-existant now; the outlet of the coffeeshop franchaise I worked at is no longer around, and as far as I know; the manager I was under has quit and I have no clue where she is now. So, I'm rather stint on the referees' list. Plus, my visa-type is a little unusual, so employers would probably go for someone who's a citizen or a PR than have to deal with the little-known. *shakes fist*
So in between sending out applications with CVs attached and waiting for replies, I've been sewing stuff for the girls. And now with Kenn-chan's arrival, I've been having so much more ideas on what dresses to make next. I've always wanted a redhead in the family (I lusted over a PWP when I first got into Blythes, but never did own one), and now I've got one (and she's a Kenner to boot!), so I'm over the moon. Plus, all the trial and error with my sewing is good in two sense: I'm brushing up on my skills so hopefully I can start selling stuff to the dolly community and not feel worried that the hem might come undone; and the rejects are still happily lapped up by my girls at home. :)
