Don't worry about signing up for threadless if you havent allready, just post some feedback in here. Give me some serious feedback and tear em apart if you want to.

NEW JOB!

2 min read
So i usually avoid bloggy things in here and keep the journal entrys mostly art related but i had to shout this one. A lot of uni friends read this so its mostly for you guys

About this time last year i quit my crappy cleaning job of 3 years following an offer from a local cafe. I was trained and told that rosters hadnt been organised yet but soon we would have solid schedules. For the minute wed be called a day or two in advanced for each shift. I got a call for one shift, then another and then... then they never called again. I sms'd my boss a couple of times and she eventually politely suggested i look for another job. Technically im still employed there i think...

Since then ive been looking for a new job and have applied and applied and been interviewed a couple of times. A lot of these were somehow in the retail sector and well i just wasnt going to trim up for some shitty cinema gig or whatever else it was. There were a couple of exciting opportunites for things like photoshop work that fell through as well. It was really starting to be a little too much.

But, last novemberish i applied for tutoring and lab positions at uni to teach a subject i took that year. I got an interview with a self professed "non-academic but judge of your natural teaching skills." The actual lecturer of the subject had told me he was delighted to hear i was applying, the interviewer sent back a 6 out of 10 score full of negative commentary. I kinda figured i wasnt getting the job and spent my holidays failing other applications.

Untill now, today i checked my email and found out i got it!!!!! Its subject to a couple of conditions like student numbers and my availibility (against my own study timetable) but ive been offered 3 lab positions and a tutor position. Thats 6 hours work a week for a total of $168 per week! I havent had money in so long... its a bit daunting.

Im so fucking excited... im getting so drunk tonight.

About that art

2 min read
Ive put it up now, thats most of it. I mean theres some stuff like moodboards and whatever that ive also been doing for uni but i dunno if thats really appropriate for DA as it were. I might upload some shots of the level i made for our UT2k4 mod as well when i can be bothered to chop it together.

So unis over for the 1st year (minus one presentation i have to give on thursday) and some of it i was pleased with and some of it unexpectedly really disapointed me but all in all im still glad im doing what im doing. Like, i wouldnt really be doing anything else anyway.

Trying to get a job for the holidays so i have some money for games and going out and the like since i havent really had that for a while. No doubt this will involve something menial and boring but money is money i suppose.

There might even be some new art up soon thats not uni work, i really want to get my digital painting of shavo done.

Im playing company of heroes at the moment, unless your someone whose 100% against the RTS genre i highly recomend you check it out, its just a totally solid game (and im not even a big RTS fan).
