Well, today's a slow moving day, took a nap in the aftern even, felt a lil dreary, think am gettin quite worried with regards to our job finding situation. Oh, I forgot to mention yesterday that we met up with Ivan's cousin whose in-laws are in Perth, and she's in town for a visit and to attend a wedding. :) Ivan haven't met her in 5 years while it was my first time meeting her. It was nice juz chatting and knowing that we are not the onli ones trying to find work, and finding it difficult to do so... it was comforting listening to her sharings on her experiences and all, at one time she even resorted to being a zoo-keeper but left after a few months as she felt she could not take the long tiring hours. It's quite sad that only the very specialized occupations get cherished over here, whereas everyone else just have to rough it out first from the start, perhaps that's where we are headed too.
Well, Ivan had a meet-up with a recruitment agency today, although there was no potential work opportunity but it sure was a fruitful time as the guy, also a fellow Singaporean, shared tips and all with Ivan. As I'm typing this, Ivan is already warm and snuggled under the covers; he woke real early this morning for the meet-up.
Well, we just watched the movie, "Pursuit of Happyness" on tellie just, was quite an inspiring show of pursuing your dreams and roughing it out before enjoying the fruit of one's labour. Seems quite fitting advice for us at this point of our lives you reckon? :)
