welcome! I figured instead of swamping you with emails, you could check me out on a blog. That way it is up to YOU to stay updated:-) I swear my life could be a tv show but a blog will have to do (if it gets too creepy...ill close it down)
Living:
Well I arrived a little over a week ago and staying in Coogee beach. I have been "apartment sitting" for Jimmy, a kid that is studying abroad from UMD. They are away in New Zealand so it worked out very well.
I spent the week and a half looking for places to move and had a short term offer come up through a friend. So, instead of rushing into a place, I will be staying there.
Job:
My first night that I arrived I was heading to WTC (work travel company. They sponsored my VISA) I stopped into a dance, pilates, fitness club (www.vclub.com.au) and I gave them my resume. Within the hour, they called me to cover a pilates class THAT NIGHT. I received a staff card and have been taking dance classes there! Pretty cool. I taught ballet also a few days later. One night after jazz/funk, I started talking to the teacher, Michelle. We hit it off and exchanged numbers. Well within the past week we started looking for places together! So dont fret fam, I wont be living with an asian male. It will be cool to live with an Aussie girl...and an amazing dancer at that!
I also have been handing in my resume to places and actually had a trial run at a place called The Ivy (www.merivale.com/#/ivy/ivyroom). They said they want to hire me but I am waiting to get my tax file number to fill out paper work.
I have an intership opportunity with a marketing firm that actually does marketing for tourism in Las Vegas (of all places lol) However, it is not paid. But it could be a good place to get my foot in the door and a place to go when im not working but am in the city.
Tomorrow night I am working at the Final Rugby game. (like our superbowl) WTC is like an agent for jobs so they called me for this one.
Slowly but surely making progress.
To be continued...
NO WORRIES~ CHEERS
