Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life. ~Confucius

Now I don't believe there is a job that anyone can love through and through which they would rather go to than stay cosy in bed...but there has to be something close. That is what is keeping me up. I tols myself I'd have an early night and get an early start on my dissertation. However, I started thinking about jobs.

So now I'm restless.

I started thinking of all the things I want to learn. There are so many language courses I want to do and the truth is, if I'm still working where I am now doing the 3pm-8pm shift 4 nights a week, I'll never be able to do any.
Now I know what you're thinking. I haven't finished my MA yet. That's true but I after that, I won't be learning anything else and I don't have two lifetimes to afford to cram what I want in to. I have just one.

I need a job that gives me evenings free so I can take the courses I want to take. I don't expect to absolutely love a job but I want one I can at the very least like. I want a job where I'm valued; it doesn't rule my life (mainly so I can dedicate my free time to the courses I want to do) and maybe something that is just a bit creative - maybe.

I need to get doing work experience, internships or something. I need to keep looking. This is my 70th blog and I have less than 70 days before the start of September which is not only my dissertation is due but also when I'm aiming to be doing something else.
