I get all sentimental nowadays, thinking of how things used to be when I was younger vs now. And suddenly this meme popped up on millsnill's lj, how are you now vs how you were 5 years ago. Naturally I had to take it.
I still feel bad that I don't have a job. Turns out its really hard to get a job at a cafe without a barrista certificate, and it's nearly impossible to get a job as a reseptionist without experience so meet Martine: a bachelor in history and the only jobs I'm really capable of doing are in retail. I feel really bad actually, but I'll try not to rain on your parade too much. Soon I'll have some sort of job, I'm sure, and then I'll be able to pay rent and buy that computer and eat well. It'll work out.
