The job hunt continues!

It's depressing being unemployed.  Even with a volunteer hob I still have too much time.  I've started too spend all my time finding things to do (Not that that is in any way difficult.)

Now I spotted a interesting job ad today: Blogger for Grads.co.uk.  What better think for an unemployed graduate student to do: Blog for a student blog!  Sounds great.  Let's start the how-tos

How to collude your way through your degree
How to wring the most out of your university
Beating the system - knowing your rights
Employment - what's a graduate to do

I could keep going on.

The absolute worse part is I would be good at it.  I spend most of my time writing these days.  I write applications.  I write cover letters.  I write emails.  Then when I'm really BORED I write fiction. Yay!

It get's better.  My creative writing blog is quite popular, given it's been in existence for all of a month.

Let's face it.  I would be perfect for the role (Ego deflating pin ready, Sir!).

Bet peanuts would be generous pay.

You know you are a student when...

When you can't afford not to be working on one assessment or the other.
When you can't afford to spend anything outside of bills or you might not make it through summer.
When you see more of you computer than you do your partner.
When you panic and seize the nearest piece of paper to jot down an inspiration.
When you begin to write/type in coffee chains, buses, bus stops and even work.
When coffee seems like a cure-all.
When the easiest way to socialise is to convince people they really want to go out drinking.
And finally,
When you realise that most of the people you work with are poorly under-educated about their jobs.
