So, it's been a week now since I've moved back home to Toronto! What an eventful week it has been, too! Things are going surprisingly well for me here in the city. For example, two days in to my unresting job search, I landed an interview. I now have two more. One's for a position in Marketing/Advertising and the other as a stylist at a high-end retail store. Things are looking pretty promising thus far.
I went horseback riding on Tuesday morning! What an adventure that was! I rode a big horse named Romeo. I never realised how terrifying horses are, actually. I loved spending time with this one because he was calm and didn't make any sudden movements. So I did some chores, brought ponies outside to pens, fed them and groomed Romeo. Then I finally got to hop on and ride a horse for the first time in my life. I think I did pretty well!
My job interview went really well, too. It was the same day and I had about 40 minutes to get ready for it. After I managed to do that, I arrived 15 minutes early and filled out some forms while I waited for the manager outside the store. I was really nervous at this point, but when she finally came out to greet me, all of it went away and I slipped into interview mode. She asked me some pretty typical questions, some were hard and some were a breeze. Before I go into too much detail here, I should explain that I actually applied for a stock position because it promises more hours. However what I didn't know was that it made less money than the part-time stylist position. So she told me I would do well working as a stylist because I have a firm grasp on fashion. I obviously accepted the invitation and we continued with the interview for about 45 minutes. I think I made an excellent impression because she called me about an hour later to tell me my second interview was Tuesday with the store's supervisor.
Today, I'm doing absolutely nothing while waiting for my sister to come home from work. I borrowed the first season of Lost from my friend and once my sister gets home, we are going to see fireworks at Centennial park (something I did every year when I lived here before). So for anyone who is asking, I'm doing better than fine. I'm enjoying myself thoroughly and I would appreciate a text or e-mail once in a while :P
I hope everyone in Kitchener is doing alright without me (not that I'm doubting that).
I will try to neglect this a little less in the future. I'm hoping to start working by next week if one of the jobs takes me in. Until then, Have a fabulous Canada Day!
Love Love.
