Life in general.
Tuesday, November 15th, 2005A lot of things are happening in my life right now, which I won’t get into that much right now. Our first project pretty much blew for me, so I’m hoping the second one will be better. I’m working all weekends at the cinema, which means my social life might be suffering a little. Not much, since student nights are usually during the week anyway, but I always have to decline going somewhere on Friday, as I mostly get in at 9.30 on Saturdays. I love working at the cinema, but I hate having to do 12h long shifts. But I guess it’s alright, since I’m getting paid for it.
So, I have bought my tickets back to Finland. Cost me almost £200 pounds. It would’ve cost me only £170, if I hadn’t had to transfer money from Finland to my English account. I got my tickets online, so the card I paid with had to be issued in the country of departure for security reasons. Well, during those few days it took to transfer the money, the price for the ticket home went from £85 to £110. I was a bit upset about this, but there was nothing I could do anymore about it but live with it. Besides, it means I get to go home, and on a cruise to Stockholm with my sister.
So it is confirmed, I am going to New York in February. It will cost me £545 pounds, but I think it’ll be so worth it. I really don’t know anyone of those that are going, but I’m not gonna let it bother me - it’s New York! Even if I have to go alone. I’ll probably go to most of the exhibitions the tutors have in mind to go to, so I won’t be completely alone. I’m a bit excited, though I know this will entirely mess up my budget. I can afford it barely, but I’ll have a tough time after wards to get back on track. For once I’m really glad I’m working. I’ll just take one more shifts to earn extra money.
What else…I think this is all I have to say. I can’t think of anything I could add, anyway.
