3 Week In...

I have now been living in Toronto for 3 weeks. Wow. It feels like longer. And yet also like it has flown by. It's funny how that happens.

Three weeks in... and I am employed. I accepted a full time position at Elmwood Spa yesterday.* I stumbled upon a job fair on craigslist for Elmwood held at the Holiday Inn on September 19th.

To be honest when I first got there,

I thought: 'There is no way I am going to get a job here. This will probably be a waste of my time'.

As I was interviewed at first I was unsure of how it would go I was nervous. Stumbling on my words. Coming up with answers that I was sure made no sense. But the woman liked me. And so I was sent to interview number two.

I felt this interview went the same way. But the man assured me they would check my references and get back to me.

I asked reluctently: "How long?"
He Replied: "As soon as your references reply"


Well folks I don't know who they chose to call. But I am VERY thankful. They replied quickly. And apparently spoke well of me. Because I was offered the position yesterday [two days after the job fair]. And yes I screamed [when I hung up the phone of course]. And felt an instant relief.

God. Is. Good.

So 3 weeks in. I am EMPLOYED.

Off Topic YouTube. 

Yes. These people are serious. Yes. People [in the UK] really like them. Yes. The blonde [Tulisa] is a judge on the X-Factor UK.

To quote N-Dubz*: "How could I leave without a number in my hand, I went to go on Facebook, will I get a face back. Trying to find you is like a needle in a haystack". 


Yes. I laughed VERY hard when I heard this.

*After I got this call I also received two calls about job interviews. Yes it felt feels good to be wanted.
