Resume Building

If you know me, unemployment has been a bit of a downer. I mean, I guess it would be for anyone but I typically like to pack my days with so many tasks that inevitably some of them spill over into the next day and the cycle continues. I guess this could be healthy though. Sooo, how am I spending my time. Let's see, I spend way more time on my classes which is good, but, when I do bad on something now I have nothing to blame but my stupidity...because I put the adequate time in. I have also been applying for non-existent architecture jobs. Lastly, I have seen quite a bit of this view below. This part has been lovely.

Oh I almost forgot. I have also been packing. As perfect timing always works out, our landlord has decided to sell our house so we have to move by the middle of march. More on that later.

Shhtatistics Happen

So it happened. I am now one of the 7.2%...probably even higher for the month of January. I am sitting at home right now being way more productive than I have been for the past month but no part of that production equates to revenue. It does make me feel good that the entire office shut down temporarily rather than the sights zeroing in on me as the weakest link...but good feelings don't generate revenue in this case either.

The situation sucks but there are good parts about it. It has given me a chance to start the process of slowing down and regrouping. I all of a sudden have a little more time to do my school work, so that's a plus. I think I will be ready to work again next week though. That's not looking promising for the architecture world....we'll see!
