Stressed and bored – an unusual combination
Aug 25th, 2007 by Jonathon Moore
Well, the title says it all really. I’m pretty bored in general at the moment, I’ve been working full time for about three months now (since my summer holiday started) and even though I think my job is awesome, it is sort of loosing it’s edge. I’d quite like a holiday to relax a bit, maybe go abroad for a week or two! Unfortunately as I’m supposed to be moving out of my parents house in October I need to save uber quick (about £1000 in the next two months) so I can’t really afford to even take time off let alone pay for a holiday.
Cadets has lost a lot of appeal lately too, not because I’m not enjoying it but rather because I’m still stuck in limbo over my role on squadron (not a cadet anymore and not an officer yet either) So I’m currently turning up and doing the paperwork and adjutant duties but I can’t really do much in the way of getting involved in activities, it’s going so slowly at the moment that it’s looking like I won’t be commissioned even in time for remembrance parade (if I even get it that is, apparently they’ve really toughened up on applicants recently).
So that’s all the boring crappyness that’s currently going on with me, but how can I be stressed at the same time? Easy! Work have just paid for me to take a Microsoft certification, the exam is on the 17th of September. So far when I’ve been taking the practise tests I’m usually about 15-20% lower than the 80% passmark (I haven’t even passed one yet!) the exam cost a lot and I really don’t want to let anyone down but I just don’t really seem to be improving much. Hopefully I’ll get better soon.
In more fun news I’ve just bought a Barmah hat! It looks awesome and is really comfortable. Look them up on google images.
Bye for now,
Jon
