Some days have passed since I ended my summer job and so far I haven't had much time to get bored. On Saturday a street party took place in our neighbourhood. As a child I always had the feeling I knew the people that lived close by pretty well, but nowadays the truth seemed a lot more different. I for example met up with a girl I had been to school with for 12 years and who lives in my street. I hadn't seen her in five years. Of course, she's not a close friend or anything, but for all I knew she had moved out years ago. So if only for this fact I do think it's nice such events are organized these days in my neighbourhood. A toast was needed, my sister and I thought. :P
On Sunday I started with my days of gym. The first day was just to introduce myself to the place and see what it had to offer. I also had in mind that I would be going there each of the following days, so complete stiffness was not what I needed. Some running, rowing, cycling, ab-exercises and muscle train machines were the main goals that day. Yesterday however I had time for a class and the one that was given on the hour that fitted me best, was "fatburning". I do not claim I should loose any fat, but it definitely was a tiring class, which made me sweat as never before. Still no painful muscles though, so tonight a class of figure training is scheduled! Also known as BBB, which in English could stand for 'Breasts, butt and belly'. :P Whether I will be able to visit the gym also in the days to come, will however depend on other matters...
Being graduated and not having plans for further studies, time has come to find a real job. So yesterday a friend and I visited about every job agency in Antwerp, telling them what kind of work we were interested in, and more importantly, what sort of stuff we didn't want to do. For me this mainly includes call centers and helpdesks, which unfortunately is the only kind of job I so far have gotten offers for. About five minutes ago however, I was contacted by one agency that found me a job opening where they needed someone with English and German language skills. Tomorrow they want me to come and try out for a day, so in a way this might already mean the end of my so called holidays. :S I do hope it's a nice job, even for just one day. The hours seem to be long though and it's located not really close to where I live. Not by bike anyway, by car it would be ok. ;) I'll see what happens tomorrow, it's not sure they think I am the perfect person for the job and on the other hand it's not sure that I think this is the perfect job for me. :P
