Grandmaster

Before I begin this post, I welcome all those of you who maybe reading from my Facebook profile. I have recently setup an importing feature between Janstar.co.uk and my Facebook profile meaning that every post I make will now appear automatically on locations. If in future it fails to appear on Facebook, please feel free to read the genuine article at www.janstar.co.uk/blog!

I was going to blog about the Superbowl and how I detest American sports coverage, but quite frankly now I can't be bothered. Maybe in a few days I will watch some CNN or FOX news and my hatred will soon return, prompting me to blog until my fingers go blue. Instead I just wanted to say that the job hunting was still going strong and the applications are flying out now. I stopped working full time in Argos about two weeks ago and now I'm getting bored as hell. Worse than that each day is turning into a repeat of the previous day; get up, have breakfast, look for a job, then read the news, look for a job, watch the 1pm news with a sandwich, then apply for a job, then watch the rolling news coverage on BBC News 24 all afternoon. Also remember to throw in occasional internet checks scattered throughout the day. Welcome to unemployed hell. Believe me, I now have the determination to find a job!

I am now also a Grandmaster (I promise you Jen I will shut up soon enough). Yes I got my results through and my dissertation made the grade! I am now a Master of Science and Economics in Political Theory. Back of the net! I now hope that with this honoured achievement on my CV, I can boost my chances on the job market.

One last thing - this weekend myself, Jen and Leighton will be off to Aberystwyth to celebrate Lisa's birthday and it will be a themed night out - gangsters! Leighton and I have already vowed to stay away from any Bullmastiff pints, as on the Steed Unit's birthday outing we got bladdered on the stuff - and boy did it hurt the next day. I guessed they called the pint 'Son of a Bitch' for a reason!!!
