Well, my spring break is almost over, like only 3 more days, oh sad. Then it is back to the grind, all the fun stuff is pretty much over. All we have this semester is a Fashion Show to prepare for and a Cultural Studies class. That's pretty much it.
So, because of this I have decided that it is a necessary need to get job to keep my sanity and to keep my busy. If Spring break is to show for how I use my time, it's a lot of lazy walks and watching a lot of movies and the occasional drawing. I have spent the last 2 days applying for jobs through my college careers centre. The reason behind this, so I can save money for my Bachelors in Costume Design. I have decided that my best option would be to defer for another year. Just so that I can be really sure this is what I actually want to do, and that I will be able to afford it, and not be saddled with massive amounts of debt.
So, for my gap year I have looked into a few options and the one that seems like the most fun, and will make me the most money, is going to Australia for a year to work. I know, it looks like a tough year ahead right? But seriously, the minimum wage is higher, around $14-$15/hour, in Australia and working holiday visas are not too expensive and if I play my cards right I won't have to pay for accommodation. Plus, I could be working in a hotel or on a ranch or a a fruit picker only working about 30-40 hours a week. Life will be SO hard next year. I am in desperate need o f some sunshine and adventure, I thought the outback would be the perfect way to achieve this. I have my entire life ahead of me and I am going to travel and experience the world when I have the freedom to do so! I have the itch to travel again, I've been feeling it ever since I got back from Norway. The actual possibility of me going to Australia in a couple months is very possible.
So, expect to hear more from me as I will be posting more about my endeavours to get to Australia!!!!
