*crawls back from under rock*

After shamelessly neglecting my lj for the last couple of months - real life can be a BITCH - this should at least serve as a life sign, letting people know that I have not fallen off a cliff or something.

And with the start of the new Season next week, your regularly scheduled LJ life should commence once more. Also, writing stuff is a-coming.

Hi. *waves*

I fear RL is going to stay bitchy but I'm commited to not lose so much sleep over it anymore. Especially work, either they extend my contract at the end of the year or they don't.

Ugh, contract extending, I know the drill. I'll be jobless in about two weeks. Not that I really care about it, I don't intend to stay in Berlin forever, and I thought it would be a good occasion to focus on learning German a bit more. After all, it kind of was the first reason why I decided to come to Germany. *sheepish smile*

Eek, either you are stressed at the job or looking for a job, it's not fair. Do you have any ideas what are you going to do next? *keeps fingers crossed*

Right now, I'm mostly stressed by all the administrative forms I have to fill in. I always end up with the wrong one and I just lose time...

I'm actually planning on going to Australia next year, for one year, sometimes in April (because I have to go to the LA con first. Yeah, I know, I have strange priorities :P). So I will basically have 6 months in-between where I'm not sure what to do. I could go on without a job by getting the Arbeitslosengeld I during this time, but I know I will be bored at some point, so I might end up with a job for a couple of months. As I am not looking for a permanent interesting job, I'm not really stressed about it, I'm pretty lucky when it comes to that. :)
