Currently I am un-employed… I have been since I made the move to Ipswich. The original plan was to go on holiday in October, which I did, film a movie over the whole of November, which I didn’t, then have December off to enjoy, which I’m presently doing and then re-join my work in the city in January. Things haven’t quite worked out that way. It’s now been 7 weeks since the move and whilst I’ve learnt a great deal, my bank balance has considerably dropped. This is not conducive to the Christmas present purchasing that takes place at this time of year. This year I have been organized and have all my presents resulting in very little £ to my name.
Not working is nice in that you can fill your days with whatever graces your thoughts, however without the funds to fulfill these the list is somewhat smaller. I am a city girl, always have been and now I find myself trying to live the simply life in what I consider to be the countryside. Moving out of home and getting used to the cooking, cleaning, washing saga of the monotonous house work, I think I am now on top of. However, I do not think my boyfriend would be so quick to agree with this statement. I need a job pronto in the New Year and my biggest problem is, me. I’m fussy! Although this time I can’t afford to be.
With new headshots for the agency and I am hoping they bring in a few more auditions. I have been with my voiceover agency for 6 months and not heard a peep, only when I’m chasing them so I think come March I will look for another one. As I do acting, or should say this is my goal I need a part time role, so that can be available to go to London for auditions. This is not so easy to find an employer who is cool with it. So the plan will be come Jan 2012, register with as many recruitment agencies as I can, both here and in London and see what comes out of it. I originally wanted media but I really do not think that is going to happen. Can’t act, study and have a brilliant job without the full commitment. It is time to get real!!!
