Oct. 7th, 2006 04:07 amAfter writing that last (friends only) post, I went and lay down on my bed, wanting to cry but unable to. After a while I got up and hammered out a CV/resumé ten times better than my last one, and made a plan to produce three different 'templates' for it - one for office work, one for video game stores, and one for general retail. It's ready to go, and I'm going to shove my resumé on the desk of every single business in town tomorrow morning. If they're shut, I'll shove it through their letterbox. To hell with moping and feeling sorry for myself. Jai's 'emo' doesn't tend to last very long :P
That's not to say that I suddenly feel all better, because I don't. I'm still worried and guilty and feeling kinda down... but I'm gonna be productive about it. Sorry if I worried or annoyed anyone with my attack of self-directed angst and anger ^^; I'm just a moody fox, but like I said, it rarely lasts. I have optimism more than pessimism, even if I am a cynic at heart.
And now, enough focus on me! There are far more exciting things in the world... how about this? Weston-super-Mare was on full Flood Alert all evening... the water was vicious and the tide was merciless... At around 6pm, it got really bad. The waves were literally splashing up onto the road, right over the walls. There were lots of trucks carrying sandbags up and down the coast roads (mainly in the direction of Sand Bay), and certain parts of the seafront were cordoned off. People walking on the walkways near the front were getting drenched by HUGE plumes of water that came up from beneath the walls like geysers or volcanoes o.o; Some of the spray was taller than the buildings and trees. It was quite dynamic... I was glued to my window for a good long while. At 7:30 or so, it finally started to let up. But the high tide tomorrow and Sunday is predicted to be even higher... so hopefully there won't be strong winds or there's going to be problems.
I took some photos of the waves erupting up over the causeway and the street, but my stupid camera's flash is dead and the pictures I got were useless :\ I'll try again tomorrow if it's anything like as dramatic.
Well, it's 4am, and I'm being quite silly by still being up. I have to be up bright and early to get my CV out to all the places that might hire me, and to the bank to sort out that fine. It'll be okay. Goodnight ^_^

That storm going on outside your house today was metaphoric for your life, no doubt. Just wait'll you can feel the sun again. It'll be the best feeling in the world.
