Today was a good day. Very productive and satisfying. I spent all day walking around Dublin 2 and handing out resumes. I gave a good 10 copies, and some places weren't hiring, which means I covered quite a bit of ground. It helps me feel less hopeless when I'm actively trying to solve what worries me. I did find some nice stores, like the Disney store and Chanel, Louis Vuitton and Hermes. It was my first time seen big name stores like that. I even found a nice little pagan store. All and all, I'm glad I went exploring. It went a lot better than last time, even though I had no idea where I was the entire time. After hours of walking (and a delicious chicken and mango salad), it was back to USIT, where I found two apartments with reasonable price tags. I will be visiting these tomorrow. I also have another one to check out Wednesday, which is a bit more pricey, and an option for August. Ah, how it feels good when things are coming together. I just hope all those resumes bring something. I suppose that if I show persistence, someone will end up hiring me.
Tonight was all fun and no work, which makes up for the rest of the day. I find out last week that Lana Del Rey was coming to Dublin and I managed to get last minute tickets. I'm glad I did, it was a good show, and apparently she doesn't come to North America, so I'm proud I didn't let that chance slip by. I walked home with a true fan of hers. He arrived at the show at 11 this morning to be in the first row, he did the same for yesterday's show and he went to the airport to see her when she arrived. He was so stoked about having taken picture with her, it was cute. I got a few pictures and a t-shirt, and that was it. Still, I don't mind. I was there more to hear her sing live and I didn't expect much more than that.
PS: if you've noticed that the title of this post is lyrics from a Lana Del Rey song, you get brownie points!
All I could think about during the show was: how does she make her hair so smooth?
Beautiful church on the way back. The picture doesn't do it justice.
