job seeking

well I arrived in Melbourne on friday so almost one week ago... After the week end i started looking for a job,yep something to afford my stay here in Aussie! I knew since the beginning that find something related to my studies wouldn't have been easy and in fact i left my resumes to sushi bars and retail shops lol.

I'm waiting for someone for calling me, i feel like i'm wasting my time here doing nothing...I mean there are several things to do here in Melbourne but...as Beate said "do your duty first and then enjoy yourself, that's the german mind". Oh my god,am i becoming a german?! hihi No, it's just that I don't wanna act as a visitor,not now.... I've had my first official interview this morning in a language school.

This is the story: yesterday while i was waiting to cath the tram to go back home i saw this school at the corner of the street so i thought "why not try there?!" and so I did. I have to recognize that Australian are really polite and kind,the secretary welcomed me with a great smile!she asked about me and i told her"actually i'm looking for an English course,but at the same time i look for a job...".She replied"Your english is very good!on the other hand we don't need an italian teacher now...anyway I make you an appointment with the coordinator tomorrow".

So I talked with the coordinator,a lady with german origin who explained me the courses of the school...She told me "your english is very good" as well and she was well surprised that I know three other languages Really funny,she said :"Here In Australia if you know 3 words you're beginner,if you know 4 words you're intermediate and if you know 5 words you're advanced, since Aussies speak only English! lol Anyway while she was talking i thought "ok,stop compliment with me and give me a fucking job!"


And finally here's the point:as Roy,the scottish guy that we met during the ocean road trip, told me, it's hard to be hired with an working holyday visa...they ask for a permanent one... However she told me she would have kept my resume if things change....
