Job Hunting

Still looking for a job...
I have had a number of phone calls this morning, as well as some in the previous days as well, but so far that's as far as it has gone.
I'm a little confused, because two or three people have told me they will send me job descriptions but none have arrived. I don't quite know what to make of that.

Incidentally, I did a number of tests this morning as a pre-requisite for getting some temp work [to fill in the time, and earn money for the first time in 3 months, until I get a 'proper' job]. Apparently my typing speed is 55 words a minute, however I feel that I could do much better than that. I wasn't typing nearly as fast as I can, mainly because I kept making mistakes even at the lower speed. Personally, I blame the keyboard. It just didn't feel right. I'm not sure what it was. I'm sure on my laptop, or some other keyboard, I could get a better score.
Oh, and I got 96% (29/30) in the spelling test. I'm curious to know which word I got wrong.

I can actually upload some photos - there's an unsecured wireless connection I can access from my hostel room. I might get around to doing that later today. I actually had a day (Friday) where it was sunny for a couple of hours. Shocking!! - Although this was after it had rained in the morning.

On London, fortunately many of the museums are free, so I don't have to go around the whole thing in one go. I've been to the British Museum, the National Portrait Gallery, the Tate Modern, about half of the Natural History Museum, about half of the National Gallery (some Ralphael and Da Vinci pictures in there), briefly went into the Science museum - they've got a section on 'The History of the Computer'.

Yeap, a lot of museums. I have 'seen' all the big sites as well - I did the South Bank walk, starting at Westminister Bridge (I didn't see the Abbey though... ?).
This goes past Big Ben, Parliament (saw 10 Downing Street), London Eye, a bunch of other things I don't remember, Shakepeare's Globe, some markets, HMS Belfast, Tower Bridge and Tower of London. I didn't go into any of the places (other than the Tate Modern along the way) because they are all £10+ to enter. I'll consider going back and doing them once I have a job.

I'm a little bored of museums right now. I need to find something else to do instead. I went for a run through Hyde park on Sunday, in the rain. Funny how I didn't get around to running nearly as much as I should have while in San Jose where it doesn't rain at all for 5 months of the year, and instead go running while in London, where it seems to rain every day of the year.

Rather long rant about nothing in particular. I have to find somewhere else to live soon. I'm paid until Saturday morning, but then the hostel (so the girl says) is booked full. I could just go to another hostel but I probably should look at something a little more.

Oh and things are so expensive! Did I say that in the first post? Prices are kind of similar, until you double it to get dollars. That's why I really need to start earning pounds.
