Just putting this out there...

It's a new year. On nyd I woke up with this song in my head, along with a slight headache. I started to think about all the possibilities of 2014 and my remaining time in London (officially 9 months but who's counting). I started thinking of the places I want to travel to, the things I want to do in the city and then I started thinking of my current funds--or lack there of. As it is, I don't think I can do all I want to do and still afford to stick around for the whole time. What do you sacrifice time or experience?

I'm not going down without a fight, my mama brought me up right! So I can either accept this fate or change my situation. I've long given up the dilution of getting sponsorship or marrying a knight in shinning armour (the fantasy is still strong, mind you) so my only option is to change my income aka get a new job or some other kind of earner. The job market is a tough one right now and I know I can't get something here in my trained field (can you say, 'career break'?), but making more than what I currently make would be the next best thing. So I'm putting it out there to the Universe, get me a new job! It's all about the contacts.
