Gap year stuff

August 18th, 2007 by alice

I should have been more organised and got my gap year sorted ages ago. I guess it’s easy to say that though, in all honesty I have been looking for months now for something to do during my gap year, I just should have put a bit more effort in.

I wanted to go to France and work there for a year. This would improve my French no end but also give me independence. Plus I want to move away. I just kept putting off sorting myself something out. I applied to Disneyland Paris to work there but got no reply (bastards, hire me!). I just want something to do, I can’t face just staying at home doing nothing for a year.

I’ve been looking into various organisations and schemes and things on the net recently, and have a few info packs about various courses. I’m too late to apply for anything starting this autumn, so I reckon the plan is from now on (well, starting sometime in September) to find a full-time job in town working from now til Xmas, then after the New Year I’ll hopefully go and work abroad. Must apply to these organisations.

I could probably hook up a job in China for the New Year as well, and go teach there like my brother did. But it’s so so so far away. France is nice and close.

I just wish I had something organised.
