Working Class Girl

Well Well Well, I've officially settled into Dublin life, today in just under 8 hours I have a job, and a permanent place to stay as long as I wish. Woo Hoo yay me.

I got a call at 9.15 on Monday morning to ask if I could work as a receptionist for the day, then half an hour later I find out it's for the week. It's a pretty dull job, but money all the same, and I finally have something to do other then wander the streets of Dubling lonely and wet.

Then, after work I check into my hostel and ask if there is permanant residency here. There is and turns out I'm staying in the staff room. So it's gonna be pretty good there too. only 85 euros per week, which is way cheeper then many of the shared rooms I've looked at and have not got, I can stay as long as I want, and I can finally apply for my PPS number which means I can get paid, have a bank account and pay tax! (It also means I get a rebate)

Finally I have some routine, don't have to move every second or third day, and have some money coming in. Very accomplished Monday for me!!!

Might have a beer to celebrate

Goodnight, sweet dreems or good morning have a great day!!
