So really want to work in the profession I know well - can't get a job. So, I settled for something else - I hoped it was going to be enjoyable at least, or busy or ... something...alas - I hate it here, but stick it out because I have too.
More focused on the JW point - I don't know that they actually care! Jahobah will take care of them.

It's wonderful to hear such a happy report, that someone is doing so well in all aspects of life. Good for you.
I woke up on the right side of bed, got to work and well - it's just pushed me down and I feel ugh today.

LV101 - yes I have an American friend in San Diego and after visiting here he mentioned that there was a huge south african community. They even have "saffa days" where the make all the south african foods, have a braai etc. Moving anywhere on a South African passport is nigh impossible :/
aaaaaah I so need to put my head down and sleep.

I haven't travelled the world over I've been to a couple of place and still so many more I'd like to go and visit. I would like to live in Paris for a little bit, I just loved it while I was there and I didn't get to do everything.
I would like to live in the country or a small town - that would be ideal. I may be youngish but I really do want the simpler, uncomplicated life.
Living is South Africa though - though I love my country, would be happy if I could get out of here. Crime, unemployment, very expensive, corrupt. Yet we have so much beauty - it's a shame.

nose ring! I had my nose pierced and I went on un-assigned territory with it - this was before it bacame the rage. It looked so pretty - I was made to feel so very guilty about it - I took it out :(
I permed my hair once - was told it looked to wild and worldly (I had very very long hair) So they wouldn't let me get baptised.

For those that are gung ho you don't do anything naughty. For some of us that did do a couple of naughty things: masturbate, get tipsy, kiss worldly boys - you felt guilty, filthy, bad, prayed for forgiveness and the strength not to do it again.

HI everyone, great advice. I am currently looking ernestly for a job - trust me. I have been on interviews etc, but this is South Africa and right now it's extremely difficult.
We do have a governmental department that is supposed to help - called the CCMA. However they are so inundated with stuff that getting satisfactory help is very rare.
Anyway I'll keep looking, keep searching and hope for something better.
