Hello my children.
This is just a little update to what's happened. So I'm still unemployed. I went to the jobcentre the other day and signed up for jobseekers allowance. It all seemed to go well. Except they forgot to give me my passport back and i had to go back for it. Luckily i wasn't too far away. I have to go again on the 8th May. Woo
I got my redundancy pay and lieu of notice pay. It came to just over £2000. Not including my work pay. After deductions (tax and National Insurance), it totalled £2,504.48p. Not bad but not quite as much as I'd hoped.
Anyways, one of the first things i did with it, except pay rent and stuff, was buy a Star Trek Communicator badge off eBay Actually 2. With the rank pips that go on the collar. That must be the geekiest thing I've ever bought. This is it:

It's beautiful. I can be Captain Picard and Tracey can be Captain Janeway. Good price as well considering how shiny they are. Ooh maybe i should buy a couple of phasers and give one to Tracey and we can have a phaser battle. Oh god, what am i saying? I'm 28.
I think the fact I've been playing a lot of Star Trek Online and watching a lot of Star Trek has got me in the mood for it. I never really got into Deep Space 9 before but it's actually pretty good. Next Generation was always my favourite though.
Hmm what else has happened? Well I've decided I'm going to move to Ireland. Probably this year, within the next few months. I should start looking for jobs in Ireland as well. That reminds me, i need to do some research into international movers. It's not like I'm moving my whole house, just a few things from my room. And it wouldn't need to be quick, I'm not in a rush to get my stuff.
I've also come to the conclusion that my Galaxy Note is too big. I think I'd be better suited to something about 4 inches. I want something fairly compact and powerful, like a Galaxy S4, but smaller. That's 5 inches as well. The S4 mini is supposed to be 4.3, maybe that'd be better but it's "only" quad core instead of octa core, like the big S4. But quad core should be enough. I'll do some research anyway. But i definitely want one about 4 inches.
I think that's all for now. I'll make another post when i have something else to say. So bye for now.
