RSA Check

I took a drive down to Batemans bay yesterday to go to a course and the teacher was hopeless but I passed so it's okay. All I need now is a RCG licence to work in the gaming industry And I will be ready to apply for a job... And hopfully get one, thats the second hurdle.
I am making headpieces for my friends at the moment and I'm hoping if I make enough people will see them and want to buy some. Also I'm thinking of taking my friend Michelle to the Hall Markets. Apparently it's amazing.

RSA Licence

I have applied for an RSA Licence online, it's a licence you need to get before you can serve people alcohol. So I'm going to do it so I have the money and experience as a waitress to go. I'm not going to let anything stand in my way and I'm am positive I'm going next March that is my cut off date and I'm going to do what ever it takes. There is a really nice new bar in town and I would love for that to be my first go. I have never worked in a bar before and I was fired for washing dishes to slow but I'm the best person for working with people and I will be a hit. I'm sure if I get a RSA Licence then that will show that I am committed to going for the job and for the boss to at least give me a try.

Mark (my boyfriend) is coming travelling too, so we drove around town today to have a look at all the camping stores and looked at the backpacks and apparel. We were getting excited about going, it's nice to have someone just as excited about it as me.

The Start

So in March a year from now I am travelling to Asia and South America.

I'm going to save up $20,000 and hopefully $10,000 on a credit card. That's $30,000 that I can travel with for a year. I'm hoping that after I pay most things off, like some of my Student Loan and getting my teeth fixed, there may just be a need for two root canals at $1300 each they don't come cheap and then I have 9 more holes to fix at say $200 each so that's....$2600 + 9 x $200 = $1800 = $4400.

So I have just worked out that by March next year I would have only saved $10,200... Are you kidding me that's not enough. I need to figure out a way to save more. I have my $50 a week as an off the side savings account so by the end of 25 paid fortnights it is $1600 and that's with the extra $350 that's already in there. I work in a bank and get $1400 a fortnight, I'm going to put away $600 for travelling that leaves me $99 for 2 weeks which is nothing but it's good for me to start living as a hermit.

I'm going to get a job as a waitress at a bar for the extra money and for the experience so I know what to do I just need a RSA Licence. I don't know whether I would actually enjoy working 2 jobs... I guess it's not the point of enjoying it it's the point of hard work and it paying off in a years time when I want to  travel with a good secure budget.
