fencer_xWell, not woes, but tough-ish times, I guess?
I sent in an application to Berlitz (more a pre-app really) last week, and while I knew it was past the application deadline for this year, I figured I'd get SOME kind of response.
I did, and it was as I expected: 2008 apps will be accepted in mid-January. Unfortunately, that's for a Spring 08 start. And I need a Fall 08 start *headdesk*
There's also the issue of I need to know if I have that Fall 08 job by FEBRUARY 8TH. Which is not likely going to happen, because who wants to wait 6 months for someone who's pretty much a dime a dozen?
I'm going to be playing with fire, but it may come down to not renewing for JET and reapplying with these places in June/July. I hate that idea of possibly not having a job at all come August, but I'm really not ready to leave yet and even MORE not ready to give up on living in Tokyo.
I also sent in a questioning email to the Interac folks, and the Gaba folks, too. We'll see how those go, but I'm not holding my breath >_< It looks like if I want this I'll have to jump through more than my fair share of hoops...
