My visa status and Anissa.



It s 4 th of May, Friday night. I haven t been very busy lately. Pretty relaxed and loose especially comparing to my house mates and people from the YWAM base, though, I m still living at one of these houses they rent. It s pretty good to live here. I couldn t find any place in the city according to the cost and conditions of course, but also people here. No one is allowed to consume alcohol here, no drugs, no alcohol. Nothing gets lost or stolen  I can really trust people here, even if I forget something somewhere, I know I can get it back.. It s really convienient in that sense.

 I went Aussijobs today. It s a workagency and for some reason estonians have a good reputation there. Ave recommended me to go there and mention that I know her and Brigitta. That was my second time there and Anissa, woman, who is running the agency, was happy that I brought news from them. She just asked them yesterday to bring a present to another estonian guy, who works in Williams too.
 I was sure that I m on bridging visa and that s what it says, when I look at my online status, though it says both, but I couldn t say what it means.
 Anissa asked her assistant to call to Immigration again. After explaining on phone that I have been to Perth Immigration department many times already and have sent many letters too, the guy on the phone told me to send them one more letter, to explain that I m not studying anymore, just in order to get on bridging visa. Actually, I don t even need it. He told me that it ll go to bridging once my student visa expires, which is on 23 Aug unless Immigration doesn t cancel it before or put me on working holiday visa. So it seems like I ve got plenty of times to prepare myself for what I d actually like to do or so..Also I know now that the conditions that I had on student visa, will remain also on bridging visa, if, I ever will be put on it. So I can work only 20 hours a week until I, whenever it happens, get on second working holiday visa.
"Are you working somewhere now?" asked Anissa.
"Eeh, it s kind of random."
"Call me on monday, I ll find you something in my garden."
 I smiled.
"Ok, I call you on Monday" and left the room leaving at least 20 backbackers in there. Why not I was thinking. It s always better to have more options.
