There is something slightly un-nerving about handing out one's resume to strangers... Even if they are particullarly or apparantly nice ones... It is this feeling which I have been having of late.
It has been my duty to go out and get a job for summer, in-between doing uni race car stuff, trying to keep in touch with F-vee and tying up the loose ends of uni for the year.

It was this time last week that I moved out of my college dormitory and back to my parent's home for what looks to be all of summer. It doesn't mean that I can always be found there though! For starters, my uni race team keep me commutting to Wollongong most days and if I am not there I am either at a job interview or church. And both of those don't happen to often of late either... But things are looking up.

Our uni race car runs for it's first time today... WAY WAY WAY behind schedule, but running never the less. I have had nothing short of a rip-snorter of an interview with a VIP for a world class job... On the weekends at least by the looks of things and I have had some replys to the resumes which I faxed to different racing teams and shops last week. It is pretty encouragging... Lets just hope that I get something in the end, eh???

Summer holds for me working ALOT to try and raise some money to get my team working again... and by the looks of things, this means that I will be doing engineering intern things in the day and pulling beers at the local pub at night to offset the free labor whoever takes me on will be getting!

Hopefully at the end of it all I will have caught up with my mates whom I havn't spoken to in years, I will have learnt a tonne and will have enough mullah in the bank to pay for a HANS device, a New Helmet and hey, maybe even a new racecar! (Hey, I can always dream, can't I???)

Seeing as I turned 20 just yesterday, I want to give a big shout out to my fellow Power Puff girls, Ruth and Kat, who made my day by comming over to my parents to have cake and a swag load of catching up! They also hopped into the Vee for a photo sesh and those pics will be up in a couple of minutes!

I guess I will start giving the wrap up on the year's events over the next few postings, and I will deffinantly do a travel diary of the 2004 FSAE-A Championships from Potters Lane, Werribe, VIC over the Eastern Creek Weekend (3rd-5th Dec!).

Till then, thankyous to everyone for starters and I will see you alllllll when I get back!
Blessings
Luv Kirst

This weeked heralds the start of which will hopefully be many more apperances for the Lasts and Lasts Motorsport team!

Dad was able to get me a spot on his site at a Field day in Richmond for this weekend and it will be an EXCELLENT chance to get some coverage for my sponsors such as Bare Co, a Agricultural machinery parts company!

I can't stay long as I am going out to celebrate the end of uni exams yesterday... in the only way this girl knows how... I am going to the movies to see Briget Jones' Diary 2... As a Bridget myself(Always putting my foot in it!) I am going in the hope of gaining some insight into being a big mouth, successful and keeping a guy! Something I am sure Bridget will be able to get the hang of by the end....

On similar news, I move out of college and beguin my trip home this weekend after the field day at Richmond.
Fellow chick driver, Ashley Taws of Canada has conceeded to retirement after not being able to regain a level of fitness required for racing after a major accident in 2002. She is only as old as me! And I can't imagine how shattered she would be, seeing as she was ALOT better at it than me!

That is about it from me for a while guys!
In the process of trying to score an internship for summer!
WISH ME LUCK!
