All really good and #5 is impressive!

Thank you. Yes, believe it or not, adding to this list (before the end of March) was some of the motivation for doing it now. I don't have much confidence they'll call me given my lack of recent work experience but just submitting an application was the big hurdle.

Ooh, well done and good luck!

Hemming pants sounds like a useful skill. I can do a bit of very rough sewing but not properly, and I think it might be nice to learn a bit more.

Thank you!

Yes, I had a gift card but the store didn't have pants which were large enough and short enough at the same time, so it was worth learning how to do it.

🥳 These are all great things to have achieved/learned, but I'm especially happy about #5 for you. Crossing my fingers!

Congratulations! Whether or not you get a job, submitting an application is an ENORMOUS step in my eyes! The idea terrifies me!

I'm glad I decided to swoop by today.

Thank you! Yes, I have been afraid of it for a long time so just to show myself it isn't impossible is a good step.
