It’s been three months since my former employer let go of me. The recession left me and tens of my ex-colleagues jobless. I couldn’t afford to be unemployed, as I have a young girl to take care of. So I took a part-time tutorial job. I was hoping for freelance writing jobs. I was in the supermarket when I met Rosaline, my former roommate. It was nearly a year since we were together. Our remaining minutes were spent catching up. It was when I told Rosaline that I was not fully employed that she invited me to try the community college that offers quick job programs in . It didn’t take me a day to decide. I enrolled in a program that would lead me to a certificate in technician. I couldn't even pronounce it at first. Balancing my studies and my time with my kid was challenging, but I like it and I was able to finish the program. Not only did I get a new job sooner, but I also learned that the college offers freelance writing jobs. My problem right now is how to find some time for my sweet angel.
