Online job applications

So within a month I will be travelling back to England, that I'm sure has changed in the last four and a half years. I've been starting looking for work online. I forgot how tedious and time consuming it is just to fill in one, whatever happened to sending a CV and a covering letter? Now it's all done by computers, no need for human interaction, let a machine make the decisions so people are free from guilt. That's all I feel like I'm doing is sending a job application to a computer to decide my future plans in the UK. This is all before the online tests and the interviews where they asks questions based on a point system where if you score wrong they'll disregard you without a second thought.

Things are getting real.

It's official I've booked my flight back to the UK. I'm full of a mix of emotions now . I'm sad that'll have to be away from my wife, and filled with trepidation about the road ahead. But I have keep headstrong and try my best, because you'll never know unless you try in life. Life itself is full of hurdles and obstacles to test you. We have to deal with these as best we can with what we've got. So my advice for people in similar situations is, give it a shot if you're able to. You'll always regret in the future if you never tried. So for the next five weeks I have left in Taipei, I'm going to plan what I'm going to do once arrived, and also spend as much time I can with my beautiful wife who I love and miss dearly.
