Please change. Please.
I'm feeling pretty down about this now. Nobody from my FI group has heard back from EK yet which is always a positive since we're all in it together but it's incredibly stressful. I go on various forums on t'internet and the majority of people get their AIP status and GC within a month - even those who have had their FI after we did have heard something back. I know they say 4 - 6 weeks and it'll be our fourth week in two days' time, but it's so easy to lose hope when you read those two words every time you log on to the EK website.
I guess I just want this so badly, and knowing that I could possibly see "Not Shortlisted" after all this time worrying and stressful. Dreaming of this incredible future I could have and all of the unimaginable things I could see and do... if I didn't get this opportunity it would be absolutely heart wrenching. It's frustrating just telling people that I haven't heard anything back yet when they ask me - y'know? Surely it's obvious that if I knew something - I'd tell everyone - anyone - who'd listen.
I just need out of this town. Out of this country. There is nothing for my generation anymore. Get a low paying crappy job, get a council house, pop a few kids out and continue to live not a life - but an existence, for the rest of your time. I don't want that; I know I have so much to offer the world and the world has a hell of a lot to show me. I'm purposely avoiding working on the xray where the EK Crew come through so I don't have to speak to them or see how beautiful they all look as they go through the airport as it only serves to remind me that I very well may not even achieve the dream.
Oh how I'd love to tell people "I'm going to Dubai!" or "I live in Dubai", "I work for Emirates" "I'm Cabin Crew" "I work on the A380" - how amazing would that be? But right now I'm stuck in a crappy little mining town full of people on welfare/benefits and I don't want to be sucked in to the ever expanding black hole of wasted young talent as time goes on. I just needed to get this rant off my chest.
