What now?

So I've applied for a Post-Study Work Permit Visa with the UK Home Office.
Apparently, it takes 4 weeks to process an application. It's been 4 weeks but no news.

It's a pain in the arse as it costs £400 and in the mean time, companies don't seem to want to hire me because of the lack of a work permit.
My 2.2 doesn't exactly help either.

If only somebody had told me when I was younger that BSc Biological Sciences holders who want to work in a lab don't get paid much, but it's the managers that manage the scientists that get all the money.


I don't know what it is, but recently I've been seeing more Korean people. I could have chosen not to but I do. From 1st and 2nd year where I virtually met none, and in 3rd year when I met about 3, I have now met over 15 Koreans. I'm not entirely sure how I feel around them but some of them find me funny, some of them admire me and also, from what I've heard, I've managed to offend some people too (not surprisingly).

Good luck with getting a gig, my good man. Here's me raising the regulatory glass of champagne.
