Waiting to hear back on some stuff
But the deadlines aren't for ages, so I won't hear back for ages. Spending most of my time doing photography just now instead, might frame up and try to sell some pics to bring some money in.

Or I'll sit about doing shit all, slowly wasting away. Easier, and a bit more appealing somehow.

Don't be afriad to chase any of these companies up if you're waiting.
Even if it's just a call to HR 'to confirm you've received my application' - at least that way, you'll know someone has looked at it.

This is what led to my awful week
Of phoning up to see if they'd made decisions and being told that yes, they'd chosen the other people.

Call before the deadline for applications.
Better still, is if you can find on the company website the name of the director of the business unit you are applying to.

If you mail them directly (or rather mail their PA as they are probably too important to read things themselves), at least someone - maybe a decision maker - will actually see your application.
