I'm will not be able to attend the get together, sorry. I was really looking forward to it too. I have been on EI for the last year, and then two weeks go I had a interview for a job I really wanted. I lost that chance because I did not have certain skills (skills they did NOT list in the original job advert).

So I have now applied for a student loan and gone back to school to get those skills. As such I no longer have EI and I will be very poor. Our only luxury is the computer because it is a necessity for communication with familes. I cannot  afford to spend money for a meal at a top notch retsaurant. So I'm afraid I will have to decline the invitation. Sorry.  I will be at school for the next 13 months.

Just thought I'd bring this back to the top again as we are getting closer.

Can't believe how fast the summer is flying by.
