Dooms Day

The anticipation of weeks presumably celebration came to a screeching end today. My inbox dinged on my blackberry and the sender Amy Newman of Queensland Tourism said I DID NOT make it to the next round of the island care taker job. :-( My heart was crushed as moments of sadness, despair and a moist corner of my eye consumed me. I put my heart into my submission but it wasn't enough. The consolation prize was knowing out of 34, 658 applicants from 200 countries, I was in the running to make the 50 shortlist to the next round but I ended with being applicant #142. Here is my masterpiece.......
