cover letters

I really really hate writing covering letters :/ Formal writing does not come naturally to me (well, nor does any other type of writing, but in most cases it doesn't actually matter like this). Anyway, I just applied for a job in Melbourne, but it's only a 4-6 month contract so not really what I'm looking for. Eh, I don't have the sort of experience they really want anyway, but thought I should at least act like I'm making an effort here.

(I should be putting this effort into studying for the two exams I have left, because otherwise saying I'm a 'soon-to-be-graduate' might not be so true after all).
