Air stewardess to a red faced Kristy "Are you rather hot Madam?
Reply "No I'm OK. I just couldn't fit my extra 3 rollneck jumpers in my case thank you"
mmmmm I totally understand the dilemma.
When I travelled back from France as a student, I had double the amount of cases allowed on board the coach. I handed 2 of them to a guy with just a small "manbag" and said "you don't mind, do you?" It worked a treat! |

Someone get the seat belt extender, please, for the young woman wearing 7 dresses and two sweaters under her parka! |

never in my life have i said 'rollneck jumpers' ha!
Appraisal went really well, actually. More $ for this girl. Like I said, still not really up to standards, but a step in the right direction.
We had to do a self assesment part and apperently I rated my self quite accurately. go me. So take that, all you people who say I see myself differently than you see me :P |

| I'm starting my exams on Wednesday. I'm starting to get a little terrified now. I can't seem to go to bed so I'm watching Billy Elliot. It's on my English course. I like his brother. Its a really good movie, anyone who hasn't seen it should go watch it. |

If it's stuff that you don't need immediately, you can just ship it by sea, I think. I believe that's how my parents got all their stuff over to Germany.
When we moved to Germany a removal company put all our stuff in a container and delivered it to the new place at an appointed time. Same happened when we came back. We had things like washing machine, sofa, desk etc with us on top of the clothes and most of the books and lps. We only took a small amount of stuff by plane. |

I Came in Through the Bathroom Window Posted Tue 08 Jun, 2010 7:46 PM |
I spent around three hours in a waiting room yesterday. The appointment with the doctor didn't last more than ten minutes. I had to miss work, it was the last class of the Seminar we've been doing. It was such a waste of a day.
And today when I came to my office I found out that a lady that participated of the Seminar made me a present. I don't know who she is, she didn't write her name. All I kow is that she was blonde. But it was very sweet of her. :o) |

Thanks Dee! I've started now anyway, so the worst is over. And it went pretty well I think, I'm happy enough anyway. |
