Yeah it's an unpaid placement for 9 months (like an internship) I get an extra €20 on my Welfare Payment & they've agreed to pay my travel expenses, It's a Maintenance/Facilities type position, should get plenty of experience and stuff, and without being to big headed I'm damn good at what I do, I reckon I could make myself an asset that they will not want to let go come the end of the term.
Good Luck this afternoon, let's make it a good day all round. I'll keep everything crossed for you.

Hey, way to go, Dubz! The place looks gorgeous!!
And best of luck, Kristy!
I've had such an absurdly awful morning. So absurd that it is actually funny (I was torn between tears and laughter and I opted for the latter, which was great, as now I am not in a bad mood despite everything that's happened to me). I won't get into details though, because I won't be the one to spoil the good vibes going on in this thread. :oP
Oh, joyyyy! It's a beautiful day! Rain is falling. :o) |

Good luck today Kristy Bear! |

It's okay Juli, tell us!
I think the interview went well! they seemed to be impressed with my answers and I knew that one of their shows was opening in Toronto next year, so that helped. Im supposed to find out friday or monday if Ive made it to round 2!
Also, it is lovely and sunny and bright here, and snowing at home. Winner! (in a non Charlie Sheen kind of way)
Okay, off for dinner with a distant relative, who Nikki thought was my date. Despite the fact that he is gay and we are kinda related :P |

Yay for everyone!
Not my kind of day. I kind of hate myself today so excuse me, I'm off to watch tv, eat chocolate and be generally pathetic. |

You are not pathetic !!, you're just a wee bit down and need to pamper yourself. You'll bounce back. Anyway I hope you two have fun in Notting Hill tomorrow.

More of a stroll than actual fitness but I was out for a run this morning before I went.
