This & That

Feel free to add me. If you're cool, I may just accept ;)

Assessments

Assessments

Just got back from another Assessment Centre - this one for a job in the city centre.
Really tired now. I think it went well. I have suddenly developed confidence from somewhere, so I hope it's not misplaced.

I have decided not to go into too much detail anymore - slightly paranoid that potential employers will be reading this. Especially as this is the first thing that usually pops up when you google my handsome name.

Anyways,
so for once I feel like I have actually earned a weekend ha ha

Last weekend was spent cramming for the interview on Monday.
Monday - the interview.
Tuesday - crashed and then went for another job.
Wednesday - ok I chilled on that day. - Watched England, was pleasantly surprised.
Thursday - panic & fear as I had one day to prep for today's assessment.
Friday - 8am-1pm Assessment Centre (getting up at 6am folks - not done that in a LONG time)

So, with the added annoyance of the trains playing funny buggers - running half hour, replacement buses on certain stops - it took me so long getting home that I had to go sign-on in my suit. Yeesh! made me look like a right suck. ha ha.

So having earned this weekend, let's examine my options.
Money - zilch
Football - yay! Liverpool are on. But it's Saturday morning so over before I know it.
Friends - all playing out with money
Guess I'll be spending this weekend chilling and bopping punks on Warriors PS2 game (it is awesome!)

Although right now, I think I might just sleep.....

Bored so I'm gonna do one of those lists and then try and add the video of the song that comes on instead of just naming it. I'm working with youtube here, so there may be some naff 'fan' vids just so that i can get a vid oh and if there is no video I'm gonna skip to next track.

For those who don't know how it works…

1. Open your music library
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool... and a lot of the songs fit with the setting

Walking through the shops before, dodging the plebs, I kept catching snippets of conversations.

I heard

"eeee, what are you doing going with him for? Have you lost your mind?"

really nasal, really negative.

I turned around and some ugly little cretin was deriding her mate for what I can only guess was her choice of sperm & kebab donor.

It made me laugh - why do people want to piss on other people's happiness? That poor woman could have found her dream man, or at least the type of (and only) man she could get.

I wonder how she felt having her ugly (probably single) mate chastise her for getting a bit of happiness.

Of course I could have gotten it all wrong. The woman could have been drunk, parted her lips like the red sea, and (well I was gonna write swallowed the Pharoah and his army but I'm not sure if that works as a euphemism for sperm lol)

Then I saw a lovely lass who I used to work with, took a few seconds for us to realise who the other was, said our greetings and then realised we were already moving on, too late for us to stop and have that awkward friendly chat.....
