It's Snowing!
This might be nothing to someone who lives in a country where it snows, but to me, living in Ireland where all it does is rain but not snow (on the off chance that it ever does it melts as soon as it hits the ground) it's a big deal. I have an exam this afternoon, but whatever. This is great!( Read more... ) -
Help!
So, if you had to do a 20 minute presentation on anything from French culture, be it a film, a personality, an author, a director anything really although it has to be serious, what would you do it on? Bear in mind that my partner for this project is Chinese so she'd have to be into it too. Plus, there are loads of other people in my class, and we' ( Read more... ) -
Bored and Tired
I'm in a hotel near Dublin Airport. Flying out to France at 7am tomorrow so have to get up at about 4. Still haven't had dinner. Been travelling all day. I'm all alone in this huge hotel and completely disorientated. I'd better eat and try to get some sleep. Don't expect to hear much from me for at least 3 weeks. Doesn't mean that I've forgotten ( Read more... ) -
Apologies For My Absence!
I'm really sorry that I've been away. I don't have a clue what I've been missing. I've been very busy with work and preparing things for France. I'm leaving on the 2nd of September ( Read more... ) -
New Laptop
Still working at the petrol station. The guy I had to cover for a few types has officially disappeared off the radar so I seriously doubt he'll be coming back to wrk. Which means that they still need me. Which is a gift and a curse considering that the job isn't muuch fun, but it does get me some cash so beggers can't be choosers, right ( Read more... ) -
Boring Work... I've Missed All The Fun!
Sunday was *supposed* to be my day off. Except at 2pm I got an urgent phone call from work saying that they needed me to cover for somebody who called in sick. So from 3-10 I was working on tills with nobody to back me up. Oh, and only 15 minutes break - I'm not sure if that's legal, I'll have to check. I could've said I had something on, but I ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
I am exhausted. First day at work today - I've got a part time job for a few weeks working the tills at the petrol station I mentioned in my last post. Sounds easy enough, but it wasn't! Sure, if you can scan the item and the person has cash it's fine. But if someone wants to pay by credit card, or has an account for the petrol, or wants a lottery ( Read more... ) -
Very Talented Dog
I don't normally pay attention to talent shows, but I have to share this clip from last night's episode of Britain's Got Talent. The dog is called Gin, and his trainer is only 15 years old. She must have spent hours training her dog to "dance" like that!
They didn't get the highest number of votes, but they still made it into the final because the ( Read more... ) -
Video of My Cats
Sorry if I haven't been posting much lately. Just posting a link to my new video of my cats! I've never tried making a video before (I don't really have the equipment - I can only make videos from footage recorded unto a video camera), but I now have even more respect for those who have made several because it takes AGES to edit such tiny clips!
