GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am soooooooooo stressed out about my exams. I'm fine until I sit still for more than five minutes and then I feel sick. This all might sound a bit meldodramatic, but passing these exams is the difference between being a trainee and being fully qualified, the difference between being skint and being ( Read more... )

Hmm, well, predictable old Jen decided to cheer herself up by buying some sparkley stuff this afternoon. Sod work. It's Saturday, I'm going out tonight and I have new jewellery and a new top! Ha! I will worry about all the shitty stuff tomorrow. If only life was always this simple ( Read more... )

Today I put myself to shame by getting so incredibly angry and self-absorbed that I shed a tear at work. I hate not being stronger sometimes. Damn fucking annoying bosses really got me going though. Decided to tell me I couldn't have a mere two days off to revise for the most important exam of my career, and one I'm REALLY stressed out about. In ( Read more... )

What a day. Quite possibly the most unproductive day I've ever had at work, but equally the most lazy. Went down to court at 10am to wait for Mr Armed Robber, who was charged this morning, to turn up. Well, to cut a long (VERY long) story short, he still hadn't been brought from the police station. I was there for SIX HOURS in the end. Geeeez ( Read more... )

Ooooh, before I forget, here's an excerpt from an Eddie Izzard sketch that I stole from Davine's LJ. I'd forgotten how much I love the guy. Typical Izzard ( Read more... )

Funny old few days really. Moving on from my last journal entry, things are still pretty happy happy lovely, although work's a boring old drag at the moment. I haven't had anything too exciting to get my teeth into since I got back from the course. Even a double case of knifepoint robbery at Chippenham filling stations is not enough to raise a ( Read more... )

Yes. I admit it. I am a paranoid, pathetic woman. But hey, who gives a damn? It turns out everything I was fussing and worrying about yesterday is absolutely fine. I don't know why I get myself so worked up about nothing. If I could just chill OUT for ten minutes and consider things rationally I might start to get somewhere. But hey, everything's ( Read more... )

Hello. Well, last night was good if not a little anticlimatic. We had a good laugh at the pub, then went to Buds and paid to get in, only to leave 10 minutes later because Danielle was knackered, bless her. Don't envy her job AT all. Hopefully she will be fine in Belgium. I'm a little worried about her, but have made her promise to come home if ( Read more... )

Aw, I'm seeing Danielle later, for the last time before she goes to Belgium for five months. It'll be Christmas now before we meet again. It's so sad. Just as I get her back here in Wiltshire, she has to go and leave me, sob! Really happy for her and hope things work out, but still. We're going out in a wee while, so I'm going to make sure we have ( Read more... )

BLIMEY! Just returned from a three-day course in Gloucester. Good God, the man who ran it was a complete Hitler. Barking orders, being patronising, making us synchronise our watches (I kid you not!) At one point I did feel compelled to stand and salute "Sir, yes sir!" Geez... And this guy is respected by newspaper editors because he is 'tough'? The ( Read more... )
