A rant.

I'm really fed up. Nothing new there, right? Well, I promise next time I write in here it will be with something good, maybe even ficcage. Or even original ficcage, if I can be arsed. Not this time though. This time's for the ranting. The huge, huge ranting. If you're even still with me at the end of this, I'm impressed. It's been, I think, one of ( Read more... )

OMG.
Ok, I clicked johnnytwobands then I clicked trenina then I clicked this and OMG.
Well not so mind shattering, but I did Young Enterprise too!
Haha it was the complete and utter bane of my life last year...seriously, I could go on about the problems it caused for pages. It sounds pretty much like the same as yours in everyone refused to work and by the end we all hated each other...we made about two pounds each altogether, because our school is pisspoor and made us pay over three hundred quid in registration. And we had *two* bastards of business advisors...in fact no, one was quite nice, but the other was a patronising git.

And the word 'radical' makes me laugh...I remember when one of my friends used to say it in all seriousness, and never understood why we were snickering so much.

I'll stop talking now, as people get tired of me talking so much. Sorry. Feel free to ignore me and all that, haha.

Haha, Young Enterprise - good times! Well. Good times, if your idea of good times is, um, bad times.

You weren't in the North West regional final were you? (Actually, did we even get that far? I'm not sure we did). I know at the presentation evening, we were the only school that didn't win anything. There were twelve awards and twelve schools, and they gave one school two, haha!

Mind you, at least you made some money - we all lost a fiver each as 'shares', hahaha. When we came to add up the profit at the end it was actually literally zero, haha. What did your 'business' thing do?

And I agree that 'radical' is a funny word. *grins* To be fair, it was one of the worst band names I've ever heard. And you consider that they were the good band. Mind you, the shit band were called Genocide, so there you go...

Oh god I just wrote a load and LJ ATE IT. Thankfully I have a semi-photographic memory and can remember a lot of it.

Anyway. I don't think anyone understands the horrors of YE unless they took part in it. And all my friends are still too shell-shocked to talk about it.

Final? Finals? Mate we only just managed a non-animated, times new roman font in built headings black and white four-words-a-page presentation sans images (and some faked accounts, and an appalling 'report'). Which promptly broke on the night so me&Claire had to make a speech up on the spot. It was amazing, everyone laughed.

& same about the awards thing. Kinda. There were two other groups from our school, they both won awards and we didn't. However, there was excellent food on offer on the presentation night, so it was all worthwhile. Even if Becky did accidentally tell a coupla judges that we faked the accounts and planned on cheating (well. I think they were cheating us to be honest...) YE out of the 30 or so percent of our profits they wanted ( ... )
