I give up. If you want me I'll be hiding under my duvet.

I didn't get the job :( and I seem to get form-induced-dyslexia (seriously, I look at it and know that it has words and instructions on but they just don't register) so I am not having much fun with application forms. Why, why does a shop like homebase need four pages of boxes to be filled in? It doesn't help much that my handwriting is terrible, either xD I really wish I had SOME qualifications to write down, not just "Urm... Well... I'm predicted lots of As". I really don't want to end up trying to get a job in tescos :( (they treat employees like shite apparently) and if anyone suggests mcdonalds I may have to hurt them.

Next whine: My recently set up bank accounts are somehow screwed and I'm only getting about half the interest I should be, but I am leaving that up to my accountant dad to sort out xD

And another: I feel sick and I have a horrible chesty cough. My mum thinks I have a chest infection but I have managed to avoid going to the doctors so far, mostly because her asthma is getting bad and she can't really do very much, but I think (hopefully) she's feeling a bit better now :)

One for luck: I'm so so so so tired :( I didn't manage to actually wake up until quarter to twelve this morning, which wasn't great as I was being picked up to go to my maths exam at half past. The only reason I didn't fall asleep during the exam (I finished with 45 mins left- absolute torture) was I was sitting at the front and an examiner was sat right infront of me so I forced my eyes to stay open xD I can't remember the last time I didn't feel exhausted, and when I finally manage to fall asleep it's just nightmare after nightmare, last night I was being chased, by deatheaters I think xD, and I was trying to turn into a bird to fly away but two people who were trying to look after me tried that and got shot down, and so I grabbed the only person left's hand and I started to run towards my aunts house but there were people chasing us in a car and the person I was with was slowing down and I was trying my best to pull them along, then we got there just in time and my aunt tried to hide us and I said to hide the other person first, and I was so scared it actually hurt. I kept switching characters in the dream (I seem to be doing that more often recently) and then I was in a big room where this bad guy was trying to find out if he could control people by making us all walk round and round in a circle, and I knew that if we let him do this then next he would try to take over the world and stuff, so I broke out of the circle and ran into the middle to prove that he couldn't control everyone... and then he vapourised me. I was still concious, despite being a small piece of dust, and the good guys picked me up and put me on a chair with my name (which was Evan Lelee o_O) scratched into it so everyone could come and say goodbye.

And now for something brand new... A GOOD THING!: I plucked up the courage to cut my hair short :D I really like it :D

:hug:

It is most annoying when you are young and looking for a job; all prospective employers want experience, but you can't get experience if nobody gives you a job. The truth is, it is nothing personal. You could have filled out the application form fantastically, and you would be overlooked as you don't have any experience.

Trust me, it is much easier to get a job when you already have one. One could be the worst employee ever and be of a questionable character, but still get the job over you if they have already been in employment. Most managers seem to have circular logic.

Silly employers. I hate all of them (except any whi might hire me :D)

Around about now, I took some when I got in from (my old) school because I realised I needed to update my myspace and stuff xD please bear in mind that this was taken after a two hour english exam, followed by a two hour history exam, with 12 pages of my tiny scrawly handwriting written altogether, hence the slightly dead look :D -goes to upload-

I'll risk you hurting me. I worked at McDonalds while I was doing my A levels. It worked just fine, I could do odd evening hours (my choice) and the money wasn't bad...
