Well until we know I can not do much of any thing, can not stay on HOLD all damn long day on the fone, it costs a small fortune,,:angry:
Any way,, back to something else until we get a confirmation on the luggage issue.....
Then we are also waiting for a confirmation for kennels for our dog, we decided to change kennels this year, and this kennel does not give confirmations via e mail or snail mail:rolleyes: so we also have to call those folks too AGAIN......
So to be contiuned,, might as well go sort out the clothing we wanna take,, :rotfl: a pile of clothes for the extra bag,, or the pile for just one bag,, :mad:
Surely you''ll be allowed more than one bag. When we went to America we were allowed 46kg each, so two suitcases each
Just got an e mail from my guy he said his phone call finally went thru,,and yesssssssssssssssssss we can have two suitcases each ( checked in ) and a carry on each whahoooo...... now I can start packing :cheer: :D :D
Thats good :)
What airline are you flying with? I flew with US Airways
Abbie same airlines as you flew <US AIRWAYS.>.seems that there were rumours flying about this airlines, and we just had to double and triple check, cos we are taking the train from home to the airport and we did not want to be stuck re arranging ONE SUITCASE and leaving the other behind ya know,, that would have been a ROYAL PAIN IN THE behind,,:DQuote:

They went on seperate trips, one set on a drama trip where they had snow and the others went somehwere skiing then stayed in NY for the night
Now they all have to take me over there when we're all 18 :)
But I've never been on a plane lol
Not really done much today :( still jsut dotting about. I thnik it's because all my mind is focused on is this interview tomorrow. I am so nervous it's unreal! I keep having nightmares about it and I'm jsut getting so worked up about it:thumbsdow
try not to worry too much about the interview. acting calm is probably the best thing you can do, as if youre worrying too much about it then youll probably be worrying through the interview and then you might panic when answering questions. im sure youll be fine and have nothing to worry about. good luck :) do you know when youll find out whether you got the job or not?Quote:

yeh theres no harm in asking them when youre likely to find out. although id ask at the end, cos then that gives them time to let you know first if theyre going toQuote:

erm im not sure, most schools/colleges post the results out the day after results day if you havent come and collect them but some dont bother, especially if youre going back next year. did you tell them you wouldnt be there to collect them/ask them to be posted? but its more likely than not that they would have been postedQuote:

So all the college know is that I didnt turn up for results day which was a while ago now.
I would prefer if they came in the post tomorrow, when the rest of our post will come.( we did that keep safe thing) I really dont want to go in and collect them :(
they probably would have been sent. i onyl know of one school in my area who dont send theirs, all the other schools/colleges doQuote:

Its just I dont want my aprenst around me and my mum will be in tomorrow but thats better than us going to college and she'll be next to be and then my dad will probably be there too as hes already going into college tomorrow for work
I really hope they get posted.
My friend didn't go t the school to collect her but a lady who works in the school around all the important stuff sends her kids to dancing and they're in my class so my friend asked her what would happen and she said she hsould have taken a stamped envelope with her address on to the school if she knew she wasn't going ot be and they would send them home to her, but because she didn't have any idea about that (neither did the rest of the year) she has to wait until shes back in school.
Then again that's my school for you and I don't think thats the same case in the other schools/colleges, pfft I mean come on our schools too lazy to put our results in envelopes for us. I would imagine yours will come in the post though because you're in College and they do things properly :)
cant believe your school didnt even put your results in envelopes! i couldnt be bothered to go and collect my AS results when i did mine (even though i only live round the corner!) and my school sent them first class to me and they got to my house the next day. yet the school i did performing arts at didnt send my results to me and i had to wait til i went back in september. my sis college were gonna send their results to them if they didnt go and get them and my school i did my gcses at sent them too. as you say it depends on the school/collegeQuote:

I went to Notting Hill Carnival today :D It was awesome :D Loads of loud music and all different kinds of food being sold along the street - as well as fab dancers and everyone just enjoying themselves really, even some of the police :lol:
I dont know, plus I wouldnt want him toQuote:

That's fair enough, Abbie. You put in the work for those exams, you took the exams and they're your results. You should be able to decide where, when and how to open them. I wouldn't let my parents be there when I collected mine; you live in the same house as them, they'll know eventually what you got, so they should be happy with that. My mum wanted to open mine first and I needed the toilet when I got mine. I took them with me when I went to the bathroom because I couldn't trust her not to open it when I was in there. I told her if she wanted an envelope of results to open to go and take her own exams.
DHL don't have very good timing. My DVD recorder was collected by them at half 6 this morning according to the tracker. I have to go to a funeral. Knowing my luck they'll come when we're out and then take it to some random place where we have to collect it. I wouldn't mind so much if I could drive up there and get it when I wanted to, but I'll have to wait for my dad to go if they do take it there. I ordered from the internet because I couldn't go to Argos and order it then go back in a few days to collect it for a reason :angry:
I'm so nervous :( :(
I don't know what strengths I have, what weaknesse, anything.
I've been going over stuff I can say alllll morning and all yesterday.
I just want today to be over and done with. I'm excited beneath it all because I've waited so long for this interview!
I really want this job but I know I'll muck up the interview.
I'll just have to get by with a cheeky wink and a little smile :thumbsup:
Haha nah I'll just try and be myself and jsut say what I think I should be saying!:ninja: :ninja:
Strengths good people skills as you want to work in a school? Obviously don't tell them the last bit, lol!
We were told in PSHE to say something as a weakness which would actually be a good thing.
Have you found out stuff about the cinema so it'll show that you're really interested in working for them in particular?
They dont have alot of info really. But they have a sort of job description on there so I know what to say if they ask why I'm suited for the job. :)
Thats about all I know though lol
just found out some exciting news!
well ive been worrying that my degree from Solent was going to be a bit bad, and I regretted not going to Bournemouth in the end (which is probs the best place for my course) but then again I didn't like Bournemouth or it's uni.
well...
i've found out after uni i can do a post-grad masters degree at Bournemouth for two years. And the beauty of it - I only have to be in Bournemouth for 3 weeks out of those 2 years! the rest of the time i can work from home, doing intensive writing and individual learning programmes, with 24-7 online guidance from lecturers and students on their media portal!
this is exciting as it's a really good course, and it ends with a showcase of our scripts to media execs and potential employers, so basically it's going to be a gateway into the industry, which Solent wasn't going to be offering.
and even if it all falls through, not only will i have an honours degree, but i'll have a masters degree, which will look doubly good in any job
AND
it means i cant avoid the real world for an extra two years, and still be a student! :D
Thats fantastic news Bryan.
Me fed up today, heard my back op - spinal fusion that I should be having in October now might not be happening til Christmas. I have been on high dose of morphine and thats not helped the pain, and now on Fentanyl patches and they are useless, so off to the docs at 4pm to see what he suggests. Wish me luck, I want answers! :D
Interview wasn't that bad...
Hmm I'm not convinced I got the job but only time can tell.
I'll know by next week via letter.
Wish me luck :)
Sitting here trying to write a letter for history; Basically it's a letter to the italian people from Gusieppi Mazinni about a united Italy and we're to explain different factors in it but i just can't do it and it's getting to me don't know if it's because of my history exam result but i just feel like i can't do it. :thumbsdow :(
