Feeling myself again

These past 5 or 6 days have been rubbish for me..because I've been ill.

Every symptom imaginable...well, just a sore throat, a fever, a high temperature, a bad stomach, a cough, the shakes and a swollen throat. Humph.

But today I wasted 45 minutes of my evening to sit around waiting for my doctor to move his arse so I could have my appointment. A 2 minute one in the end, how ridiculous. I could slap the NHS sometimes they really do have bad service..I dont even want to mention how long you have to wait at A+E in Telford!!

So after that pathetic doctors appointment I went to somerfield with mum and then took Hannahs present to her house. She wasn't in so we left it on the door handle praying it didn't get nicked...I got it in Camden after all..eep!

Im feeling a lot better today, I applied to Next to be a stockroom assistant. Its only temp but I need any money going at the moment.

I am supposed to be going to London this friday but my assessor is being silly and making me do my final assessment on Friday morning without checking with me first. I could just say Im ill again I suppose...I want to see Jamie!!

Apart from what I've already written there's not much else to report. Im quite excited to be starting Stafford College next September tho, I want to do a BTEC National in Media... like I always have wanted to. 2010 is the last chance to do it for free so I thought..why not? ;).

Not long to christmas...the shop windows are being transformed as we speak and each one Ive seen so far is really pretty =). Jamie's going to be here for New Years and its my Mums 50th Birthday so I need to get her something special and a very cool cake!! hehe.

I think Im getting back into the blogging word..only because Im unemployed and have FAR too much time on my hands. It's driving me insane not having a routine!! Hopefully I can get a job soon

-Rachel-

Its the London Eye ;)

Do the Shake n Vac

and put the freshness back!!

Haha, what a retro advert. Im watching the worlds greatest adverts or something, this happens to be one of them...as well as that quite raunchy flake advert of the 80's.

Anyway

Im ill. *applause* Ive done it again. Rachel is ill.

Im ALWAYS ill!!! This time ive got a bad stomach, pains everywhere, a swollen throat and other symptoms which may be because I have piggy flu but I dont think I do...well I might but I dont want to believe it =/

So I've been housebound for 3 days, doing nothing but sleeping and watching tv. The weathers been awful so I cant even sit outside, well not like I'd want to anyway its freezing. *sigh*

I really miss Jamie too, and I hope Im gonna be well enough to go on Friday cause we are all seeing New Moon =] Cant wait. We go to a big cinema in Islington....big prices too...£9 a ticket :o Such a rip off...and I bet you can guess the prices of the popcorn and drinks grrrr. So expensive!

Sam has been very kind and let me use his laptop for the past 2 days and im using it now, I dont fancy getting cold sitting at my computer. Im all tucked up warm in my bed =] Laptops are good for when your ill. I'd have one for the pure novelty if I was rich, hehe.

Apart from me being ill theres not much else to report. Dad got the christmas decorations down (nice and early) although they are all stuffed in boxes in my mums room for now until we put them up.

My new tv is awesome too! A man put a new digital aerial up on the roof and connected our tv's too it via a wire and now I have loads of decent channels..it rocks! I love having BBC three in here hehe.

Over and Out

Its the early hours of the morning

of the fourth of November 2009...

Im sitting at my computer talking to one of my american cousins Heather, listening to some random tv programme but not watching it...and feeling wider awake than ever...I should be sleeping ! But as my recent bed time has been 4 in the morning then how am I supposed to feel tired now?
*sigh*

A lots happened lately, I quit my job because I couldnt face going back after the manager gave me a mouthful down the phone on how crap I was as an employee so I ended slamming the phone down shouting "fuck you bitch. Good times. Im a week away from completing my NVQ in Childcare and officially not earning any money whatsoever....yes Im in that dreaded state of unemployment and it aint pretty.

So...Im just doing nothing everyday...I hate it..no money coming in , nothing to do except get shouted at by my brother who is also unemployed and clean up for my mum, spend endless hours on facebook and watching movies.
The way I have to watch DVD's in my room is a little different from everyone else...well most people I know. I have my desk next to my bed, and my tv is tiny and doesnt come with a DVD player plugged in. The only option I have is to turn my computer monitor around so it faces my bed, move the speakers...keyboard..mouse etc and play my dvds through my computer. This seems to work well until..
1. The monitor automatically switches off after 30 minutes to conserve energy which involves my film being rudely interrupted and having to stumble out of my cosy bed to wiggle the mouse so it comes back to life.
2. The speakers fall down.
3. The pc jams etc

So I guess its not the best method..but its the only one I have right now until I can afford a tv...

The movies Ive been watching recentley include
Rachel getting married
Fame
Nick and Norahs infinite playlist
The boat that rocked
..and another one I cant remember the name of but will probably spring to mind at a later date...

So the job hunting goes on.
The other day I applied to B&Q and the application process was sooooooo tedious....I had to rate myself out of 1-5 from a variety of adjectives such as "generous, kind and sensitive" how stupid why do they need to know that..I havent heard a thing back from them either.
Im literally applying EVERYWHERE now....grr I hope I can get something =/

And also Ive decided I want to be a primary school teacher...seriously. I think its the right thing for me to do....Id be a professional and be on a good salary a year....and I love kids anyway. I would actually go to uni and do it too....but it means going back to some college (not shitty new college) and doing a BTEC or A-levels. Well I know that I hate the whole A-level world and Ive always loved Media so Ive applied to do a BTEC national diploma in Media Production at stafford college next year....its ages away yet so I need to earn some money in the mean time because Im always in London with my gorgeous boyfriend..

Speaking of London , Im going down this friday and staying until Tuesday to see my Jamie <3 It feels like a lifetime since I last saw him... we've been going through a rough patch lately but all is OK now... I love him so much :)

Its still before 4 in the morning and Im still not feeling like I wanna crash and go to sleep...argh my body clock is seriously messed up Im telling you. It feels like time is just passing me by here, I wanna do something with my life!!!

Tomorrow Im going into my mums school to sit in with the receptions for the afternoon, just so I can meet the kids I'll be working with next thursday for my final assessment. Then I'll be qualified and nvq 2 will be mine. Not like Im gonna do anything with it, after all that. *sigh* Unless I find an AWESOME job as a kids club leader or something...3 hours a day aha. Oh well It will come in handy if I wanna be a teacher!!

Miss Tomlinson

I can see it now :P

I'd get those kids in order

Hmm Still not feeling tired and its coming up to 3:45 in the morning......

Bonfire night on thursday, seems to be a popular date for peoples birthdays on facebook as I have a whole list of them on my homepage!!!

Signing off now, hopefully Heather singing lullabys and nice thoughts of Jamie will make me sleepy

Goodnight
