Ugh. Six weeks? I really am a terrible lj-er, I haven't even been commenting on other people's entries *slaps own wrist.* I have felt so sick of computers revently, and generally rather miserable and not feeling like company but I'm all happy again now so I have returned... again. This time for real, Brownie's promise.
Nothing's really happened since the last entry, which really sucks. The Oxfam Online Shop, well, our shop within the shop has now made over £4000 and around three/four weeks ago we launched on amazon as well (
right here) and we've sold over 100 things already! W00t! Although for some reason a large chunk seem to be Playstation1 games - I didn't even know people played them anymore!
In what may be more exciting news, or seems to be to me anyway I have an interview to get back into college! 19th August which is ages away, if I manage to get in then classes would start 1st or 3rd September. I really,
really want to get back in though. I should have finished my A2 year, it was stupid to quit but hopefully Access to Buisness Computing will be the path to finally finding a job, even though technically you need the two-year Foundation Degree in Buisness Computing after the one-year Access course. The woman told me before I applied that I should go straight onto the Foundation one because I has AS levels and was apparently "overqualified" but it said in the syllabus that it contained programming and the Access has "introduction to programming" and as I know nothing about programming that seemed to be the safer option. Which I guess is what I'd tell them at the interview. Argh! I hate interviews and selling myself and all that rubbish.
If I do get accepted I can't claim jobseeker's anymore. The class-contact time is 16 hours and jobseeker limit is 15 hours 59 minutes and 59 seconds which sucks. My mum's not that pleased that I'll be dipping into my savings. My nana put aside a bit of money each week from when me and my sister and my three cousins were born and gave it to us on our 18th birthdays in one of those NS&I things. Three or four thousand quid I think, I can't remember which but I'm 21 now and I've only spend £500 of it and that was three months or so ago and that was only slightly above the amount of intrest gained since I got it so that worked out well! Esspecially as the course fee is £600.
Brought Smallville Season 2 yesterday and I'm already on disc three (though I did miss two of the boring episodes out of disc two.) I forgot how good that show was and pretty soon I'll be into the episodes that I didn't see on tele. I also forgot how smexy Michael Rosenbaum (sp?) was and how much I want Chloe's hair (but a brunette version because I'd never dye it blonde.)
Has anyone seen Dragon's Den on monday? Deborah is looking really rather thin now and the guy who narrates it looks so frail and older, like he might be ill :(
That's about it for my ramble today.
