My thoughts exactly! I find it amusing but also a bit cruel when the moment someone acts funny they get labelled a paedophile and stuff. It happened when I was at school and it was all bull, the rumours and stuff that went round. Looking back now, as an older and wiser person, I realise that there was hardly anything wrong with the teachers that got talked about, they acted no different to the others, it was only because they were old and male that rumours got started! :(I also think it's just the way this country has ended up, people are too anxious and protective. Isn't there some rule now that teachers can't even pat a student on the back in a friendly, "well done you" manner, or something along those lines? Obviously if they do actually do bad things or evidently do wrong, that's a totally different story and very serious, and yeah they deserve to be fired etc! I just mean that everyone in general these days seems very quick to judge and be protective, kids don't have any freedom because apparently playing outside with friends automatically means something will happen to them! They're being imprisoned because the criminals that SHOULD be in prison aren't!Raaaar rant mode!

Sounds nasty and scary! Our crappy neighbours appear angelic now -_-Without sounding snobby or harsh...this is exactly why my mum would never consider signing up to get a council house. They bring trouble like that with them! We'd rather pay more rent and be happy and safe in a nice area.Besides, we'd be stuck on the list for centuries, after the immigrants and benefit-thieving-never-heard-of-contraception-let's-have-dozens-of-kids come first :(I'm so bloody glad I have a job and when I go full time I can free myself of the benefits system!

Jobs..
I'm enjoying my job so much! :(Even though it's cleaning out the cat chalets, just being around cats makes it much nicer (even the grumpy ones!) and knowing that I'm making a difference, making everything clean and comfortable for them, is great. And even though the cleaning routine itself is the same, it's different with each one. Some only have one cat, some have 2-3, some don't make too much mess, others are very messy and even manage to spill cat biscuits all over the floor And even in their beds...even though the food is on the floor and their beds are higher up...cats never fail to amuse me

I have felt your pain. It's the worst thing ever!!Drink loads of water, don't drink juice or fizzy drinks or alcohol cos it makes it worse! However cranberry juice is very good, lots of antioxidants etc. Drink that and lots of water, it'll help

I HAVE A JOB!!! :DEven better, it's a job I want to do! It's at a cattery, just cleaning out the chalets the cats stay in etc. The people there are really nice and most of them are older than me, which is good cos I get on better with older people, they tend not to judge and bitch as much, so I don't have to worry about being quiet or odd :)It's Saturdays at the moment then weekdays also when it's busy in the summer, then back to Saturdays, possibly Sundays too. Which works perfectly for me, seeing as I've got a place at Plumpton College and start in September! :DAbout bloody time that I had some luck! Woooo!

Crap defending, a real shame :DBut like others have said, I'm still proud to be British and proud to live in England, no matter what!And as my brother (major cricket fan) pointed out, we've got a brilliant cricket team yet no one cares about that, or even knows! But cricket is such a British sport! Even though I never cared about it when I was younger, I have memories of the summer, it being on TV, the sound of them hitting the ball, etc etc. It's a shame they don't show it on terrestrial TV anymore, apart from Channel 5 showing highlights. The actual live matches are only available on Sky Sports :DSame goes for Wimbledon, in terms of it being British and it should be appreciated more. That match the other day that went on for 10 hours, then carried on the next day...!!Screw football tbh, it's all about tennis and cricket! :)But I will admit, that was a bloody intense match...until it went downhill!

I'm never taking Nurofen Cold & Flu for a headache again! They basically made me feel really odd and horrible, like I had no emotion or was depressed And we were seeing family round my uncle and aunt's house, so yeah, not the best time to feel like that. I know nothing is perfect but it wasn't a case of it didn't go to plan, I really could not enjoy myself, I usually have such a laugh with family but I just couldn't find anything funny. I normally take normal Nurofen but we've somehow managed to misplace them

Thorpe Park On Budget
I agree with what others have said, and just to add...Don't eat out at Nandos afterward :DOr anywhere for that matter. The only problem is when the rest of the group want to and you don't want to be a pooper and go home early, so you give in and spend money on food unnecessarily! Yup, I've done that too many times! :DGo home and eat. And don't be tempted by those expensive vending machines and shops at the station either!

Jobs..
WHSmith said no. Grr. But my Waitrose has vacancies now, yay! Applied for checkout dude earlier I think supermarkets are my only hope at the moment, all the other shops I applied for went on about having recent retail and sales experience, whereas a checkout assistant just needs customer service experience (and if they have none it still won't matter) and to be able to look smart and smile. Seeing as my latest work experience is all theme parks...yeah, I've not left myself with much of a job path! Unless I wanted to continue in that industry. And I do not! It's all about animals But seeing as no catteries have any jobs going, I've had to consider shops etc..

They have a written exam for Drama now?! When I did my GCSE (2006) we had our performance and the coursework, the performance counted for 40% of the grade, the coursework was 60%.And yeah, I hated noise in exams, such as people coughing like sealions and then sniffing up all the phlegm down into their throat. Ugh!

^ Yay!My voluntary work for Cats Protection will no doubt impress Plumpton College, especially as I'm applying for the National Diploma in Animal Management! :PI had a massive, positive "I can do this" spur of applying for jobs a few weeks ago...all of them said no, apart from WHSmith, had a group interview on Sunday, I think it went pretty well, and even so, at least I got through to an interview. With the way the country is these days, that's a bloody miracle! Even my mum has been turned down from jobs which she has a lifetime of experience in (airport jobs etc)! So getting through to an interview is good enough for me, but obviously if it's a yes... :(Gonna ask at Tesco as well...hopefully now its summer some stuff will come up. If I don't get a job soon I will be screwed, my benefit will stop once I go back to college so I'll have no money to pay rent, bills etc! So bad news for mum more than for me. Of course, the jobcentre don't care that I'll be left with no money to live. Ugh, the guy I spoke to earlier...the tone of his voice...he didn't give a sh*t. I mean I know it's the "rules" or whatever but he could have been polite!Of course, if I was a lone parent, oh no I'd still be able to get money. But because I'm a sensible young person who hasn't got themselves pregnant, and is returning to college to hopefully start their future career, no I get penalised!Rant over, and fingers crossed I get a job eh!

I was only joking :PAs for the skinny girls thing, being able to see ribs isn't normal!! That's underweight and ugly. Being curvy is not ugly.
