    I love pizza hut... I'm glad you're having a nice day mm.

    Good luck for the interview Jen, even if you decide you don't want the job it's still good interview experience.

    yeah i was disappointed but i knew they would do it same as they did with sean easteneders is so morbid!
    Guess they don't do happy ending anymore, but at least Sean didn't die. Poor Danielle :(

    Anyway happy birthday MM :)

    I feel lost again today. Keep thinking about having to work and it sends me into a panic. I've never had a job :o or even an interview. And given how bad things are I'm worrying that I won't even get a look in when I apply! Argh.

    When I went to the job centre last summer they offered things like help with writing CV's and mock interviews. To be honest I remember shaking as I handed over my ID to the lady there so I'm not going to pretend you'd love it, but a mock interview might build your confidence a bit so maybe something to consider. I think it helps to think that you're amazing at whatever you're going for (even if you might not be). I remember when I started uni one of my tutors sent an email out with an article about those who achieved the best marks thinking they were good at whatever they were doing/being positive so there may be some truth in it...

    good luck for the interview Jen. It is a good idea to do the pros and cons list.

    I applied for a natwest isa today so closing my one down tomorrow and transferring the money over.

    Thanks Nikki. I know what you mean about being confident... it's just hard shaking off the feeling that other people there will be better/more experienced/etc etc than me :)

    What are you all up to today? I've spent the whole day thinking it's Saturday! Durhh.
