It wasn't that long ago I was 18 a year before I joined a company and have worked my way up it hasn't been easy but I do believe if you set your mind to something you will achieve it
Believe in yourself and you will get that better paid job- don't let any opportunity go past you!
All the best for 2013 :beer:0 -

Thanks for the advice I will look in to this tomorrow :T0 -

Believing in yourself is a strong phrase ! I wanted to work in IT since I was like 14 but now as I get closer to becoming qualified to work in the sector I am having more and more doubts whether I will want to do it or not.

With regards to being quiet on dates just keep asking questions! Most people enjoy talking about themselves so ask them about themselves - this then leads onto other topics and before you know it you're having a stress-free conversation.
Good luck
After getting back into roller skating after 30 years, my goal for 2013 is to learn to skate backwards! :rotfl:It's not how far you fall - it's how high you bounce back.... :jHappiness is not a destination - it's a journey0 -
Mines the usual - drop the bad habits and get some good ones! Also hoping to go to Uni this year, spend more time with the children and sort out my over cluttered house0

1. Give up smoking for good....feel more prepared for it this time, and have the determination to do it.
2. Get to my goal weight.... lost 6 stone between 2009 and 2010, put a stone back on and have pretty much been the same weight all of 2012 (keep gaining and losing the same few pound)
3. Go on holiday .... haven't been since June 2007
4. Get my self confidence back.....
5. Finally sort out my attic and the cupboard of doom .... planning on doing an hour each Saturday and Sunday, will soon get it done :rotfl:
6. Save, save and save ...... house deposit being the goal
7. Don't stress the small stuff .... life is way too short for that

I had zero self-confidence until I started work (at age 18) so I think it is sometheing that comes with age (I'm 40 now).

In the two years I have worked for I never gained as much confidence there then I have done since September so its starting to work out for me
I didn't even know what to ask :embarasse
Hopefully this year I will go on another date as the last one was in February 2010!
Thanks
I once tried roller skating and found it very hard even through my brother who is 8 years younger then me could do it professionally :rotfl:0 -

Many people have tried to make me try smoking but as of yet I havent given into it!
I don't aim to lose any weight I need to put it on, I only weight 9 stone 6 pounds and I am around 6 foot 1/2 inches tall so I think I am under weight :eek:
I will hopefully go Paris next year for my first Holiday seen 2009
That reminds me I need to clean my room out
This year will be when I start having fun :T0
