    Well good luck with the job hunt and you have a 'map' laid out in front of you now with a couple of crossroads to decide on when you get there.

    I reckon the rest of 2207 and 2008 are going to be great for you hon! :)

    Don't get me started on frootloops! We were supposed to only have healthy cereals at camp but the chef ordered all the wrong stuff at the beginning, including frootloops (or some cheap imitation). After two weeks it was all gone and the granola, bran flakes etc came out... there was much disappointment but I tell you what, their behaviour improved so much after they stopped getting that sugar hit in the morning! Don't frootloops contain the same awful colouring as mountain dew, the one that's banned here, that's why we can't get them.

    lol I remember this drink that was around when I was a kid... it came in a soft plastic bottle and you had to twist the top bit of it off and squeeze it to get this jelly kind of drink out of it.. I can remember what they were called but they were GORGEOUS...

    I'd kill for a can of mountain dew though...

    Oh my, there are people selling reese's peanut butter cups! How can anyone stand that much sugar?!?!?! You'll have gathered I went to america for 3 months and completely lost my sweet tooth and any taste I may have had for unhealthy food... weird huh?

    It sounds dramatic but the food at camp was so bad that I learned to appreciate proper food, with nutritional content!! The first week after camp everything I ate was amazing just because it tasted of something! I travelled with a friend I made on camp called emily and we just kept looking at each other and going "the carrots, taste of... carrot!" :rotfl:
