Just got back from my interview at a recruitment agency. All in all, the outcome is positive. They looked like they always had a lot of business, with 5 people constantly on the phone to clients while I was there, and the woman interviewing me seemed pretty impressed with my past work experience, references and GCSE results Still, I had to complete ( Read more... )

That's good to hear about the agency, though that must have been weird. o_o; I'll bet they were just using you to move some boxes they actually needed moved that day. :x

As I was walking home I had to walk down on a moderately steep slope. Little did I realise it was completely covered in "invisible" ice. The ice you only seem to see if you look at a certain angle. Took two steps on it, slipped backwards and slid halfway down on my ass before I managed to stop. Would've been kinda cool if I weren't dressed up and I didn't pass two women taking their kids to afternoon school on the way down. Meh.XD; If it makes you feel any better, I've done the same thing too. It hurts, but it's funny ( ... )

The infant death is tragic. ._. I can't even imagine what that'd be like, how cheated you'd feel, or the devastation you'd suffer. I mean, for the past nine months, they were planning their life around that baby. They made time for it, planned for its future from buying baby clothes all the way to saving money for college. It was already so loved, even if it wasn't born yet. It was a family member. But then, to lose it like that, to never get a chance to know that person you loved so much...

Yeah, they'd even moved house so that they had space for a nursery. They didn't even get to hold her after she was born, she was rushed straight into the intensive care unit. I really can't imagine the feelings they went through. From being over the moon when she was born and then, three small hours later, feeling agonising and heart breaking sadness.

My mom lost two babies before me, and she was told that I was more or less a goner sometime before she had me. So I definitely have an idea of what it's like, though I'm sure no one can know except ( ... )
