Yeeeesss Animal. Get your spite on.

That's kinda what I'm getting from it. But like I said, trying not to get my hopes up let that go to my head.

Laxatives in drink. Just before interview/similar talk with managers.

Simply put: Getting money off people. One of the firms I applied to at first sent me a "prospect" for a junior caseworker role. I say prospect because it didn't seem like an outright offer of a position, but it didn't mention an interview either. I replied saying that I was already doing work experience which may last 6 weeks (now about 4 [but I think I might cut that short as they know I'm looking for a permanent position]), the two weeks notice for Tesco (it would be one week but we've all claimed for a bonus which effectively ties us to working there until we get it.) They responded saying that they were interviewing this week so the position would probably be filled by that time. I thought I'd bite the bullet and just cut to the Tesco notice moment, they said they were hoping to have it filled by the end of this week, but would keep details on file etc etc... I thought that was the end of it. This all took place Tuesday/Wednesday. I get an email on my home yesterday: "Further to our recent emails, I have spoken again to..., head of our Residential Property team, and he has asked if you are able to attend for interview.", which has inflated my ego no end. They technically offered me the position, then booked full of interviews, yet managed to make room for me next week. I'm really trying not to let this go to my head too much though. So anuses crossed for Monday!

Ooooh temptedings...

Nah, drinking does it for me

Super Mario Art - Like Mario Paint but Super. Mario Pint - Mario gets wasted. Tarwing - Falco tries flying despite having one of his wings tangled in tar.

Blue suit. I was going to get another black one, but seeing some dude in one on Friday inspired me to change colour. Glad with the result, may take picture sometime soon. Black trousers to complement current suit/anything. Shoes. Exactly like my old ones but won't be wearing these to Tesco, if I can help it. Trainers. Almost exactly like my old ones, except they don't say Airwalk down the side of them (still Airwalk though)

To be honest we all knew it was coming (bone cancer), and although we were told it would be lucky if she made it to the end of the year it still feels too soon. I wanted her to be there so she could see the engagement ring on my girlfriend (once I got the monies [would've been a coupla months]), sadly no more. More brother action as he couldn't come round because he was "hanging out his arse", like a fucking pussy. Soon as I found out I left work.

Currently sat in a room with family next to my recently deceased Grandma. So yeah, pretty shitty.

Reduced action at Tesco. One was £3, other £4. Before discount.

Ok, let's get to the important details: Did it burn him? Did it look like he pissed himself?

Skip the first hour of Alien. Get to the good parts* *Unless you haven't seen it before, then watch through it. It's good the first time around.

Congrats dude! Calling it now.

Maybe even a pitcher of beer if it works out alright :P Need to buy more shirts though. Sounds like perfect leverage. So long as you don't throw that MORE figure in their face(?) they should be grateful to accept your lower offer + experience + knowledge of the role. I've never done a pay negotiation before, actually got one at the solicitors tomorrow. I have no figure in mind because (with the exception of the work done there) I have minimal experience, so naturally not going to expect a big wage. My main strategy is to ask what an entry level secretary would get, and see if I could get that or a little less. I don't want to push it, this job isn't as unique as yours :P

You mean it isn't a coincidence that Banjo plays the banjo?! Mind blown.

I wanna get my 360 back off my Dad so I can replay Nuts n Bolts now. That I'd really like to finally play Banjo Tooie. Or Bad Fur Day.

I sometimes have him stand on the Colossal Titan's head (he's called Tizer)

Took a personal day off work for dis legal shizzle. Fate has been kind it seemed for one of their secretaries has just gone off sick, apparently for about six weeks. So I've swooped in pr0 Batman style and helping the current staff ease the workload. Spent 6-7 hours doing some audio typing. I thought I'd do better. Some of the sound on the tapes wasn't that great in some places but on the good bits I thought my typing would've been a bit quicker. The way sites say you should set your hands for touch typing just doesn't seem to work for me. I find myself not being able to reach everything as good as I normally can (which is placing my hands one key towards the centre). So, they're saying that they'd like me to help out after work. So (days not with overtime) I'll finish my shift at 11.15. Run home, suit up, and bus my way into town to help out for 5-6ish hours. Plus I'm going to get paid for it. So it's awesome experience action featuring monies. Here's hoping I can hold on to something after it all!

Dictations... I "trained" using alt + tab and cntrl + p, a lil different from the normal method (which I think is a pedal) so should be interesting. Managed to take tomorrow off as a personal day so won't be rushing about, can get a decent lie in, and pr0 suited up.

Sent out a shitload of CV's/cover letters yesterday directly to firms. Got an email from one firm (John Hooper) asking me to ring them. Did so and John Hooper asked me to down to the offices tomorrow so they can see what I can do. They asked me to come in at half 8 but since I'm working I managed to get it pushed back to 11.15. Excited, but not trying to get my hopes up as well. Mainly because I'll probably have to start work earlier so I can finish earlier so I can make myself look more presentable than a Tesco uniform. Any idea what they'll try and get me to do Blade?

The majority of that appears to be music from the first game. And although it still sounds nice. It doesn't sound "the same", if that makes sense.

You change them dorrah to Pound Sterling NOW.

Hmmm... Banjo Kazooie music done by an orchestra... Not really feeling that. I can imagine it losing that feelz.

Decided to fork out for: "*DIGITAL DELUXE EDITION!* DIGITAL GAME, SOUNDTRACK, RETRO MANUAL + ART BOOK The full digital package! A code to download the final version of Yooka-Laylee, plus a digital soundtrack, digital retro manual and a special digital art book. Includes all previous rewards!" Not sure if by digital code it means PC only, but I use my PS4 controller on my PC for Final Fantasy VIII, which can accomodate a Banjo Kazooie style game easily. Mainly went for this for the soundtrack, which will be awesome.
