I finally decided to try giving this a go but I honestly don't know see how it can work. I think I've gone through 50 profiles and everyone appears to be looking for someone that either has a lot of money or is over 6 foot and extremely good looking. If anyone has actually managed to successfully meet anyone from a dating site please give...

I hate waiting for my grades, especially now I'm a post graduate student and my continued education depends on maintaining a B average. I know I've passed my paper but having to wait over a month to find out if I managed at least a B- is annoying.
I ran my first marathon yesterday. I can't really say my time was great (6 hours 4 minutes) but atleast I finished. I got half way in my best time for the half marathon this year but I was running with a strained ankle and even with it strapped after 24kn my body was screaming at me so I'm really glad I didn't quit and...

I'm still not sure whether I like the new site or not. I was a little annoyed to find out with the new follow set up a lot of the people I had bookmarked are gone and I have to go click follow on their profiles. Other then that the only thing that's a bit of a pain is not being able to clear something...

As some of you may remember I have been training all year for a marathon to help raise money for the heart foundation. Well I had been training till my cheapskate self got injured for not buying new running shoes soon enough. If you know what shin splints are you can probably understand how painful and annoying they are since the only way for it...

Yesterday I had my first ever drug test to prove I did not indulge in certain illegal past times as well as a health check. I am hopeful this means that since the company I applied to has gone to the expense of paying for this it means they are going to offer me a contract.
I really haven't been up to much else except...

So I had a job interview yesterday for a pretty major food company. Sadly the job is in merchandising and not the science department but any experience in the industry is worth getting I guess.
It seem to go quite well even if it was held in a carpark because the cafe I was supposed to meet the interviewer in wasn't open. I was told...

I am not having a good day.
Last night someone hacked into my paypal account and tried stealing $98US from me.
Then this morning the tire on my car I paid $20 to repair yesterday burst, luckily the shop gave me a discount for not spotting the damage to the tire yesterday but I still had to pay $89 for a new tire. This of...

Yay I've got a job interview on Tuesday
scarlettxx:
Good luck

Good luck! Where in NZ are you?
Well I guess army life isn't going to be for me for a while. I ended up catching a virus a couple days before I had to take my fitness exam and they couldn't reschedule so now I have to wait another year before I can reapply.
I have made it to stage two of recruitment into the NZ Army reserve. I'm really hoping I pass the medical requirements and make it to stage three. In the mean time I have to up my training effort so I'll be ready for the fitness test.

I've never heard of that around here. But like i told my boss .. if the dm suddenly decided to change her mind, i still wouldn't want to work there because i refuse to work in an environment again where the dm and i don't get along (like at my last, seven year job).
I applied to join the New Zealand army reserve today.
Here's a hint about what field I applied for
Sappers by Rudyard Kippling
When the Waters were dried an' the Earth did appear,
("It's all one," says the Sapper),
The Lord He created the Engineer,
Her Majesty's Royal Engineer,
With the rank and pay of a Sapper!
When the Flood come along for an extra...
