The lady on the other end seemed very pleasant when I told her what I was after and she asked me a few questions and said she was happy to invite me down for the initial interviews. Inside I was thinking 'Yes!' and when she told me the times for interviews, which were today or Thursday, I figured I'd be keen and tell her the today one would be fine. As soon as I got the information and put the phone down I thought about things, and something stuck out to me as worrying; I have no smart clothes! I had a shower, picked out a shirt and some trousers from my wardrobe but knew they wouldn't do. I had just over 2 hours til the interview, so I got in the car with loads of stuff and headed to the local retail park. Went to about three shops before I had my stuff picked out and I had some smart clothes for £24 because of discounts. Also, might as well mention this, but for some reason I got a 20% discount instead of the regular 10%. I think it was a cashier error, but I didn't say anything and neither did he. That was a nice piece of luck.
I drove down to my dads and changed there, did my hair some and then made my way to the office. Boiling hot and me wearing black wasn't a great combination, but I did the best with it. Because the offices were under renovation, didn't find the office straight away but eventually did. Greeted by the woman there, and basically had to fill out a load of application forms. Eventually we talked about work expoerience and the actual job and then she delights me by telling me I am being put forth for the job! Interview is on tuesday and job starts the week after, if I get it. I'm resting so much on this job though, so if I don't get it I'm gonna be screwed :s And to put an extra boost into my day, my friend texted me and told me that the BBQ he'd been planning for the last few days, WAS going to be tonight after all, so I went and had a great time! Just don't tell anyone we dropped one of the sausages... :D
So moving on to the real reason you came here, the video of the day. I'm going straight into it; here is the dude with the brush, Bob Ross. Even if you have to just put it on in the background, do it because his voice is so soothing it's mad. Shame he passed away though :(
Comedy bonus video!
Done, now because I love you all so much, I'm going to give you another special photo of myself. You may only view it as long as you promise not to stalk me.
Me and my good friend Catherine a.k.a Cat from the hit radio show duo Sam and Cat.
Something only remotely amusing from the BBQ yesterday. I pull up in my loud car to the house, and just as I am getting out, my phone rings.
"Hey dude, we're having a BBQ today."
"Oh really? I'd love to come, just gimme a second to get there."
"A second? I thought you lived..."
And then I walk into the garden. Muahaha! Nearly as bad as me sitting in my room and getting a phone call from my mum's mobile.
"Hey Russ, are you over your dads?"
"No, why, where are you?"
"I'm in the house... why?"
And then I step into the lounge where she is standing and bursts out laughing. Muahaha!
And finally a music choice for the day. I've been trying to find this band, and the closest I've come is amazon, but can't be bothered to pay their prices because they're so ridiculously high. I've decided to buy the album off iTunes but I don't feel right without getting a CD. Anyway, said band is called The Trews and they're a funky blend of rockpop and alternative.
And finally a link of the day, which is becoming more and more of stretch to keep calling it that due to my manic update schedule. Maybe I'll call it simply 'Link of the ___' and put today's day in the blank. Or maybe, just maybe, i've though too much about this and nobody cares.
Which Celebrity do you look like?
