The new building looks amazing. I used to work in the Harland and Wolff docks (Belfast Titanic Quarter) and drove past it every morning.

My office was about 30ft from the Titanic dry dock, used to be a load of tourists about all the time.

I have the most huge, stupid work experience diary to fill in. Of course I was meant to fill it in every day after placement but I didn't bother so now I have it all to do in one go. And it's due tomorrow. Love my life right now!

good luck with that! work experience diaries are the bane of any college course that involves work placement!

got a check today for tax back from 2010! I'd gone to the tax office last week about getting tax back from last year, and I hadn't earned enough to pay tax. So I was surprised to get tax back for 2010, guess they must have looked at that year and decided to give me money! Woohoo!

Oh Novella I know the feeling... After my final placement I left my diary until the last minute and had over 50 pages left to do over the last 2 days. I finished it at 7am on the day it was due, got a couple of hours sleep and got the bus to Athlone to hand it in.

I'm not long awake so I'm gonna change the clothes on my bed, put new ones on the fold-out bed my bf uses, tidy my room, have a shower, knit and watch the United game later.

I'm going to Belfast Thursday week for Titanic weekend and there is my first stop! I don't think that my poof boyfriend is looking forward to it tbh! I haven't stopped talking about Titanic in months! This is the best year ever for me! I have been obsessed with titanic since I saw the film aged 7. I have mountains of books, DVDs, documents etc on the ship and it's stories! I just wish that more movies/shows would tell the real stories and not make ones up that are nowhere near as interesting!

My friend's aunt bought me a vodka and Red Bull despite me telling her that I don't drink, I have to be up at 5 tomorrow morning and have a long day of college and studying and a moot tomorrow night so I need to be fresh anyway. I politely declined and then she held my nose and went to pour some of it in my mouth...not appropriate at all! Seriously, what the hell? Why couldn't she understand that I didn't want it!? I ended up getting really pissed off and left quite early, especially because even more people felt the need to comment/call me dry. The fact I was singing karaoke when sober seemed to pass them by completely. Ugh, this is why I prefer going out in Dublin, everybody leaves me the hell alone and if anyone comments it's usually in jest.

That woman has absolutely no cop on IMO.

She needs to grow up and get a grip. Forcing someone to drink? If anyone did that to me I'd have very little to do with them after it tbh. There is no excuse for her behaviour, she should be ashamed of herself.

Yay, Wrestlemania! I'd say the bf and his friends are like children haha. They're all huge fans of The Rock. He's looking very well I must say. Yum yum.

Thanks Jane, I'm OK now though.

What upset was so so stupid.

My dad and his family (parents, siblings, siblings partners, nieces/nephews and my (half) siblings) are all gone/going away on a family holiday to see other family member and I am the only one (on my dad's side) not going. None of them even asked me about me going.

I was meant to phone dad yesterday, but when I text him to ask him to log into Skype so I could ring him he text back that he was out with the dog he'd be home shortly so I text him back and asked him to text me when I could ring and I heard nothing from him until one o'clock when he text me to say he had last minute packing to do which is why he hadn't text me.

It's just like he is putting them before me, it's so silly because they are his family too and just the fact that I am the only one not going in a way it just make's me feel left out. It's so so stupid and I don't know why it's getting to me and upsetting me so much when it shouldn't. They

This reminds me of when I was a toddler and I was sitting/standing on a chair at the table and it was my birthday and the cake was in front of me so I decided to put my finger in the flame and then started crying when it hurt but I refused to take my finger away from the flame in case it hurt more.

Another time I was sitting on the bottom of the stairs and I'd gotten hold of a lighter and set me hair on fire.

I started screaming and mam came running out and saw me there crying/screaming with a flame on the top of my head.

[QUOTE=Stench Blossoms;77902820]I remember once going to the ATM and getting the dreaded 'Insuffcient funds' message. I started talking to the machine saying 'EH What do you mean insufficient funds? ive loads of money'.

Congratulations.

Going to do more cooking today, making Spinach and potato soup and for dinner I am making chicken with streaky bacon wrapped around it and I'm making a mushroom sauce to go with it. Hope it's nice.

There's a new tv series coming out isn't there, I'm pretty sure they wanted to keep it more real and tried to be true to what the real people were like. It's made by the guy behind that pre ww1 tv series (gosford park?)

I'm just sitting here writing a really boring essay when I get a text from boy from class : "I know you're probably really stressed so I bought you 3 kinds of Ben and Jerry's for later. It seemed to make you happy last time (:"
