    Haha, love the last line. :L Yes, I am very childish. :)

    I dunno. I've sent some emails and gotten no replies... but one saying they were all booked up. NOTE TO SELF: Ring about work experience tomorrow!

    I rang one place and they said "email me your details to blah blah blah." [Dunno why I had to email the person I was actually on the phone to, but still...] They spelled it out and everything to make sure I had gotten the address right.
    So I emailed it straight away... and the email address didnt exist. :/ That was like two weeks ago and I still havent gotten around to ringing back. Been too busy. Hoping [but assuming otherwise] that they're all booked up at this stage...

    I dont even know our dates yet. They haven't said. I'm just guessing from previous years...

    I don't have my dates yet goddamnit >.>. I need to get those quickly so I can apply.

    Thinking I'll fire out some applications to crazy places (Google, RTÉ...) and some to a few... safer options (offices, shops etc.).
