    Starting to get excited about London now. :) I hope I like it, it's somewhere I'm seriously considering moving to in the future!

    You just need one break to get you out there. I remember that feeling when I first started looking for jobs at 16. Ended up working as a carer in a nursing home which in turn got me interested in nursing.

    Fingers crossed for you!

    I hope one comes soon! I dont think i could stick living with the mammy for a whole year!!

    Just need enough money for my masters or enough money to emigrate or something!

    I feel like i should have my own Concern tv ad... "Just 2 music students a week will ensure Fluorescence can afford food. 6 will allow her to pay for rent and internets. 15 students will ensure Fluorescence can save enough for next year's education. Have a heart - let Fluorescence teach you music!"

    :pac:

    have you applied to Waltons and stuff

    Lazy sunday, from start to finish! :)

    I'm envious of you starting 24 for the first time pal. Seriously good TV.

    I enjoy a quiet beer or 2 in the house now and again. Or a glass of vino!

    no sorry, can't stand the stockholm syndrome film

    You'll never make me stop loving Beauty and the Beast!
    retail or waitressing or baby sitting! Im flexible for any of them!

    The best thing about these kinds of jobs (from your point of view) is that they're very transient in nature; people constantly leave retail and catering jobs all the time so you should keep applying to the same places on a regular basis, you never know when something might open up. If you're looking in Dublin, keep an eye out for places whose business will pick up with summer tourist business as well, even museums, galleries, tour groups etc.

    I have to move all my stuff home from Dublin tomorrow, the effort of it! So glad to see the back of that apartment though, it was not fun!

    Steak for dinner, om noms :)

    It's the only film I've ever walked out of.

    I've been very good and haven't eaten white bread for nearly a week now- but I did make a sponge cake today and just had three slices. Oooops.
    Ah well- I regret nothing!! :p

    None right now, but I'm hoping to start in the next few months. I reckon I'll offer tin-whistle, flute and piano to grade 5 level and theory to grade 8. I need to iron out a lot of details first before I could plausibly start :o

    that was Year One, also awful. 10,000 BC has ridiculously pretty cavemen fighting sabretooth tigers, or something, I watched it while only half paying attention to it, twas awful.

    Wow. You is talented! :)
    I did 3 years of piano lessons in Waltons from when I was about 22, got to grade 4 and then gave up. It's one of the things I most regret. :(
    When I have my life sorted out, I will go back! :D

    my grandmother is always at me to start teaching music :rolleyes:
    zero interest
    i play for me

    My dad has been on at me for the last 10 years to teach music. Even after I quit piano classes after grade 6 and insisted I had no interest in pursuing it other than a hobby. He still bangs on about 'ah but would you not go back and do your teaching cert?' Eh? No.

    Pixie-Fairy would you consider working as an au-pair in Ireland? I was offered a live-out job with one family in a good area in South Dublin a few weeks back for about 700 per month. I couldn't take it because it was too low for me, I have to pay own baby-related expenses etc. and would have the cost of living wlsewhere but it could be ideal for someone without a family. Just as an idea - I was potentially being offered a double room with an en-suite and sky, wi-fi, phone access for free. I would also have had use of a car, meals provided, right next to main bus routes etc. and €700 per month on top of that. The work isn't bad either, about 20hours per week looking after two school age kids, light housework basically just tidying up after them, putting on the odd wash and making their lunches and 1/2 nights babysitting per week, dropping them to summer camps, play dates and the rest. Might be worth looking into :)
