I am so buggered as of late @_@ But this job is really looking like it could be a keeper :D More when I'm feeling alert! ♥

I do~ ♥♥♥

Yup, that's right, your favourite K-chan now has a job working for the Comedy Club right in the heart of the CBD (no more 15-20 minute tram rides crammed like a sardine!). The basic premise of the job is to sell tickets over the phone to potential customers, as well as doing a few hours pounding the pavement and approaching people on the street. So it's a mixture of telemarketing and face to face selling, so fingers crossed it works! After the three interviews I had this week, I was hoping that one of them would yield something! (And to be honest, I really wanted to get the Comedy Club one, 'cause it sounded like a lot of fun, and a job that I could really make something of if I just put my mind to it.)

So. This is how it all went down. On Wednesday, we had the interview (which was a group one, thank goodness!), and then Marilyn (who's also a consultant like us, but is sort of the unofficial team leader, I guess), asked us to come back for some basic training and a trial. Myself, Claire and Fez, three of the several who attended the Wednesday afternoon interview, went back yesterday afternoon, where we spent about three hours going through the basics of what we needed to know, before going upstairs to the call center to meet the other handful of consultants. And I kid you not, it's the smallest call center I've ever seen! Seriously, it's just a room set up with desks, some landline phones, as well as some office mobile phones, which the others were using to make their outbound calls. No computers, no headsets. It was very basic, but at the same time very fun looking as well.

So after listening to the guys (and yes, they were all guys, with the exception of Marilyn), I and the other two girls then jumped on the phones for about an hour and a half, so we could see if this was the sort of thing for us, and also for Marilyn to see if this was the sort of thing for us. At the end, at around, oh, say, 20 to 7, Marilyn called the three of us together, and said that she was confident that we could all make it, and that she would work with us to make sure that we met our goals. So we're going to be going in on Monday to hit the beach (it being a 41 degree day that day, I'm not surprised!) to try and drum up some sales, and to then have a swim afterwards XD They never did anything like that at AAMI! And the other guys are pretty cool as well :D So I'm thinking that this could definitely be a winner ^_^

♥♥♥ Yay! I has job! ♥♥♥

2009 was definitely a year of ups and downs, of first times and of last times. All I can say is, thank heavens it's over, and that 2010 is here. So far the new year hasn't been too bad, but it is only three days old, so let's not be counting out chickens before they've hatched, right?

( The year that was - it got a bit long! )

So that's the year that was '09. It had its ups and its downs, but on a whole, it hasn't been a bad year. Here's hoping that 2010 will be a better year for us all, right?

Oh, and my New Year's Resolution? Not to have one XD

And I'm still trying to think of a suitable name for a possible renaming. (not that I can really afford a rename token, but hey, I'm going to go for it XD). Any good ideas? I'd like to keep the "_-girl" theme if I can, though ♥

Luis, Yukina, I blame you both! Now I'm thinking of doing a name change!

*beats you both with a foam rubber bat*

HAPPY NEW YEAR~! <33333333333~!


Yes I know it's several hours after the fact over here, but hey, that doesn't matter XD

Dear Santa... Dear Santa, This year I've been busy! In January I ate my brussel sprouts (1 points). In February I put money in _megalomania_'s expired parking meter (14 points). In June xpriori and I robbed a bank (-50 points). In April I donated bone marrow to cynthia_harrell in a life-saving procedure (300 points). Last Tuesday I bought porn for ladyofthesea (10 points). Overall, I've been nice (275 points). For Christmas I deserve a Pony Slaystation 3! Sincerely, atemu_girl

Hope you like the porn, ladyofthesea~ I spent my hard-earned money searching for something you'd like ♥

Ever since losing my mum to breast cancer almost 8 years ago, any news about efforts to raise money for research/finding a cure have been very close to my heart. Please spread this and post it wherever you can ♥ Thank you!

Better start sleeping lightly, I think!

I've finally created a new fanfiction.net account, and have as of a few minutes ago, uploaded the first chapter of Broken Boundaries :D

http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2122309/

There be the link! I'll update the website link in my profile to direct any visitors to the site :D Feel free to friend me on FF.net, and to spread the word so I get me some exposure! :D

I have done it for another year! Now, can I pull it off next year? Well, we'll see :D But for now, I can bask in the glory of winning *grins* Yay!

This subplot I've come up with has really helped up the wordcount *grins* I just have to be careful not to let it overshadow the main bulk of the story. But I figured it was fair to delve a little into the mind of the main protagonist to see just how murky his mind is XD (Like father, like son, right?)

... doesn't mean I'm giving up! I've now set myself a goal of 100,000, so it's going to be interesting to see how much I can get done at the end of the month! :D



Of course, I have to wait till the 25th to make the 50k official, but at least I did it! And I have added so many twists that it's not funny *grins* And I'm only on chapter 18! (By the by, Matt, I might be needing that duel within the next week or so ^_^; Of course, there's no rush, but I thought I might let you know so you don't get caught out!)

And now I can relax! Well, a little bit. But at least I've done the 50k! Can I pull it off again next year? Well, we'll see XD

Oh yeah, I've got this one in the bag XD I dare say I'll have it whipped by the middle of next week or so XD Then I can slow down and start working on other projects :D

But I still manage to make up for it *grins*

Oooh, we're getting close, I can taste it!

Bahaha! I am flying along here!

Btw, Loki, I hope your plot bunnies are enjoying those laxatives *grins* They're going to be busy for a little while, methinks~!

I stalled a little bit on chapter eleven, but I did manage to get chapter 10 finished yesterday (in 34 degree heat, no less!) Hopefully today I can crack the 30k and be on my way towards finishing!

I am flying along here *grins* And while I doubt I'll be able to do my 50 in 8 days feat I did in '06, I am well on the way to pulling this off without a hitch :D

And yes, I know, I said I wouldn't be changing my layout again so soon, but this one is so pretty! I will definitely be sticking with this one for a while :D

Now we're getting somewhere *grins* And yes, I changed the layout again in only a matter of a week or so ^_^; I swear I'll stick with this one for a bit longer!

Eh, hit a slight snag as to how to introduce the next part of the plot, but at least I'm chugging along nicely! Let's hope tomorrow's a better day ^_^;;
