New blog...NOW (again)

For those of you wondering aboot the title, see other blog below.

So yes, back home I am. Not much has happened since my return. Well:

1) My laptop died. Currently I'm on my mums. Well it died before I left but now I'm sure it is long term. Hardware problem unfortunately. After only appearing with a blank screen when switching on multiple times, I gave it a rough smack and it SPRANG INTO LIFE....only to tell me it was dead for good. Good ole dell, cheap as chips for a reason. I'm waiting for the never ending sales to hit so I can get another a bit more cheaply. Not sure how Dell sales work at Christmas however... will have to keep an eye out. Macs are £800+!! Never knew. I guess people buy them because they last for ages(?)..

2) Getting paid £100 a week which is pretty nice. After expenses it leaves me able to do a bit here and there. Hopefully the position I'm in now will be full time and paid in March I've been told... I'll keep you updated.

3) Had an interview today to be a parliamentary aide. Didn't do too well and apparently the MP in question had 270 applications for the position!! So I'm expecting a no. Ultra annoyingly I was asked questions on interesting topics like AV (alternate voting) and the Palestinian/Israeli conflict but knew nothing on them. Saying that, I work with the current vice chair of the Anti-AV campaign for all of the UK for our party. And STILL I gave a rubbish answer. Real dent to my confidence, I hear a lot about the con's to AV too. Still, I guess I need more practice. Hate needing more practice in anything. I'm getting too old. I should be good at everything by now.

Saying that, French and Spanish have disbanded for Xmas, I plan to work on them daily from this weekend. I'm boring like that. Also more guitar...

Anyways, I need sleep for work. I can assure you I will speak to thee before Christmas time. Stay tuned!

Cya Soon

P.S. I will do a political blog about a new policy I recently heard that I like the sound of - getting rich prisoners to pay for their time in prison.
