h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

JUST KIDDING!!! I'm in a theatre show, I work backstage, which really has nothing to do with my tan lines per se, but takes up a lot of my time.

OoOoO Cheating! ;p Hey, you gotta do what you gotta do.. I think I got sunburned today chilling by the pool with my mom.. But hey, it means I'll get tanner quicker.. Whee!

-pete

I burn then tan, my mum never burns and just tans and my dad just burns, then peels. Now, he's blonde and we're brunette so I can sort of see the logic but it made holiday sun tan lotion requirements difficult!

Your job sounds very excellent, tell me more or I will have to think up some decent questions myself...

It's not my paying job but it's what I do to get experience so I can eventually get paid for it.. It's a surrealist one act about a teacher who eventually kills his pupil.. Very odd.

Suntan lotion? What's that? Just kidding.. I usually don't use it.. which means I'm going to get skin cancer eventually.. but for now I have cute freckles! ;p

I'm slightly neurotic about sun protection - have a new moisturiser with a high spf for my face when I'm running now. I think it makes you sweat more, which is a bit of a pain.

The work experience sounds cool - I would deeply love to do some unpaid for a newspaper, but they're never too hot on unexperienced youngsters like myself.

Yuck - sweating is a pain in the butt. Hey, least you're trying to stay healthy and such

They seem to be pretty tetchy about that in the journalism business.. I'm lucky to be working in college theatre, where they'll take what help they can get.. Are you in school?

-pete

Yes, I'm in the lower 6th form, just done my AS levels (well, as in a few months ago and will get my results mid-August)

This time's weird, because we break up from school on Friday and really have sod all to do, but we still have to attend.

So you're almost done and ready for uni (I think, is that right??) Hope you get good results!

That's odd, I know after our graduation there was still a week left of school and they just let us go.. Weird. But hey, at least you get to see your friends and such..

=pete

Good point, but many of them are playing their musical instruments in the "Primary School Tours", and doing some work experience. Still, aside from the english essay I have to write today it isn't too bad.

Do you at least get time off over the summer?

Auw, sucks that they are busy and such.. Dunno, I got v. attached to my high school in the last few weeks of school..

I just finished up my summer break actually.. School doesn't start until the end of August but I'm working on a play now.. So not much summer left for me.. ;p

=pete

school holidays = great. though, never as long as they sound when you're at school.

I've had loads of work on, also working tomorrow then monday. Pretty filled up until mum and dad get back on Wednesday. Damn, I need to clean the house!

What's with all the work, hon?


School holidays are lovely, I want mine back!! Although I'm abstaining from any and all things resembling work today.. 'Cos it's my 5 month anniversary with Chad!! And I'm a happy girl..

=pete

Happy anniversery!! They rock, I hope you get all of the chocolate your heart desires.

I have loads of work on because I have 2 jobs, because I need the money. But it's working out better now, I've sorted my hours out now. It's heavy workload friday --> monday (inclusive) then I have tuesday, wednesday and thursday off (aside from possible overtime!)

anyways, it's all good now.

I did.. it was great

Yucky.. Glad you get to have some days off though!!



Eek.. I just got caught at Chad's house without him there by his brother.. I wonder what is going to happen..

=pete

in his house without him there? unless you were surrounded by floating candles reclining in a bath then I think you have some explaining to do!

Unless if you were stealing their milk. because that's always okay.

Well Chad knew I was there!
He had to work early and said I could sleep in since I didn't work til 5.
but apparently there is no problem so eh..
I actually leave that place cleaner than when I came, so yeah!
His brother just has an attitude problem.. ;p
=ptg

*All* brothers have an attitude problem - mine especially!

Mum and dad are back early tomorrow morning ao I have been working my ass off to get the place tody and get all the clothes washed (not to mention doing 2 jobs!) and my brother (who is on the dole) has managed to hang up the washing once. I apologise if I've already whinged about this!

good news - mum and dad MUST be bringing me some chocolate back from their holiday. pleasepleasepleaseplease

I hear ya! (got two)

Eep! Dangit brother of Peaches..

I wish you lots of

Prays with you.

=ptg

yay, mum and dad came back and brought chocolate! Which is now almost no-chocolate. Ah well.

How are you enjoying the summer thus far?

WOOHOO !!

My summer's lovely... Well, the two days a week I get it.. Last night I stayed up until all hours (930 AM) and slept late.. It was great Just working on theatre, preparing mentally for school and looking forward to the Highland Games..

And you?

=ptg

Sorry this has taken a while! I've been busy with work, and looking after my little (5 year old) cousin who is visiting from Cornwall. She knows my phone number so I never get a second's peace! She is lovely though, a proper little mate.

how have you been?
