    Half a toffee apple at lunch,
    2 lollies,
    a chocolate mile,
    2 wraps for dinner,
    my sisters curry leftovers :pac:

    On the way back from school I felt a little bit peckish, so I found a nicely opened hedgehog, courtesy of roadkill, by the roadside. Dug in. Mmmmm.

    And that was my daily diet.


    Hedgehog innards taste good.

    Moving swiftly onwards:

    This time exactly a month ago I was sitting in my friends sitting room discussing my random t shirt. Thirty two minutes before hand I was leaving the bank with my sterling. In seven minutes my dad will ring me. Two minutes after he rang me again. In one hour and forty four minutes we shall leave. Our destination Belfast. At 10.41 I will ring somebody with my phone in the air. Not afraid is playing. This is the epic tale of an Eminem concert one month ago.

    I tried not having a present physically there on Christmas morning last year and it just wasn't the same. A tablet with USB:OTG would be of much more use to me.

    It's not that bad. I'm not hungry or anything. If I'm hungry, I'll eat.

    Most of what I used to eat was just for the sake of eating.

    I've had breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a treat.

    It doesnt matter how full you feel, a 1400 calorie deficit will send your body into starvation mode.

    Well, to be fair, I think I'm burning nowhere near that much calories.

    Do you not have any placements? When do you need the placement for? Have you thought about what you want to do when you leave school? Consider all those things first and then crack out the phone book :cool:

    Haha so much for all this talk of CVs and cover letters and shizz, I did all that but could've gotten my placement just as easily by walking in and asking haha :p

    Fitday.com gave me that figure based on my weight, height, age, and lifestyle.

    My own calculations are in and around there too, perhaps slightly lower.

    Dear Claire;
    My name is M and I am writing to you regarding Work Experience in the Irish Times. I got your contact details off a Transition Year website, Transition Year Help (http://www.transitionyearhelp.com/#!). I would be interested to do Work Experience with you as English is my strongest subject in school and I am very exited at the prospect of doing it with such a large newspaper. I enclose a copy of my CV and am open to any questions you need answered about it. My school currently offers Work Experience placements to us every Tuesday and I could send you a form to complete if you are interested in taking me on for some time.
    Thank you for your time,
    M

    Is this ok lads? Help us out :(
