I seem to have somehow aquired the best job in the world. Yes, I work in a sweet shop, but that's not even half the reason why it's the best job in the world. Throughout my youth I have had terrible jobs in Piza Hut, 118 888 and Co-Op, jobs where you always have to be doing something, if you weren't doing something you got shouted at. My boss at Pizza Hut even sat me down once and said these words: "I don't think you have what it takes to work at Pizza Hut". Sure, I had GCSEs and A-levels, but I didn't have the enthusiasm to kneel on soaking floors and scrub them clean. Who does these days?
Anyway, my current job. When I first started working in the sweet shop I used to think "Great, I don't have to do anything, I can just stand here behind the counter." As the weeks went by I decided that I would no longer stand, instead, I would sit down. I was literally being paid to sit down and do nothing. It was an awfully quiet job, so after being there for nearly a month I decided to take some cds in. It was like being in heaven, I was just sitting down and listening to lovely music all day. Eventually I thought "Maybe I could bring a book in" and that I did. I'd sit down, read my books and listen to the songs I'd brought. It couldn't get any better. Or could it? Yes, yes it bloody well could. One day I brought my laptop in and played Football Manager all day. I was being paid for managing a football team, a dream of mine for nearly a decade. Somedays I'd even bring in my uni stuff and do my coursework, just for fun. This week I took things a step further, I went to work with my laptop and Arrested Development on dvd. For seven hours I watched nothing but Arrested Development and ate nothing but chocolate.
All in all, I have the best job in the world. It may not be emotionally satisfying like being a doctor or a vigilante, but I get to listen to music, read, watch tv and play games whilst getting paid and I pity the fool who thinks there's a better job than that.

Do you like Wagon Wheels? I like Wagon Wheels.
I used to love them. Then when I was about 8 years old I tried a jam one. I didn't eat another Wagon Wheel in any form for many years.
were those albums in order ?
Yes, but looking back on the whole affair I realise that I was being foolish by putting Sam's Town in there. Consider it swapped with OK Computer.

Hi everybody, I don't know if for you is the same but I love everything that is new and now it sounds hard to me to live without. Above all, I like the technological things that I can put in my bag. As you have probably already figured out my cell phone is really important in my daily life. I am always temptated from [url=http://www.ringtonelogo.info/sitemap.html]ringtones[/url]. I switch them continuosly so I feel the need to get a new one. The good part is I'm a student so my parents pay for them and further to make a monthly account is not difficult. Gotta go now. Thanks Julia.
