WHATS HAPPENING AROUND ABOUT NOW?

Hey guys, it is the 3rd July today and I've got a few things coming up over the next few days or even the next week.

Tomorrow is my school's leavers assembly for Sixth Form, which is me! So I have to go in at 9 for that so that should be nice to see everyone one last time. Also, tomorrow is also the day of our Sixth Form Prom, but, I'm not going. I used to be excited about going, I really did, like how my brother described his I was excited about going but since we've gotten a new head teacher it's just changed so I'm not going.

Another reason I'm not going is that, IT'S MY BIRTHDAY ON SATURDAY! Yes, just two days from now I turn the huge age of 18! I'm joking, it's not huge but it's a big birthday. I'm not having a party, unlike every other newly-turned 18 year old. I don't see the appeal in parties. I understand that everyone is happy and stuff but again, I don't see the appeal of bringing people over to my house or a venue, for me to watch them drink and get drunk on my behalf.. Even if they are my friends. Also on Saturday, I HAVE MY FIRST DRIVING LESSON! A present off of my parents. I'm nervous, but I'm excited at the same time.

Sunday, I doubt I'll be doing anything, probably just relaxing like Sundays are made for. :)

Monday, at 6-8pm me and my parents are going to a Work Familiarisation and Open Evening for my apprenticeship so I'm excited and nervous for that. 

So they're my plans for the next few days. What are yours? Or if you don't have any plans, what would you like to be doing over the next few days?

PRE JOB INTERVIEW NERVES

As you may or may not know, I'm currently in the middle of an application process to a company called Unilever and it's quite a big, global, Multi-brand organisation really.. 

Today was my interview day, and at 14:00 I got a call from a man called Mike Angell. And I was sh*tting one.. I don't like interviews, my heart races and I can even hear it's beating, I get all flustered, I stutter.. It's just not a good environment for me. In preparation, I wrote 5 pages of things that might help with questions he might ask (telephone interview so he can't see me read off of it ;) )

Anyway, he asked the question, told me what happens next and so on.. I'll be earning 13,000pa ish and I'll be working 9-5 if I get it, which i hope i do.. He said that I'll get feedback fairly quickly and it'll simply say i have or haven't gotten through to the next stage..

On a good note though, I am hoping to finish Sixth Form tomorrow! So then i never have to go back unless it's an emergency with my work.. (Hopefully not!) I mean, I will miss it, I've been there for the past 7 years of my life and I'm just going to be leaving like that.. But my "legacy" (as the head teacher, soon to be principle says) will carry on once I have left as my badge will be used every single weekday for the next who knows how many years! :D

Have any of you guys got interviews coming up soon? Whether for University, Apprenticeships or Jobs? Are you nervous? And what do you do to prepare for them?
