23rd/24th

My god, I feel like a bag of crap. My sleeping pattern has gone crazy these past few days. I was up till 7am with a friend of mine on skype literally falling asleep at my desk. I then woke up at 6pm that day. I went to bed at 2:30am and woke up at 3pm on the afternoon of the 23rd.

I went out to dinner with some family, had a good laugh and a great meal. Later that evening I headed to the Vue cinema complex with some friends to see "Paul". We found the film absolutely hysterical and I'd advise anyone who hasn't seen it to go watch it, its definitely worth the money.

I got in around 11:30pm, with a couple of 6 packs of Budweiser, some doritos, salsa dip & other munch for the Sabres game. The first game of the Pegula era and it was a hell of a game! Buffalo pulled out a 4-1 win and outplayed the Thrashers in every aspect of the game.

Its now 3:32am and im sat here wide awake wondering if theres anything else worth putting in here before I close it...

Oh - actually, check out this video. I heard this on the radio today and fell in love with this song, its incredible!

Thats all for now, goodnight all! <3

So.... it turns out Blizzard are dumbasses. I just spotted this online and bagged myself a free copy of Starcraft2. Not that I've ever played SC2 but a few friends of mine love it so I thought what the heck.

The steps are as followed;

1. Make a new account on battle.net
2. Choose to be from Netherlands (!!!!)
3. Choose games to buy (classic WoW and gametime for wow dosen't work, but expansions, diablo II and all the other work)
4. Go to pay.
5. Choose "Automatish ingrosso bank" as payment. 
6. Bankname can be anything, baknnumber can be any numbers, but it must be 7 numbers! Name of banknumberowner can also be anything.
7. Buy it!


If it still works, enjoy!

300!

Forget, this is Sparta. THIS.IS.AWESOME!

The last 5 followers seemed to take forever to get, but I've pulled it off and hit 300 at last.

A massive thank you to each and every one of you! <3

Rebound!

Watching the Sabres game at the moment so this has probably taken me an hour to finish.

So after yesterdays fail & day full of anger I took a few hours to analyse my options and hunted around online for any available jobs or any form of opportunity in the local area. I've settled on an apprenticeship in Customer Services.

I'm waiting for the application form to come through the mail. A little info on it - It gives a Level 2 NVQ in Customer Services, pays £95 a week and it 35 hours a week. Like all apprenticeships you learn on the job so it should be a great challenge for me. It lasts for 36 weeks which equates to 9 months.

My plan now... Complete this and then re-apply for Saga. Except this time - Apply for a Customer Service Agent rather than a Sales Agent.

I hope you're all having a good day & once again a big thank you to all my followers.

Happy Hockey Day!

GOD DAMNIT.

Short entry today, really not in the mood to be insightful and stuff.

I dont often get written mail, the reason being I do everything online, like most people these days. However today I had a letter come through which turned out to be from Saga.

Dear Gavin BLAHBLAHBLAH

"We're sorry, you were unsuccessful on this occasion"

WHAT THE FUCK.

I have a favor to ask.

As I sit here wondering what to write today, I look back at some of the things I've done since the new year.

One of the main highlights was starting my own YouTube channel in an attempt to become a vlogger. I'm not quite sure why, but I enjoy sharing my day, certain moments & my life in general with other people. After the channel failed pretty hard to get off the ground (due to lack of me knowing how to promote through YouTube) I created this blog instead.

Obviously the added bonus with E-Blogger is the whole Ad sense, monthly revenue that comes with it, so in a way you're rewarded for your efforts be it a massive amount or very little.

Heres the cheeky part. I know you guys are doing so much for me at the moment. Taking the time to read my daily blog, following, commenting and everything else you do and I cant thank you all enough. Could you go to my youtube channel (listed below) Subscribe, watch a couple of videos and give me some thumbs up?

If any of you guys have channels I'll be more than happy to check them out, return the favour ect.

In the meantime, have a great day!

Make or break!

Good afternoon / evening!

So, today was the day of my interview with Saga. I set 4 alarms last night all to go off at 9am which included an alarm on my pc. Speakers left on full and "Lights out" by the greatest band on the planet Breaking Benjamin ready to echo through my house. Needless to say... I woke up.

Spent the next hour and a half getting ready. Bath, shave, gel hair, iron clothes & get my phone, iTouch and wallet together. Hopped on the 11:22 train from Ramsgate to Folkestone and was well on my way.

This'll sound a little odd - There are two sides to Folkestone, the city central side and the rest of Folkestone. My assessment last week was in the city central side which for the most part was a nice area... the rest of Folkestone, isnt.

After navigating my way round I stopped off at a Tesco (superstore) ate literally as much as I could and with Saga being literally seconds away from where I was, I didn't have to worry about being late. I arrived at the reception 15 minutes early (interview was scheduled for 2:30) just to show I've got good timekeeping skills.

Carl (the interviewer) came down, greeted me and we then headed upstairs into one of the many offices in the call centre. It started out with the usual questions, "Did you get here okay" & "how are you?" and then the real questions came flooding on. I had solid answers for pretty much everything although a couple caught me off guard. Eg-  "What do you think the difference will be from serving customers over the phone rather than face to face" .... Well in all honesty not a lot other than I cant see them..

My leadership skills were questioned. What kind of leader am I? Am I competitive, ect.

I wont relay off the details but I'll leave you guys to work it out. I've played sports my entire life, American football for 4 and field hockey for 6. Along with a shedload of others throughout high school. I was asked what motivates me. To which I responded "Being told I cant do something, people thinking they're better than me and the sheer burning passion to out do and out play everyone I ever compete against."

All in all, I think the interview went really well & I should find out within the next couple of weeks whether I've got the job or not! :D
