    Girls Aloud Album is #1

    So my new band Girls Aloud's album is now number one in the UK! I am claiming this victory as my own due to my dream. It was clearly my singing and dancing abilities at the concert I dreamed about. Their (our) single "The Promise" is number 3 here. Check it out here!!!

    I am going to personally claim this as thanks to me because I have no other employment options at the moment. ha. I worked the rugby game last night pouring pints. Awesome! There were some amazingly hot Kiwis (New Zealanders) there because it was NZ versus Scotland. Of course Scotland got murdered because the All Blacks (NZ) are the best in the world. MASSIVE men, but some of their faces look about 12. Before the game a pipe band paraded into the stadium in front of the SCO team's coach. I hope they have extra large coaches for these guys because their legs are massive. However, one of my work-mates said they only come from their hotel...which is probably one of the fancy ones in the city centre which is about a mile away. ha.

    I am working another rugby game next week, so that's some extra cash. We pour 12 pints at once with MDUs (multi-dispensing units). They are awesome. You fill a tray with 12 plastic pint glasses, lift a lever to put the cups near the taps, push a button to fill them half way, push it again to fill them completely, pull the lever to lower the glasses, and there you have 12 perfect pints! Amazing. The six hours I was there went fairly quickly because we were CONSTANTLY pouring pints. We were really busy before the game. By the time we caught up it was half-time. Eek. Despite it being cold and rainy, people stood in the queue to get a beer for ages. There is no way I would have done that...especially since the beer was £4.50.

    So I guess that's all for me now. I just turned in my rough draft of my article. Well let's say it's really rough, but I'm not really enjoying this now. I kind of just want to be done with this topic and working on something else, but they have paid me so I have to get something out. I think I'm too stressed about this lame job search. Graham thinks as soon as I get my visa I should have an easier time, but I am also starting to look for jobs in the USA (much to my disappointment).
