Just thought it be nice since year started March already (time goes quick) but how is the year going so far for you all

mine not bad, sent on a course with job center and will be getting a 4 week work placement where i will work hard in hope to impress and get a job from it.

That will be nice to get into a new work place and meet some new people. So 2010 might be well

For me its been very stresful. Only this year to ym regret have I realised how serious getting the right GCSE grades are. Trying to revise is difficult because i find it hard to remember so many things. Exams in May and find out my results in August (I think?).

Also need to find a part time job but haven't a clue what to do to find one and there aren't really any jobs that are avalible for me atmy age which I would enjoy doing or would be good at. Working in a shop seems to me like the dullest thing ever, but only ebcause I like to move about. Apparently data input is a job you can egt at ym age and that seems really easy. I suppose I could put up with the boredom of that but again, not a clue where to look.

Aside from those issues its been enjoyable. Haven't seen my family in the east end yet but will do around easter time which I look forward too. I'm not sure whether I will be able to drive when I turn 17 because they are changing the driving age and I'm not sure if you have to be 18 if you were born in 94 or 18 if you were born in 93. If I can id like to learn to asap. If I passed my test, done well in my GCSE's, got a enjoyable job with maybe Tottenham finishing in the top four or winning the cup than I really couldn't ask for more!

Bloody busy!!

Started new job about 3 weeks back, very early starts to beat the traffic, quite taxing while i find my feet and lots to teach as well as learn. The good lady is now only 9 weeks away from producing my son (Liam as he will be known) so frantically busy times lately getting the house ready and so forth for that.

Add to that the hyperactive tendencies and general attention required from my beautiful three year old, not to mention still trying to sell my dads house and as I say, 2010 will be remembered as the year of being bloody busy!!

Going well though (footy results excluded...)!!

I've enjoyed my son's footballing exploits... scored from the half-way line the other day with the most audacious volley. I'm turning into a very pushy parent _except_ to him - he knows I love watching him play, but reduce the pressure to zero in terms of any expectations. He always goes beyond it anyway.

Found a new football team to follow too, and strangely, a whole bunch of "new" friends and acquaintances where I live - in football circles - which is always good fun (although I'm starting to get a little grief for too much time spent on football). Balancing life, work and social life remains a challenge but can't say that 2010 has started at all badly.

I think I may of said this already but congratulations about having a son! (The final endorsment of my congratulatory trilogy will be when he is born)

Well so far its all good , playing PS3 is a nice hobbie where i can talk to mates online , reading PWI which seems really great ! Watching what I eat and trying to be more fitter and healthy ... School is alright , nothing too much exciting so far, looking forward to holidays in the summer going away with all the family

It's Ok. No different really from last year with going out, seeing friends/girlfriend, playing xbox, internet, work and doing coursework all the time. I presume this will be pretty much the story of my life until I move on to bigger things i.e marridge, babies, job, house etc...

i can see what you mean, i will have less time once i get my job and possibly a girfriend and in a few years in hope who knows moved onto new heights

Great start to the year so far. Loving this this stay at home dad lark, little man keeps me busy now he's figured out how to climb. Works going well and i'm up for a bonus in a few weeks. Had a lovely weekend in Dublin where I disovered Guinness and fell in love with it!. Stayed in a hotel near Croke Park and the place was great - i'd reccomend it to anyone. Now all i need to do is tackle tiling the bathroom - disaster awaits I fear!.
