Got offered a job after going through 2 interviews and a 8hr trial.

Unfortunately as the job started to be explained to me more and more, the more I feel I am not fit for the position due to a HUGE web development portion of the position and how they don't want someone who needs to go through a steep learning curve in order to get up to speed.

However I attended an interview yesterday that I am hopeful about. I rank it as a dream job and will cry if I don't get it and will cry if I do get it.

Fingers crossed. Want it so bad.

I just realised I made a few fuck-ups in it.

Felt sick over it.

Mixed up fonts that I was talking about in relation to one of their clients brand. Must've looked pretty stupid.

I also made a few good points and they seem'd to nod and agree every time I answered a question. So I'm hoping I made some sort of an impact.

I don't think I have wanted something so bad before and they said they were impressed and over whelmed (in a good way) with my enthusiasm that they gave me the first available interview spot.

/Fear induced rationalization.

Nothing like a good amount of stomach lining to clean up a toilet!

Love the burning feeling of it coming up through my throat.

Then after I was done, and recovering, a bloody gecko came charging at me from behind the toilet, scared the crap out of me. geckos are awesome though.

Thinking of doing something similar.

Might stuff the chicken with a little bit of cheese, crumb it and fry it off with some herbs. Then put some rice on, and let it boil with some lemon and thyme.

But seriously, it bothers me alot. It's a cultural gaming phenomenon and I've completely missed out.
