PGCE- to teach art and design? Cool- good luck. Couldn’t cope with dem kids myself. What’s the topic of your diss?- Cjx

Ummm… Yes. The fact that I hate kids and have no interest whatsoever in their education might well be a factor i’ll leave out of my personal statement.. It’s a contingency. For every job in the ad industry, there are 15 kids on the dole. Not a good statistic.
My d word is on the changes in rhetoric of American print advertising over the past few decades, and whether those changes have been ethical or not. Geeky, but way interesting. Just been asked by one of the staff here to consider doing my masters. I’d totally love to, but Dundee is making me crazy. How’s thing’s with you, hon? x

Going good thanks. I’d totally recommend doing masters but don’t expect it to increase your employablitly much. PGCE definitely a better root if you actually want to get a job he he
But if you really hate kids I wouldn’t consider it!

Aah, I’m joking. My course director asked me to do a design competition with a bunch of 12-13yr olds this time last year. I loved it. Up until then, i’d have never considered teaching. It’s one of those jobs I don’t think i’d get bored of. Every day would be different, and from what I hear regardless of school, you get as much back from the kids as you give them.
Add to that, 12 weeks holiday a year, 20k salary to start off with, and enough time spare to properly give freelancing a go, and you gots my reasons. I do want to give the masters/Ph.D thing a stab though.. Although more inclined to go for business/marketing. Later on though.
And obviously, I want to nail myself a hot lookin PE Teacher too.

Hot looking PE Teacher? Interesting choice. They actually never change out of those tracksuits, you know that, right? And what about hot looking English teachers? Eh?

My cat’s breath smells of cat food.

Top tip: try rubbing half a lemon over your cat’s lips and tongue. You’ll be amazed at the citrus freshness!

My cat’s dead, actually. You’re rubbing half a lesbian on a decayed cat. *fap*

Lentghwise. Peperami stylee. What is that smell? Is it Fred or the cat? And how can you smell her breath? have you made her into an intricate set of bagpipes?
Cat bagpipes. It’s a niche market, but I like it.

so…. did you apply by the first or are you starbucks bound? I was thinking of applying for pgce (lagging behind a tad)… never really liked kids much either … though the strathclyde (joranhill) deadline isn’t until the 15th (apparently).

Yesterday in work we were discussing cruelly amusing things to feed to dogs (as practiced by our hard-hearted future-psycho childhood friends, not us Your Honour).
We couldn’t decide whether the winner was hard toffee (non-stop sugar-coated chewing) or vindaloo curry (non-stop lip licking).

I once gave a dog a saucer of extra strong fortified wine. That was pretty amusing. He was trotting back and forth to the saucer, sneezing himself off-course every two seconds, and shaking his head with violent determination. His name was Horace if that helps. Possible misquote of excellent related Profanisaurus: “Enthusiastic yet clumsy fellater: dog eating hot chips”. In summary, Milnes, you gots ta emails me, I gots a secrets and I needs your advices.

I think Milno must have posted the mail into an elephant’s bum because I can’t see it.

Probably. I am well-known for being a massively incompetent chump.

Milno. Come here and sit on my knee. Now listen, you are neither worthless, incompetant, stupid, pathetic, nor indeed a chump. Hear?
I’ve only ever heard good things about you. So there

You’ve cleared the spam, I didn’t randomly post to an old thread. How did you do in your dissertation Jilly? Mine is 15,000 words for two months time and I haven’t even started the research. How do you put everything else out of your mind to concentrate on the topic? Aggghh
