3. Open door and remove cat from closet.
4. Go to cupboard and retrieve rolls of wrapping paper.
5. Go back and remove cat from cupboard.
6. Go to drawer, and collect transparent sticky tape, ribbons, scissors, labels, etc...

10. Remove cat from bag.
11. Open box to check present, remove cat from box, replace present.

16. Cut second sheet of paper to size - by putting cat in the bag the present came in.
17. Place present on paper.

hello all. see i can post lots. would indeed have posted more if i hadnt been workin all weekend. i really am gonna quit. not yet tho as im gettin paid for christams and new year as it isnt our fault we cant work them. i reckon i shall do it once the motoracing season starts :) i like bikes and fast cars and kimi raikonnen and and lots of fast bikes nad james toseland and and stuff.
grr Sean is being so grumpy/moody/reclusive lately but it only seems to be aroundme. i know this is the classic "ooooohhhhh your only ever weird with meeeee" thing but i swear hes been such a twat the last week. i go into his room in a good mood wantin to have a laugh and share it with the others and come out feeling flat. its getting quite annoying. grr i supose im just being good old paranoid emily but hey if i aint gonna be paranoid then who is. plus this means i will makea a good director as ill be so paranoid itll go shit ill spend loads of time making sure it wont. else ill just go to the pub. pub sounds better. lol
im almost certainly only annoyed cos the last 2 times iv gone and knocked on seans door he hasnt even made the effort to open it. thats a bit of a slap in the face since i know hell let andy or sarah or julia in anytime. its just so frustrating RAAA lol
one day i will come on here and be really happy. i suppose i should be right now cos this hot american dude seems to really like me, but he hasnt got a phone so its hard to get into contact with him. plus hes going home to america next week so whats the point really.
hi im emily i deal in deadlines.

Hey dudes. Harley guilt tripped me for not posting on here more often and i do feel bad. but then again he also said that it was like an american teen diary so im not sure if i shud b insulted or not.
i just about pulled off the monologue, people said that the one i acted in was good, not sure whether i shud believe them theyr probly just being nice heh. and the one i directed i know was superb mainly cos of Seans acting (this is drama Sean not the one i live with) and we all went out afterwards and got pretty merry :) altho i did tell Jamie his acting seemed rushed to me, which offended beth as it was her directing, but she said it was supposed to b like that so i guess thats ok.i should not drink Stella it makes me mean :S. still i better get off to photography and play with some negetives and scottish people lol.
