Always read the label

We get free orange juice at work and I didn't know!!! 
So, while at work on Saturday night/Sunday morning, I was drinking lots of orange juice 
It was sooo quiet at work, so I got paid for standing there, wiping the bar and talking to people 
I was waiting at the bus interchange on my way to work and there was a big group of 15/16 yr old skin heads/no-hopers/bogans with the usual ‘freaky child predator 25+ year old guy’ thrown in for good luck. They thought they were pretty cool drinking alcohol, smoking and making a lot of noise at a BUS INTERCHANGE at 9pm. Is it just me or is that incredibly lame?
Once I earn enough money to actually pay tax, these are the types of idiots I’ll have to support. Yes, Australia is a great country; have no education or job and don’t want to get one? No problem! We’ll reward you with money 
I used to read a lot of books; books which I actually wanted to read. Now I just read uni text books *cry* I do read the labels on what I (or the cat) eat/s though...
Woah! Look at how much stuff is in this cake!! The text is sooo small so they could fit everything on the label.
This is a label on a loaf of bread. Fish is an essential ingredient?
You wouldn't want your Maccaroni Cheese, WITHOUT crustacean
Umm the pain ingredient is pork...
This is some salt from a packet of 2 minute noodles. Isn't the international colour for 'chicken flavour', green? Or, does an orange chicken=BBQ chicken?
And now for some other random stuff:
My sister is unfortunately STILL addicted to the OC She borrowed this 3 disc set from the library and it can only be borrowed for 4 days at a time
Who has enough time to watch 3 DVDs, of 4 hours each, in just 3 days?
Last Easter, I went on an Easter egg hunt with my dear friend Mr S. It was sooo much fun On Saturday, my dad and I got onto the topic of an Easter egg hunt somehow, and he said that he'd hide some eggs (or carrots) for my sister and me to find However, he didn't 
(Oh and it looks like I missed out on the N+ Easter egg hunt too)….Instead, I 'celebrated' Easter by doing 2.5 hours of Financial Accounting yesterday afternoon; share capital, preference shares, retained earnings, company constitutions etc Fascinating stuff!!! 
It takes a long time to do all the reading so I did another 4 hours today and finally finished it. Now I just have to do the questions…

Easy when you know what you're doing

sanshan- Good idea. Half the time, you don't even know what the ingredients are. We once had some 'rye bread' which had a brown colour in the ingredient list- I doubt it was even rye!

to those who'd like to pay me out for watching the o.c., at least I don't sit on the computer all day like my sister!
