0645hrs	Alarm goes off. Oh man...it's dark and it's chilly - sif I'm working today - I'm gonna sleep a bit longer...
0650hrs	Ok I'm awake. I'm up. I get ready - eat some Weetbix - leave note for Mum to return 'The Ugly Truth' today.
0715hrs	I leave by the back door and say 'hi' to Miffy. She's happy to see me. But I'll let Dad feed her later...it's too early.
0725hrs	I'm on the road - there's a detour at Burwood Hwy/Elgar Rd intersection FYI
0726hrs	Arrive on time. Meet today's staff - excited to see Carrie, Sarah, Cheryl, Jodie & Maggie - they all give me huggles (Y) (AND kisses - AHHH!) I put on my new IELTS lanyard - it's bright red. I want to keep it, but Jodie says we can't. Sadface. Jodie asks me how was my trip. I said it was good and I'd go back. We talk about my final year and she says "back to the coalmines eh?" Totes. Jodie is a qualified OT (Y).
0730hrs	Sarah starts her typical pre-exam speech - wishes us a Happy New Year because yes, this is the first exam for the year!
0740hrs	Setting up the room and what?! Wrong desk labels given to us pfftt - manage to swap with Maggie's room. Plus had to do a bit of furniture arranging as room was not set-up how it should have been.
0800hrs	Registration commences alongside my fellow worker Jun Li. Amanda arrives on time to help out.
0850hrs	Ready to start. Forty-two FOBS looking at me (With about two Indians) Or make that forty-three as Jun Li is clearly a fob. Uncomfortable, much?
0900hrs	Dude complains he is sitting too close to the doorway and will be distracted by people going to the toilet. Deal with it!
0915hrs	Listening test has started. Man I'm sleepy...
1030hrs	Reading test - now I can have my break - Nom nom nom muesli bar...Now I'm writing a draft of what I am now typing :P That bored.
1100hrs	Writing test starts - we're on the home stretch now...Amanda and I trade looks - we are both gone.
1115hrs	Hey look, it's raining outside...
1130hrs	Doing a few lower back rotation exercises - bit stiff down there
1200hrs	Written stuff has ENDED! Woohoo. Now for some lunch - but wait I go to toilet and camwhore first.
1215hrs	After much camwhoring in the toilet, I'm back at the staffroom. Discussion involves our ex-boss resigning from her recent job, my Vanuatu trip, meeting on Feb 1st and how IDP sucks.
1300hrs	Oh hey, it's Tara. Such excitement.
1400hrs	Need a neck massage desperately!
1500hrs	Cheryl cannot stop making me laugh. She's talking about how she likes tennis. But moreso "back in the day" (I suggest 20 years, she scoffs and says 10 years), she picked up a hawt Swedish tennis player at the Open. LOL. A "bronze body" apparently. She was at the tennis with her then teenage daughter. This coming from a thereabouts menopausal overweight short-haired lady with glasses.
1550hrs	Finished marking. Time to sign off my time sheet so I get paid.
1555hrs	Enjoying chatting to Carrie & Sarah. I ask how Carrie's going since she went through a divorce last year - she says she's going to try take up a Cert IV course and still live at home with her mum 'cos she still hasn't finalised financial and property settlements. She's in her 40s. One word. Messy. Sigh.
1600hrs	On the road back home. WHY is this wagon driving so slowly...
