Any suggestions for theme of the week?

How about something that has to do with your occupation?

Sounds good to me!! Sophia? Jan? Laura? Olly? anyone?:D

LOL im unemployed :o (Im working on it though!)

Other than that it sounds like a good suggestion, go for it :D

Laura, I guess we will get a picture of you just chillaxing on your pc then:D I'm sure you will come up with something great, after all school is a job too!

Haha thats a good point. Ill have to get my thinking cap on :)

What do you think about "your occupation,your hobby"?Thus,unemployed people would take of photo of something they love to do :)

But Sophia we all love our jobs:D :D Just joking, sounds good to me!

So the theme of the week is "your occupation or your hobby" :)

LOL im unemployed :o (Im working on it though!)

Other than that it sounds like a good suggestion, go for it :D

How about something to do with what you are going to school for? Just pretend you already have a job doing that. :D

Im going to school for an animal degree :)

Im thinking :)

We have our own swimming pool services company, we do everything but put new swimming pools in.

This is giving a customers pool an overhaul, changing everything. Still cheaper than putting in a new pool.

This is the finished project:

All I can say is....WOW! What a difference! I knew this would be an interesting subject. My pic will have to wait until Monday. I didn't have time to take any on Friday.

That pool looks so nice on a hot day like today :rolleyes:

Very nice Colleen!

The new pool looks very nice. Makes you want to go for a swim. :)

well this is by no means an artistic photo lol. Its not my current job, but what I am studying to be. just some of my many text books.

The white thing the books are on is my lab coat :)

Shannon thats great! boy there must be a lot of studying. Are you going to Ottawa U?

What a nice job that you chose Shannon!!:)

We make bunches of artificial and dried flowers for weddings and christenings and this is a detail of a candlestick :)

oh my goodness Sophia that is a beautiful candle. My sister does flower arrangements and such for weddings as a hobby.

Colleen- no actually I go to Algonquin College, no university needed to become a tech :). The big blue book in that picture is a BIG blue book lol. its about 2000 pages. I have about 4 other text books i didnt include

oh my goodness Sophia that is a beautiful candle
Thank you!
My sister does flower arrangements and such for weddings as a hobby
Does she made them using fresh flowers or dried and artificial?

She's only used artifical ones up til now, but she was saying something about expirimenting with fresh ones

Oh Sophia that is just beautiful, its looks so elegant. Nice work. Does it take a lot of time to do something like that?

Sophia thats such a beautiful candle/flower arrangement :D

Shannon cool photo :D I like your stethoscope cover thing :) lol it reminded be that I have to go buy a vet book today. Those things really break the bank!

Shannon I take it your going to become a vet? Which campus do you go to? Woodroffe or Rideau? Our vets wife just passed away from a virus, she was a vet too. Miss her so much, she was super nice.

Laura- yes, they do break the bank. I figured out the other day I spent a little over 700$ on my books for this year. And thats for 7 books. Also spent 515$ on a rabies vaccine thats only good for 2 years, then I have to go for boosters

Colleen- no im just going to be a vet tech. Im at the Woodroffe campus. We're getting our own teaching hospital next year, Im VERY excited for that. I wanted to be a vet, but the requirements are much the same as med school. 2 years in univeristy in a biology related study, 90% grade average, an interview process, you have to pass a test much similiar to the MCAT, they only have 100 spaces and its a four year program (this is for Guelph University). I dont like school enough to go for another 6 years. This is a 2 year program that Im in

Well good for you. My sons girlfriends is in Ottawa U taking bio etc and its tough. She just went for an interview In Vancouver for Med school. So long.

She's only used artifical ones up til now, but she was saying something about expirimenting with fresh ones

I have heard that in other countries they use only fresh flowers instead of dried or artificial flowers to decorate wedding candles,we have a customer in Astoria and he told me that they sell the flowers only for Greek weddings.We also get used to decorate the christenings candles with flowers and things like little dolls or baby bears

Does it take a lot of time to do something like that?

Colleen this is the most simple bunch,and it takes about 7-10 min.The most complected takes about 1 1/2 hour

Laura- yes, they do break the bank. I figured out the other day I spent a little over 700$ on my books for this year. And thats for 7 books. Also spent 515$ on a rabies vaccine thats only good for 2 years, then I have to go for boosters

Wow $500 for a vaccine!?! Thats insane.

The books have to buy are between $130-150 each. Have to buy 4 or 5. The price we pay for paper!

I dont like school enough to go for another 6 years.

Exactly the reason I didnt want to become a vet. Requires too much brain power for too long lol :rolleyes:

Some very interesting pics so far! Here is mine:

Guess what I spend a lot of time doing? :D It's old and muddy but it gets the job done. I'm supposed to get a newer one pretty soon.

:D Gary your not supposed to do any off road trails with your forklift:D Are you getting another Hyster?

Ok heres mine. A building in the campus I study at and a seagull :)

:D Gary your not supposed to do any off road trails with your forklift:D Are you getting another Hyster?

I don't have any choice. :) I have to go outside and the yard can get to be like a swamp sometimes. You should see the mud trail I leave in the building!:eek:
It's not well recieved.:D
I'll most likely be getting a Toyota next. They have bought 2 already and I think they kind of want to standardize. It will likely have a higher weight capacity, which would be nice.

Laura- its just a pre-exposure vacine, so even if i get bit I still have to get 3 more vaccines. I love streaking cultures. What were you growing in that one?

Wow thats some expensive protection.

Oh it was a cheek swab of my lab partner after a week. The other multicoloured agars were great as well.

Ok.. great news everyone. I have a job :D lol feels good to be employed again :rolleyes:

Its at a miniature horse stables. They are too cute :D

Mini donkeys are so cute and i didn't know they existed,before you showed us the photos of them!

Shame on you Sophia, thats means you didn't look at the one in my gallery:(

http://www.megapixelworld.com/photography/showphoto.php?photo=1353&cat=500&ppuser=5

They are precious, they were always licking my feet. They also had a big ball that they played with, they also like to nip at your pants :)

Shame on you Sophia, thats means you didn't look at the one in my gallery
