I got a new tattoo.

Its the Commenwealth Star and Southern Cross. Its the constellation that is on the Australian flag. To commemorate my time down under.

In other news, I'm having communication issues with my boss. I can't seem to get through on his phone. I hate it when someone says that they're going to call you. People always seem to forget and then I have to call them. Then they're number is whack and I can't get through!

Talk to you later.

Not much going on lately

I've been laying low for the past few weeks. Hence the lack of updates. I just got a job at a bar about 20 minutes from downtown. I start Friday. I may or may not go on a boat cruise the next Saturday. If I'm working, no. If not, yes. I hope to spend a few days in Melbourne or Brisbane in the next month.

I did this thing where you upload a picture of yourself and it tells you if you resemble any celebrities. I never would have guessed that I look anything like the ones it listed.

Anyway, tootles.

Hey everyone. I've now moved in and settled in my new apartment. Its a pretty sweet place. I went to the gym this morning (it has a gym in the building). It felt sooooo good. I felt like a beached whale before. I hadn't worked out since leaving home. Most of my room mates are Irish. It can be hard to understand what they're saying at times, but they're all pretty nice people. And another one is British. She's pretty cool too. I don't forsee any major clashes happening in the near future. I saw the Blood Diamond yesterday. When I was in Europe, I realized that I have a weakness for South African accents.

This is from my bedroom balcony,

I have a really long day ahead of me today. First, I have to print out and updated copy of my resume. Then I have to come back to the hostel and pack up my stuff, then move uptown to my apartment. And guess what? ITS PISS RAINING OUTSIDE! Everytime I have a day full of errands to run, pouring out.

Boxing Day in Sydney

Like all countries in the Commonwealth, Australia too enjoys the day of markdown merchandise also known as Boxing Day. The Aussies aren't any less agressive than Canadians in this day of war with the credit cards. I managed to buy a bottle of perfume and a top before I called it quits and head back to the hostel. After the craziness that is Boxing Day, I had to switch hostels. The second one (YHA) is a bit nicer. Its much larger and it feels a bit more social. After this, I'm at Wake Up and then I'm moving into the apartment. I can't wait. The place has a gym in the building. I'm really looking forward to that. I haven't been to the gym in a month. I feel like a beached whale.

Tata for now.
