hey guys well I've finished putting all my information and music on my new mp3 player and a girl Bonny wants to buy my laptop off me. She says she won't have the money for a month or so. When she buys it I'll be on the internet alot less. But in a month or so I will be packing my stuff getting ready to leave that's no big deal. Work has continued to chop and change my hours around and I'm starting to get really peeved. I know its because I'm the only one who won't openly complain. All the others have 5 days a week and one of them doesn't even like working there! So I'm once again searching for work. I feel like I must be doing something wrong it's rediculous. Oh well up side of it is that now I have saved enough money to cover me travelling completely (Thankyou Sylvia and your mum for repaying that money it helped alot)

It helps that I have no rent. I have no idea how I would survive if I had to pay for everything rent, food, electricity, telephone. Well actually I do have to pay for some food and a third of the electricity and telephone bill. But thats basically nothing. Thank you mum & dad. Golly don't you just love your parents sometimes?

well thats about it.

cheerio then.

90 Days and counting till NZ. Who ever doesn't count down the days till they go travelling isn't excited enough! Spent the last three days putting information, word documents, photos, pictures, videos & music on my Mp3 player. I'm only about a third of the way through all my music and I've already used nearly 12Gb. It's gonna take me ages. Absolutely buggered today after work but we had chinese for dinner tonight which was awesome.

Alright catchya l8r

ciao amigos

well life is starting to look good again... For me at least. My mp3 player has finally been delivered and it is gorgeous. All black and beautiful. Works given me another days work a week and I possibly have more work at the bowling club so tis all good. 

My grandparents however are in a bit of a living hell. My grandmother on my mums side (The horrid one I lived with for three years in brisbane) the hot water tank burst and has demolished her unit. Insurance is taking care of it for her whilst she goes and looks after frank (her bf, I know ew) who has just had a colonoscopy (double eww). My pop on my dads side however looks like he's had a head on collision with a semitrailer. He really just took a bad fall off some rocks here on the island because he was silly enough to think he could climb onto them when he could barely walk to start with. My father and my uncle kenny are now on call nurses for him having to spend most of the day with him so he doesn't feel alone coz when he's alone he gets bored, people with alsymers are dangerous when they are bored because they do stupid things because they think they are fine because they cant remember they are hurt or they have alsymers. Like drive when he can barely see (dad has since taken away the car keys).

I recently watched a movie called The Secret. Really cool, but then again its very much up my alley. All about positive thinking changing your life and all that. Alot of ppl would think its a bore.

Any way I'm going back to setting up my new mp3 player.

hope you are all well.

bad Bad BAd BAD! I bought a $550 60Gb mp3 player from harvey norman so that I could everything from my laptop onto it and then I could sell my laptop so when I go travelling I only have to carry the mp3 player. It has gone missing in the mail!!!!!  GAH!!!!!!!!! $550... *explodes*

It was sent on the ship and when things are sent on the ship they are put on palets that are about 2 metres square and then shrink wrapped (wrapped tightly with tough clingwrap) so that nothing falls off. We've managed to find out that the palet that it was on arrived on the island. So either one of the people working on the ship or sorting the parcels has stolen it. Or that it was delivered to the wrong address and that person hasn't stepped up and said "Sorry I don't believe this is mine". Either way it is BAD NEWS and I've just about been having kittens (which is bad because it's illegal to have cats on the island )

Worst comes to worst I'll tell the copper and make him make a police record of it then ring Harvey Norman and kick up a stink about there courier service sending it via ship rather than airfreight and make them send me another one... *sigh* I just wish things would work out the way that they are supposed to. You order something, they send it, you receive it. What is so hard about that?

As you can probably tell I'm not in the best mood at the moment. I need a cuppa tea.

Catchya later guys.

Ciao
