well, i was working at this awful bistro, ive never hated somewhere as much as there! I quit yesterday, after deano almost went in there and punched the head chef! hahah! talk about kitchen nightmares, this place was so gross and they were really arrogant and rude. i got yelled at continously for 4 hours, like i was a 12 year old idiot, so im very glad i didnt have to go back. hoping to get something this week, its a bit difficult with the car - we have to get the steering fixed either this wekk or next, which means [View Full Entry]

well, after hating byron and not lasting more than a night, we headed north and as a bit of a spare of the moment thing, we decided to head over and spend 2 weeks on moreton island (40kms off brisbane..). so after paying the fees - $165 for the car ferry, $30.80 for a car permit and $9 a night for camping, we set up camp at Scarborough for the night to wait for the ferry in the morning. Scarborough Yacht Club was an interesting queensland pub to watch the state of origin at - i think we were one of [View Full Entry]

Deanos and I heading from here to hat head national park, which is an awesome dune system with a smallish campground at Hungry Head.

well, as part of my 21st present deanos gave me a voucher for freemanx.com, a website that would let me choose what i wanted to do from all sorts of things like hang-gliding, skiy diving etc. so i made him jump out of a plane with me this morning and it was the most amazing thing ive ever done! we did the mission down to picton this morning at 6 am in the rain not thinking we'd even get a chance to dive, but as soon as we got past sydney the sky was blue and the sun shining! so now [View Full Entry]
