aww Crap jobs are what memories are made of - they are much more fun when you are looking back on them. Maybe you are not getting enough sleep, the other girls in your room are probably living on more of a day shift and coming and going while you are sleeping. You will get a new job soon, keep sending out applications!
well, the feeling isn't being homesick. I don't miss home at all really. I'm where I want to be, I'm just...I don't know. Having a bad few days, I guess. Having a crap job doesn't help either.
more info' I think that when you mentioned about staying in Perth, that you should mention that this is your 3rd. visit to Australia and that you have travelled south from Melbourne, right up through NSW to Queensland and further north to Maroochydore and back down the east coast. Otherwise you are giving the impression that you haven't seen much of the country and have just decided that Perth is enough and that you have no interest in seeing any more which sounds boring to people who would love the chance to travel.
depending on how long you've been travelling already *i'm new here, haven't read ur journal yet*, it could be culture shock that is making you miss everyone and just feel blah. i know i definitely felt that way when i was in hawaii for awhile w/o seeing any of my friends. just an idea :)
i'll have a glass of goon! dood i love drinking wine haha especially red merlot!
you like drinking red or white?
you still travelling with danielle? you dont seem to mention her much! i dunno just wondering, i love you to death and hope you do well babe!

new experience Give this place a go. Your trip is going to be pretty ordinary if you stay only with the first positive experience. You need to have many and varied to really have had a great year. You just don't know yet what place and experience is going to stand out at the best.
Sunburn sounds awful - if you are near a drug store show the pharmacist and see what they think - maybe they have the aloe gel that will also numb the skin a bit (it has lidocaine or something in it). Sydney sounds like a great city - maybe people are so helpfull because they like your accent?
He told me to get in the shower, and wait until the burn stopped stinging, then turn the cold down a bit. Keep doing that until the temperature is too hot for the unburned bits of you. Then get out, and slather on aloe vera. It worked like a damn.
Sorry to hear about the sunburn, though her in Calgary it is about minus 25 or more, plus windchill, kind of the oposite end of the spectrum. Can't waitt o sse the photo's - make sure you catch the Monday train!
man i am soo jealous hahaha you guys are staying in a hostel? that is so freakin awesome! i totally want to do that! freakin drink some forgien beer and groove to some local tunes. you guys are the shit! so where did you meet that ned guy anyway? and what about spider monkeys? lol hahaha miss you tons though girlys! karina
What I did was write everything down on the train, and once I got to the Hostel, I typed it all up. Unfortunately, the train wasn't technologically equipped.
sounds awesome It is a really shitty thing about the train ride, but it definatly sounds worth it!! It is freezing here and lots of snow, it going to be -24 on Saturday, So I am very jealous of you!! Anyways have fun in the new town!! Love you tons!!
On October 15th, 2006, I will be leaving my home (Calgary, Alberta, Canada), to backpack for a year. My destinations are Australia, Singapore, Thailand and Japan.
