Okay so seeing as I have neglected this a bit due to not really being on the interwebz, I'll update you on what's actually happening in my life. Y'know the minor details that you don't really give a shit about but I'm going to tell you anyway because that's the way I roll, mmkay. So I still haven't found a job, I've literally given up COMPLETELY.. I've lost the will to live, running out of money and probably going to have to transfer more from my savings which I really didn't want to do! On the plus side my sister is coming over in 3 weeks and I'm going to go meet her in Melbourne! Excitinggggggggggg. Which means because of this I really don't want a job now as I don't want my plans interrupted. We're ... read more

We got back though the city centre crowds around 01:00 and had cup of coffee. We got up and decided to try and find the Imperial Hotel - the basis of where Priscilla Queen of the Desert was filmed. Along the way through Broadway we found Grace Bros of 'Are you being served' fame. Along the City Road towards Newtown, we found various places with Darlington in their name. In Newtown we stopped for Gelato in Kings Road - lovely! We found the hotel and caught the bus back, calling in again to Coles to get some dinner nibbles. We are going to Darling Harbour again for fish and chips for our last day. ... read more

Ca y est! J'ai atterri! Je suisa Sydney!! Et il pleut... bon, peut etre que demain il fera beau? Je dis au revoir au francais que j'ai connu dans l'avion, et avec Minesh, nous prenons le train pour Sydney. Son ami n'arrive que le soir, on se donne donc rdv a 11h du matin, pour visiter la ville ensemble. Pendant ce temps, chacun cherche son auberge: Lui, son hotel qu'il a deja reserve, et moi... un hostal de backpackers, que je n'ai pas encore reserve... J'etais tellemment convaincue qu'il y aurait tant de place dans une si grande ville que je n'avais rien reserve... sans avoir pense que la-bas c'etait l'ete + noel et nouvel an. En bref, tout etait plein ou avec des prix de fous. En finde compte j'ai trouve un endroit a un ... read more

Le 23 decembre 2010, depart pour Londres, depuis l'aeroport de Girona. Derniers adieux a Anthony et Mercedes qui m'ont accompagnes jusque la, puis Norbert avec qui jai pu parler juste avant de partir... J'ai un moment de melancolie. On embarque. Ca y est, je me rend compte que je pars... et je suis a nouveau pleine d'energie, pour ce nouveau grand depart! Apres avoir somnole dans l'avion, dans un vol tres rapide avec Ryanair, j'arrive a Londres Gatwick, je prends le train, et rejoins ma petite Alba a la gare... je ne sais plus laquelle. Merci Alba et Vivi de m'avoir logee! Une soiree a Mapersburry, le lendemain, apres-midi au marche de Candem (j'ai adore cet endroit!!), et il est temps de partir a l'aeroport. A nouveaux des adieux, d'abords avec Alba, ensuite Vivi. Re-melancolie. Je ... read more

Soooo... it's Saturday and today was meant to be my first official day of starting the door to door job. I'm not doing it. Just watching the others do it sucked the life out of me so there's no way I can handle it. Itay rings me and I basically just tell him straight I'm not doing it, he tried to convince me otherwise but I wasn't having any of it. I'd rather be skint than slave away every day for NOTHING. I don't care if sometimes it makes good money, it's not worth it to me. I'd rather just jobhunt my ass off again and find a steady hourly rate job. Call me a jewish princess but whatever, I just can't do it. So Marc and Zoebird go off to work and I hang out ... read more

So we all had a relatively good lie in.. Zoe and Marc had their training day with the door to door Israelis today, and I had my interview for Cotton On! Luckily it wasn't until 3pm so I had plenty of time to prepare. So I dressed up super nicely. I wore my trendy goat dress from Top Shop and I made an effort putting my extensions in. Feeling relatively confident I made my way to the interview. It was at harbourside shopping centre which was gorgeous and a really nice walk, but of course I arrived too early. Had a quick 20 minute session on facebook in an internet cafe and then arrived at Cotton On. First thing I noticed was the collection of teens stood outside also dressed nicely and a few holding portfolio ... read more

Got woken up again.. but not to Hannah Montana this time, but by Lion King - Circle of Life! Someone was bastard ringing me and it was a witheld number.. still half asleep I answered. However I perked up the minute I found out it was a response to a job I applied for, yay!! It's face2face charity fundraising but it's better than nothing and at least you get hourly pay plus commission. You know those annoying people that stop you in the middle of the street when you're trying to go to the bank or somewhere? Yeah that's what I'd be doing if I got this job.. So she gave me a mini interview over the phone and because I'm fabulous I qualified for a face interview.. which was this afternoon at 2pm! DAMN I ... read more

Darling, I appreciate the comment you left (which didn't get accepted btw because you're a tool).. but let me just tell you sweetpea, that 1) don't read if you don't want to and 2) obviously what I'm doing right now is as if I'm living back home because that's what I'm doing right now.. LIVING in sydney. If I was travelling around Australia at the moment (which I plan to do in March) OBVIOUSLY there would be a lot more said on my blogs other than 'I got wasted last night' but seeing as I'm not, all I can do is write about what I'm doing whilst living here, you thick bitch.. and seeing as I haven't got the money to do much other than survive, I can't really visit other places, y'dig? So get the ... read more

I'm in the middle of a lovely dream, then suddenly it gets pissing interrupted by Hannah Montana - Best of Both Worlds. Don't get me wrong I love this song but to interupt my dream like that is just RUDE. Eventually halfway through the first verse I wake up with a start and realise it's actually my phone going off. Still half asleep I have a look at who the hell would be stupid enough to text me at bloody 9.30 in the morning.. Tim, apparently. He says he's back in Sydney and wants to know what we're doing today. Last time I saw him it hadn't been an all too thrilling night.. hmmmm.. Anyway first thing I do is get my head into gear for more job hunting, because the bastards from the hotel bar ... read more
