Ive gotten even paler
But more handsome!! Twilight anyone?
Alright, to start with the title is a bit dramatic but i am a very dramatic person. I have been known to, on one or more occasions to over exagerrate stuff. Mind you, ye dont get asked to be an extra in fair city (twice) without a little talent at it either. So went and did the course today, 4 hours of pain, they dont care if you cant speak english either which none of the others could. Pay your 90 quid and they basically print up your card on the spot,after the 4 hours of safety talk though. It was hard to stay awake in that heat. Rae did her Alcohol course too, now shes safe to start drinkin again becauuuuuuse, she can do it responsibly. Put up a pic of our fridge in the last blog, i'll try add a video of the hosetl later. Its gawwwwwgis. They wake ye up at half 9 every morning and come into the room, using THEIR own effin key, take the rubbish bin out and hoover the floor. The cheek of them, and thats puttin it politely. The first mornin i was in the nip and i see the handle turnin so
Happy Rachel
The big poser i leapt across the room like spider-man and slammed it shut. She was like,''You waannnnt me te swape ye flawwh''. And me then tough bloke that i am, ''eh no thanks''. Straight back into rachel, ''the cheek of that bitch comin in here, do you want me to say it to her, i will tomorro if you want. i'll even say it down at the desk if you want....no you dont want me to rachel? alright grand then i wont if you dont want me to....but the neck of her. No manners. No manners. I really should say it though''. The next day came and in she comes, i was ready for her though, set the alarm for half 9 so i'd be awake and dressed an all.
HOWD YOU LIKE THAT!!!! The next part was a haze, as far as i can remember i sat on the edge of the bed and she hoovered under neath my feet, felt abit weird coz the 3 of us were all in silence. Rachel was still lyin under the blanket half asleep. It'd put you in a bad mood though, doin shit like that.
Rained this morning. Was abit strange after
The Bell Tower
Biggest instrument in the world 2 weeks or pure heat. It actually got nippy and i was just wearing a t-shirt. Was startin to think in my head, ''shit weather''. Then the sun arose and we had 33 degree heat....neh neh neh neh neh!!!!
Keith and Sarah are no more!!!
DUM DUM DUMH!! The big Shlut.
Keith said last night he was going home, needed to be around family and friends an all so that was grand. He's had it shit so i wasnt gona try convince him to stay i sorta felt he needed to go home. So me and Rachel were abit sad over it, thinkin its back to just us two blah blah blah. Get a text off keith this morning at half 6, ''whats the craic man, listen im after getting a job so could you go up to help sarah to move my bags to a different hostel SHES gona book me in somewhere for a week''.
WHAT???? I know it was 7 in the morning and we are tireder (not a real word) than normal but was i reading the right message. Any way fell back asleep coz id no credit to reply, plus me and rae had a busy morning ahead doin stuff for jobs an all. Plus Plus we didnt really want to see sarah, two of us felt we'd end up calling her a dirty C***. So,Keith was happy secured with a job, after sending out
0 CV's mind you. I was happy he got a job (karma and all that) but i couldnt help feeling a little hard done, me with my hours on the net and phone sendin CV's off by the ship load. So, depressed, down and defeated we headed off into the draining 35 degree heat to find a tool shop just incase the stars and moon aligned, gold fell from the sky and jesus rose again and i actually got a call back. We found the tool shop, good aul spot. A drive tru tool shop, no messing. We didnt know what to do. I just picked Rachel up on my back and went around sounding like a formula 1 car. All this is wrote over 2 or 3 days just so you's know, it takes a lot of effort to write one of these.
So anyway, after the tool shop/drive tru, we were still defeated, down and depressed so we did what any irish personb does in that situation....We went for a nice cold pint of bulmers in the irish bar. Must say, 10 outa 10, cant beat the good stuff. Feeling better, abit, we left anyway and headed to woolworths to get our daily dinner of a cooked chicken and roll. WE love it! In woolworths get a call from a bloke i sent a cv to that morning. HELLO! He was such a nice fella, told him i didnt have the A grade licence when he asked, but i told him i still had the ARTC which is the on the path of gettin your A grade. He was sound, said he's call me tomorrow and might be able to offer me labouring work till i do my course. I was absolutely over the moon, turned my whole day around. Maybe he wont call, maybe he will, but i know im on the right path and that'll do me for a little while. We get back to the apartment,and this is gona sound unbelieveable, but Rachel gets a call about working in a shop a good bit away from ehre but so what. She has an interview on Wednesday. It was the best, two of us hoppin around the room high fiving. How our day turned around was brilliant. It just shows ye the highs and lows of this place, we were walkin around that morning feeling like shite and thinkin about the what ifs if it didnt work out, then that evening we get a call each and made us love the place again. I guess the whole lesson behind this is, as corny as it sounds, but dont give up. Australia will test you. It tested us today and we won. James and Rachel 1. Perth 0.
Thats about enough for this blog. We're still enjoying it here. We hope everyone is okay at home. Lovin all the comments aswel. I'll try add a video to this later. Bye for now gossipers, The Rae and Jae Express (really should change that).
