hey everyone,

cheers for the awsome comments!!

after this blog i will hopefully be updating every sunday!!

alright, we start of on tuesday evening then,

Tuesday:
After i wrote my last blog stayed in my hostel for a bit chattin to one of the guys that worked there, the result of that conversation was a job working 11-1 monday to friday cleaning dorms for free accomodation, after a couple of days it aint to bad really just gota get through it and get the rest of the day off. as soon as i get a paid job ill stop working there but all depends on the times i have to work for the paid job. I obviously celebrated getting any job by getting on it (even tho i had to start the next day), to make excuses i was still jet lagged and i knew i wouldnt have gotten to sleep if i just went to bed, neways it did work got to sleep as soon as i got in for about 4 hours!! every little helps!!

Before that night i met a couple of new people who showed me a few new drinking games that i WILL be bringing back to england to share with all my mates. stayed out for a while, wasnt that busy, it was only a tuesday! main reason we went out was because it was $5 for wine some spirits, so i decided to buy a beer...$9...jokes...rest of the night i decided to go on vodka lemonade which saved sooo much money so will be going to that club most weeks to take advantage of that offer.

wednesday:
woke up about 4ish...damn jet lagg. at about 7 a new girl came into our room but as she didnt want to turn the light on to wake uus up she just went downstaires, as id been awake for 3 hours i decided to go down and speak to her, she seemed cool after about an hour of chattin i decided to go for a job along the beach but it didnt last long as i was still hungover from the previous night..my excuse for walking was 'i was taking in the scenery'.

i started my shift which was horrible with a hangover, cleaning toilets and peoples humid feet stinking rooms is not the best when hungova. I also opened up a bank account and went for a walk around acland street which is just a main shopping street in st. kilda.

Wednesday and Thursday:

i actually cant remember what i did on these day becuase its most probebly the most simple answer...nothing!

i did my work 11-1 and then just think i chilled in my room trying to stay awake.i believe wednesay night i slept for a lil bit longer but thursday..wow..went to sleep and 9pm woke up at 9am :D
i got 12hours sleep...best night and most relieving sleep ive ever had.
since then though ive been waking up at around 7-9ish which isnt so bad im just glad im getting to sleep now. the only problem is if i do anything during the day im soo tired afterwards even if its just doing my 11-1, not to sure what it is probebly because im not eating properly or just getting used my new life routine.

Friday:

this is just like a normal day apart from a guy im good friends with here invited me to yoga (if you didnt know as most of you dont ive been quite into my yoga since i did both my ankles in), but as you many of you are laughing now may i just remind you of these key points.

hot australia women
tight shorts
flexible positions
right infront of my face

sadly i was in too much pain to pay attention to any of these as this class was the advanced class. 1.5 hours of pure pain...ive been in fights and come of better than that class. still $20 for a week pass for all i can handle isnt bad really.

Saturday:

woke up early..AGAIN.. so decided to go for a jog in the near by park which just so happened to be the australian formula 1 track :D was a good jog once again i took in the scenery...but from my hostel all the way around the lake (which the track goes around) and back was only 4 miles that shows you how close my hostel is to the track.

after this i only had about an hour before i had to go and do my first labouring job for cash :D basically a couple were turning a shop into a coffee shop and they wanted the garden de-weeding so they could put some tables out there....4 hours and 10 black bags later i had done all i could without tools. plus forgot to mention i was doing it alone. the pay wasnt bad though got $60 which is $15 an hour which is minimum wage here. plus the guy that called the hostel was a hair dresser and also said he would give me my next hair cut for free which was weird but i will definatly need one in the next year so i didnt refuse.

After this had a couple of hours off before a few of us from the hostel went to the MCG (melbourne cricket ground) to watch AFL (australian fooball league(aussie rules)). btw if you havent guessed thats me in the picture at the MCG during halftime. aussie rules is quite a weird game and it took me about an hour to sort of get the jist...i wont try and explain it because it is just to weird but the throwins must be viewed oni youtube..if the ref cant decided if the ball has been put out intentionally he throws it in himself, but the way he does it is hilarious. i did enjoy the game a few fights broke out which is what we all wanted to see, a guy got concussion and another bloke broke his nose, and this was apparently a quite night..aussie rules doesnt beat football but defiently beats rugby just because of the intentional harm.

sunday:

today was a nice day went to yoga again this morning getting a tad better but still are getting shown up by the aussies...and after that met rosie and matt for dinner, as most of you dont know its junes sister and her husband who live in melbourne about 50mins walk away. had smoked salmon and crackers for starters then roast pork,mash potato and carrots for dinner and then a cupcake for dessert. had a very nice chat with them and they also gave me some beer lefover roast and a cupcake...all very welcome :D chatted to my dad and june on skype for the first time on fathers day :D shame my sister wasnt there but ill obviously catch up with her next sunday hopefully.
