Monday 23rd November

Went for a litte shop round town today, didnt actually buy anything but had a look at a tent i could get for weekend if i need to. Thennn me and Anja went down to Fremantle which is a little coast town, had a little wander round, didnt know where we were going! Ended up sat out at a lighthouse watchin some guys fish while the boats sailed past, tis a pretty nice place. Then we had some pizza and some drinks andd some icecream! And then back to hostel and its bed time now! YAY SLEEEEEEP!

Sunday 22nd November

Went the beach today with Anja, Johanna and two people i didnt know, a german girl and a french lad. Then Jay, Jos (dutch), Miranda (dutch), Emma (english), Mary (english) and Natalie (Scottish) all came down, but they didnt see us and set up somewhere else so i didnt spend much time with them. The wind picked up and me and Anja went into the water but it was soooo rough! i couldnt touch the floor about 10 meters out from the shore and usually u can walk quite far out, then theres a big sand bank that i can kneel down on which is strange cause your fairly far away from the beach. But the waves were sooo huge and they were just one after another like i was in the middle of a storm. Like Anja would disappear behind a wave then be a few meters away. Soo anyway we decided to get out and realised we'd been dragged about 200m down the beach so had to walk back!

Errrm drank a lot that night, jay was looking like a lobster after not putting suncream on his face, so that was amusing!

Friday 20th November

Again only had 4 hours sleep which was silly! Was up at 6.30 for the removals job, got picked up and went to an apartment with a guy called Tim! He was a bit crazy.. was like 31, lots of tattoos, bit overweight with a big goatee beard and a shaved head but was pretty sound anyway. Was moving a load of boxes from the garages round the back of the apartments up to the 4th floor, so was just a case of loading them on my trolley, wheeling them to the apartments, up the lift and then putting them in the right room. Then a load of moving maids unpacked all the stuff while we kept bringing them up. The apartment was amaaaazing. Like out the master bedroom it looked across the national park and river, then out the main room it looked out over the river and the perth skyline, both sides with big balconies. The lady we were moving for was really nice too, bought us coffees in the morning and a load of food for lunch. Shee wasss the ex attourney general for western australia and is now the environmental minister and off to the G8 sumit tomorrow, but for a politician she was pretty cool :P! gave me a $20 tip aswel which on top of my wages was a nice amount! will pay for over a weeks rent anyway!

went out later on in the night to black bettys again! about 30 people from the hostel came out so was a really good laugh, especially cause a lot of them dont tend to come out.

Having a lazy day today.. not like i have anything else to do anyway!

Wednesday 18th November

neeeeeeeowm! tired! Worked 7.30am-4pm today, just demolishing stuff at someones house. Spent most of the day with a sledgehammer knocking down a big brick shed. The guy got 2 asians to help aswel, a jap (womalalalalaicantpronouncehisname) and a lad from hong kong (Samuel), theyre useless! Samuel has never touched a sledgehammer in his life, hes a sales executive, so he could only knock 1 brick out at a time after about 5 hits! anywaaay it rained mid way through so we went inside and took all the tiles off the bathroom wall, removed the sink and then fought with the bath for about an hour!

Got same job tomorrow, going up a tree an choppin it down with a chainsaw apparently! Still got a lot of bricks to move aswel, oh noes! The guy i worked with last week, doing the jackhammering in his garden, phoned the hostel today looking for me, so im working with him on friday, but i think its for his removal company this time! he payed well so hopefully its the same and ill get more calls off him!

Thursday 12th November

Not written anything in awhile! Not really been much going on since i worked on the persons garden last weekend! Didnt end up doing the Pearl Jam stage which is lame! The stage was delayed until wednesday and i missed the guys call on tuesday night n it was too late to call him back, so called on wednesday n he didnt need me anymore :( buttt today i was woken up by the manager with a job for me so i rolled out of bed and went to some guys house to help with work on his garden. Was just using a jackhammer all day taking up the concrete floor and shifting it. Weathers been weird today, lots of rain but it just gets really hot and humid which isnt nice! Thought i was going crazy at one point from the heat, as i was jackhammering and sweating away, i bent down to move some rubble and there was a huge white rabbit sat right next to me, shit myself and then had a long stare at it trying to figure out if it was real. It was. Got and interview tomorrow with Till (german lad i worked on farm with). Its for workers at a garden nursery about an hour away from perth, full time but i dont really want to leave the hostel, especially with my birthday coming up, were all going to Margret River which is a town about 3-4 hours away with amazing beachs and winery apparently! So i dont want to miss that! Hopefully i can commute to the nursery every day.. LONG POST! ill stop now! =D

Thursday 5th November



Boring day today! cant see a lot happening. Last night was pretty funny, jay poured water on a girls head, so she poured beer on his, so he poured orange juice all over her, and everyone else during the struggle.. then i pushed her in the shower fully clothed, but then Jos the dutch lad pushed me in aswel =( andddd me and jay have number 0 skin heads and managed to convince 2 others to do it, so it ended up as 5 skin heads sat outside drinking and then the racism started! Ha, and the clippers ran out half way through one guys so it took us about 2 hours of stopping and starting to get it finished! oo actually i took pictures.. ill whack them on now!

OH! and i got a job this morning! Friday, sat, sun and mon putting the stage up for pearl jam!

HALLOWEEN!

Well i left the farm! We finished all the hard physical work so there was on a bit of driving left so the farmers said they could do it themselves. Got back to the hostel about 7pm and started drinking! had no costume because i only found out i was coming back a few hours before. Somebody ended up drawing a goatee on me with marker pen, and a monobrow! n then 2 other people drew on me with facepaints. Then i ended up with a skirt and girls top on, and going out to Black Bettys, which is a club round the corner. Unfortunately there are pictures.. lots of them.. and no doubt theyl find their way onto the internet!

Sunday afternoon now, only went to bed at 6am so im feeling very tired and hungover! Now im back at hostel i should be able to get all the videos and pictures up!
