another week.

first i'd like to say that i have come to the conclusion that i must stop working so much! i've worked myself into a cold and had to take a skip a day at work this week! it was definitely a sign. additionally, my promotion (and pay raise) will be official as of monday meaning i can work less hours and make the same money as i am now! watch out australia, i'm about to have much much more fun!

i've noticed customers at working saying 'ta' which means thank you and i just think that's strange. it sounds like they're just mumbling or something. and i've started saying 'heaps and heaps' and i've never said that quite as often as i do now! i'm picking up some lingo. another phrase often heard is 'do you reckon?' but i might have already mentioned that in one of these postings.

i was walking up the road today after work on my way to the train station listening to my ipod and i suddenly had a wonderful feeling of happiness just watching all the different people walk by and even the construction on the road and waiting for lights to change made me content. it was great and i think i need to start doing more people watching in my free time... maybe this saturday at the beach when it'll be 25 degrees (celsius of course). ahhh i can't wait for my first day at the beach here!

i honestly made a good attempt at finally posting pictures. i put them on my flashdrive, took it to the internet cafe, and really tried to finally get them to post. but still no luck! grrrrr !&$#^*. will keep trying.

Jassy I can't WAIT to come visit you! It's going to be pretty spectacular. Also, just like Allie I will fit in perfectly since I'm German/Irish and have a knack for understanding accents. YES!
