One of the guys put on Miss Universe on the TV, so I watched a bit of that- I was quite curious to see what sort of things they judge you on, and I'm quite glad I will never enter one as one of the rounds they ask you serious questions that really put you on the spot like "How would you increase the amount of females in politics?" and similar questions. It was a bit unfortunate for Miss Spain as I think maybe the interpreter translated her question wrong as the...

It was pretty quiet at Hooked, so I got to leave at 3 instead of 4, so I claimed another coffee from the cafe giving away free coffees for their opening, until they closed and tried to find Bournvita as a present to the kitchen boys (it's like a chocolate milkshake from India) but they didn't have any in store in the Prahan Convenience store. I walked back home, and then me and Amanda got ready for a night out listening to Stevie Nicks and R.E.M. She went off t...

Another chill out day involving going to the bank, and buying saganaki and then cooking said saganaki.

I didn't realise that ...

There was a note in the till saying it was supposed to be $16 over, but when I counted it I thought it was $4 under, and then when I cashed up it was somehow $13.90 so I have no idea what was going on there, but it was a very confusing day! I actually managed to come home in between Hooked and Sienna today, although didn't manage to have a nap. It was still quite reviving anyway. Arnie has a new system for managing outside, where people stay outside, and ge...
