Hello peeps.
Ok, so this time round I put the pics on before adding a journal, which I reckon has confused everyone, cos I got a few messages asking what the hell I was doing dressed in a 'twister' mat! haha
This weeks been no different to any other. I was meant to be back online to mail you my pics of Canberra etc last wed, but ended up going out with nic instead! We thought we'd head to Bondi (suprise) to see the lads, cos we hadn't seen them in yonks, and also cos there was a pool comp going on, and with me and Nic being such pool pro's, we had to show our faces. Well, instead we ended up completely trashed on wine before we'd even left the house, but made it to Bondi (although i'm not sure how) where we danced the night away, and scoffed our faces with kebabs! Nic didn't even make it home (haha) and had to do the walk of shame the next morning, but not before stopping off to get us McDonalds breckie! Good girl!
We then decided to get over our hangovers the hard way, by just heading back to Bondi to the beach (naturally, I didn't make it into work on the Thu) and we spent that day there getting our pics taken with lifeguards, and the like.
Later that day we thought we'd go on a trip to the aquarium, but it was pretty similar to the zoo, in that it wasn't as good as other ones we'd been too, although there were good sharks and stingrays, and you could touch the star fishies and things, and as always we had fun being photographers (obviously) and making complete idiots of ourselves. We made it home at about 6.20pm and both decided to have a little snooze, and then both woke up at 8.30am the next morning! Haha We were clearly in need of a sleep. I had all these texts off Nads aswell going where the hell are you girls. If only she's of looked into our room she'd of seen we were sound asleep.
Friday night was another Bondi'er! We were heading to the hostel this time for punch night, which went down a treat, especially now that we don't even have to pay anything towards it, cos we're such regulars. We ended up very very drunk, doing 'ooops upside yer head' on the floor, much to the amusement of onlookers, who took pics of us like we were animals in a zoo (which only made us worse) then me and Nads have a cracking video of us dancing to 'aga doo' like complete mentalists. I'l see what I can do about getting that sent out by email, it's fantastic. But then the party swiftly ended when the police arrived to kick us all out as the local residents complained! Haha That just meant a trip to the local nightclub though...there was no way Bondi was getting us back to the city that easily!
Sat we spent the day preparing the house for our party, which turned out to be brill. I dressed up as the board game twister. The theme was a 'T' party, so basically you had to dress up as something beginning with T. All very funny. We had tourists, tress, the Taliban, Mr 'T', transvestites, etc etc. Loads of drinking games and drunken behaviour, and lots of fun dancing to old school tunes...bring on rhythm is a dancer! And from there we went out to celebrate Mardi Gras and got refused entry everywhere cos we were dressed as complete wierdo's!
Sunday I spent the whole day dying, and was still recovering on Monday, which meant yet another day off work, and on the beach! Hard times.
Tuesday I worked at an after school centre, which was a right laugh. The kids were actually mentalists, and my theory was proven when one of the kids ate one of the goldfish! Yep, you heard me correctly, he picked up this huge juicy fish, with a bushy tale, very similar to a Nemo I once knew (before my nasty housemate killed him) and he put it in his mouth and ate it! It actually wasn't the kids fault, as he has special needs, but it's still something I won't forget in a hurry! All a bit of a drama.
Then, to top my day off, I finished work and had a near death experience....ACCIDENT NUMBER ONE OF THE TRIP!!! I left the centre and was walking down this quaint Ramsay Type Street, when I walked under a tree and something fell onto my head. My first reaction was to s*** myself (as I didn't know what it was) and throw my head from side to side (like an absolute nutter to onlookers) and then I had a little feel to make sure the foreign object had disappeared, but it hadn't! It felt like a piece of bark or a dead leaf...no drama, and it was tangled in my head, probably from the swinging my head scenario, so I just decided to pick it out (although I was still a bit scared by the fact that something had taken refuge in my hair). Well, as it happened it wasn't a dead leaf, or a piece bark, I don't even no what it was but it took a bloody good bite out of my finger, and so I was bitten, or stung depending on what type of creepy crawly it actually was, and it still kills 4 days on!!! While all this was happening I was actually on the phone to Nads (that's proof of multi-tasking if ever I've heard it) and she was witness to my 'omigod I think ive been bitten by one of them poisonous Australian spiders, call me an ambulance, I think I might be about to die' speech, which she actually just found dead funny, and told me to get on the tube and get home for tea. Nasty cow! I killed though, and to this day its all a bit of a mystery as to what it was that attacked me! Crazy ass Australian insects!
Then, on that note, I was walking to work today, and on the pavement in the middle of the city was this huge (I really do mean huge) black and yellow spider, with a white body just casually strolling along with the rest of us. I didn't stick around too long to witness him any longer than I had to!
I've got more to say, but not enough time to say it, so I'll be back in a few days with my Summer Bay update.
Speak soon, love you xxx
