Had a lie in which was lovely, but went to turn my camera on to check the time and it said "fiocus error" so I couldnt take any photos!!!! Just my luck! been a week since then and it still doesnt work... cant understand why as it was working perfectly the night when I checked it before bed, so its not like I had dropped it or got sand in it. So annoyed! Got showered and went on the computer to upload my photos and look for work. Spent ages sprucing up my CV for a job on an island but never heard back :-( Was on the computer when I saw Ross from Sydney! Caught up with him over lunch then went to Base to try and book some more nights, but they were fully booked! Ross knew a guy called Tom that worked in one of the travel shops called Travel Bugs so went in there. Ross tried to sort New Zealand and Tom got me a deal at Nomads so I would be moving there the next day. told Tom I was looing for a job and he said they might have one going, so planned to think about it then go back if I was interested. Think it would be alright, its really quiet but don't really fancy working in a bar and a job is a job! Went on the computer for a bit then went to buy a phone - decided I would need one if I was looking for work. Its not great at all, miss my 3 quid phone! The sun was shining so once I popped backed to Base to charge my phone and get changed, me and Ross headed to the lagoon! Was soo lovely. Chilled out on a grassy area (theres a beach bit but would rather not have the sand!) and chatted, then some people Ross knew met us and we moved to a grassy bank between the lagoon an the sea. Was beautiful, the lagoon looks goreous and the sea, stunning. The colours look amazing in the sun, properly felt likeI was on a lovley holiday!! Chilled out reading my magazine for a while then went back to Base to get my phone, then went into Travel Bugs to use the internet and spent ages setting it all up! What happened to simple pay-as-you-go!?!? Went back and got showered and changed then met Ross at 7.15 - coinsidently, lods of us from Sydney were all in Airlie at the same time! So we met with Tayo, Matt, Mup Mup and Hans from the intro week, and James who Mup Mup and hans were travelling with. Was so weird to see them all! They were all quite quiet though, had been on a long bus journey I think. Met in DUB for one drink then went to Beaches where they were showing the royal wedding. Everyone was going mad for it! Loads of people were in fancy dress, couldn't help but watch it. Kate got a pretty big cheer and everyone sang about how much they loved her, the queen got the crowd a bit rowdy but, the biggest cheer definately came when Elton John and his hubby were on the screen! So funny. So, watched the wedding for a bit then bumped into Victor and James, two guys I keep bumping into on nights out. They are really funny and we were setting eachother stupid challenges to do which was such a laugh. Headed over to Paddy's after Victor had danced topless on the table, where there were a reallllly good live band playing which was awesome. There was a good crowd in there so stayed in there till the band finished, was good fun! We then went over to Mama Africas, the main club in Airlie, where we danced for a while then we walked along to beach and went to McDonalds, haha! hate that its 24 hours! Said bye to the guys and was walking back to Base when I got chatting to a guy who it turns out went to Alton College at the same time as me! He was in my year and we knew loads fo the same people! He has been in Airliefor a while, working as a lifeguard. Such a small world!!! So that was really weird. Couldn't chat for long as I was desperate for the loo so took his number then went home. Couldn't believe it when I checked the time and it was 4oclock! Didn't take me long to fall asleep!
