The last week has been AWESOME! Surfed with dolphins on friday, thought they were sharks at first so shat myself! They were even doing little airs at the end of it though!
Started my trial at surfcamp and loved everything apart from the politics as i thought all the better surfers were quite arrogant. Got pretty pissed on saturday night and got to know all the backpackers at the camp.
Felt terrible in the morning and muted out over breakfast but gradually came out of my hole with the help of flavio my first instructor friend from brazil! He is living here as his wife is a nurse (so jealous).
Had lots of fun with the backpackers, then finally got the train back with Ian (surfcamp chef) and Tbone (surfcamp photog) had some laughs and played never have i ever..
Got back to nicks for an amazing roast beef dinner courtesy of Jackie then watched some surf movies before bed.
Monday was filled with first aid course which went smoothly! Went for a cheeky longboard at north beach and met another nick! Then watched a film with nick before going to bed..
Tuesday was a day Of shopping! Nick and i skated down to wollongong coty centre, stopped off at a big surf warehouse called overboard, looked at some surfboards and sick little skateboards. Then went to the mall and nick bought some computer games. We then went to rip curl shop and annoyed some shop assistants for literally two hours! One was hot and i spent most of it annoying her.. Made friends though! Then went to dominos to get a pizza and skated down a really nice hill after we ordered, skated home with the pizza and nailed it! We then chilled for the night..
Wednesday was a slow start, it was super windy so we chilled then went looking for waves and food. Had a look at a toyota camry station wagon but the automatic transmission was iffy so i decided against it. We then went for a swim, i did 600m and nearly died! NEED TO GET FIT! I cooked food forthw family (nasi goreng - whod have thought!) then chatted with kate and went to sleep. Got woken up by nick ABRUPTLY asking for condoms simce he had gone out and picked up!
Thursday i got up at 6, got picked up at 8 by guy (new boss) and got a lift to surfcamp, we had 60 or so kids to teach so nailed it then went for a quick longhoard which was fun. Met Jake who is hilarious and reminds me of myself for how random he is. I think wel get along quite well! Had lunch then went back out, had another surf after the final lesson of the day then had dinner and presented the slideshow and videos from the lessons today. Then went to a little apartment party and sat under the table for an hour drinking wine from the case on top of the table (right down the gullet!), went back to our trailer and drew a moustache on Ian and got man handled in the process then went to sleep in my new bed (not sofa!).
Friday had surf lessons with the kids started in the water at 6.30 so imagine when we got up! It was horrendous the first session, noone was keen at all! The waves were dumpy and everyone got smashed, the water was cold and the sun wasn't very high. So felt pretty down after and around breakfast around 9. Second session was at 10.30 and the sun was out, waves were better and i made my new friend mimi (instructor from california) wee in her wetsuit in front of me and jake on the beach! It tickled down her leg it was hilarious! So funny from then on, the kids really started getting into it and everyone had a good time!
Went surfing at Werri beach in the afternoon which was reallllllly fun got some good waves and turns and met a pro surfer called dean bowen. Got back, Ian cooked a nice meal (which made him spew after!) and we cleaned the place for the next crew. The crew arrived (52 language students/GERMANS!) and there is some potential! Yeehahhh
