Wow- so much has happened!
Into my third week working at the bakery and i really love it! It isnt exactly hard work but im really good at it probably because im very intrested in cakes anyway... i get plenty of free food to take home and eat breakfast and lunch at the bakery which saves me lots of money. I work 4 days a week and have fri, sat and sun off which is fabulous!
A couple of weeks ago Vanessa bought a DVD player and the boys joined Blockbuster so we all spent a lot of time watching films. Emma bought a mini pool table and a few games aswell and we'd all been travelling for so long and the evenings started to get very cold so it was great watching lots of films and chilling at home.
Once a week I try to go to Perth city centre to remind myself that there is more to life than Mandurah and Secret Harbour. I do a bit of shopping, upload my photos onto the internet and eat japanese food. Last Sunday me and Emma went for a day out to Scarborough beach . It rained a lot all day and was a little bit like being in Brighton! We ate fish and chip, went to see a band perform, got caught in the rain a lot and then went home.
Been spending a lot of time in The Slug and Hare pub where Emma works with the housemates. Reuban the English housemate had a friend visit last week and she cooked us all a meal which was really nice and she was good company as well.
Ok that sort of sums up what i've been up to for the last few weeks maybe a little boring compared to India and Thailand blogs! (Hopefully the next part will make up for it.)
Now for the big news...
We all got kicked out of our Secret Harbour house...
Ok this is what happened...
Reauban got a job in the city so he was moving out anyway we all decided to go out for the night to celebrate his new job etc. We all got very drunk and Sedgewick (french guy) found some French friends which made him very happy as he's constantly struggling with his English. We all ended up going back to the French peoples house to carry on the party. We finally got home at 4.30 in the morning and all decided to cook. Vanessa woke up and shouted and swore at us all. Reuban shouted and swore back while everyone stared open mouthed at what was going on. Everyone has a bit of a problem with Vanessa (who i hate to say it but is a complete lunatic) but no one's ever stood up to her before. Anyway the arguement ended with Vanessa telling Reuban she wanted him out my Sunday (this was Thursday night) when he wasnt supposed to be leaving until next Sunday. The next morning there was plenty of tension in the house. Me and Emma escaped to the beach because it was a lovely day whilst Reuban went house hunting... Later me and Emma found out that Vanessa had texted Reuban telling him she wanted him out by Saturday. Reuban was lucky and found somewhere and moved out.
That Saturday me, emma, the french couple and dave (swedish guy) decided we should look around to see if we could find anywhere else to move because non of us felt comfortable living with Vanessa anymore. We all went to the supermarket to do some food shopping and to buy the newspapers so we could have a look at propertys. When we got home we all put our food away and the only thing left on the kitchen surface were the newspepers. Everyone had gone outside and I was just about to follow when Vanessa come in nostrils flaring asking me to move the newspapers because it was making a mess. Excuse me?
I understand to a certain extent that the house is Vanessa's but she has a serious OCD about cleanliness and tidyness there are 6 people living in the house so sometimes shoes are going to be left by the front door, the remote controls are going to be left on the side (not in a drawer!! i thought they were kept on the side anyway... little did i know...) This woman even puts away the kettle and the toaster after she uses it. What??? And it isnt as if there isnt enough space in the house. I completely respect the fact that this is her house but at the same time when me and Emma moved in she told us that she would only be in the house at the weekend yet she has been in the house every single day. Ok enough of me b****ing...
Back to the newspapers... i didnt move the newspapers and kept walking outside with her shouting behind me. Emma then went inside and found the newspapers in the bin. This led to and arguement between Emma and Vanessa. Which ended with Vanessa shouting at Emma that she wanted everyone out by the next day! Dorethy then went in to try and talk to Vanessa calmly Vanessa had the hoover on and refused to turn it of to listen to Dorethy. Basically we all have to be out by next Sunday. We're all going to try and move together so that takes some of the pressure of.
I hope i havent been to mean about Vanessa. We have all tried to be very patient with her.
Anyway this weeks a new week and we're all searching hard for somewhere new to live. This Saturday me and Emma are going camping with some friends from the pub so that should be really fun!
Hope everyone is doing well.
Lots of love
