Tom's Round The World Adventure.
Well good news is i have finally finished my Sugar Cane job, we did actually finish last Friday but they asked us to go back for an extra couple of days so because of the great money we happily obliged! Our last day was on Tuesday and the boss said we were going to have to come back in the morning to finish off as we had s*** loads to do, and i said to be honest none of us will come back in the morning because we were not willing to get out of bed at 5am for just a couple of hours work. The Boss replies 'Listen guys i have been doing this job for years now so i know for a fact that you wont finish today' OK i said, bit my lip and cracked on. After slaving our f**king arses off for 10 hours in 30 degree heat, we finished the field and i hate a great feeling inside after telling Jon that we would definatly finish that day. Up yours old man. Got back from work Tuesday night and no one could keep there eyes open we were all so tired. Walked through the door and was offered work the next day, desperatly wanting a day off and some sleep, i still said yes, seems as i need all the money i can get in the next few weeks for Thailand. So Wednesday was spent at Bill Jensons farm, he is a really nice bloke so i new me and Anthony would have a good day there. Good day besides being brutally savaged and violated by the 1000's of god damn f**king mosquitos! I used 2 bottles of spray over the course of the day and woke up this morning with about 200 bites. Ouch. I think during the 10 hours i worked yesterday i must have replaced 20 sprinkler heads and layed 2 pieces of pipe. Sank a few beers over lunch, and then again after work and then we got driven home and got back about 4.30pm. Got back to the hostel, and was offered more work picking Squash, 'F**k Off i said im going to get some sleep' I got in to bed at about 4.30pm intending to have a nap and i only woke up at 12.30pm today! And im still tired! Just f**king wandered around today with no real sense of direction..... Made 2 litres of Milkshake and feel sick again which is not good. Tried to watch a couple of DVDS also but DVD player kept crashing, just another thing on the evergrowing list of things that doesnt f**King well work at this god forsaken hostel. Have been so bored today its unbelievable, looking forward to going back tomorrow, to DAVCO.......... They want me back again. I also get 3 cheques from work tomorrow so bumper payday and perhaps a few beers over the weekend. Just bought 2 hours on the internet so i can get my s*** sorted out for Thailand, hotels, trips etc, tickets already sorted just have to go to Townsville to pick them up in a few days. Cant believe im actually leaving, also cant believe im actually saving my money, thats a first. Mum you would be so proud. Looking forward to The Whitsundays this weekend and meeting up with some of the old crew from Delta, lots more hard work over the coming weeks, really cant be assed but im so close to getting out of here................. HAPPY F**KING DAYS!
