Chapter 3 - My second week

Well this week hasn't been as interesting as last weeks but it was still a great laugh, im also typing this after 3 heavy nights and im still kinda drunk, sooooo my grammar is going to be even worse!!

Sunday 31st May (evening), well im starting where i left of last week when i was in the office typing. Once i finished typing my blog i went back to the hostel to meet up with the rest of my group to go for our meal up Sydney tower restaurant, which was amazing, the food was great (all you can eat), everyone started off with small portions but i stacked my plate im high with crap loads of meat! The view was amazing, we were slowly revolving so we saw the whole of sydney and it looked beautifull at night when its all alight, especialy the opera house as it was changing colours.

Later on that night when we all got back most of the group started to drink, i had a few then called it a night as i was shattered!

Monday 1st June, My bad luck day, The new OzIntro lot were here so i made some new friends, i have been speaking to Michelle alot over facebook before i left so it was good to finally meet her in person, she came over with her friend Ashley and they were sharing a room with Amber, Bonnie and Faye... o and some random guy who packed his stuff and left on wednesday but no one knows why, prob cause he tryed stripping in a club the night before.

But that was the only highlight of my day as everything was going wrong for me that day! Jordan, Lieshya, Craig, Daryl and Fi changed hostels so they were in the city but i stayed at Surfside with Brogan. In the morning i broke my phone and lost the back of it so that pisssed me off. When the other lot got there room i went over to see them and to book my flight up to Cairns, with my last $10 i was shitting it as i didnt know what the hell i was going to do for the rest of the week, when i got off the bus i realised that i forgot my passport so i couldnt book my flight... i was feeling proper rough and stressing out about everything that day but Jordan found a job for wednesday so that was one good thing. When i was making my way back from the city to go to my hostel i was sat on the bus with my 60 quid jeans which i havnt had for long and i jumped of the seat fast and got them caught on some metal spike or something so they ripped all the way from the waist straight down the back of my leg .... so i had to get of the bus with a massive rip down my jeans in a very bad mood! When i got back everyone found it funny but not me as loads of small things were just going wrong that day for me, but when i got back Brogan made me some dinner (shes a great cook and loves cooking). Everyone felt sorry for me so i had loads of hugs... and alcohol and Natalie brought me some chocolate so i was happy again.

That night we all got drunk with this weeks OzIntro group as Keenan, Howard, Lindsay, Chris and Tom where leaving at 0500hrs the next day to fly up to Cairns. Not much to explain as i dont remember much, haha.

Tuesday 2nd June, My Lucky day, Woke up in a much better mood today so i was hoping i would have a great day, which i soon did! Found $100 randomly in my bank so i could afford 3nights stay and some food for those days. But we were booking flights today so i was going to hang back for another week as i dont get my money till the 10th June but Fi-Fi was a legend and she loves me so she payed for my flight and said to give it back at the end of the month! CHEERS FI!

Everyone went back to Wake Up (there hostel in the city) and me and Brogan had nothing to do so after we had dinner we decided to go for a walk. We done the Coogee to Bondi beach walk which takes about 45mins .... took us 2hours through tropical rain which was practically flooding everything so we got drenched through! We made it finally though but spent about 10mins there then got the bus back! was about 2200hrs when we got back drenched but we had a great laugh on the way. Danni (girl who works at surfside) her mate Carly and a few others went back to her apartment to watch a film. I decided to head off early as i had to get up at 0500hrs for work the next day.

Wednesday 3rd June, My Working day, 0500hrs i was up washed and ready for my first days work here in Australia earning 420 per hour which is a tenner back home, so it was pretty sweet. Went and met Brogans brother Jordan at Wake up as he was working with me today .... i told him to meet me outside at 0645hrs but he wasnt there and when i rang he was still asleep, he expected me to wake him up!! On the way there i was crying with laughter as Jordan was freaking out about this guy were working for, he was freaking out about if he kidnaps us, makes us do things to each other, rapes us and cut us up. I was laughing so hard but i have to admit i was freaking out too so we came up with an massive story to make us seem like were expert fighters and we do boxing professionally. When we met him he only had two seats in his car so he asked who was going to jump in first ... Jordan said i would go first straight away so i was freaking out the whole way. As soon as we both got there (not knowing exactly what we were supposed to be doing) we went to this massive warehouse where we had to move massive boxes of chocolate and cans of drink. It was supposed to be 6 hours work but we blasted through it in 3hrs so he payed us for 4hrs ... i wanted more as we worked hard, lol.

Left Jordan at the city and made my way back to Surfside, Brogan was at work so i went and got a McDonalds ... yes i know im lazy and couldnt be bothered to cook even though all the other girls were offering to cook for me, was great! Just chilled out that night with everyone in the common room watching a few films then had an early night, only person left in my group was Ali as Natalie left in the morning to go to a diffrent hostel with her fella. Ali drank my goon and got drunk and then went to bed as she was leaving at 0500hrs the next morning.

Thursday 4th June, My boring day, Well i had a nice lay in today as i knew i was the only one left in my room and everyone was at work so i was bored out of my head .... so i decided to get all the mattresses in my room and make a lil fort drinking my goon and doing my suduku puzzle's. Before Brog went to work we went looking for a nice place to have lunch and found this well nice noodle bar, was some great food and i had loads so i took some back with me for dinner later as Brog was working again, haha.

Later on i put everything back to were it belonged (apart from all my clothes and other crap which was just thrown about everywhere), 3 people arrived to stay in my room call Andy, Mikey and Caroline (Irish). They all crashed pretty early as they were jet lagged so i started to drink some more goon with this weeks OzIntro and i got pretty wasted
, when Brog got back we went to the shop and got some cooked chicken and some salad and made some dinner. I have never eat so healthy in my life, as Brog is a proper fitness girl she likes to watch what she eats sometimes so i think i may come back with that ripped body! haha.

Friday 5th June, My messy night with Irish, me and Brog were just chilling in the day as she had no work and i was a bum. Later on i went to Bottlers (shop what sells alcohol as supermarkets are not alowed to sell them here) and got a big box of goon and then decided to start drinking at like 1500hrs ... on my own, Brog then went and met the others at Wake up and went for a drink but as i was so poor i couldnt go.

So Mikey and Irish were drinking with me for a bit but Mikey was feeling ill so he went to bed early, by about 1800hrs i was hammered with Irish (Caroline), i made quite a few drunken international calls that night. Then Irish wanted to go to the Palace which is a club just over the road which is massive, even has Jacuzzi's in the club!! I dont remember anything of this night so this is where im typing what people have told me .... i lost Caroline in the club after out drinking some Aussie boys so i stumbled home apparently and carried on drinking at Surfside with the OzIntro lot .... i was dancing loads, picking everyone up, having arm wrestles with everyone and not making any sense at all. I the apparently fell asleep on the computers where i had to be carried to bed but apprently i opened a window to an empty room and crashed out in a random room which had no one in it.

Saturday 6th June, My homesickness, I was woke up in the morning as Brogan was knocking on the door, i was feeling rough as anything and so was she as she was pretty drunk last night, i was then freaking out as i did not know where the hell i was or what happened last night! It was once i had breakfast and checked in the room that i noticed Caroline hadnt slept in her bed, apparently she didnt come back last night so i was freaking out even more.

Me and Brog went to town as i had to get some money as i was screwed so i waited to hear from the others for when Caroline got back, as soon as me and Brog walked through the great city centre we arrived home to see Caroline there, i apparently had her keys on me from last night and she was chucking stones at the windows for agesssss, then she went back with some Aussie guys and drank all night and hadnt slept yet, but we were both cracking up about it, even when she gave me right evils when i asked if she got lucky .... she didnt, lol.

Me, Brog, Mikey and Leigh (girl from this weeks OzIntro) went to the beach as it was such a nice hot day for a swim and to get some tanage on the go! After spending a couple hours down there i went up with alot of the OzIntro lot to the office as they were going to book flights up to Cairns too. I was proper moping around all day though as i felt like shit and was missing everyone back home! Once everyone got everything booked we went back to the hostel. This weeks OzIntro had there pub crawl tonight so we got the whole hostel out to a full moon party at this giant club next door, which was awsome. All the girls were dolled up and looking HOT and the girl guy ratio is great, haha. I then drank through my hangover with Irish and we went out to get hammered again. I lost $5 at a downing competition so thatwas a waste but after being kicked out of the club we wall went back to the hostel to drink, all the Ozintro lot were back from there pub crawl ... it was 0400hrs when we got back, me and Irish were wasted again and i spoke to her Dad on the phone saying that i will look after her and that shes coming up to Cairns and i cant wait to see her in her Bikini, haha. I then rang home and spoke to my little brother Harrison on the phone, which i dont remember anything of. Finally got to sleep at like 0600hrs ... one guy at the hostel had been drinking for 36hrs, mental!! Also met two girls from next weeks OzIntro .... so i gave them a tour round and they came out drinking too.

Sunday 7th June, My tan and blog day, Well sadly were at the end of this weeks follow up of my adventure! I know sad isnt it. Been to the beach today tanning it up with a few of the people from the hostel, got burried in the sand and after jumping in the sea it sorted out my hangover right away.

Tonight we have drinking games on the go and the guys from Wake Up are coming down so i get to see them! All in all this week hasnt been as adventurous as last week but i would deffinatly say its been more alcohol fueled, my liver must taste like white wine! Its my last weekend here in Sydney until Christmas now so were gunna have a good drink with everyone tonight, i will clear up all my crap tomorrow too, lol. Im going to start writing down everything i do in a journal as i forget quite a bit of my journey by the end of the week, especially as im writing this right now still drunk!!! REYYYY. lol. Next week is going to be great as i've seen pictures of Cairns from the guys up north and it looks amazing, proper sandy beaches and everything. Got a few texts of em saying i'll be like a kid in a candy store with the amount of women around! They know me already, haha. but it should be awsome in 2 weeks time there is going to be tons of people i know up in Cairns so its going to be great fun, especially when we go out, like over 30 of us will be together! And as always im the loudest, cant have anyone taking that title away from me, haha. Even though i felt homesick yesterday im still loving this country, everyone i meet up with is so friendly and i get along with everyone even if the girls were annoyed with me this morning for running in there room drunk and sleeping on the bed, haha. Im also going to make sure that next week im not going to be drunk or hungover when typing this as it probably makes no sense at all and im just rabbling on! Missing and Loving ya all, heard England had some great sun this week!
