Dorm life

[b]Day 47[/b]

so im all on my own (ish.. my other sister is still in Sydney) but im living by myself.. well i would be if it was for the 3 other blokes in my room!

( i'll give $20 for all those who didn't smirk and make some crack about that not be not being unusual!)

So my "Roomies" consisted of a guy the wrong side of 50 from Canada, who was very chatty (he wouldn't shut up!), an Israeli whose English was, well, worse than mine, and somebody called JB from Norwich who looked like Eddie Izzard, it was uncanny, but i refrained from telling him as i thought "Hey mate, you look just like that funny tranny off the telly!" might get us off on the wrong foot.

but not that it mattered because they have all left this morning, was it something i didn't say? or maybe that Thai curry i had last night didn't go down too well... i'll never know!

(im starting to see a pattern developing with people around me leaving all the time think i might have some abandonment issues ;o)

So ive been " On my bike!" as dear old Norman Tebbit once told us, to find a job. Wandered around the CBD (Central Business District) handing my CV to anyone who'd have it. Chairman of the Bank of Australia is what im hoping for.... but the kfc down the road is what i'll get, as you can only work here for 3 months at any one time so at kfc i'll be the longest serving member of staff if i get a job there.

So that it, off to do that all again today (might throw in a bit of sight seeing today as well)
and wait with trepidation to see who else moves in with me today, im crossing my fingers and praying for 3 Swedish backpacking girls (only because they'ed be nice and tidy obviously!)

"$20" and I bet you'll want that back too??? Just like all those emotional dollars you gave out to the lads before jetting off...or running outside with the doctor :o)
