Update

So it's been a while since I last updated my blog, I have been very busy.

I have settled well into my new job - the guys are all great fun to work with, the job itself is fun, and it helps that I'm selling things that I'm interested in and enjoy playing with. So the job is paying well and the rent isn't too steep, although I am having to rent two rooms so I have a place to stay when the resident of my current room returns. Once I've got enough money, which shouldn't be too long, I'm going to book a ticket to the UK so I can go to Sonisphere festival (provided Liam gets round to booking tickets).

Anyway, the place I'm staying at is good, my landlady (I guess that's what she is!) is awesome, she reads a lot of sci-fi/fantasy so I have about 5 years reading available to me. It's a 2 minute walk from the beach, which is a freakin' good beach too. Very sandy, so it's nice to go there and lie in the sun, and it gets very warm during the day. I spend most of my time inside though, since I work five days a week.

The police found my stolen bike, which was good. Amusing that they found it in a cash converters, but it's the most likely place for it to end up. I dunno if I mentioned in a previous entry that my bike got stolen - that's how long ago I last updated.

Christmas here was very odd, mainly because it was hot and it felt psychologically wrong to be walking around in shorts and t-shirt on Christmas day. New years was damn good though - I had free tickets to go to a Festival, which had some hip-hop acts, and some drum and bass and dubstep. Needless to say I went and saw all the D&B and Dubstep acts and they were bloody amazing. I did wander over to see Bliss & Eso but wasn't in the mood. Was a brilliant night out, can't wait to do something like that again.

We won a competition at work, so we have $1500 to spend on a night out, so we're gonna go to a restaurant in the evening, then spend the rest of the money on booze. Should be fun.

I have a wonderful day off tomorrow but I have no idea what I'm gonna do. Probably nothing, since it's such fun to do so.
