I want to do it again, NOW!

Christmas thoughts.

This year will be my first Christmas without my family. It is also the first Christmas in around 40 degrees, instead of -24. There’s going to be no snow, no blanket necessary to go outside to get the cold drink you left to cool down on the veranda. Instead it’s going to be a big Barbie where you don’t want to do anything than sitting somewhere close to a fan or aircon. It’s also going to be a different date of celebration as we open gifts on the 24th back home. I am also going to be working for most of the time but I think I might request the 24th off (as SDS are open till midnight this day)
 
It’s a bit challenging to be happy about all these changes on my favourite time of the year (as I am very childish when it comes to Christmas eve). I need to focus on the good side in order to make this a great Christmas. It has taken a while to adjust to the thought, but I am starting to be happy about celebrating with my awesome boyfriend. We can start our own Christmas tradition now, just like we want it. He realized this way before me and he got us a Christmas tree already, but for him it’s just another normal Christmas, only I’ll be there with him.

Just needed to get some thoughts out there. Write soon! :D

Gold Coast thursday!

I had a great day off from work yesterday! Ina and I woke up early, as we always doo, and went down to the Gold Coast. We bought some snacks (fruit and nuts) and water before we headed to the beach. It didn’t take long until we were in the water, where we stayed and jumped the waves for more than an hour. After lying in the sun for some time after that we went for a second swim before we left the beach. Ina was of course reading to her exam (today).  The weather was perfect, not too hot and a little cloudy. We went shopping and bought cheap food at Wollies which the beards really wanted as they attached us while we were eating with a great beach view. Luke came down to the Coast around 6PM as they had a gig at 8. They played alright, but they have had better gigs as the sound guy was having trouble. 

I can't find my camera so no photos today.

Australia Zoo

I love the new car Luke bought for us :D It’s a Ford falcon 10/2006 model, WITH air con. It’s charcoal grey, and it looks really awesome. Don’t you think?  Ina, Luke and I traveled up to Sunshine Coast to visit Australia Zoo! We took heaps of photos, and underneath you will see some of them.





I love Koalas and here is my favourite from this Zoo visit!

Ina, Luke and I having fun, fun, fun!






I couldn’t stop Ina from taking photos of every Australian Snake, but I can’t post all of them as they are so many different ones. So here some of the snakes I might run into in Brisbane, perhaps on my way to work? I’ve also heard stories where they find snakes in their bathtubs and toilets, hopefully I’ll never experience that!






Ever heard of the crocodile hunter team? Well as you can see on this photo Ina and I stand by our car after catching the croc on the photo :P



 Catch you later alligator.


Oh lazy days! :D

Work update

I have been working a lot since I wrote last. I started with two shifts each week and this week I only had one shift. I came on Monday and the Manager gave me an 8 hour shift for Tuesday. When I came on Tuesday he gave me a shift the day after. Today is Thursday and I just came home from my 4th shift this week. It’s awesome that I am able to work more than the other Christmas casuals, because I really need it. I also get treated a bit differently, like a normal casual, because I am older than the other Christmas casuals, and because I have experience and know what I am doing. I really enjoy working there and I would love getting a permanent position which they have for after Christmas.  Unfortunately I don’t thing I can get it because of my Visa. Wish I was on a different visa.

Write Soon :D

Wrong Visa?

Nothing much is new here in Brisbane. Working two times a week, until the last week of November where I get 4 shifts a week. Love working at SDS and I am starting to get the hang of retail again. Just wish it was a full time position, which is hard to get on this Visa. I’m not too happy about being on this visa, as it’s not really a Visa for my situation. There are a lot of down sides with being on the “wrong” type of visa but it does give me the greatest benefit of all, It allows me to be with Luke so I shouldn’t complain too much.

Ina has decided to go home earlier and she will now be leaving the 10 of December. That’s one month from now (approximately). Not really happy about it, but I can control what she wants. As she leaves we need to find a new person to move in to her room, as we can’t afford paying for her part of the rent. Don’t really want to live with a stranger, but we’ll probably adjust to it. 

Write soon! xx
