I had an interview this morning, but it wasn't what I wanted, unless I was going to be here long term.
So I went to the beach this afternoon to soak up the sun!
I went to another interview.. well training I guess not interview.... went to learn to be a waitress... its something I have never done before, so why not try it right!
I am a waitress at Rolo's pizzeria and cafe.. it was busy tonight and there is alot to learn but its fun so far. It pretty easy for me to take orders, talk to people, bring food and clean up... I love all those things!
The cafe is right up the street from my place so I can walk to work in 2 mins!
They don't tip in Oz, but I made a few $$ in tips tonight.
Suppose to have group interview tomorrow but I didn't have time today to get my papers all photocopied- oops!
So in Aus... they don't use PENNIES.. they just round things up! The coins here are $2(looks like a token) $1, 50cent, 20cents, 10 and 5 cents! I took a pic today to show them all, I'll post it soon!
My housemates are great... I live with 4 other people in a cute lil house. Fei is my roommate, he is originally from China, Joesph is originally from Uganda, and Mario and Natalie are both from Aus. Fei has the biggest room in the house and so I rent out the "sun room" area.. which is pretty nice n roomy and has real walls etc... I have a bed and a desk and a mini fridge, just cuz I told Fei he didn't have to move it! I share a HUGE closet with Fei and the house has 2 bathrooms, livingroom, kitchen and nice size backyard with cute clothes line to dry our wash!
I went to a Comedy Show last night with a friend of a friend named James..... we sat in the front row! Mc/Host Comic was funny... local guy, but his jeans were too tight (literally)
first act was a new guy, he did about 3 mins, then another local guy, he was ok. Next was a hilarious lil guy who smiled ALOT and was sort of whispery and cute.... he almost seemed special needs.. but he was sooo funny... it hurt, was awesome!
The main act was Alonzo Bodden was the winner of last comic standing, he is from USA! He did a lot about Obama and American things... but def did some Oz jokes too! He was picking on a guy in the front row who would NOT stop texting... was so funny.
He came over to us and asked what my name was.. and what I do... I said Nothing (for job) and he said you just live off the land? and I said Yes.... and he said to James "Oh you must be the land" lol..... good times!
I had plans fri night and sat... but now I am working all weekend.. which is ok cuz I only work about 4 hours at night.. so I can hang with friends in the day and then go out after work if I want, cuz I end at 9 or 10!
Chatting with Michelle in FL... and her NEW Baby boy... so exciting!
Much love to all
