omgawd. so i havent posted anything since november 20. thats ridiculous! there is so much, yet really SO little to share.
MAJOR NEWS – i am back in australia already – i ran out of money GODDAMNIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
anyways heres a run down of what happened snce my last post.
most stuff will have no dates but the first thing i remember because it was the day after my last post and two major things happened that day!
~november 21 – saw twilight. thought it was epic cheese…even moreso than the books. this did not stop me from going to see it 2 more times though. haha.
when i got back from the movies i went online to see if i could get tickets to the Lady Gaga show that night downtown. she was opening for New Kids on the Block but later in the evening doing her own headlining gig. anyways her show was sold out so i was checking online to seei f there were tix for New Kids. there were….so i got off my ass and hauled arse IN THE FUCKING RAIN down to GM Place and bought a ticket – on the right side, pretty decent distance from the stage. a BILLION times better than the tix i got for new kids when i was 14! 😀
anyways i then had to wait for another 2 hours before the doors opened. i was quite damp.
lady gaga was AWESOME but if she was on teh stage longer than 20 mins….well it didnt FEEL like it – her set was over so fast! then natasha bedingfield or whatever her name is came on and she was on FOREVER………..BLARGH!
finally the boys came out and i screamed my fucking lungs out for the entire show….yes i was channelling my 12=14 year old self! 😀 i didnt know ANY of the new songs though. haha
anyways surprise surprise i got a sore throat which developed into a full on cold for the next week.
also during that week met cute spanish guy who went up north to be a chef and make big dollars in teh oil fields for a few months, saw twilight again, read the rest of the Twilight series. became full on fangirl.
dates are all vague from here on. things are in order but not sure when exactly they happened.
~also became obsessed with Dr Horribles sing-a-long blog
~Jacob became my fave Twilight character
~changed hostels around teh end of nov/start of dec.
~went to the Capilano Suspension Bridge. took lots of pics.
~IT SNOWED. i was ecstatic.
~but then it didnt STOP SNOWING…..icy sidewalks are not my friend!
~went to a place called Brackendale to see american bald eagles. took many photos. also went to shannon falls where i fell on my ass (nice one eh?) and this place that has bunnies come out that you can feed. normally there are like hundreds??? we saw four. 😀 took some weet photos though!
~more snow.
~registered at a temp agency
~saw twilight again and the movie bolt in 3-D(very cute)
~went xmas shopping for peeps i was gonna see at xmas – fell on ass in the snow again
~went to vancouver island for xmas. ferry was cool. sisters friend and her family were wonderful! had eggnog for the first time! had proper turkey xmas dinner. HAD VERY FIRST WHITE CHRISTMAS BITCHES! AWWWWYEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
~went back to vancouver. bottle of sprite leaked in my handbag and KILLED MY FRICKING CAMERA – no more photos!
~more snow!
~ran out of money.
~flew home.
trip home was epic. 13 hour flight to taipei – 15 hour LAYOVER IN TAIPEI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 then another 9 hours to syd. fucking hell. first flight and the layover – i slept maybe a total of 2 and a half hours. i was dying by the time we boarded the flight for syd!
i had called the airline sometime before new years and they put me on a waiting list for the 3rd and teh 6th. the third they could get me on the flight from taipei to syd but not van to taipei, and the 6th was the other way – could get on a flight from van to taipei but not yet for taipei to syd.
anyways they called me early in the arvo on the 3rd saying i would have to go to the airport that night and go on standby…..but then they called me a couple of hours later and told me it was all good – i had a seat for both flights and i didnt have to be on standby. i was soooooo happy. i didnt want to haul arse to the airport only to have to haul arse BACK to the hostel.
anyways when i changed hostels i got into a bad habit of sleeping in heaps (probably why i failed to get a job – though around teh time i registered at the agency i applied for a heap of jobs) and then going out and getting food in the evening. i usually only had one meal a day. i found this japanese place and they made THE BEST GYOZA EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i would usually go in there and just get the gyoza…though sometimes i bought other stuff. if i wasnt eating gyoza i was eating kfc for dinner. i have never eaten so much kfc in my life!
anyways so got home last week on monday.
on thursday we went down the coast to se my aunty for a few days. my cousin bill and his wife just had another baby a few days before so i got to have a cuddle. hes soooo cute!
so yeah – THE PLAN is to get a job and save money and GO BACK TO CANADIA ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!! and this time make a serious effort to find a fricking job. at least i dont have to worry about registering for a SIN and all that – its all done!
oh and SOOOOO funny (NOT!)! a job that i applied for even before registering at the temp agency contacted me at the end of last week to ask if i wanted to come in for an interview…..i totally lost it man! i was cackling like a maniac
it sounded like an awesome job too- if only they had contacted me sooner i could have stayed!
WAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
anyways so now you are all updated. i still havent uploaded photos yet – i am being mega lazy. i am not looking forward to the resize before uploading thing i always do – there are a LOT of photos. haha but as soon as i do i will definately share on here. i only saw a tiny lil bit of canada and it was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!
