wow an entry! =o
well recently i have been working way to much and they have been annoying me more than i normally like from a job, but time after time i just accept it and move on.. after all i dont plan on being there for very long! *fingers crossed i land an apprenticeship SOON!*
but as it goes i work wednesday-sunday, thus making mon-tue my weekend! which is kind of cool..
last weekend i rang in sick on sunday morning (missing out on $220 for the day =( eek) only too head into the horden pavilion to see "story of the year" who were AWESOME.. but to my surprise "flogging molly" an irish folk x punk band that played stole the show in my oppinion! they were great!! the mix of irish folk and punk goes together VERY well..
okay well since i havent updated properly for a hell of a long time.. i should go over what has been happening in my boring life..
for the last 3 months i have been seeing a girl i met at my work.. her name is mel and she is a champion, she is fun, funny and just great to hang out with.. its weird, both her and my families are exactly the same! so going over there is just the same as hanging out at home.. fun stuff.. the joys of growing up with tradies.. they are all the same =p
other than hanging out with mel and working way too much i havent been doing much other than riding, working on/playing with my new toy..
with any sort of luck ill get a real job soon and out of this hospitality bullshit.. then i will have time to have more fun!! =)
okay well i dont know if i can be bothered typing more now so i am going to post lots of pictures..
( fun fun FUN ) |

recently, mostly all my life had been is work sleep work sleep..
however, on wednesday i got the day off! hurrah! so i went in to try and get myself labelled as a thug, anyhow carly and myself got to the place and were waiting around for a while, and we looked through their booking book and realised that it may be a while before i could get it done.. anyhow a woman that worked there came in, made a phone call, and then when we finally got some service i asked when i could get in, and she said they had just had a cancellation, and i could go straight in =o which by that stage i REALLY wasnt expecting..
anyhow one and a half hours later i come out with this:
fun and unexpected..
then, the next day, i have to start work at 5, about 12pm i wake to a phone call from nth richmond panthers to see if i was still interested in a job there (despite the fact that i put my resume in about 5 months ago).. after a bit of a chitchat with the man, we came to agreement that i would have at interview at 3pm that day.. so after phonecalls to my mother and my dearest carly asking what the hell i was going to do.. i decided to head down and have the interview and just see what happened. at the end of the interview the guy told me, "i have 6 more people to see.. but at the moment you have the job" to which my jaw dropped.. when i went to work i told one of my managers that she might get a phone call from them, and she looked very disappointed, which in turn made me feel rather bad! especially when they have recently decided to train me to work in the restaurant (which is apparently quite the privilege!)
so anyhow.. that was the eventful 2 days.. |

well i wrote a note to the manager at the sebel asking for more shifts.. and i looked at my roster last night, and the crazy jerks have given me 5 shifts, so i am probly going to be working 50hours next week =(
which means i will be both rich and lonely!!
currently i love the job, lets see how i feel about it next sunday!! =(
i worked last night, and when i knocked off, i had exactly 13hours before my next shift starts!! its kind of crazy, i guess i have just nver had a job where, when i ask for more shifts, i actually get them!! |

well i just got back from my 4day escape.. for need of a better description. on sunday night i went upto the entrance and have been doing next to nothing up there since!!
as some of you may know, i am now working at 'the sebel resort and spa' as seen here, as a food & beverage attentant at weddings and other functions, currently it is only weekend work, but i am hoping to get more than a few shifts during the week.. i have never worked in any sorft od hospitality before, but from the shifts i have done at the sebel, i am loving it!! its very strange, i just hope that i continue to love my shiney new job..
other than work, there has not been much play, i am hoping this new warm wether will let me go for a surf sooooon!! that would be awesome.. i didnt take my board away with me because it was stupidly windy last week, and i predicted overall crappyness of waves due to this, but yesterday and today it was purfect for a season-opener! ahhh well.. hopefully there will be plenty of time for surfing this summer.. |

well, its saturday morning and im sitting inside waiting for dad to finishing preparing all the stuff so i can be a brickie.. i dont mind working at home on saturdays.. i do have to work my ass off for $zero.. but it is good to have a hand in the house getting finished.. although by the end of the day i am absolutly stuffed..
as of last thursday i am without work again.. we finished the job for kates dad.. so now.. i am unemployed, except for my terrible caltex job.. stupid caltex!! *shakes fist* who would want to work friday nights anyhow! but i cant really live on that because i only work 1x6hour shift a week and that one gives me $68 (+ what ever tip the nightly drunk gives me..)
yesterday before work i took my resume to nth richmond panthers in the hope that i could get a job there, but annoyingly enough when i took it down there were no sheets that you have to fill in.. so i have to drive back down on monday and try and fill it in..
on thursday night i went to carly's and was incredibly tired after having about 22hours sleep since sunday morning.. while i was there her dad was still removing the slate floors with the jackhammer.. which was a VERY loud noise.. and as an example of how tired i was i managed to fall asleep at 8:30 (which is STUPIDLY early!!) and slept through 3 and a half hours of jackhammering and was woken up at 9:30 friday morning because we were going out.. which is pretty insane..
while i dont have a job im going to try and get to the gym as much as possible to get some decent workouts.. because i hate not hiving time to go, or being way to tired to go as i was last week..
next week my mum is getting an operation on her knee.. she had x-rays taken because it has been hurting for bloody ages and she has a bone fragment floating around in there.. so i am going to be the mum for the next week or 2.. although it sux to see her in pain i was the first one to look at the x-rays and i saw the fragment and said that was what was wrong with it.. and noone else could see it until i showed them.. i was pretty smug when the doctor told her that it was a bone fragment that was the problem.. maby studying anatomy did help me somewhat.. even if i did fail it.. hehe
so far taking this semester off was such a good idea.. i have been so relaxed and just plain happy (for the most part).. knowing that all i have to do in the week is go to some sort of work and earn a few $$$ is so much better than my previous semester of going to uni 5days a week and stressing my ass off about how much i have to learn and worrying about my next assesment and all that crap..
although i will go back to uni if i dont get the apprenticeship i want its just a matter of time..
currently my grandparents are on holidays up at cape-york.. which sounds like it would be very awesome.. but when they come back i am going to head upto the entrance and stay with them for a week or so.. just hang out with the oldies, play some lawn bowls and just relax.. hehe.. my grandparents are fun and i enjoy hanging out with them.. which probly sounds like a weird thing coming from an 18yo guy.. but its true..
well although that was a very fragmented post about nothing much at all.. it was good to finally update.. (sorry if nothing there makes sence) |

hmmm.. my uncle (well family friend who i have always called uncle), has told me that i should do an apprenticeship in avionics for qantas defence.. it would be cool.. basically what it is - i would learn how to build and program the computers which are in the planes.. which i like the sound of.. so i am considering it..
but being an apprenticeship i wouldnt be able to start until next year anyhow.. but, it does sound fun.. |

ahhhh..
i am getting my RSA certificate tomorrow.. its going to cost me $75 so i better use it.. the RCG one is on next monday, same price so im $150 out of pocket..
i am thinking very seriously about taking this semester off uni and earning some $$$.. im not sure if i want to go back to study my science degree.. it bores my pants off.. (look out!! =O ) im currently wanting to study economics or some sort of business degree.. there is a double degree in economics/law that has caught my eye.. but in the whole i have no idea what i want to do.. and it stresses me out because i just want to get all this stupid study over..
life is difficult.. school was fun.. oh to go back to school.. |

well it is now a week later.. a few facts you might or might not read are:
i had my 18th on saturday night.. and considering the relatively small turnout, it was a very enjoyable night.. lots of jollyness all round!! thankyou everyone who came..
i had my first uni exam today.. and i went incredibly badly, the lecturer told us to learn each system in the body, ie. nervous system, in some detail, which i did.. got to the exam and saw the wankoff questions that had been made for us.. and was very confused and irritable..
i took the heaters i borrowed from work back about 10 mins ago.. and the boss told me that now im 18 its un-economical for me to be working my awesomely cooshy saturday shift.. which makes me sad sad sad.. i dont know if im going to be unemployed or if he is going to -somehow- get me another weeknight shift.. but as stands currently all the week shifts are full.. so who knows.. loosing a job makes me sad!! =(
i dont want to do my uni course anymore.. it bores me to death.. and because of this i have no will to study it at all.. and thus i am going to fail.. but then im not sure how you go about changing courses.. i would like to do some sort of business or economics course maby.. im not sure..
if i fail bio1 and/or chem1 there is no point me going back next semester as they have to be passed before i can do bio2 and chem2.. which there is a very real possibility i wont pass them.. this also makes me sad!! =(
i dont like the way the above point doesnt start with "i (something)".. it is very free willing and radical of it..
to end this post i wish to say:
RECOMMEND ME A FUtURE (career path)!! |

ANTI VSU!!!
is what i hear.. but today i noted how great it is to be at a uni with only science students.. and mainly pure science subjects at that..
there was an anti VSU thingo at uni today.. seriously there were about 30students standing around.. and, my guess would be that the free sausage sandwiches they either had in their hand or were in line to get was the only reason they were there..
science students dont seem to give a shit about student pollitics and its bloody awesome.. THANKYOU HAWKESBURY UWS!!
the people that are anti VSU are the ones that get their pockets linned with the cold cash wrongfully stolen from students and poorly distributed.. somewhat like a pyramid scheme.. |
