Ok, still no job. Turns out now is the time when uni students are on holiday, so all the available jobs are filled by them. But they should be gone in a few weeks, so remaining hopeful.
But me and my friend are doing our little things to keep the money we got. Eating spaghetti on toast for dinner, getting the free breakfast, stretches out the pennies.
We got removed from the kickass hostel. Basically we didn't book another week quickly enough, and they booked our beds for other people, so we had to move hostel. Now in a dingy, horrible place, so we're staying out of there as much as possible in the day.
But I've booked us back in for next week, so there's light at the end of the tunnel.
Battery's about to die, so hope you're all ok.
Speak soon.

Saturday 6th,
Not feeling great. Me and my friend discovered a DVD room in the crappy hostel, which has raised it's standards slightly. We still try and avoid it throughout the day, but at least there's somewhere to chill.
Anyway, last night we watched The Dark Knight. With goon (cheap box wine). And I drank a lot. Like three litres of the stuff. Embarrased myself slightly, apparently. But not unrecoverably. Like, I was funny.
But gotta limit the stuff.
I'm reading a book, I can't remember the name, but it's about a man who took meladin (?), a drug, and got someone to record how he behaved and what he said while going on this inner trip. And basically, I've read that throughout history, mankind has been on a voyage, trying to escape this world and mentality by taking drugs, and drinking alcohol. It's a deep, very human need, to escape this world, and people do it by taking drugs and drinking.
I find it a very interesting read. The fact that this universe is not enough for a lot of people.
Strange, huh?
Anyway, I'm beginning to ramble.
It's 45 degrees outside. People have died across Australia, it's insanely hot. Like, you pray for a breeze, and then the wind hits, and it's EVEN HOTTER.
Not fair.
Speak soon, all the best people.
See yaaaa...

Sunday 8th.
Good day peeps. I'm having trouble sleeping. It's been happening for a few weeks now, but I just lie there, for hours.
And then when I finally hit the hay last night, I dreamt of people back home. Woke up troubled.
Maybe tonight it'll be different, but today will not be the best.
Anyway, on a happier note, me and Scott have plans! Basically, he found out it's cheaper to live in Adelaide, and he's got a really good friend there. And he found out the cheapest way to get there is to rent a campervan, and have a road trip, which will be AWESOME. So we're looking into that.
Speak soon, anyway. I try to update whenever I can, but I might go for a few days, maybe even a week, without being able to get to an internet spot.
See ya.

Hello there everyone.
Not too much excitement to report on really. Booked back into the nice hostel, woop. Will buy a pillow today, see if that helps me sleep. The ones at the hostel aren't great.
My friend leaves tomorrow for a few days, he's off to see his friend in the next city. I'm staying here, so I'll try and get into the gym as often as possible and run myself into the ground.
Yeah, I really don't have much to say at all. Sorry.
Just worrying over this UCAS situation, nobody's responding to emails.
Speak soon, anyway.

I read books to escape i think. And drink, but not really drugs. hmmmm. I think u can drink to 'escape', ad become.......temporarily 'unaware' . However, when you read books or films, u go into another world entirely, where u dont even have to be you. Thats pure escapism there. and without the harmful effects. I think i've perfected the art, but it takes a good book or two....
Am now reading a book by the same guy, called "Heaven and Hell." Just as interesting, look it up :).
hmmmm, think ive heard of it. Will do. gonna try this new thing where i read everyones favorites rather than just my own childish fantasy ones. thanks for the heads up! hope u and co r good
