I forgot the kid that lives in number 4's name. i know it starts with a z. oh
well. so another day another dollar spent, rather three to be exact. two for
the washer, fifty cents for the internet, and another fifty for an attempt at a
phone call. i seem to have a defective phone card.
the phone booth is mighty warm but to call out of my room requires buying a 10
phone card and it costs 50cents to make every call. i am considering buying a
mobile phone. i think it will end up costing $100 to have and use a mobile
phone which only makes 10 phone cards and that isn't including the phone cards
that i would have to buy to pay for the minutes.
it would seem i am decided then. on to another topic, australians like to
drink. i think this is really an understatement. we looked at kelly's (an
australearner) flat mate jake's photos, all very trolleyed (drunk). today i
came back from the orientation session to find z's (my flat mate whose name i
forgot) friend chilling with a gingerale and a bottle of some sort of alcohol
beverage. i think at one point of our conversation he said "i just want to
drink." case in point, while walking back from the coolest little sports bar
last night cameron's (australearner) flat mate tom asks me to show him where he
lives because he doesn't remember when he is drunk. this folks is a monday
night. and student night is tuesday.
i have figured out the library ver sucessfully and i am pretty sure i can get
around campus easily now. i have one bus down and the train seems pretty easy
too. tonight is free dinner! which is fabulous because it means more beer
money. they are fond of sausages here which i am really not wanting. cross
your fingers for fruit! they have amazing apples here.
right i have to go get my laundry off the line, which for me is a novelty and
then off to dinner. hope you all are enjoying the snow. and ps i was kidding
about the beer money lady.
