procrastinating

Once again it's been a while since i posted anything, and once again the only time i write on this blog is when i need to think about something other than studying. we've got too much to do, it's ridiculous really, but only two more weeks to go. that's ridiculous as well - it felt like the semester just started. it's been a nice week, had lots to do as well, both of us working too. i love my job - my manager amanda is absolutely amazing, and so is everyone i work with and it's so much fun. it feels great. and i get paid really well..almost 23 dollars an hour and from 4 on saturdays and the whole sunday i get double pay - i get 45 dollar an hour! which is crazy - but crazy good!

this weekend's been lovely. I got my hair cut - finally - on friday. i chopped it all off, my hair's almost above the shoulders now which it hasn't been in ages - a decade probably. but i love it - its so convenient and it flopps prettily when i walk. and it's nice to touch too - win win. then while i was sitting in the stool at toni and guy - lou and jo went to have a look at a house - a house i do think we've got. they've accepted our deposit and applications - we're just waiting for the final call tomorrow. and if all is good - which it should - cause when we talked to the real estater he said that he just needed to check our references and that he was waiting for jo's one to return his call and then it'll be good to go. it says on their website "deposit and application taken" too (which it didn't when he first called) so I do hope and believe that it means that it's ours.

it's in darlinghurst, on 51 yurong st - absolutely perfect location. walk to town hall/train, 3 min from pocket, 5 from thomson st, 5.5 to forbes & burton, chingalings, oxford st, surry hils and everywhere we go. amazing. and just on street off of stanley st - which is darlinghursts restaurant strip. it's absolutely perfect. the four little swedes hwho are moving in will be jo, lou, marcus and myself. a big happy family. it's gonna be a big happy uncrowded house for the first month though since lou and marcus goes back to sweden :( so jo and i are gonna have a huge house to ourselves mehehe

yesterday was not one - but two - birthday parties. first and foremost - Brigitte had her party which was so much fun and absolutely amazing - we baked her cinnamon buns (which weren't absolutely amazing - until Oliver and I joined our master chef heads together once again and baked them in the oven with tim tams) and gave her a lace tote and kinder surprises. she was happy the darling girl. then it was chingalings birthday too - lots of fun. we invited cameron and chrissie to the housewarming we're having the weekend we're moving in, before lou leaves, unfortunately marcus leaves for sweden the day we can access the house :( but we'll throw him a welcome home bash soon as he gets back. i think we might invite frenchie too - mathieu i think his name is - one of the dj's - he's a lot of fun.

lou and i just got back a couple of hours ago, we spent the night at thompson st and i made them breakfast in the morning (it wasn't as appreciated from all people since i woke them up too early) but i couldn't sleep and then lou and i served them breakfast in bed instead which went down a bit better.

well, now i need to keep doing my poster pitch for my major project.

oh, happy mother's day mom's in sweden! x
