Sorry, I've been pretty slack lately. I am currently living in Rochedale, its about 1 hour from the City on the bus. Its a small suburb so everything is pretty low key here. Everything closes at 8:30pm!! Was annoyed at first but after my 6th vodka, I was over it.
My Daily routine has been surfing on seek.com.au, meet & greets with recruiter's and the occasional interviews. I worked last Saturday (12th May), just a 1 day contract but at least it will keep be going for a few more days.
Some weird and annoying things about Brisbane:
1) Only flush on a 2 - Dunno about you all but having to take a piss after someone else is pretty grotty.
2) 3 min showers - I think it takes me 3 minutes just to undress.
3) NO SMOKING - Ok maybe I am exaggerating a bit but when I have a beer or coffee outside, I like to light up a ciggie. No no says the Bartender "You have to smoke outside the barrier". So this involves me standing on the outside of the barrier and with my drink on the inside within reaching distance. Doesn't make sense at all.
But thats not all, there are NO SMOKING zones everywhere you go, this is possibly a good thing because I am currently at boiling point to stop.
4) No footpath - You are either walking on the road inches from getting run over or walking in someones front yard.
I don't see what all the fuss is about with smoking and water ban laws when the people of Brisbane DO NOT RECYCLE! Yip that is correct. They have these partitions in the bins for your recycling to go into, but when the big ole truck comes around, it just dumps all the thrash into one area. Total waste of time.
Better stop now, I am starting to sound like a little school girl that lost her lollipop and this internet cafe has a weird smell.
Will update again soon

P.S. I went to Church on Sunday and it was a scary experience
