Hopefully this turns into a series...

Thursday night was pub night and before we left a couple of girl's here decided to "borrow" a life-size paper mache tree from a room on my floor that had been left open. We put the tree in my room because I had the most space and left for the pub. I returned later that night, entered through the balcony and proceeded to trip over an unknown obstacle in my room. I stumble towards the light switch, turn on the light and see my room lovingly trashed and my entire bed missing from my room. Notice my boots stuck on the ceiling fan. I look around and someone locates my bed in the bathroom. After replacing my bed and putting everything back together I go to sleep. The next morning all of the toilet seats had been taken off of the toilets. Retribution will be swift and imminent.

Last night was Barefoot Benefit which was an annual cocktail charity event that raises money for the impoverished. Cocktail attire, no shoes and cheap drinks makes for a sticky night...will post pictures later. It also looks like most people got a case of food poisoning..

Today was my second day of work at a Vietnamese/Thai restaurant called Beyond the Red. Unfortunately, it looks like I will be quitting tomorrow for many reasons. It is much easier to find a job in Australia and the pay is excellent. Minimum wage is $15 an hour if you are over 18 and on average around $20 if you are over 21. I am in dire need of a job.

This week I booked my plane tickets to New Zealand for two weeks at the end of September. I am looking forward to a series of adventures or misadventures.

Oh so I accidentally had a wrong setting on my blog that didn't let anyone that wasn't a follower make a comment. It is fixed now, go crazy.

    Sounds like your fellow residents are going crazy. Trust it's all in "fun".
