A new day, another dollar, so I am starting another job again. Tomorrow I am going to be working for ANZ, doing some data entry and administrative stuff. I am a bit nervous, as it is an office setting but it is a three month contract and full time hours so I am also relieved to have some employment. This week is going to be crazy in Melbourne, the Commonwealth Games are already showing their impact on heavier traffic, lots of media and a higher presence of police officers on the streets. I am really happy that I can walk to work as I think commuting is going to be hell this week. I've been keeping a low profile as of late since I have some financial goals and want to save as much money as possible. I have a couple trips lined up for after my working stint here and so it keeps me saving for that. Though this past friday I did have a few beers at the local irish pub here, met some other fellow travelers and locals as well. It was nice, and my little celebration for the new job. I am looking into seeing an aussie rules footie game this week and have some commonwealth events to attend this weekend, boxing on saturday and athletics on sunday. Perhaps seeing the movie Capote tomorrow, as it is "tight ass tuesday". That's it for now, and hopefully i will get some pics up sooooon. I know I said this weekend but somehow it flew by.

 

Hello All,

 

Just a quick note to let you know that Amanda Goulding, my cousins partner is running with the Queen's Baton today as part of the Commonwealth Games. It's pretty amazing the technology of this new baton, you can follow the runner at the time through live video cam feed and they have created sensors on this baton that can tell you how fast the runner is.......might be a good thing or bad! Here's the link http://qbr.melbourne2006.com.au/?s=webcasts If that does not work just go to 2006 Commonwealth Games page. I am looking into getting some tickets as I have never had the opportunity to go to the games before. Should be an adventure.

Ok so you can tell I am currently unemployed, too much time on my hands writing and fiddling with this new msn space, anyways thanks to everyone who is now letting me put their link up on my site. This helps me too so that I can just click a button and see what kind of crazy things everyone has been up to. If there is anyone else who would like me to put up their site please let me know and I will. And no I haven't just sat around all day, only half the day. I have an interview tomorrow morning for Harvey Normans Photo Lab. Yes another photo lab but I would be really excited to get the job because I know I can do it and it would be easy for me. I also dropped my resume off to be a Scrapbook Teacher which would be wicked. I think its only weekends but i really padded my resume and cover letter so here's to hoping.  Thursday morning is the big Greenpeace training day and so I have been at the library reading some environmental magazines. I would like to know as much as I can before going in. Anyways anyone have sites for me I would love to add it to my site.

 

This is my first official entry into my blog. I have no idea if this works or not better than the mass e-mails in which I send, any feedback would be great! If you prefer to go here at your own free will instead of receiving these long novels by me let me know, or perhaps both?
