I'm tired and my feet are sore. Which means I've been working! And now I finally found the time for a little bit of an update. I got back from my little holiday on Tuesday. I didn't really go on a holiday, I just went back to my mum's house in Kingscliff for a few days.
Last week on Thursday was my first shift. It went really well and I love working with my fellow employees at EB Games. The in store music is amazing: MGMT, The Ting Tings, The Killers, Kings of Leon and the Presets. Felix picked me up after work and we went back to my place. We discovered this cute little Thai restaurant at the end of my street which makes amazing food. I think we will make it a regular hang out.
On Friday Xander drove me to Kingscliff. A few days before Eden's mum called me on the phone to tell me about his sister's formal arrivals and she invited me to it. Eden picked me up from my mum's place and we drove to the venue. We took a wrong turn and accidentally went where the formal cars were arriving so we had to drive through all these people with the cameras out. It was embarrassing. Eden's sister Abby arrived with all her other friends in a strech Humma (is that how it's spelt, I'm not from the ghetto) and she looked amazing. I couldn't get over the amount of girls in that grade that look like models. After the arrivals I went and had some icecream in Coolangatta with Eden and he talked to me about his issues. He basically just said that he doesn't want me to distance myself from him and he wants to hear from me etc. It was actually a good conversation.
On Saturday I went to the beach with Simon. The weather was amazing for the whole time I was there. I got a slight tan which can't be helped no matter how much sun screen I use. The water was very refreshing and afterwards we went to the juice bar and indulged in some mango. That night I went out into town with Eden and a bunch of friends and met up with even more when I was in there. It was a really good night, except when it was home time it took forever for a taxi to come and so we just sat in the gutter until sunrise.
The rest of my time there was pretty relaxed. On Monday I went to the gym with Simon. I'm aiming to get really fit for Sydney. On Tuesday Xander and Felix picked me up so I got to Felix how amazing Kingscliff is and he also got to meet my mother.
Recently I've been enjoying the film versions of The Dreamers and Lolita. Lolita is definately one of my favourite movies and I really want to read the book. Yesterday I went and saw Quantum of Solace. And I've also been watching Six Feet Under on DVD.
