Greetings from the land down under! I haven't blogged in a few days and this is the time where the saying "no news is good news" is befitting :) The only thing wrong is that my feet hurt from being on them all day and I am wondering where my Australian boyfriend is so he can give me a foot massage! haha.
Things seem to continue to get better the longer we are here. I am enjoying work and the people I work with. I worked all night tonight and have a double shift tomorrow and work Saturday and Sunday mornings. I got paid for the first time yesterday (I get paid every Wednesday) which made all the hours seem well worth it. Next week I will get a change in scenery on Thursday night because Harriet, an Aussie girl I work with, and I are going to work Carols by Candlelight. This is an Australia tradition that is a free event where people come together to enjoy great food, sing Christmas carols, and see Santa Claus! I am excited to celebrate this wonderful holiday with Aussies and see the similarities and differences in the way their holiday traditions! Tonight at work a group of women had maybe one glass too many of red wine and walked out of the restaurant singing Christmas carols....it made me smile :)
So the great news is that Jenni got a job at Boheme too! She had a trial today and I am so proud of her for proving herself in the field of hospitality. This is her first waiting job and I know she will be great. Tomorrow night we work together so it should be a fun night! This will be a good way for us to meet locals and make money at the same time. Way to go Jenni!

Our German guy friends left for Sydney Tuesday on a Greyhound bus. To see them off we all went to the beach Monday night, enjoyed some beers, and MANY laughs!!! I seriously haven't laughed that hard since I can remember! It was one of those nights where the silliest things had J and I laughing so hard there was no noise, just convulsions :)
Nothing shows your character more than what you laugh at.
