north makes us sick

5 out of 8 of us were down with sore throat fever and flu. as a result.... we didnt get to cook bak ku teh nor chicken rice for dinner and ing ing who was supposed to be the main chef for the meals, didnt cook.

while all of us imagined monkey mia as a huge island full of dolphins and whatnots, it wasn't. 26km away from its nearest town - denham, has only 5 dolphins coming upclose to humans. -_-
we travelled more than 850km just to reach this oh-so beautiful place as seen in brochures, but all we got was 5 dolphins onshore, and a few more dolphins in the sea. that really wasn't worth the drive and time.

and best part of all, we didnt get to go sandboarding nor steep point(the most western point of western australia) not becoz we dont have a 4WD, but we dont have the pump. -_- so why on earth did we bother paying extra for a 4WD when we aren't using the 4WD function???

on the other hand, kalbarri had alot more to offer in terms of natural scenery. although we had to do more den 5km of walking in a day just to see stuffs, it was worth the walk.. magnificent gorges and very very pretty sceneries.. especially with the sea and the sun rays as the background.. and we managed to see some white whales too!

thankfully, there was only one occasion where 2 kangaroos hopped across the road while we had enough time to brake and although it rained almost every day down north, we managed to cover the main attractions..

yay!

im going to monkey mia in 4 hours time until.... sat.

my first time going for a long trip with a pretty big group..im in charge of the meals and accounts!

please dont rain..
please dont rain hails either..
please dont let us meet a kangaroo on the road..
please dont stop the fun!

i've earned $1640 in the past month! and another 224 bucks for the last weekend.. not that im freaking rich, but i feel so proud of myself! haha. aussie 1.8k is equivalent to sing dollar 2000+, which is as good as what a full time job pays in spore. after seeing what i've earned, the aches, the lack of sleep, the amount of yawns, the amount of times i stone is all worth it.

but of coz, when u earned alot, u spend alot as well.... 400 went to my family, another 500 will be spent on my trip down north, and i have been spendin alot eating out..

went for the perth convention centre recruitment day yesterday and i got in! 17.40 for normal days, 21 for saturdays, and 32 for public holidays! gosh, 32 bucks per hour. still unsure if i should take this job up, coz perth convention centre is near city(which means i have to take a bus) and the timings might not fit into my schedule if i take up an admin job. and i hate to say no to good money. damm.

holidays time!

been real busy ever since i started having 3 jobs. im left with only 1 at mac coz.. im quitting the sahara restaurant and im no longer workin at the IT company! i dun have to wake up at 830am everyday now! Perth's Infor Global Solutions is closing down as of 28th sept 2007, thus the no need for us to be there.. the news was really sudden to all 5 of us from curtin, but i can pretty much guess how happy 5 of us were actually in our hearts, since it means the end of the unpaid work. it was nice knowing the 3 guys - mirza, simon and nicholas, as well as the singaporean indian girl sudha. it was also nice knowing the pple in Infor, and special thanks to dennis who always was on the lookout to "take care" of me since i was always complaining of boredom.

i never had enough sleep during this period, so i finally have the chance to sleep all i like again! that's until i get another day job lah. but otherwise i'll be only workin on wkends at mac for now.. see how my interview at technology park goes, if not i'll find work as admin..

anyways, i probably wont start working until end of july coz adrian is planning on a trip down north to shark bay and monkey mia.. la la la la la
