MIDWEEK
Got a bit of a scare last Saturday night when I was out with the guys. Learnt that Paul D, whom is in Taiwan, fell sick to Menangitis and was rushed to hospital in a critical condition. Was very upsetting, but thankfully within about 24 hours we learnt he was getting better. Hope everything is OK.....

I've been sorting through piles of overseas memorabilia, photos, bank statements and other related crap. Doing so has given me a grasp of how much I actually spent whilst i was away. I gotta admit, I had NO idea of the value of money when I first went over. It was all new to me and I spent money as if it didn't mean much or without even realising.. Guess I was just living for the moment. So now if I go back I won't be able to lash out as much and would be forced to work most of the time. Not that that's a bad thing. Still, having done it before, I now know that value of living away and how to look for cheaper alternatives.

So today I worked again. Standard day and I dunno if i really have much to say about it. Container of Lollies came in about 3:15pm and had to unload it at the tail end of the day. Everyone was rushed.

Tonight I caught up with Rob. He's just come back from London as well after spending a fair amount of time there. Says he's ready to settle back down here now. A commitment im not sure of myself. Anyway... Went over to his place first up then drove into Brunswick St with himself, Rich and Angela. Parked our butts on these mega comfy couches in the corner, (so comfy I could have easily stayed there and fallen alseep) at the Provincial hotel and sucked back a few quiet beers. T'was good catching up again and to talk about stuff we got up to in London. Place was pretty busy to for a Wednesday, it seemed. Oh yeah, me and Rich got chatting about Primary School and people we haven't seen since. I struggled to even come up with names as I could hardly remember anyone. Mind you this was looking back to Grade 2 and 3.... Naturally afterwards we ended up at the Souvalaki King, Standard. I resisted though and merely opted for a few Dimi's and a Potato Cake. Robs comments after eating a Kings Choice. "Now i've been to the King I know im really home!" Great Stuff. I love Brunswick St.
