he's just not that into you

My day was okay. I turn off my alarm at 9am, and woke up again just before 10am. Got up and got dressed and went out to have breakfast, make some lunch and organise my bag for the day. My bag was gone from the table, which wasn't good, but soon found it, as someone who doesn't live here had moved it without my permission (wasn't really impressed by that action). Moved bag back to table, ate breakfast, did hair and make-up and still made it in time for the 10.37am bus.

Sat on the bus for an hour, and finally made it to Shellharbour Square. I went into Angus and Robertson and applied for a job. Got to speak to the manager, he was nice enough. I hoped he thought I was nice enough for an interview, as an interview means I'm one step closer to a job, which would be great. I need a job, as I just got an email from Myer yesterday saying I didn't get the job I went into the interview for. And even worse is, I can't apply for another position at Myer for another six months.

I think I found a nice pair of flat mary janes. I didn't buy them, as I often think about if I really want to buy something, but I did purchase a cutlery set from Target. It was just too cute to say no to. All the handles are baby pink with white spots. And they will last a few years, so it was a good investment ($25 can be an investment when your unemployed and living out of home).

I went to Greater Union and saw He's Just Not That Into You. I really like that cinema, much more leg room, and the seats are more comfy. And I quite enjoyed the movie.

I bought my first chopping board.

I know it's not much, but it feels like alot for me. Just buying homely/kitchen things is making me feel a whole lot more grown up.

First saucepans and fry pans, knives, cooking utensils.

Nineteen February, Two Thousand & Nine

I turned 22. It was a good day. Only I burnt my thumb on the toaster, which was not very pleasant. But I did wake up to see this sleeping under the porch.

I call her Shleepy, as everytime I see her, she is sleeping in the garden, on the bark.

I got a free Boost Juice, because it was my birthday.

I love free things. I love birthdays.

I went over to my mums for dinner. We got some Red Rooster, as she was feeling sick and didn't feel up to going out for dinner as planned. I got the tropicana pack. I love a good battered pinapple. So not good for you, but they taste so great.

My mum took me out for lunch on Friday. It was so good. We went to Centro, at the Italian Centre. It used to be my favourite restaurant as a kid, but it has since been renovated, and is all classy and posh looking, but still great (I secretly miss the old 80's interior). The food was great, and I got a free Corona from the waiter. 

I went out on the town that night with Mel and Ally. It was good night. I havent been out like that in ages, and I miss it, and want to do it more often. We started out at Unibar, where we had some shots.

I then took a self-portrait

We got fascinated by many things on the walk to North Gong

We made it to North Gong, where I drank. I like to drink

We sat in a gutter and ate some food

We met up with Mels boyfriend and went to the Illawarra

We thought this guy was cute

I like to keep hydrated, and show off some underwear at the same time.

This is Mel. We have known each other since we were 4. I hope we are still friends when we are 94

Job Interview

I think it went well. I hope it went well. I find out in 7-14days.

My day started out crap. I slept through my alarm. Lucky the rain woke me up. I was thinking it was too light to be before 7am, so I check the time... it was 8.10am! Fuck! I managed to get dressed, do my hair and make-up and eat breakfast in 20mins. Disco! 

I love these shoes. So cute. I get so many compliments for them.

My mum was nice enough to drive me to the station, and I ended up missing the train, but there was a bus going to Waterfall in 10mins, so it was all okay. And I still got to Bondi Junction at 11am, which was part of my plan.

I wandered around Westfield searching for Myer, and then I found it, and was early, so went in search for a hot chocolate, and then browsed Miss Shop. Decided to go up 20mins early, and I wasn't the first person there, so all was good.

The interview was okay. Standard group interview process. Introduce yourself to everyone else, say what store you prefer to work in, and an interesting fact about yourself. Fill out some forms. Get i.d. checked. Activity time. The End. Enquire about the chance of getting a position at Wollongong Myer. Little chance. Bummer. So if I get a job, I will be travelling on a train for about 4hrs each work day, but I won't complain (or complain too much), as a job is a job, and I need and want a job.

I went shopping after the interview, in Myer. Wow, the change-rooms in Bondi Myer are amazing! The cubicles are HUGE, and there is a tv playing a music channel, and there were testers of the Harajuku perfumes (all empty). I bought a cute new dress, red tartan button up t-shirt dress. I'm wearing it out for dinner tomorrow night for my birthday. After Myer, I went in search of the food court, thinking I would be inundated by choices. Alas, I was highly mistaken. For such a large shopping centre, the food court was tiny. But the food was good.

I then continued browsing in shops around Bondi Westfield, insearch for a cute pair of mary janes, that are a decent price. I found a few pairs, but didn't try any on. Maybe next time.

I have shit friends, but I made butterfly cakes

As said, my friends can be shitty. It pisses me off. One of my friends is going overseas for 6 months, maybe more, so I thought I would do something nice, and invite her over and bake her cupcakes, with two of other friends (at her request. One of the friends being my housemate). I made the cupcakes. They turned out great. I was ignored the entire night. Forget the fact that I organized this night a week or so ago, I was left out of everything. Mary and Ally made dinner. I was invited, I didn't get any. I had no say. Mary and Ally watched tv all night. Mel couldn't come over because of work, fair enough. I was ignored for television shows that had to be watched. Ally couldn't miss out on her tv shows, and she can't possibly watch them on the internet coz she doesn't know how, and won't accept my offering of my giving her sites to watch the show on.

I didn't barely got a word in with either of them. It's fucked. I hate it. Last time I do something nice for either of them again.  I didn't even get thanked for the cupcakes. I think it's downright rude.

My butterfly cakes tasted good, but next time I'll use a different cream.

Long Time, No See

I moved back to Wollongong about 5 weeks ago. There has been no internet connected... till yesterday. Saying that, the landlords are extremely slack, but the wife is slowly picking up on the game. I still hate the house, though. I think it is awful, and overpriced. For the size of the house, and where its located, and the lack of anything remotely new, I should be paying, at least, $40 less in rent a week. Or something like that. I want to move out. First, I need a job, and someone to live with. Then I can think about other things, such as furniture. Apparently I need to think about them now, according my friend, Ally, who I currently live with. If I were moving within the next few weeks (which I would love to, but I'm not), then I would be thinking about furniture. But I'm not, as I told her I have more important things to think about. 

I have a job interview on Wednesday for Myer. The interview is in Bondi, but I've applied for the Wollongong store, and I really want this job. The sooner I get a job, the sooner I get more money, the sooner I can move out (after I find someone to live with. Or I may just live by myself, I've been thinking about that option.)

It's my birthday on Thursday. I have no idea what I'm doing. I know I'm going into town and getting my free boost juice, and take some clothes to the Salvation Army, and take some books and cd's to the store that takes them. I might even put a dress on laybuy. Apart from that, I don't know what I'm doing. I'll probably talk to my mum about it tomorrow when I go visit her.

Speaking of birthdays, it was my cats 10th birthday last Tuesday. She got a slice of cake, some cat grass, and a new kitty litter box. She enjoyed her cake.
