Today has also been a good day. I'm a little tipsy now as I just swung by Amy's work on the South Bank and had a pint of 5 Seeds cider. I met up with Amy at 1 today and we went to lunch next to the Federation Square bridge. She had a lamb bratwurst and I had some chips and we had 3 half pints of Bulmers cider each. We had a great catch up and I loved it. Seeing her work and her at work was amazing! It's all so fast. Much faster than at thebeach. She was just on drinks, making the orders and putting them on the bar with the dockets to be taken out by the waitors/waitresses. It was great. I like their system. It's not as busy at thebeach to implement this system but I admired it.
After Amy and I talked for 2.5 hours, I did some shopping. I bought a skirt from Dangerfield then went to Melbourne Central shopping centre and bought some stationary supplies. I got a stack of cards that you write down a task you want to achieve, then you tick it once it's done and get a reward you specified for it. I also got myself and Jodie [from thebeach work] this book on how to change your life in little steps. It's all about making the best of things, going out for cute outings like to watch the sunset, and enjoying life. I hope she likes it. I also got this book labled 365. It's red and has x's all around the edge of the front cover and it has on each page a different number starting from 1 going through to 365 and you can put anything you want in it. One of the suggestions is to doccument the first year of your baby's life. Another is to use it as a journal for a years task. I want to do something great in it. Maybe something to do with fitness and overall happiness and not being lazy. I haven't quite worked the details out yet but it'll be great.
Earlier this morning I went to the Carlton Gardens and to the museum there. I loved seeing the blue whale skeleton and how they came about acquiring it and putting it on exhibition. It was a great story. I am really not into Melbourne. It would only be great because I'd get to see Amy a lot more and go to lunch like we did today but I don't like the city itself. I would much prefer Sydney and have a fresh start there. It's much cleaner feeling. I want it to be my own thing and it will. It'll happen.
Tonight I have to pack my bag and get ready to make a quiet exit in the morning as to not wake my room mates. I have to be at the airport for around 730am so if I'm at the Sky Bus by 7am just in case then I should be fine. That means getting up at 6am to shower and pack then walk or train it to Southern Cross Station. It's not too far to walk but I don't want to stress about it.
Both Amy and my sister aren't sure about my tattoo idea, the barcode part of it anyway. It is up to me though, as Amy mentioned, but I like it. I like that it's not just my surname. I still have time to think about it and plenty of time to make an appointment. There's no rush.
I'm really tired now. Drinking does that to me. I think I got a little sunburnt on my face, definitely on my scalp, so I'll have an early night. I have 35 minutes left on here so once I play some games I might go get some McDonalds for dinner. I still have one or two mini mud cake cupcakes to finish off and some crisps but I might leave them for the girls to eat. It was silly to buy them. I'm looking forward to going to bed early. I'm not sure I'll get anything for dinner. I don't know if I need it. I might just have a mud cupcake and go to bed. Maybe I could just get a McChicken burger from McDonalds. Something light. Something to ponder for the next 20 minutes.
