My mind is all over the place
So, Marie took the room. I have set up appointments to view houses and saw two on Sunday but they weren't any good. I'm looking for a great room, a great location, AND a great set of house mates. It has to be the trifecter. I got that word off Bones. It isn't recognised on here as a word though. Ahh well. Saturday was another Roller Derby match and this time it was awesome! So much faster and entertaining. Usually I'm not good with meeting someone's friends but Jess' were nice and we had some good chats. I usually feel like I should have stayed home because I'm not so good around people socially. Sigh. That's just me. Monday we started the new unit Heritage Interpretation and I am loving it! The people have changed in the class but some of them are the same. At least Dana and Vicky are still with me. We went on a field trip on Tuesday to the Botanical Gardens for an official Aboriginal welcome, to ACCA for a tour of the exhibition and to the Shrine of Remembrance. It was so beautiful there and I loved the Gardens. I will be back soon. Today I need to finish my first assignment. I have most of it done but I might change a few things, plus it's 100 words to much but that might be alright. My mind is all over the place. I hate not having constant access to the internet at home where I can update regularly. Oh, Sunday was a wonderful day. I was smiling down the street. I met George's cousin Cate at 1030 at Babka in Brunswick St and we had a bit of a snack and a drink. She is so lovely. We went for a wander around the street and went into some shops and in one of them I bought 3 amazing skirts! I am so stoked. Two tartan and one like a very long netball skirt with the pleats. We went to some other shops and I found some cute birds like the ones dad started making out of balsa wood so I might get him some of those for his birthday for some inspiration. Then on my way back over to Nicholson St where I catch the tram to Kirsten's I stumbled upon the Rose St Market! It was so lovely. I bought some cards with cute prints on them. Yesterday wasn't so great. I filled a dam with my tears. I just wanted to go home to a place where I have succeeded. I still don't have a house here and it's bothering me. I have an appointment for tonight, one for Monday, and hopefully another in the works. I just want a room to settle into. I want to feel like I can send my belongings instead of feeling like it isn't my place too. Sigh. It'll all work out in time. I need to go on a job hunt. I will do that soon. Today I'll have a look at my resume and make a few according to which job I'm after. Bookshop jobs would be the best. I'll try and write cover letters too. I also have to study more. Eek! I'm glad there's no pressure to read the unit readers but they have valuable information in them so it's worth it if we do. I'll do what I can.
