Working Hard!

Well I have had quite the last 10 days since I last wrote. Finally finished the 5 day street promotion job I had then jumped right into working for the Ministry of Transport. It has been quite an interesting job! Usually I'm not a writing type of person but I'm forced to be with this job! People write to the Minister of Transport about questions and concerns with the transport system and I have to write back to them on behalf of the Minister of Transport or the Parliamentary Secretary! It's kinda cool! Here they have only 35 hour work weeks and since I'm working for the Government I don't have to take a 1hr lunch break so I can work 830 - 4 and be outta there!

I also joined a gym here! There's only so much holiday eating you can do before things start to change lol It's an amazing gym. You can take unlimited yoga, dance, cardio classes and they have choreographers from So You Think You Can Dance Australia which is great! All of their running/cycling equipment have tv screens on them which doesn't make it so boring to exercise! lol

Still can't believe I only have 5 more weeks here in Sydney and then I travel up the Coast for 3 weeks and then head over to Bali!

Yesterday was Australia Day and everyone got dressed up in Australia gear and went over to a friend's place for a FEW drinks of course. It was kinda cool because on the big radio station here they do a countdown of the top 100 or so songs of the year on Australia Day. Kind of what we do back home on New Year's!

Hope everyone is doing well back home and I will update you again soon! I keep hearing I need to go see Slumdog Millionaire so probably going to do that this week!

Ciao for now.
