It's not hard to realise that theres not alot to do in Sydney that doesnt involve spending money....even me typing this is costing me seeing as how i needed to re-top-up my card that i use to enter my pin on the home screen, for $2 a hour its reasonable but it all adds up...
Anyway, an update on the Blue Mountains situation, we were sheduled to go today but we later found out that we were meant to let the tour company know 72 hours in advance that we were defiantly going to be attending.....seeing as how were were probably either still flying or only just touching down that was a little hard to do thus they simply thought we weren't bothering with the tour and were laughing there little Ozzie heads off at the sum of money they'd acquired by doing nothing....
However, Helena asked at the reception in the hostel and the women there (who appeared to be alot more 'with it' than the bloke i spoke to yesterday) said she would ring the company to see if there was anything that could be done and, result, she managed to get us onto a tour that will pick us up from the hostel at 8.15 tomorrow morning - the only thing this effects is it puts us back a day on getting our tax file number and Ozzie bank account set up that will enable us to start properly looking for work
As its a 9 hour tour tomorrow i thought i'd take the opportunity to fill you in on the latest today as i'll probably be shattered and all tourist'ed' out, possibly with my photo finger still smouldering from all the the photos that will be taken....
So i've got some useful information on where to go to get my TFN and bank account set up and luckily enough its a building in the same street as the hostel were staying in, i've decided i probably will go with paying for a course that enables me to look for work selling and handling alcohol, the course is $85 but you've gotta spend money to make money plus the course will not only enable me to look for work in pubs/bars and clubs but also off licences and conviniant stores - i told you, any work possible!!
In the same booklet it gives you a couple of websites to check out that search for house sharing accomidation and other similar places that, once i've found sustanable and paid work i will look to move into along with helena.....
I hope to kick all this into motion on Saturday (friday to you Guys) and will hopefully be working beofre the following week is through (but from the sounds of things and speaking to a few of the other people at the hostel this is alot easier said than done, but fingers crossed)
Besides that, all there is to really do without spending money is....sleep....read...play cards...sleep....listen to music.....take in the rather attractive foreign girls....sleep....listen to music and, ummmmm sleep...
Oh and at least its dry...er today, its rained a little but i could at least venture outside in a t-shirt and not be in danger of taking out the guy across the street with my nipples...
