I can't believe I have been here 6 weeks already - has gone so bloody quickly, hope that those tears are beginning to dry up a little now!!

Well this week has been another cracker, Monday to Thursday consisted of Sandwich making and not a lot else, my boss was off as she was getting married (like that's any reason to take time off!) so i had to open up at 6am for a few days which was a killer, walking to the bus stop at 5:20 in the pitch black in this dodgy area i kept seeing my life flash before me (and my what a marvellous one it is!) but hey what doesn't kill you makes you stronger...

After work on Friday the need for alcohol kicked in so after a little afternoon snooze (before you say what a hard life you trying getting up at 4:45am and standing on your chuffing feet all day with only a 20 minute break!!!) went and met Zara and went out on the town, stumbled to the bus stop around midnight and got stuck with some wierdo talking to me, i don't know how i manage it, it's like flies round shit -oh no hang on a minute that means i'm calling myself shit, um bees round honey yer that's beter!!

Saturday morning and paracetamols came around before i knew it and we caught a bus to the train station. Stepping off the bus i got left a very drunken message on my phone from my mum and brother who had been out to the pub after my grandads funeral, was killing myself laughing at my mum attempting to speak (at your age mother really!) and made everyone listen to it.

So anyway Me, Alex, Zara, Rod and Sarah caught a train to the Blue Mountains which was amazing. The sun was blazing away but was quite chilly so was pleased to have taken a jumper with me. We went on the scenic railway and cable car and then went to Echo point where you get a really good view of the three sisters. We then decided to go for a little adventure and started going along a very hilly/rocky path, about 20 minutes in to the journey we decided to turn back as we all had flip flops on and was SO not a good idea!!

Saturday night was bloody marvellous, despite being absolutely knackered managed to get my arse into gear and was out the door at 11pm all ready to hit the town. Boys you will be pleased to hear that it was at this point i got my first rugby jibe in. Was on the bus going to meet everyone when a group of lads got on the bus and started chatting to me, they had been to watch rugby and were given it all the yer Australia are the best blah, blah. So Ceej pipes up "hmmmmm, now let me think, who was it that won the world cup again, oh yer that's it it was ENGLAND and who did they beat again...." they were SO not impressed, "if it wasn't for Wilkinson blah blah" yer like whatever, get over it boys - you lost!!

After a few warm up drinkies we headed to 'Home' Sydneys biggest (or one of) nightclub, was a really good night, drank lots, chatted lots and boogied lots and went off to get a taxi to my bed at about 5:30. Was the most bizarre thing as we were standing waiting for a taxi and there were all these people walking about - very confusing, as Alex pointed out it was like Pewsey on carnival night only it was sydney and nearly 6 o'clock on a sunday morning!! It wasn't till the next day that we realised that there had been an early morning service for Anzac day and that's why it had been so busy - thought maybe i had been on drugs without realising it!!! Finally woke up around 3pm on Sunday and felt like absolute poo so spent the rest of the day in my pjs watching tv.

Today has been a public holiday so went to Market city to have a wander round the shops -spent a grand total of about 40p how good am i ?!!

Well i hope that you are all ok, thanks for all the emails is great to hear from you all. Loads of love Ceej xxxxx
