Tuesday was the classic cassette night, to be honest i cant remember anything eventful happening.
wednesday i had an interview for a gym, didnt get a great vibe from it so i would be supprised if i heard
back from them.
Thursday was the bar crawl which finished up in Margeritas so me and Eddie rushed up there after work. It was pretty
mild compared to previous weeks. I ended up leaving with a girl called Carmel to find some decent music and ended up in Deshers Bar on High st. Ive always wanted to drink there and it was a complete let down.
Friday I was given the night off for Dribbles Stray leaving Do. It was an awesome night. We played pub golf. 9 holes of drinking where all but 1 was a hole in one for moi! we started at the camel where I had to do 10 naked press ups on the pool table after losing a bet. moving on to Brew then Providore in the hail stones!. Then QF Tavern, Margeritas, Father Teds where we were on the pool table singing and dancing. Epic. Then onto Globe. Missing out Cassette drunkenly. Then back to the camel where I had to do a striptease after losing another bet. Speaking of bets though... Gaz (the new travel desk guy) thought he could drink me under the table and lost, meaning that now he has to shave his head!
Saturday was work again. First Holly and Ally came in with a burger king for me then Dayna came in with one... brilliant!
Sunday was Emma Cliffords last night which resulted in an all day sunday session. Man Utd vs LFC which was awful then jumping in a taxi to parnell to watch the gaelic football.
Monday I had a trial at Anna's bar in Rydges hotel... very posh! It went well and I got the job after smashing a couple of glasses, creating a massive Sav Blanc spillage and fucking up on the till... oops! but a few after work drinks at the camel helped me calm down!
Tuesday was superheroes at Cassette where I went as mr.muscle! It was an average night which made me feel bad as it was deans birthday.
I left early as Louise came in and me being me and being a dick, it ruined my mood and i no longer felt comfortable there so went to bed.
I had the night off again on Wednesday as the bar crawl didnt come through Fusion. The bar crawl theme was Sports day so after much thinking
I blackened myself up with loads of fake tan and went as Usain Bolt. It was pretty average to be honest but Jessie (girl I met on pub golf) joined us in Be bar which made the night better.
On Thursday me, Cassy (little english girl thats been around the hostel for a few weeks now) went upto New World supermarket in Ponsonby then went for a coffee. We were there for ages and had pretty much told each other our life stories! She wanted to then go to K' Road so we made the trek up there in the pissing down rain. I hadnt been up there during the day but I no plan on having another night out up there sometime soon. We spent a good 3 hours around Auckland which was cool but I was treated to my drama coming back to haunt me... We walked into the hostel reception to see Sammy and Matty checking in and possibly the most awkward silence I've ever had. My mind was all over the place for the next few hours before work. The pub crawl was pretty dead but I needed to go out and fucked up after seeing them 2 check back in earlier in the day. Gaz (and pretty much everyone else in the hostel) had heard the story about the 3 of us so dragged me out after work and set me up with a girl from Milton Keynes called Charlotte.
Friday I woke up absolutely hanging from the night before but it was an industry party down at the camel bar so me and Gaz went out looking for our costume.
It was James Bond themed and neither me, gaz or mark had much money so just wore trousers, shoes, suspenders and a tie!
I ended up crashing at work but Charlotte came in to keep me company which was cool. After work me and her ended up watching Boy in the Tv Lounge while everyone else had gone out.
Saturday was Abbys show at NZ Fashion Week. She had 2 free tickets to give away and gave them to me. I didnt no who to take so just asked Charlotte if she was interested.
The show was boring (I'm a northern boy at a fashion show, what else was it going to be) but was proud of Abby and how she had done. After the show I had to catch up
on my sleep and crashed until 8pm when it was time to go down to the camel and say bye to Lachy before he moved jobs to Byron Bay in Ozzy.
Then it was work again. Holly and Ally didnt come into town this weekend so that was one BK down. but Dayna came in with one so I still had abit of a feed in work.
We arranged to meet up for lunch on Tuesday. Whether she remembers or not is a different matter though, alcohol and all that. After work I crashed on the internet for a little bit. Mark had come back from Lachys leaving do and starting chatting shit. He really has no idea about what to say and what not to say when he's drunk.
He started trying to talk to me about Louise and asking why im miserable when shes around but went onto say he saw her the other night or something like and saying
he thinks the both of us try and look happy when we were around each other but arnt. I tried to not think about this but this is me were talking about and thats impossible.
I text her trying to provoke a conversation about 'us' but that was just wishful thinking.
I bumped into Charlotte before and she said that we're all going to Danny Doolans tonight which will be pretty cool.
Ive had time on my hands to think today and I'm not sure if I've been spending time with Charlotte and texting Dayna and Jessie just to get over Louise or not.
I don't want to put myself into a hole I can't dig myself out of so I'm going to hold off abit until my head clears up.

Sort My Life Out Week 1
Wednesday I got up and decided to spend the day away from the Hostel to avoid the Louise situation. I went down to the gym to pay off gym membership and cancel it aswell as going up to IEP to use some of the internet. On the way back I popped into the camel and ended up having a few drinks and playing some pool with Patches and the rest of the Paddys down there. I had a fairly quiet night though, just watched a movie and went to bed.
Thursday I bumped into Louise up in the kitchen and mentioned the cock blocking on Tuesday but she said it was unintentional and didn't remember talking to me at all that night which to be honest I think is bollocks as we were down in the TV room for a good hour before going to bed and she was asking me questions about what time I left and who with that night anyway. But I'm just going to let it slip and move on. Later I went down to the Belgian Beer Cafe with Eddie, Perry, Rossy, Becky and her friend Fran for a pint pulling competition. I didn't enter but took the time to indulge on free beer and food all afternoon. Me and Eddie found out we were 3rd on the bar crawl meaning we would be in work later and could have a pint at the camel but we also wouldn't get out til later. I saw Kat down there and had a drink with her before leaving for work but we did agree to meet up afterwards in Cassette as I said I would be there about half 1. I ended up being in a foul mood in work as Louise was drinking in there and it was doing my head. I couldn't wait for the shift to end so I could go meet Kat in Cassette. I didn't get there till 2.15 though and she had left by that point so I only stayed for half an hour before leaving with Mark from reception to make sure he didn't make a fool of himself when he got back to the camel to wake Emma up!
Friday I got up kinda early for me and decided that I would sort out my life. I started by filling in some forms for a job application as function staff applied for a couple of jobs on Seek.co.nz. I then text my mates asking to give me some heads up on any work. Anna got back to me telling me to come into her bar to get an application form. I cooked my dinner then headed up to see Anna. Her boss was there and he told me to come back in on Monday to speak to him and bring my CV. Before I knew it, it was time for work. I was in a much improved mood in work and for the first time in 5 weeks was actually in a good mood in work. Holly and her friends had come in again but this time bearing gifts in the shape of Burger King for me. I was very very very happy about this!
Saturday was spent down at the camel again surprise surprise but they had the rugby on and I get free coke down there so its all good. I had seen Kat again as they were going to the match and she mentioned about going round for a Sunday roast the next day. That night in work was fairly decent. I started to get sharked on again which was pleasing and kept me in a good mood all night. Dayna and Kathryn (2 students that had come in the week before and then added me on facebook) came in again and I did some groundwork on that one.
Sunday I got up about 12 and went down the camel for the Roast. They hadn't even started cooking yet so I ended up going down to Countdown with them and then helping with the cooking when we got back. While everything was in the oven we watched paranormal activity. It was an okay film but the ending we saw was shite. It was funny just to see the girls shit themselves during it though. I hung around with the boys in their room for a bit before deciding to go out on the piss with them. It was fairly mild night, just the camel bar and then down to Danny Doolan's in the harbour before coming home blind drunk!
I woke up Monday to my alarm going off and realising I had a job interview and a chat at Anna's bar.Fuck. The interview was very short but I think it went well to be honest and so did the chat with Anna's boss. I am going to get a phone call off both. I have spent the rest of the day in bed watching films and job hunting online. I've already had a reply and got an interview on Wednesday!

Cockblock Tuesday
So yeah, I woke up Tuesday early as I had to go to my job interview on the North Shore. I had probably got myself 4 hours sleep but I think I aced the interview. I had a good hour to wait for my bus back and an hour journey on the bus. I used this time to think about the Louise situation. After a bit of thinking about what to do, I came to the conclusion that I wouldn't chase her as it would only get messy. Luckily it was a Tuesday which is Cassette's time of week to shine. Cassette happens to be a frequent sharking ground of mine so I decided I would go out hard on the sharking front. I think my bar tab I racked up came to about $100 which was a good amount as the drink I had bought to pre-drink ended up getting nailed by Eddie, resulting in him going home at 10.30 (extremely poor effort I do feel). It was the usual crowd but then Emma that used to live above me turned up with a few friends from her hostel. I was almost ready to give up on the sharking and go home but got chatting to one of Emma's friends called Kat. We spent most of the night chatting away and dancing together then Louise came in and immediately my mood had changed. It was wierd, I didn't really want to be there anymore. I stayed as I was having a good time with Kat but about half an hour later it was just me and Kat on the dance floor then I got pulled to one-side by Louise who started chatting away to me. I was looking at Kat as if to tell her I didn't want to be in the conversation I had found myself in. In the end Emma saw Kat was just standing there like a lemon and came to her aid, she also explained the situation and that I didn't want to be stood there with Louise in the first place. Eventually I got away and we carried on dancing away. Me, Emma, Kat and one of Emma's mates she had been kissing (James) left and came back to Fusion to sit off in the Library for a little while. I could see Kat's body language had changed since Louise had been chatting with me and I could see it going nowhere so I retired to bed. I couldn't sleep so I decided to see if anyone was down in the TV Lounge. Louise was down there with the girls but they left as I came in. Louise was then all huggy and suggestive with her body language and in the end I just thought, fuck this, my head can;t take it and went to bed.

Forte
Its been 2 weeks since I wrote in here and there is a great deal to write in (i cant remember for my life of me what we did last week except spending time in the TV room with Louise and going the comedy club on Monday but it was shit). Tuesday was spent in Cassette after going round to Adams flat for pre-drinks. I wasn't planning on getting smashed but I did get quite drunk, left relatively early after I had a text off Louise asking if I was still in cassette cos she had finished work (didn't want her seeing me drunk when she was sober, not that attractive).
Wednesday the bar crawl came through Fusion meaning me and eddie had to work but we dressed up in tight and bright to mark the occasion (tight and bright). We went out after work to join the crawl in Code but to be honest I only went to see Louise and left after a short while once I had realised I just wasn't drunk enough to enjoy the place.
We had to work again on Thursday but didn't go out after work as we were both knackered and just retired to bed.
Friday Me, Eddie, Louise from work and Emma ended up going to Forte until 8am in the morning and getting smashed! Out of the blue I also decided to do it all over again on the Saturday but ended up getting out of control drunk and having a depressive breakdown about David in the club and got back at 8am ended up ringing my dad and sister (I cant remember either conversation but I know I was crying my eyes out) then moving on to crying myself in Mandy's arm. Not my finest hour but I havnt exactly been having the best of times recently and it all came to a head after one stupid DJ played Angels in the middle of his set.
Sunday I almost missed a day after waking up at 6pm and spending all day in bed and not getting back to sleep until 6am!
I woke up today feeling slightly better and spent a couple of hours in the Library with Louise away from everyone (at the moment I just don't feel like being around people that much) I took this time to have a much needed chat with her about where we both stand. I'm thankful she was honest and came out saying she likes me but she doesn't know what she wants and doesn't want to lead me on. I feel a lot better now as it had been on my mind for a couple of weeks. It would have been nice for us to make a go of it but it wasn't meant to be so I'll go back to my sharking ways and wait for someone else to come along.
