Okay the past few weeks (month maybe, I'm not sure) has been so hectic and I havn't had enough time to sit down and write in the blog.
I've kept a few notes in my phone of things to write about in here so here goes;
Council House - this refers to when me and Gaz where flat hunting and found a pretty sweet one after I'd 3rd viewing. It looks like a right dodgy council estate from the outside but inside its kinda cool. Living room, kitchen, balcony, 2 double bed rooms (one with ensuite) and a bathroom with a washer and dryer in.
Karina - haha erm this refers a certain night out where my memory completely fades. It was Julie's birthday so we all went out on the pub crawl and I ended up
taking home a friend of hers. I think in an act of karma about my sleezyness, the alcohol affected me and let's just say she left disappointed haha.
Metallica - Fuck, I have found new hatred for Metallica! They were playing in Auckland and for a few days we were over run with Miserable metal heads dressed in black.
They ruined both Nomads hostels by being complete fuck wits and punching holes in walls and pulling off water basins resulting in 2 floors getting flooded. Literally
no need at all! I also couldn't go and have a quiet drink in the camel 'cos it was over run with these idiots and therefore heavy metal music was played 24 hours in the camel.
Cassette - now this pops up several times so I'm just going to try and remember significant moments from the past few times there. Met some cool people there and took a few home (sleeze bag, i no) the bar tab is really not good for me... get really drunk and instead of having a quiet drink with the boys, I end up looking to pull.
Pimps n Hoes - Wednesday night bar crawl. You guessed the theme. Me and Ed from Frienz spent all Wednesday day trying to get our costume... him being my pimp and me being his ho.
He went for the purple austin powers look and I went for the dirty-farmer-tractor-batch look. just look at the pictures. From what I remember it was a pretty cool crawl. With some good
stories coming out. e.g Luke going back to a students halls only to wake up and realise she was twice his size and he couldnt get out the building... dressed in girls clothes.
Frenzi - god knows, its so long ago ive got no idea what this means. I'm going to hazard a guess at a crazy night
Lunch with Kat - I bumped into Katrina as she came back from the bay of islands and had a few hours to kill so we went down to the pier and had some lunch in the sun. It
was really cool to see her again and she assures me she's back out here in February. Emma Clifford is going to get so much stick when I see her as I was the last person to see Kat before she left!
Last Shift - I had my last shift at Fusion as I was due to move into the apartment with Gaz and start my job at Massey University on the north shore working in the gym.
Rugby - Me, Adam, Natalie (his girlfriend) and Mike their friend from back home scored free tickets to go watch Auckland play Otago. It was fucking freezing, I was ridiculously shattered but free tickets are a plus in my book anyday!
Hot tub - when I got back I jumped in the hot tub with Luke, Lucy and Carmel. Not much to shout about, not sure why thats in here.
Parnell - Becky was on the job hunt hard. We went up to Parnell rd to try and find her a job. Had a coffee in esquires and just sat there chatting for hours with Rossy and Nina.
When we left we walked back to the CBD and to the Viaduct harbour to see if there was anything there going. She scored a trial at degree and celebrate we went to the waterfront to surprise Franzi and have a drink there.
Camel - I got offered a trial by Menz for the Tuesday (only 3 days after I left Fusion) this was to be the start an absolute hectic time.
Move In - Me and Gaz moved into the apartment on the Thursday but I had very little time to move everything in as I had to be at the gym to start my first shift
on Friday morning.
Gym - As i said my first shift. 2 hours of it was spent on the phone to immigration and HR coming to an agreement on my contract.
Function - I had my first job with Function Staff working at a V.V.I.P wedding at the Wharf. The venue is amazing and costs $25,000 to hire out. It comes right out into the water and has the harbour and the cbd as its back drop.
Food on the deck - Me and gaz had a meal in the sun out on our balcony soaking up the sun to celebrate moving in. Our view is just sick. We get a 180 degree view from
the harbour to K' rd looking out to Ponsonby.
We've had a few people round to visit the apartment and have gone through so much booze in that time! Abby came round and then we had one of gaz's mates from Queenstown stay over for a few days.
Halloween - This night evades me completely. I remember being in the flat with gaz, lucy, charlotte, dave, Lindsay and carmel. Me and gaz were chugging back our beers and painting each other blue so we could go as smurfs. Bad idea. Clothes and the apartment covered in blue paint now. I spent the night at the camel to start with as it was rocking!
I remember pulling trashys mate again and thats about it really. I think I went to margeritas and Code but I cant be too sure. I forgot I had to get up at 7am in the morning to go work in the gym... I was still covered in blue :/
Initiation - not much of an initiation as I've been doing it time and time again anyway and continue to do it. But I had to do a strip tease on top of the pool table infront of everyone which is now on youtube.
Apart from that I've just been working solidly (clocked close to 50 hours a week) the weekend is a killer as im working friday night til about 3. up at 7am to go the gym til 1,work at 4 til close (so around 4am) then up at 7am again for the gym til 1 then back in the bar 4pm til close.
I love working in the bar as now I'm a duty manager and it's good for picking up girls (Canada's been kind to me) and let's just leave it at that.
I'm in 2 minds at the moment as to whether to look for a girlfriend or continue being sleeze. It is fun and I've met some great people but for example there's been a Candanian girl called Michelle that I've been spending time with and hooking up with for the past few days which has been so much fun and I quite like her and she's so easy to talk to (we stayed up all night last night just talking) but she leave's tomorrow which is gutting. I know if I have a girlfriend I won't have this problem but will I just get bored? Fuck knows.
Right, well I think that's almost everything (there'll be loads i've forgot as its been so long) and now I'm off to Victoria Park to play some touch with the hostel.
