night watch

*yawn*
Am tired after two night shifts in a row... so glad I finish work at the normal time today!
We've started an Evening Class here at school, which means one of the admin staff has to stay back until 9pm every weekday.. But the good thing is we get to start late too...
Which is REALLY nice... I can wake up without my alarm, go to the gym... clean the house a little.. I even baked a cake on Tuesday! Berry Sour Cream cake... which was eaten up in a record 24 hours! ;) Definitely a keeper...
I even got to hang out with Jessica a little, which was good too... cause I don't get to see her much during the week, with her schedule and mine being so different. (Jessica is my flatmate).

Good news is that Mateus is finishing up at the bar on Saturday night... for now. He has decided, and quite rightly so, that he is working too much, and its not good for him. He's been in and out of having a cold now for 2 months straight! So, he has asked to finish at the bar from Saturday. They've been really good to him, but working as he is during the days during the week, and then going to the bar for 3 or 4 nights does not make things easy. So, we will finally be able to spend some time together on weekends... And we will finally be able to go on those trips we had hoped we would be able to do with the van! HURRAH! Those are sorely needed... am getting very tired of work and Brisbane at the moment.

I've even gotten back into that TESOL course I started so long ago! I've given myself a deadline to complete it by September, when Pam will leave the school for Japan. :( Not very good news... its going to be really hard to work here without her... the crew is splitting up!

Hmm.. not good... But I've been focusing on the good things... like Mateus finishing at the bar... :) And OH! Check out this gorgeous clip I found on youtube last night while trying to cure my boredom...



Cute huh?
