When I got back to the house on Monday night, some of the housemantes told me about a Spanish fiesta that was happening over the weekend and mentioned that tonight was the last night. Obviously, I wanted to go so English Mike, Eveline and I went to Darling harbour to check it out. The small […]
Mungo Brush campsite
by Bertha on 04. Oct, 2005 in Australia 2005
woke up at 5am as every sigle person in the other campsites bugged out! Seemed quite strange to me to be awake that early just to pack up and go. Us on the other hand stayed until 11am. Lesuirely brekkie of Nutella and banana. Stopped off at another beach as we left the national park. […]

My weekend with kathryn and Nicole at Myall Lakes Nat’l park was awesome. Started out a little sketchy with us not being able to leave until quite late and arriving at 8pm to find all the camping stalls taken. So we set up our tent in a picnic zone at Whte Tree Bay and got […]
Journalling
by Bertha on 30. Sep, 2005 in Australia 2005
I have been so lazy in my journalling. I update the blog more regularly than my journal and when I do that I am not in the mood to write again in my book. I used to put bullet points of my day when I wrote a blog entry but I’ve not touched my journal […]

From surfer girl to greyhound girl
by Bertha on 29. Sep, 2005 in Australia 2005

Gilmore Girls
by Bertha on 29. Sep, 2005 in Australia 2005
BTW, I had someone in the house download the first 2 episodes of season 6 so I could watch them and it was FANTASTIC! Mona, Evelyn and I watched them back to back and I didn’t get to bed until 1am!
Bondi to Coogee Walk

Yesterday I worked the morning at UTS, they asked me to come back to do proofreading/editing corrections to their corsebooks. I told them I would like the afternoon off and they didn’t have a problem with it at all. Mona was leaving on Thursday morning and we had yet to do that gorgeous seaside walk […]
Canberra Picture

This is us on the roof of the Parliment building. You should have seen the look of the security guard’s face when we asked her to wait until we posed properly. I hope to get the egyptian pose and the Charlie’s angel’s pose from the other girls sometime. That morning Mike tried to join us […]
CAN-berr-ah Day Trip
by Bertha on 23. Sep, 2005 in Australia 2005
I’ve made plans to go for a day trip with one of my flatmates, Ursula, and Mona. Indecisive English Mike has not committed to coming just in case something better comes up or if he’s hung over. I’m done working at UTS Insearch and today worked scanning documents back at my placement agency. I have […]
