STOMP!

Both Evy and I had Friday night off!!! WOOHOO! Had a bit of trouble coming up with something to do. This normally wouldn’t be such a big issue if we were still in the apartment, cuz we’d be able to chill out on the couch at the apartment. Unfortunately for us, we’ve moved back to […]

Out of Commission

Tuesday night I suffered food poisoning and got Andrea to take me to the hospital after 5 hours of trying to cope with it on my own. Lucky for me, the ER wasn’t busy and I got into a trolley(bed on wheels) right away and a doctor saw me within an hour. Discharged at 3am. […]

Weekend Tourist

Eveline and I spent Sunday morning at the Art Gallery of Western Australia. Current exhibitions included Year 12 students that were very talented and impressive. Many were Japanese exchange/international students and all the art was gorgeous. We only spent about an hour in the gallery, the permanent collection having not been something that Eveline and […]

Working Hard

I’ve been working around 50 hours a week at two jobs. 40hrs at the office job and then every weekend at the Subi. It’s actually kinda fun working at the restaurant. It’s a good change of pace, although that was not my impression after my first Saturday night closing shift. The first Saturday night shift […]
