Jetsetting!
I’m backkk.
I got back from Bali yesterday. It was an awesome trip. It was very hot, humid and 30 every day and it didn’t rain once. Spent a lot of time in the pool drinking cocktails from the pool bar. The wedding was really nice, it was very quick, it wouldn’t be where I would’ve had it, the beach wasn’t private so people were watching and we had to go past locals pestering us to buy sunglasses to get onto the beach.
I also found out on the first night that Taylor had brought a ring with him and was finally going to propose to Emma once the wedding was over. He was really cute, we were bouncing ideas on how he could do it, he came up with the idea that he would do it while they were snorkelling on our reef tour. I thought it was great, everyone tends to do it like at restaurants etc so it would be a good story to tell people. He went out and bought her a wooden ring as a temp so he wouldn’t have to take the real one into the ocean, which was lucky cause it’s too big for her so she’s been wearing the wooden one ever since 🙂 He took her out snorkelling and all I heard was ARE YOU SERIOUS?! I swam over to Jim (my roommate there and Taylors best mate who’d been holding the ring) and told him that Taylor had done it. I went over and almost drowned her hugging her. I’d already organised for there to be champagne so I went and got that to come out, Ems swam back in and told everyone else that she was engaged. The champs came out and I think it got real for her finally and she started bawling her eyes out, cue me and her sister crying too. It was a really good day and she was so happy. The only downside is that she had to try and get a hold of her mum and sister to tell them and she wasn’t allowed to put it on facebook until they’d got back and told Taylors parents so Emma was almost bursting to tell people lol. We skyped Jade and she balled her eyes out, it was cute.
I didn’t get Bali belly which I was happy about, I actually thought it was going to be a lot more dodgier than it was. It was alarming that everywhere you went they checked the cars and sometimes you for bombs.
It’s a very exhausting place to be. It was so hot and people tried to sell you stuff wherever you go, down the street, on the beach, the pubs, restaurants, even walking somewhere deserted the taxis always honk at you to let you know they’re free. I loved how cheap everything was, but if it had’ve been Australia where I wasn’t hassled or didn’t have to haggle the already cheap price I would have bought triple. I suck at haggling, it annoys me, if I want something I just wanna buy it dude stop arguing over the price.
We found a wholesaler for the bags and wallets from a taxi driver who took us there. I bought 8 handbags and two wallets there… Oops. It was just so easy knowing I was getting them for the right price and wouldn’t have to bargain with them. It was in a garage down the dodgiest street you’ve ever seen in the middle of all these local houses, we thought he was taking us somewhere to stab us and take our money or something but it was legit!
The way home was horrible. Our flight was at midnight, it was a 6 hour flight but an added 2 hours for the time difference and the fact that I can’t sleep on planes meant I had a very long two days! It was raining here when I got back.. Of coarse it was.
I got back to find a baby shower invite from Julie. This annoys me greatly, to the point I want to just msg her and tell her she’s a shit person. The last I’d heard from her I’d put a status up on FB hinting at her, saying I love all the people in my life and those who weren’t in it for the long haul could fuck off basically, she retaliated by posting that she was better off without some people. So I resisted turning up at her house and punching her lights out and just ignored her. She did me a while too but then started popping back up onto facebook randomly liking my status’, blatantly ignoring the fact that I would ignore her every time. WHY WOULD YOU INVITE SOMEONE TO YOUR BABY SHOWERING WHO IS CLEARLY IGNORING YOU?! I’ll tell you why, because she gets all the attention. I imagine she invited douchebag as well, and fucking Will Casey (the ex). Count me out. I’m contemplating not even RSVPing, it was meant to be by today so I might play the Bali card, mum must’ve put it away and I didn’t see it. God she annoys me. She’s having it at our town hall.. what the fuck? Why? When your house has a huge lounge room, and alternatively your mum lives in a mansion. I bet she invited everyone she knows just so they can all droll over her belly, you know how pregnant mums hate their bellys being invaded by hands all the time? Nup she’d love it, good thing cause she’s huge.
Okay getting a bit bitchy there.
Work on Monday, going to suck big time. The iPhone 5 is finally out, after 2 years of people telling me they’re not upgrading because they’re waiting for this dumb phone to come out, now it has and the Galaxy S III still has more features I want to ring every damn one of them up and be like SUCKED IN I FUCKING TOLD YOU SO.
Plus, the last week I was in Sydney I got drunk with douchebag and one of our team leaders, I got into a huge drunken fight with the TL and ended up balling my eyes out in the bathroom to douchebag (it was really awkward, and hell no we’re not friends/speaking at all so don’t ask). So that’ll be brought up when I come back. I’m going into a senior position when I come back, I think I want to start looking towards becoming a team leader… Maybe.. I just don’t know yet. I can’t stay on the phones forever though.
Also now I’m back I can start learning to take Pump classes at the gym which is exciting. I might wait a week or two before I contact Jason though, I did cardio this morning and my god I hate how fast you lose fitness, I can only imagine after resistance in the morning, I doubt I’ll be able to walk for the next 3 days.
I’m about to work out some groceries for the week, eating clean, I have so much crap in my body from this holiday I want to be reallllly good this week and the key to that is planning so I always have food there rather than getting a chocolate bar instead.
Okay that’s it for now. I do have pics but I just can’t be bothered right now. I did a spring clean of my wardrobe, mum went through it and took out about half for herself but there’s still two full garbage bags. And I still have no closet space!
Time for a green tea and a clean shopping list!!
This entry made me laugh 🙂 Although, I still think iPhones are better than Samsung, but each to their own. Totally agree with you on haggling. I suck at it too. I can’t do it very well, and even when I get a discount I still feel like I’m getting ripped off.
