Moving again!

Well...we got a new flat today and we've already taken possession so we move...right now. Crazy eh!!!

Concert review: Bon Jovi

My voice is a little rough today. But Bon Jovi is awesome!! Seriously, I was so tired today but it was totally worth it. I was a little concerned that the majority of the songs would be from the spanking new Lost Highway album, but I needn't have worried. They did some of the new songs but they also did a WHOLE lot of their back catalogue songs as well. And there aren't many bands with a back catalogue like Bon Jovi.

I think the highlights of the night had to be: Shot Through the Heart and Living on a Prayer. Also, Ritchie Sambora soloing I'll Be There For You was pure gold. I tried to record them on my cellphone but we were reasonably far back and it failed miserably. Was a little upset (but not very!) that they didn't do Always - my very favorite Bon Jovi song. But the rocking version of Living of a Prayer did make up for it quite a lot!

That and the two encores. The crowd loved it! (As did I) Especially when he appeared in the Crusaders jersey. It was a shame the whole thing had to end. We were in the stands and at the end everyone was up and dancing. They are pure talent!! Sambora had some ROCKING guitar solos.

Plus, look how good Bon Jovi looks for his age:

DAMN!!

One more for luck...haha

Currently: Flat hunting, hopefully our applications go through successfully.

Loving: Working in town.

Time moves on

I can't believe Heath Ledger is dead!!! Not that I know him or anything. It just seems a little unexpected and random. Like something out of the twilight zone.

I hope he didn't commit suicide, that would be WAY too sad. Especially for his little girl. You wouldn't want to grow up with that hanging over you. I can't imagine how his family and friends will be feeling right now...

So sad...

But I guess life goes one huh. New work is good. People are REALLY friendly and they are letting me take it slow which is great. (Especially since I am jet lagged!) I get ONE HOUR for work, which is as new to me as...something that is really new and shiny. I haven't had one hour lunches since school! Plus I am in the Square, so there is lots to do. I can sit in the sunshine, meet people for lunch or check out the Buskers Festival.

Incredible! I could get used to this...

Home sweet home

And 10 hours later I'm in yet another country! This one is a least familiar. Haha. Slept for approx four hours on the plane - which helped the flight go quickly. Also watched The Nanny Diaries which I have wanted to see for awhile.

Didn't stop me from crashing for another four-ish hours when I finally managed to get home though!

We left from the uber-new Terminal 3 in Singapore. Very fancy. Only opened a week and a half ago. We were also 16kgs overweight. Believe me?

Our bags!! (Note the laptop bag in the left corner as well)

It was only a complete miracle that the guy let us on board without having to pay any extra. They allocate an extra 5kg per person but we still had 6kg total that was too much! Crazy eh!!! But he let us on - was pretty nerve wracking though!

Anyway, excessive baggage aside the flight was pretty standard. Better than standard when you consider Air Asia - which is what our last two flights were. But you get what you pay for I guess.

Is good to be home. Now the year REALLY starts. Tomorrow I need to get a WOF for my car, and set up a new mobile plan on Vodafone. Will hopefully meet Jennifer at some time as well to congratulate her on the impending nuptials. (YAY - nuptials!) Work starts on Wednesday and I'm pretty sure I have a hen's night this weekend. Bon Jovi concert on Sunday!!! YAY!!! Also must try to meet up with Mel and Loui somewhere in there. Jem is back on Saturday and we really also need to find a house to live in...fun fun.

Meanwhile, my room feels like it's full of so much crap and I want to clean it but everything is in boxes. Can't wait to find a new flat!
