The Pad

So things have finally started to settle down around here and we are done moving about. Ari came back to Sydney and we spent two nights hanging out with him and then he left back for the U S and A. We went to see Bruno, which was highly praised for shock value, but other than that we were slightly disapointed. Still funny, but no Ali G show bruno.

We finally got a place! We found this sweet little apartment tucked away on a street down from the beach for the same price as all the other places we looked, which is awesome!!! The only bad part is that every place we found, including this one was unfurnished :( So we spent our first night of ground sleeping last night, but hopefully the craigslist will grace us with more free mattresses and furniture soon.

The neighborhood we live in reminds me of a very toned down California. The people still have the rich, cali style, but they seem to have less money or maybe just want to flaunt it less. We were talking about how we kind of looked like homeless people beacause we were walking around in hoodies and jeans, while everyone else we saw was dressed a little more lavishly. Then I bought a bottle of beer and was drinking it from the bag and we laughed about how our homeless appeal had increased. On our walk home we saw that a bed and mattress had been set on the sidewalk to be thrown away and as we picked it up we made the final decision that although we have a sweet apartment, we are homeless. (Joke). We didn't take the mattress though because then we would be a little too homeless for our own good. Wish us luck in the craigslist gods granting us mattresses by the weekend.
