So.....
Ok I know I havn't posted in ages! SORRY!!
Well were to start....hmm
So I got a job and it is going great! I really enjoy working there, the girls I work with are great! And the boss is cool! He keeps trying to convince me to stay in Canada. (Don't worry Justin I am coming home to you don't stress!) hehe.
I went bowling with two girls from work and one of there boyfriends and his roommate. Ok now it wasn't what I expected! It was 5 pin bowling with little balls! hehe It was so much fun though!
What else......oh yeah my Birthday!
Well I spent the day babysitting Rebecca, she is sooo adorable! Then that night Leigh, Ange and I went to Wade and Joannas for Tea (dinner, supper whatever! hehe)
I wasn't expecting what I saw when we walked in...Jo and her daughter Sophia (so cute) decorated their place with pink and white balloons and streamers! And other party things like hats ect were pink also! They had a birthday girl chair at the head of the table for me. It was the princess chair and they had a tiara for me coz like I'm a Princess!!! hehe
Wade made a fabulous Greek meal soooooo good!!!! A chicken pie with a salad and fried potato. Now for anyone who hasn't had or heard of Wades cooking...he is the better than any restaurant he is amazing! And for dessert...MUD CAKE! Canada doesn't have mud cake so Jo googled it and got the recipe off the Australian Cadbury Website...it was soooo good! With heart candy bits for decoration, also pink whipped cream and berry sauce! MMMMMM
Then Leigh, Ange and I went to a bar on Granville Island, which had live music. One guy that performed dedicated a song to me for my bday and changed the lyrics in the song to say 'Happy birthday dear Sarah!' He was an African singer, he was really good!
Ok then to add to the celebrations on that Saturday night Ariana took me to a Latin Dancing Club. One of her friends from work came too. At the beginning of the night they had free dance lessons! It was so much fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My camera is playing up so I can't put any photos up but I will get around to putting some on so people can remember what I look like! (justin!) hehe
Missing everyone so much!!!!!!!
It has been tough being away but I have learnt, worked out and experienced so much!
Wish you could all be here with me! Missing everyone so much!
Oh and one thing I have had to get used to is people looking at me with blank faces when I say certain things...like working at a clothing store, jumpers they call sweaters. Chewing gum I call chewy and here its gum. If I'm talking about my guy friends back home I say mates...They don't use that word unless talking about animals.....! Oh and here you NEVER say your going to the toilet, its bathroom or washroom. Thongs, its flip flops here or flips. And so so so many more! It always sounds funny to me when I use their terms for things, I think I just sound silly! I expecially sound funny saying sweater instead of jumper or flip flops instead of thongs! Haha so I don't care people can look at me funny or whatever I like my Aussie terms! hehe
Now you all have to update your blogs! I wanna know whats going on back home!
Love you all so much and missing everyone like crazy!!!!! xoxoxoxox

Busy Busy Busy
Oh my gosh HUGE day!
At 11am i got a phone call for an interview at Exposure (surf clothes store for chicks), he wanted me there at 11:30 so i rolled out of bed and practically ran there.
The interview was going good talked heaps but it seemed like he wasn't going to give me the job because he wanted someone a bit more permanent but then all of a sudden he said 'you know what Sarah i'm going to hire you' i got a job!!!!
He went to get me some forms but then came back and told me that he was short today so could I start today!!! so i worked from 12-9!!! I GOT A JOB!!!!! its an awesome store i love it!!!
It's good to get out of the house and meet new people while working in a cool clothes store.
One problem I think it might end up being bad for me because the clothes are really nice!!!
Oh speaking about clothes, my clothes from Australia came today so going to pick them up from the post office tomorrow. About time!!!
