I didn't spend 2k on a plane ticket to the southern hemisphere to watch the rain, but unfortunately today it seems like I did. And according to the forecast tomorrow won't be very different. It is torrential outside right now!!! I have yet to get a job. I'm allergic to the idea of it. Yuck, work. But I am becoming worried about the lack of budgeting I've been doing and at least when I start getting a pay cheque I can put that concern to the back of my mind. I'm getting annoyed with myself now that I haven't yet done any of the touristy stuff. After all I am a tourist. I haven't even gone swimming yet!!! That's so embarrassing!!! In fact I promise now to shake off the hangover that I know I'll have tomorrow, wriggle into my wetsuit which I dragged across the world and run down the street into the pacific. I've applied for a couple of sailing jobs here but nothing has come from them yet. I really have found it difficult to get an instructing job here, or any job on the water, tours and day sails for example. Despite my experience on the water and teaching I just can't get a look in. In my experience it's a lot easier to get coaching work back home. I've said it before and I'll say it again, I hate job searching!
I'm being ambitious and planning on waking up at 7.30 am tomorrow morning(Sunday) to watch the England v France match. If France insist on knocking every other deserving country out of the tournament (and other continental competitions) then the least they can do is take out England. I'm going to leave it there for now. When I post next time I'll fill you in on how the water was, what occupation has called to me and what is the best touristy thing to do in Northland. Bye for now, Steph.
