I'm a waitress

Well I started a job today. i'm officially a waitress. Who needs experience? Haha. So I go in today for a "work trial." The owner tells some guy to show me around the place. He is Canadian and studying here. So he shows me where you get the food and the drinks and bring it to the tables. You don't have your own tables you just go get the food when the chef rings the bell. After about 10 minutes of being shown around the cafe and 2 minutes of reading over the menu, they give me a writing pad and an apron and send me on my way! I had no idea what the hell I was doing. Guess I faked it pretty well though because I got hired. I dropped a few forks and mis wrote a few orders, but no orders got screwed up and they just asked me what I meant. Things went pretty well I guess. So now I'm a waitress. Funny...
Anyways, so today we went down the coast to some beaches. THey are soooo beautiful over here. Water is crystal clear. We saw giant lizards by the beach. Got hit on by some old man that wanted to go to lunch with us. haha. We had some ice cream. I bought a really cute sweatshirt that says Australia and has the cities written on it. Brewster took us, she is great. Does so much for us.
More funny sayings mom...Stuffed up means made a mistake. They call a car trunk a boot. hmm I had a few more but I can never remember. I'll remember. Brewster the lady that helps us so much had a python in her yard last night. 5ft long. I said wow, so that's not just Australians trying to scare Americans. There have been a few giant bugs in the house. That is taking some time to get used to. Luckily Meribeth is brave enough to kill them.
Oh ya we went to a chocolate factory today, but it was actually just a little stop over here that you can buy things. I was a little disappointed...oh well. White Chocolate is pretty popular over here so that's exciting. We took a picture with a whole rugby team today. We made their day. haha, they were so excited to take a picture, more came running up behind them to be in the picture. So funny. We're having a great time here. once we got over the fact that we are going to have a real life here and there isn't always going to be something great and exciting, adn we have to get jobs, we are doing better. The softball people are just great and we love going to play. Can't wait for the game tomorrow!
Sunday Meribeth and I are going hiking. We found Brisbane forest park with lots of trails, so that will be fun. I'm going to wear my new Byron Bay hat! Can't wait. Should be some exciting trails. Then Monday is my birthday, so we'll probably go to dinner or something, not sure. Anyways, we're doing great. Julie is keeping me posted with all the sad depressing things going on...Thanks Julie! SO if anyone has some good things to write about feel free. Hope everyone gets better or stays healthy. I hope grandpa is doing well. Let him know how things are going and tell him I love him!! I'm goiong to jump in the shower because I smell like food. Internet has been acting up so I might not be on for a few days. I'm also coaching for their U16 team so that should be fun. Okay lov eyou all. Goodbye!
Tomorrow our game is at 10 am. I'm pitching, so this should be interesting.
