Bed Part Two

The bed stayed intact throughout the night. I looks like I’m not going to be able to get to Ikea until Thursday so hopefully the bed will last that long. In Perth, shops close at 5 most days but Thursday is an exception and its called “late night shopping”. On Thursday some stores remain open until 7:00 or in some rare instances until 7:30. It’s really annoying because my classes run 9-5 Monday to Friday most weeks.

I spent all day studying. Danielle and I took a short walk to get some bread at “Cobs”. Except its actually called “Bakers Delight” here but it’s the same company as Cobs – founded in Australia believe it or not. A loaf of country grain bread costs me $3.00 AUD. Is it more than that in Canada? I don't remember.

My medchem exam is this Wednesday and I still have lots to look at by then. Its grueling really.

The fact that you can't remember the prices on certain things is great! Shows you're adapting to your new homeland. I say this knowing it won't make you that thrilled...but there is a grain of truth to it.
Happy pre-birthday, bro. You're not forgotten.

PS: Grain bread here costs about $3. Depends if you have your club card with you or not...hehe.

g'day spencer, it's craig.
what are you doing this tuesday night? you wanna watch a dvd? i bought the Bourne Identity yesterday. i'm sure you know it, it's the pre-prequel for the latest one in the cinemas and i think it's awesome.
i also invited Angie over to watch it, coz she's never seen it.
i hope we can somehow hook the computer up to the TV to watch it in the loungeroom... it should be possible. or i could at least act most of it out. mostly in mime, because i can't really do a good american accent, but i do awesome fight scenes in slow motion.
oh by the way, i don't have your mobile number or email, so i'll have to get it off you sometime.
cheers!
