Living The Dream

Just a quick post to keep you up to date with what I'm up to.  I have been on the Gold Coast now for three and a half months.  I can't say that it has been easy but everyone says the first six months are the hardest.  I have had to put up with psycho flat mates, being sold a car that wasn't roadworthy, applying for hundreds of jobs and not hearing anything back, having my car attacked and then haven't it blow up on me.....but I am still here and healthy. I have put myself through a course to gain my Certificate in Aged and Disablity Care and  I am extremely lucky that I have secured a job at the Gold Coast Hospital.  I am doing a mixture of office administration and Assistant in Nursing.  The pay is very good, earning in a fortnight what I would make in a month in New Zealand.  I am making lots of new friends, both New Zealanders and Australians. The shopping is amazing, the weather is beautiful and there is always lots to see and do. The only thing that could make it more perfect would be to have my family join me; one day perhaps they will. xx
