Oh cricket, where have you been all my life.
On that note, earlier today I got a tattoo. Now, some of you know, some of you dont, but Tim and his friends are into home-done tattoos, and when we were in Canada I put a leaf on Tim's shoulder. Well he did this one, its the symbol from Hedwig and the Angry Inch and its in the middle of the right hand side of my back, just below the ribs. You know, right in that fleshy bit. It pretty much hurt like the dickens in a few places, but otherwise was tolerable. It took quite a while, definitely over an hour, and Tim said it was challenging because it is in a circle, and also my skin is apparently quite stretchy and doesn't like ink very much. I also start to bleed pretty nasty after I had a cookie break. Stupid cookies.
I have been experimenting with cookies, as NOTHING is the same here. We, in Canada, REALLY put a lot of sugar into everything, not to much here. I ate an Australian oreo, and I will tell you this, it was definitely not something I would eat a whole package of. In some ways I suppose that's good but.... ew. So, I decided to branch out. So far, so good. If you ever come to Australia, pretty much anything from Arnott's is go. Tim Tams are the best things that have ever happened to me. I also had Butter Nut Snaps, when I saw the package I was like squash cookies, wtf? But it turns out they were like Dad's brand cookies, but they were about 500% better. Yeeessssssss.
I had my first job interview the other day, they will let me know by the 21st how it went. I think I did well, but I don't have my hopes up excessively, because I'd rather not have them dashed by not getting my absolute dream job. I also don't want to jinx it by giving many details :D
More on that by the 21st!

Scratching tattoos? ASHLEY! You know better, just be safe thats all girl, I dont condone it, but who the fuck am I? hahaha. Over an hour is alot? My sleeve was 35 hours O.o, took 7, 5 hour sessions.
Cookies eh? Not a fan in general, but enjoy the new culture! You ever coming back to Canada for a visit?
Of course we're safe, we get all our supplies from real tattoo shops, we just do it by hand rather than by gun. It's much more intimate and rewarding in some ways, though I wouldnt want to get anything massive in that way. It was over an hour because its right in the middle of my back, which is fleshy and bendy, and it also hurt a ton and i was being a wimp so Tim was taking it easy on me lol.
I'll come back when my Visa runs out, but otherwise, I'm here as long as humanly possible!
