Melbournetown

Handed in something vaguely resembling a Masters thesis and celebrated by spending the next 24 hours in a hideously uncomfortable seat being force-fed microwaved fish and drooled on by two middle aged globe trotters in matching navy blazers as I flew home.

Its good to be back in Melbourne but there are literally NO jobs at the moment so today I officially went on the dole. In other news, have moved into a massive warehouse in Fitzroy with eleven hippie stoners. My room is a small curtained-off hovel built on the roof of someone else's hovel and is only accessible by climbing a precarious flight of stair made out of milk crates. I doubt i'll last more than a month. There are communal showers. The good side is we are converting the entire block into a massive urban garden with vegie patches in every available corner. The bad side is I can't afford to leave the house.
