They have done it to me again….. About two weeks ago, Toni a girl off the bus and I had gotten fairly close and she was leaving me for a few days. Had to make ANOTHER new friend, easy as you do this while your travelling all the time. Found Joey from Colorado really great guy with pretty sexy eyes too. Chilled out went on a hike one day, he was the first one to know about my new job and the excitement of it, you get pretty close with people pretty fast when you spend every minute with them. Now I know what you girls are thinking and No sorry this was a friend ONLY. He had no idea what he was doing ended up staying In Qtown longer than planned, a few days later 3 very HOT America fire fighters from Oregon happen to be chillin in my room when I get back from a shower. Hit it off with them straight away, by the next day were thinking about getting a flat together. PERFECT! Having a pretty great week at this point got a full time 9-5 job working for Good Group. They own a bunch of the bars in town and a chain of liquor stores and a few other pubs and cafes. I’m doing accounting for them basically and answering phones and just whatever they need me to do. So about mid week I’m thinking I’m set great new job and some pretty cool guys to live with….. or so I thought. They left this morning, got jobs in Nelson fruit picking and they took Joey with them, should never have introduced them to each other I guess. But they will be back in a few months so I’ll see them again. Still got the job though.
Queenstown is just the best place to live, but I don’t know how I’m living the way I am. I worked a 40 hour week and went out every night till at least 1 am. For some reason it seems for the first while that you are in Qtown you just don’t get hang overs. It freaks everyone out and starts to get really expensive because you have no reason not to drink so everyone goes out every night. It’s crazy, it’s like there isn’t another option, I know part of this is because I’m still living in the hostel, but really this town is basically here because of its night life, and the tourism.
This is more a reminder for me then telling you, but I’ll maybe write a little blurb about the people who are staying in the hostel and have been here for a while. Especially the jemma’s who are just THE BEST, crack me up all day long.
