Woke up this morning at a pretty reasonable time. I thought that I would be running late for the bus this morning, but I seemed to have made it without doing the 100 meter sprint and without looking like a fool as well.
When I got to the station there wasn't as many people waiting as there had been for the past few days, but that all changed when we all boarded the train. Either a bunch of people got new jobs or I really underestimated how many people really catch the train from this station.
Rocio mentioned that she had in her head for most of the day about images of Dubbo (the way that I had described) and no longer wanted to go there anymore, and that we needed to find another place to visit. She suddenly mentioned that Steve was very talkative today, and it took me a while to realise she was talking about the comic behind us. I literally did a big "OOohhhh!!" and agreed, as it seemed as though he had a friend with him on the train and was in a big discussion with him. We then burst into fits of laughter as one day, when they are talking about someone close by and they (hopefully) have no idea that we were talking about him.
Once we arrived at Parramatta, we realised that we had been stationed here for longer than usual. When we noticed people getting off the train. There was an announcement, but it wasn't on the train but was on the platform so we couldn't hear what they were saying. We did noticed that everyone had started to get off the train. Apparently there was a 'medical emergency' and everyone had to leave the train to catch another one. As this would be stopping here and not moving at all. So everyone within the whole train left and went on to platform 3! It's bad enough that the train was crowded already, but to be crowded again within Parramatta, not such a fun thing. Though one funny thing was that there was an announcement on platform 3 that said "The train which is running late, is now definitely late". Huh!?!
It took as a while to catch a train that was going into the city, as the first few trains were jam packed filled with people, and I'm a small person. I had no doubt that I would have been lost under someones armpit if we caught the first few trains. Even with me catching a later train, I was only late for work by about 20 minutes, so no real harm done, but it was a good thing that I had let them know the moment I knew something happened within Parramatta.
Within the first hour at work I had managed to clear out all the invoices which were clogging up for the past few days. The only invoices which were left had issues with them, and so I couldn't touch them anyways until they were fixed. The rest of the day I ended up clearing a few emails, and I managed to clear about 30 of them, which I was so very proud of myself. I even had a moment to help someone with a change of ownership with a supplier, but there wasn't really much to show as there were only a couple of things that needed to be done to it.
During lunch I dragged Gloria with me to a Sony electronics store. I had finally had enough of my iPod and wanted to get something to play my music that didn't wipe out all of my songs the moment that I wanted to put a few new songs on there. So I managed to find something reasonable, and it also has a FM radio! TAKE THAT APPLE! So when I got back to work, I cleared a few more emails while also charging for the first time my new SONY MP3 player.
And I can tell you, the trip home was one of the best going home in a long time! Listening to the radio! Wow... I hadn't done that in such a long time. And the best thing ?? I put it on Triple M and they welcomed me back by played a Muse song! Wow! Such bless! I have now spent the past 20 minutes updating it with songs. And the best part about it all? I've put soo many songs, and for a 16GB memory... it isn't full yet! And even if it was, there is always the comfort of the radio to listen to once more.
MY 100TH POST!
Happy 100th post to me! I honestly cannot believe that I've reached 100 posts! I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who has been reading my posts, and coming along with this journey with me every day. I honestly thought that when I decided to do this at the beginning of the year, that I wouldn't be excited to note down and take photos of what I do each and every day.
So thank you to everyone who has been reading my adventures. It is everyone who reads this little blog of mine that makes me excited to note down what I get up to each and every day.
Thank you!
