Thunder and lightening and all things frightening

Maroochydore has been under attack by thunderstorms. These aren't your average thunderstorms either. The thunder sounds like bombs are being dropped over head, the lightening lights up the whole sky and is prone to strike many things, and the combined effect leaves the rooms shaking. That's what you call a thunderstorm! I went and ate pizza on the beach in the middle of one thunderstorm, came back to the hostel and went swimming with the lads afterwards. We were in the pool with the lightening striking all round us - insanely stupid but an incredible experience.
So Saturday (11th december) was my last day in the door to door sales. This week I've spent job hunting, swimming, wakeboarding, hanging out with friends and partying. The job hunting is crazy unsuccessful so I'm returning to the sales gig on monday. I hate to have to do it, but I need money and something is better than nothing at the minute. It will be different from before tho, as a few people have quit and Josh got fired. That means new management styles and new organisation. It sounds like its working, I just hope it works for me!
We've had some cool people staying at the hostel recently. 2 brits for 2 nights called paul and alex, and a scottish couple, brendan the melbournian and brogan the kiwi. Together with me, dan and avril it makes a good little group. We went out for drinks last night to mooloolaba, sat outside in the thunderstorm chilling out. We came home and decided it would be a good idea to jump into the pool. We had diving competitions, tried to walk someone from one side of the pool to the other over people's shoulders, human pyramids, and we created an awesome game which is a cross between water polo and rugby!!! So much fun :)
Anyways the sun is shining, its 10am and I'm off to enjoy my last 2 days before work starts again!!!
Laters, Peace :) xxx
