Evaporating leisure.
I've been having such a good time in Brisbane since I've been back. I've found time to do all the things I have to do, like prepare for my course, and find work. I've also had plenty of leisure time, which will end tomorrow when my course starts.
I don't have a lot of money, but there are lots of things to do here. I've discovered the State Library of Queensland has free wireless Internet access. I've using it to do my course pre-task and stay in touch with friends and family in Japan. I usually get in to West End and have a coffee at Ugees before the library opens at ten and stay until just after six when the traffic has died down. Sometimes I pack a lunch and sit on the grass by the river.
The GoMA which is just next door to the library runs free films in their Cinémathèque every day. They are showing films accompanying the Andy Warhol exhibition which is on right now. I've seen a few free exhibitions, but since I can't really afford to spend $20 or $30 I haven't been able to see it.
That was until tonight, I finally have a chance to see it. A group of my mothers friends booked tickets to the exhibition and concert tonight, and some of them can't make it. Art is for everybody right? Also playing tonight is Ed Kuepper, well known for his seminal early Australian punk band The Saints.

Dear Brett
you are taking a CELTA course?
i once was accepted to a CELTA course just a month before i went to Japan. but i knew i would be VERY BUSY....with the visa, and etc. (knew i would be able to complete the course successfully, without taking any day off)
and no confidence to take such course...it requires much energy and my english level might not be sufficient.
i have been in BKK for a few days and been so so busy with eating haha
i am glad everything is going well with u
Sounds like you are having fun, eating out with friends. This weekend is Easter, so I'll taking some time to spend with family just relaxing at home. I hope you have a good weekend.
