Shopping, date and off work

Saturday 3rd August for done reason woke up just after 7 so was there before post office opened at 9am. As had a parcel to collect my foam roller as thought best get one to help with calf pain then go to Coles for a few things. Home then go to catch train with Debbie and trust it to be just pulling away as we arrived so had to wait 30 minutes. Got train to Strathfield and just made 2nd train to Parramatta and for some reason thought it was further away than it was. We decided to go to Parramatta shopping for a change as is home to a major shopping and retail centre in western Sydney. It is also home to Westfield Parramatta, the third largest shopping centre in Australia receiving over 28 million visitors every year. There was a few different shops and was just nice to look round somewhere different but didn't but anything only McDonalds to get my free glass. On way back get off at North Strathfield to go look round DFO as not been for a while and still refurbishing so shops moved. Looked in Peter Alexander as fancied new pjs tried sone on but was nothing that different where you couldn't buy anywhere else. Tried a nice jumper on at Tommy Hilfiger but preferred the grey which obviously didn't have in my size but hopefully more choice in New York. Went to Sheridan's as wanted a new bath mat which I couldn't find but I did find the matching pillowcases to my quilt. I also bought some converse trainers tempted with star ones but ended up getting blue as thought go with more. Was also sone Nine West sandals I liked but not in my size before walking back had apple & cinnamon muffin but could of dine with more cinnamon. On way back stop at Coles as Debbie need a few things but I bought new coconut vodka drink with pineapple. When back I cooked tea chicken satay but didn't do it from fresh was a sachet and was very nice definitely have again, then meringue with cream & strawberries. Speak to mum and dad who have now booked airport hotel for night before their fly to Australia. Their are worried that their might not see much of me so said that I will try to request sone annual leave whilst their here. Finished watching Cool a running and tried my new vodka drink but felt the pineapple overpowered the coconut vodka. I then watched 'Transforners' which I have never seen before and trust me to fall so still don't know what happened.
Sunday woke up 8ish and went for run 10ish managed 6.70 miles without stopping even with calf pain. Supposed to meet Lou but no reply but she was out yesterday so when Debbie went to work I left with her to go for Coles for more juice. Home chill and watched '3 men and little lady' which haven't seen for Yeats then make tea chicken pasta bake was good. Decided then to go meet Tiago the Brazilian lad who I met last Saturday when out with Nat. I ended up meeting him at Opera bar at 7.30 was nice night he was very pleasant and we talked for ages not sure where the time went. He also want to meet up again which I probably will and someone selling roses so he bought me one got in midnight. On Monday got up at 8.30 as thought meeting BJ at 9.30 but was actually 9am so will have to reschedule. But decided since I was there I might aswell work so I did the plan which BJ gave me plus some cardio was there over an hour. Home chilled and Katie my new flatmate had emailed wanting me to pay her shipping fee if she transferred money via western union, I had said 'no'. But for reason she had already done the transfer so I had no choice but to do the transaction at post office. So I left when Debbie went to work and straight to post office to do the transfer via western union. Then to city to look round the shops went to Nike and found some running trousers and tops I like but will keep looking. I then found a lace top at David Jones by Maison Scotch a Dutch company which I have never heard of before. When trying things need jeans to try with top so tried on some nice jeans by J brand but is an American so best to look in New York. When I went to pay realised gone over my allowed allowance for the day since I did the western union transfer. So I went to get cash out which couldn't get out so went back to shop and can reserve for 1week hopefully go back Thursday. On way back look in Mulberry found 2 bags I liked but maybe abit out of my price range cheapest was $1500. Back to Nike who luckily take Westfield card $50 so only had to pay $20 to get my new running trousers. Tried to find tutu for colour run as thought would be fun to wear one but had no luck finding one. Next to Haigh's chocolate shop as Debbie wanted some dark chocolate buttons and got free sample to try. Then to walk to Opera House stopping at Ugg onroute as had sale on but was none that I really liked. At Opera House to look for opera for me and Debbie and also see what on whilst Sharon here recommend South Paific or Romeo & Juliet. Then home get in 7ish have tea noodles and sushi and couldn't eat all the sushi will do for tomorrow. Phoned mum and dad to confirm when here on holiday so can try to book holiday for their last week their here. Watched mastechef was heston week and then new show 'Mr Selfridge' about department store was good. Debbie finished late didn't get in til 10.45 speak for abit then bed and couldn't get to sleep.
