So like, there's this tour. And it would be an ideal way for me to get back to Perth AND explore on the way. I get to see more than on a Greyhound bus and I'm not driving on my own. Thing is, it'll be around $900 to get back to Perth that way when I take in expenses for the tour, accomodation, food, frieght for my stuff up here etc.

I want to be saving money so that when I get back to Perth Matt and I can find a nice place to rent and maybe even buy and move on in and hopefully live happily ever after with just the two of us living in the house. A plane trip will get me back to Perth much quicker too.

But, I really want to see stuff on the way down again. The tour is pretty budget for what you get, and it will be fun. I'm currently working out more precise costs. I mean, if I get a job not long after I get home I'll have money rolling in again, and I'm so used to living on barely anything that once I get a regular job I'll feel like I'm rolling in it. But I'd rather be able to take at least a few weeks off to recuperate after getting home. November/December is the ideal time to househunt because uni students have moved out and prices will be down. If I leave it till Janurary prices will be shooting up again.

Goddamn it, why can't I just buy a winning scratchie? It always comes down to bloody money issues.

If I won lots of money I'd fly Matt back up and we'd do the tour together. Now THAT would be the ideal.
