Guest51810 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 It's money that's stopping me too haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Needham Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I'm doing as much overtime at work to try and get out there quicker, had to stick a big poster of Australia next to my bed to keep me motivated each morning haha. It will be worth it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest51810 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I'm the same. Every time I think about refusing a double shift I think of the quokkas lol :laugh: I've got 2 little tiny little koala teddies. One person gave me one and I found the other in my room when I took a crappy seasonal job that came with accommodation. I took that as a sign but the job didn't work out lol. I'm going to start carrying them as motivation and I'll change my phone screensaver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B I think so too, which is why I was orginally going on Christmas Day this year but there was hardly any accomodation left and what was left was not great and ridiculously expensive. So I thought it would be amazing to see the year out that way :-) Haha i know the feeling, which is why I'm trying not to plan to much now :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might do that if my new year plan doesn't work out. Then you can swoop on accommodation as it comes out lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
