I think I'm starting to feel better and get into the traveling/backpacking mood.
I don't think I really have jet lag other than waking up early. Maybe the matrix has helped eliminate that.
On Sunday, I went to the beach in the morning while listening to some yoga/new age music. It was nice and warm with surfers in the water. After that, I found a way nicer internet cafe than the terminals in my hostel. I walked around and bought groceries, and even found an organic restaurant and store. Later on, I went back to the beach to chill, but the clouds rolled in and got a bit chilly. When I went back to the hostel to cook my dinner, I met some Canadian girls from Ottawa. I hung out in the patio area and met more people, including alot of Europeans. I finally met someone I could do matrix on. He's a crazy funny performer with a gypsy lifestyle. He did a party trick where he would put his gut on the table and start running in the air. Yes, pretty funny to watch. He totally corresponded to my idea of this world, and I think he was probably one in a hundred that would on Bondi Beach. He had a stubborn blockage in his heart which was hard to take out completely. O yes, I finally had my first drink which was a cup of wine. When the patio was closed, I went to eat out with some of them on the beach at night.
I have only booked 2 nights at this hostel and I know it was not the greatest. It was either to stay longer somewhere else or go into the city. I have decided to do the second because I was feeling guilty for continually spending money at a tourist spot. I took the bus and train to Kingcross and booked 2 nights at Eva's backpackers. The place is much better but I'm sharing a room with 10 people in it. There were so many luggages and personal belongings in the room. I had lunch and then walked around check out different hostels. There are some in old victorian buildings which are quite interesting. All of them already have too many travellers working in there so I can't attempt to stay for free.
Kingcross is like a mix of Gastown and Hasting area, and apparently there are alot of prostitution and drugs going on at night. The Canadian girls have told me that it's nothing as bad as Hasting Street so I'm totally fine with this sorta ghetto-ness. Party life should be a bit better here and it's close to the train station which can take me to the central part of city quickly. I was hoping that food would be cheaper but I don't find it so from looking at restaurant's menus.
I got an email from YHA in Cronoulla Beach (south in Sydney) saying that there are tons of work available at the moment and asked me to go there asap. I think I'll stay in town for another week or so, and decide if I should go find work in northern or southern beaches.
