2. On 28th of August Melbourne hit 21 degrees which means the winter is over and long waited spring is here. Officially the spring starts on 1st of September. I just love it. No more heating electric blankets, lower electricity and gas bills. Time to find the shorts and skirts out of the draws and live more outside than inside the rooms.
3. Report from work at Crown Vip Mahogany Room:
* Yesterday I served Dom Pérignon Brut Vintage, one of the world's most famous
champagne, 360 dollars a bottle. Luckily my performance was
immaculate:)!
* Older man from Greece: I've travelled a lot and
seen even more but never in my life have I seen hair done this way. It
is fabulous!
* I ended up having great discussions with older couples (who had been together 39-49 years). They all love travelling and they love casinos. When I asked what is the secret of long lasting marriage one of the couples told that they just love each other but they still fight, though they call them disagreements.
The other couple was very interesting - the man was from Hungary and the woman (Rita) from Estonia! It was such a surprise. She had lived in Australia since she was a kid, over 50 years now but still talked perfect Estonian. Anyway, this man told me that the secret for being together 49 years is TO TAKE AND TO GIVE. The man, called Antal, said to me that if u can avoid fighting, do it! Just say to each other that you will talk about it the next day and then later on while both of you have calmed down it's better to start talking about it. And sometimes later on you forget about it. He also mentioned that a big cuddle, good sex and a drink together helps the couple to overcome the obstacles. By the way, he was eager to marry me with his son, who lives in Budapest and is English teacher. He persuaded me to write down his name and check him up on Facebook. It didn't help I told I was in a good relationship. Funny he was. I sure did enjoy those conversations.
