If you were in America and earning $2700 a month as a student…You would be damn lucky. In fact, more than damn lucky. My own father brings home about $4000-5000 a month (maybe more, but I don’t know..that’s just a guess…). Is there a huge monetary difference between AU and USA?

$2700 is in Australian dollars though! So that makes it about US$1500 or something like that. It’s actually minimal wage I think. Australia pays pretty well for casual/non-skilled jobs.. the minimum wage for my age is about AU$14 and in Singapore it’s about AU$5. Not sure how it goes in the US though?

Jeez Bev…

That’s so cool .. and I think 2700 is a really good salary, considering that you’re still a student..

Is that like after tax ?? if it is .. you should be happy !!
If I’m not wrong, MacQ also has an ice skating rink as well as a driving range up the road, so u can polish up your swings / drives !!

Re: pics of your room

I don’t get taxed ‘cos I’m in the tax-free threshold, thankfully!! But I know people in the same field earn way way more than me – but I guess i’ts cos they’re graduates and work full time.. I can’t wait to graduate now πŸ˜›

The ice skating rink is cool, but no golfing for me thanks! I’m so bad at it πŸ˜‰

yo bev

u’ll get sick of mq center, it’s not all that good and by the way if some crazy chick comes up to u and says ‘hi hi hi i read ur journal.’- i just wanna tell you that person is me. so don’t be afraid- i don’t bite (no in public anywhys).

Re: pics of your room

GOod idea! I’ll do it tonight when I get home.. man, I wouldn’t mind a 4 bedroom house though πŸ˜‰

hey bev! I need your professional opinion about the Stila trios in “picnic at the beach and park. I am purchising then from a fellow MUA member in a couple of weeks.
and your the pro here so I thought id have your opinion πŸ™‚

Re: pics of your room

Heya! Erm.. I think I used to have the Beach one, but didn’t really use it. I don’t like Stila trios as much ‘cos I can’t put them in my MAC palette like I do with my UD e/s. But apart from that, they’re really good quality and fun to use.. πŸ™‚

Re: pics of your room

Oh, any of the empty pans! I like the 15-pan one best, it’s only US$11 I think.. I have 3 of them and filled them up with UD e/s.
