Weds 4th August....sun yaaay :)

Was a lush warm day today......we went on a permimeter hike aroyund the fence of the park having to dig holes to lay bait for the wild dog that got inot the wildlife park and is killnig all the small wallabies!
Our group have apparently worked alot harder than any other ISV group in the park so they are actually starting to run out of jobs for us to do.
We split into groups in the after noon. I went with Briana, Bridget and Sarah to feed the koala's, bilbys wombat and dingoes with Tom the park ranger. He's a laugh and alot more relaxed than the other wildlife park staff. We got to play wuith all the animals.....clean out their enclosures and intereact with them :) It was amazinggg!!
It was starve day for the dingoes to keep it as natural and wild as possible as not every day in of the week wild dingoes find food! However this ment they were going a little crazy and were wanting any food they could get their hands on. They are this gorgeous snowy white colour, kind of like huskys! They were pelting it round and round their enclosure and trynig to eat and dig up the trees we were planting for them! Tom locked us in while he went to give a reptile talk to park visitors so we were dodging out the way of diving dingoes everywhere,lol! We didnt finish planting the trees until 4.30pm which was 30mins after we usually finish work but it was fun anyway!
We finally got back to our hut and popped to Gosford to buy things for our final dinner tomorrow night....an aussie BBQ :) After dinner we watched a film called Samson and Delila about an aboriginal youngcouple...uits kind of depressing they get beaten, attacked and left homeless and get into drugs....apparently a typical aboriginal story since they have been removed from the desert and isolated from normal society in towns.
We went back to the hut and played taboo whichw as fun...however this one girl Zoe who is abit of a loner went and lit a campfire by herself.....then when none of uis realised she had been up there for 2 hours she made this big deal about us leaving her out or something! we just assumed she'd gone to bed up in the tents where she chose to sleep on her own! she likes to throw pity parties for herself and i actually saw her write down 'a massively depressive person' about her self in her journal the other day before she burst into tears for no reason :s keep her away from the knives maybe :s
Our leader and the 3 irish came home and had a go at us for leaving zoe on her own....but she'd kind of done it on purpose i think to cut her nose off to spite her face! Any way one of the irish boys Dave is superrrr aggressive and rough...he basially targetted me and had a rightgo at me for being such a selfish self-centred person and that everythings all me me meee....i argued back and told him to get the stick out of his arse and what the hell was his problem etc......and he said he was only having a go at me coz im the only person who actually bothered standing up to him!....after an awkwards 20min silence between us he apoligised for losing his temper for no reason...maybe keep the knives away from him too lol! Im not going to let it get to me thoguh as im having a great time and he's just a looney who probs need help for his temper problem! tomorrow is our last days work in the park...its gone sooo faast :( but im sooooo looknig forward to the next 2 weeks partying and doing cool adventure things like diving in the coral reef, and skydiving :D
