When I grow up I want to be just like Charlie Sheen.
I was really looking forward to the SG Ball until I realized it's on the weekend that my little brother is visiting me in Sydney ! I can hardly ditch him for the night just so I can go... Or can I ??
Another reason i cant go is now that I've had all my money stolen I'm preeeetty poor! The bank said i won't...

Bring your brother with you 

I'm such a freaking insomniac. Man I love sleep!! I live next to a train line and frieght trains are constantly running in the early hours of the morning.. I really dig the hum of the steam engine and the clicking of the tracks. There's something about the rhythm of it that's really calming.
Also I've started seeing a really cute girl! She's pretty okay

Hey,tonight is the start of the Sydney fringe festival ,its all around the inner west.
I've fallen victim to an ATM scam. I had all my savings drained from my account over the weekend. Hopefuly the bank will sort it out and I'll get it back.
It topped off a pretty crud weekend. It sucks not knowing many people in a new city.. It gets pretty fucking lonely!

That's fucking lame dude. Someone did that to me about 5 years ago (credit card not ATM) and it got sorted pretty quick. Are you going to the ball? Should be a good place to meet similar people.

I notified my financial institution of an unauthorised transaction. I waited the 40 business days as requested, then I received a letter in the mail to notify me that my pin was used to withdraw the funds, so therefore it had to have been me, and nobody had stolen my money.
I phoned up and spoke to this woman who could barely speak a word of English. I tried explaining to her all the details, and she kept butting in, and then eventually said "are you not satisfied with the content of the letter". Uhm.. clearly NOT!
I had to fight it, but eventually the funds were returned to me and I got this brief letter stating that.
What pissed me off the most, was that I was scammed at my local ATM, outside my own bank!
Moral of the story, be persistent with getting your money back.
