Not so easy living

So I've been out here for a week now, I've started up my job as a liftie but I still haven't found a place to live ... and its starting to wear me down. As you all heard (if you bothered reading my previous posts) my journey out here was pretty rough. I got about 3-4 hours of bad sleep each night for 3 nights in a row. Then when I got here I've been staying in a hostel in a dorm room so the sleep hasn't been that good either. Being kept awake by people snoring and getting up in the middle of the night. Then I've had to start work at 7:00am the last 2 days, so getting up at 6:00am. I've just not really been eating that well, not getting good rest and either boarding or working all day. So basically I'm running my batteries down. I just need to find a place to live and settle down. Then I can start buying good food and cooking it, sleeping well and just get unpacked a bit so I can sort my self out. Hopefully something comes up soon. I'm going to try and get into employee housing tomorrow but I'm not too excited about it. It probably means living with a bunch of 18 year old who just want to party all the time. It would be just like Bodington Hall again. Oh well, I can't really be too picky. My reservation runs out in a couple of days so I might be crashing couches after that. So its all a bit crap on that front but bottom line is that I'm out here for the season and I'll sort something out, it just might not be that easy, nice or convenient.
