Rococo

Saturday night we went out for dinner with some friends in StKilda, our friends chose the resturant as they had heard amazing reviews about it.
We went to rococo - Acland Street


Amazing it was not.

We arrived and they didnt even have a table spare for us, despite having a reservation
We finally were seated in a small corner (table of 6 people)
Drinks where ordered and completely finished before they came back and took our order
food arrived.. and it was so dissapointing!
The first 4 meals on the "main menu" where all salads.. Poor D he loves his food and he order lamb skewers on a bed of a salad, Yeh okay we thought that there would be 4 nice sized skewers (For $30 you'd hope so!) Instead this came out.


Oh the look on D's face
There was 2 small lamb skewers, D being Greek this wasnt food to him!
We actually swung past coles on the way home so he could buy some actually food.
We got home around 1am and instead of going to bed we stayed up being rebels - We watched "Whats your number" Its actually hilarious and would recommend it.

Yesterday was meant to be a day for me to relax and not have to be active - Yes I felt like a fat day! Instead D wakes up and tells me to "get my gym gear on.. We're going for a walk!" So I did what I was told, little did I know he had plans to walk half of Melbourne - Hahah.. My legs are killing me this morning - Shouldnt really complain the weather was so nice!

We got home around 5.30pm got changed an then headed out for dinner & me being me got ice-cream for desert - Yum! Whats your must have after going out for dinner or do you always order the bad stuff at the rest?

 Last week I posted about some very exciting news which I should be able to tell you guys - I went for my absolute dream job (2 levels from where I am now in terms of the recruitment ladder) I was suprised I even got a call back, I did tho and I met with their National Recruitment Manager, half way into our interview he wanted to speak with my referees and gave me all postive vibes! He even called me after the interview to cover off on some things that we didnt speak about.. Unfortunatley for me tho.. I didnt get the job some other superstar with 12 months more experience was interviewed after me and in terms of where the business is sitting they felt they would be the better candidate - in terms of experience.

He did say his team is growing and there is a 90% chance he will call me within 4 months with another opporunity. - Which is something but I'll admit I am devo!
There is only a few chances that come along like that - Such is life.

AUDI

My hair hasnt been the best condition recently - It may of been the extreme change in atmosphere while we where away I may have fried myself but anyhow my hair has just been a total disgrace. I went to hair house warehouse and the woman tried to sell me every product under the sun. No deal.

I went passed my hairdressers on the way home and for a few months now she has been telling me to get onto kerastase hair products as I would be amazed - Ive seen a few posts about it recently and it had me thinking. My hairdresser was so proud when I said I wanted to buy it!
Damn this stuff is pricey
I brought a bottle of shampoo and then a container of this rinse out conditioner.


I used it for the first time lasnight and oh my god this stuff is un believable! My hair already feels brand new, best part is that you need the smallest amount. Turns out that my $100 purchase will last me a little while. - Thankgod.


Lastnight after work  I went out with some friends for some drinks 
What is it with people these days - If you go out with a group of girls your bound to have a group of muzzas with zero IQ's come up to you and try and start a conversation, which will generally start with "Hey babes..how you doin?"

Today D and I went to do some serious car shopping the boy is looking at a BWM that I can only ever imagine spending that much cash on - He was put on the spot today with a price he couldn't deny so i'll keep you updated, me on the other hand last year I was looking at getting a Madza 2 - I still admit I think their as cute as ever but I found an Audi A3 and fell in love. I spoke to the owner today and we tee'd up a time for me to inspect it and test drive. 

Its a 2006 and its just under $20K. I have never driven a European car before but aren't they amazing? It is a 2 door hatchback with a sunroof and leather interior its decked out with a sports kit and alloy wheels (I actually sound like I know what I'm talking about but I really don't!) It is a dream to drive it feels fantastic! I really want it. I have some decisions to make!


Do you drive an AUDI A3? If so..Tell me your thoughts! OR can you suggest some other zippy sporty city cars under $20K?
