fourteenth day in the land of the roos...its been 2 weeks since i've been here.oh wells. went to jail todae.no, i didnt commit any offences.museum.haha.scary sia.the cells were cold.the death masks were also scary. ned kelly was hung there too. the cells were uber small.then also the female prisoners were kept in groups, in bigger cells.at first they were in the same block as the male and then were sepearated from the males cus of emotional and physical danger. the warderns were also no sympathy kind.even the female kind. the prisoners also could not imagine a fellow australian so ruthless. it was scary, all in all.
then went for a tour of the old watch house.we were treated like crooks who were caught and then given arrest or charge sheets.i was damien orbst or smth.charged with possesion of a firearm and claimed it belonged to my dad who had a licence for it.they took our names and stuff.the desk sarge. then walked to a room, where we stood against the wall shoulder to shoulder and then were checked.btw the hands also cus drugs could be plastered on.shoes and below tongue. then we were seperated into groups of our arresting officers.mine was senior constable trinh i tink. then we were hurded into cells.it was VERY cold, had the smell of urine and after awhile, the sarge turned off the light for bout 5 mins? then he brought us out and explained somemore and said that they could stay for 13 hours then get releases. one cell could let 3 men sleep on the benches and then the rest had to sleep on the floor or sleep standing up. there were 3 small cushions and white thick hospital typed blankies.before that it was "the itchy army towels"then made our way to the ladies holding cells.it was bigger and not as cold. the excersice yard was also smaller than the mens. then we took a mugshot of ourselves.had to use our own cameras, of course.
went for lunch.had ramen.and gyoza.then went to check out the haviannas and found out that the shop had a sale.ended up buying a quicksilver shirt.i'm so broke.100+ left for 2 weeks.now can really "chi si pei feng le" or eat the winter winds.not metaphorically this time.. and went home to "get some money" to but a mc eurpoe burger.wanted to try it out.but then ended up staying le.cus 1.its UBER cold. 2.its nice and cosy baq home =) 3.it was foggy. 4.its cold, foggy and i was hungry.i know i repeated cold and foggy.it WAS.and still is..
dinner was soup.b4 that we went to buy noodles cus i ate one cup ytd and my uncle and aunty are crazy bout it.so after dinner we did our own impt stuff and then ended up eating noodles while my uncle ate my crumplets.they're spongey bread like thingys, by the way. so yea.watched balls of steel on the tele and then.ya.
