Good even Yonguk-sshi. I hope you don't mind. I made a few grammar and punctuation corrections on your entry. If there are any questions or explanations for corrections you would like to know, you can ask them in a comment ☺.

It's been a while since I came on Italki and wrote a notebook. I've been doing well in Gold Coast, Australia; working at a hotel for almost 3 months now. Working in a hotel is hard. I'm working in a laundry department and usually my shift is during the night, so my days and nights have changed which makes me more tired ;(. Also I usually sleep unless I'm working, so I can't do some things I thought I wanted to do in Australia (I think I'm too lazy sometimes ;p).Oh right, and it's been almost 7 months since I've stayed here! Wow! Time flies-seriously.
I'm not sure my English has improved even a bit, but I'm pretty sure I picked up an Aussie accent ! I also learned some new Aussie words like: Brisbane -> Brissy, Mcdonalds- -> Mccas, this afternoon -> arvo, mosquito -> mossie, good day -> G'day...
and you know, Aussie people use the word 'mate' a lot ! Seriously, A LOT . I don't really wanna use the word, but sometimes I say like , 'hey mate, how's it goin' unconsciously, so funny.
Anyways, I'm planning to travel to other cities in Australia whilst I'm staying here. To do that I need money, so I'm trying to save money at the moment. I learned the lesson that 'there's no easy things in life' which I knew that already just superficially. But now I think I really know it haha.
The reasons I came to Australia were: first-being fluent at English, and second-getting experience in abroad (I've never stayed abroad this long before.) I hope to believe that I've been doing well trying to achieve my goals.
I think I should write more often here.
