Once I say bye to Luke I get my phone out and get an uber to my new house. When I get my phone out I see that Luke has already texted me and said that he wants to hang out next weekend.

About half an hour later I get to my new home. It is so much prettier than it was in pictures. Now that I have stopped gawking at my new home I go inside and look around.

After walking around for a few minutes figuring out all the rooms, I decide that the room with a window facing the beach is the room that will be mine. I'm glad that I bought the house furnished, because I hate decorating and I am terrible at it.

Now that I am kind of settled in, I have decided that I am going to go for a walk on the beach. While I am walking down the steps that lead down the the beach behind my house I smell the nasty stench of fish that I will have to get used to now that I live on a beach.

I have been walking for about 15 minutes before I see another person. I wave and then they wave me over to them. I decide why not, they are probably my neighbor, so I go over to the mystery person.

As I am walking over I take in what they look like. They have curly blonde hair and they are wearing an ugly purple shirt.

When I approach they speak first "hello, I'm Ashton. You are?"

"I'm Louna, I just moved in a few houses down."

"Oh cool I live just right up there" Ashton then points up towards his home.

" you are one of the first people I have met here, I know this is kind of a weird sudden question but do you know any interesting jobs around here that are easy to get?"

He then responds with "not that I know of but I'm sure you could find one"

I say thank you for the help, and then we say our goodbyes and exchange numbers.

On the plane ride to Australia while talking to Luke I had made a mental note that I would bye some hair dye, and dye my hair to help me forget my past. So now I am searching for a store that sells hair dye.

I finally get to a store and I search the store for the hair dye isle. My hair is naturally blonde so I want to do something dark. I decide on a dark purple.

After a few minutes of searching around the store I find the hair dye isle. I first grab the bleach so I can get my hair lighter so the color will be more even. When I stand back up I see that someone else is in the isle with me. The first thing I notice about him is that he has bright pink hair. He sees me staring and I look away suddenly out of embarrassment. I then go to reach for the dark purple and he reaches for it to and we grab the same box. I let go of the box and he does to, so the box falls to the ground. I then pick up the box claiming it as mine.
