I guess there is a time in every ones life when they have a little strike of silly luck.

The past week and a 1/2 have been mine

I had a date with a Little too much 'kool-ade" when it all began....

and I

Misplaced my camera

mhm

The other thing was I accidentally snapped my glasses in half.........In a frantic rush one evening (what the rush was I don't recal), I was throwing things in my corner when I put my hand down hastily, leaving my poor innocent frames decapitated and disemboweled. I have my contacts though and will get new glasses in the near future. There is no optomitrist here.

Other then that I have a smile on my face because I know my Bowen adventures are coming to an end.

It's like when you were a kid on a road trip, and you can see your destination in the distance.

Leaving the uncontrollable urge to ask "are we there yet"????? on the side for a later trek. Parents go insane with that question too, and to be honest it woud annoy me too. Good thing for me my parents were always real patient. I have been blessed with inheriting thier patience as well. Sometimes I think that we all just may be aliens from a far away planet - like in third rock from the sun or something. (in a good way) Not too many things piss me off, and when they do I just close my eyes and envision ducks, or something that makes me smile. If I had a kid I think I would draw a map and just make it up and put little dots to show where we were. Visual maps are good like that...Anyways I'll move right along now......

Not too many outrageous things have happened lately. A heap of my favourite people left so we have had some celebrations and all, and today is a nice day I have decided to make a date with the ducks and my lovely room ates on an afternoon excursion.

After the Internet I"m going to see the travel agent and see if there are some tours I can do to get to Darwin, but I'm going to try to hook up a ride as my first choice. There are heaps of backpackers leaving and people are always looking for others to split costs.

In the TV room we watched this movie called The Secret. I was told that it was an Aussie film but all the people in it are American (It's based on the Aussie book though). Anyways I don't know if it's big in Canada etc yet? I wouldn't be surprised if it was because things seem to take longer to come out in Oz.

Anyways it was pretty good. It's all about positive thinking and visualizations and all that cal. It's basically how I already lived my life, but they kinda give a couple good points that are sweet and dainty. Some of the stories are pretty unrealistic though, (and I'm not a very skeptical person). At times it was very centred as well, I thought it would have been nice to have more of a Buddhist sort of approach, along with sunshine spreading. Anyways the point of my ramblings is that I think lately I have gotten too comfortable living here and it's time to move on. I will be leaving 100% in the next two weeks if not by Monday (which is four days away). I'm pretty stoked, and have decided I want to go pearling in Darwin. Doing jobs like that @ least I wouldn't be able to do back home, and I would get to see so many things I wouldn't get the "oppor-tune" to see otherwise. The other thing that it made me think about is doing thigns for myself. Lately I've been a lot more crafy and all, and I think I should keep it up and improve. My plan is that by December 2007 I'll have a creative masterpiece. I'd write more but it's top secret.

Ye-ah

Anyways after that I will head to Asia. I'm meant to meet with my friend Bryony after she is done her Harvest work. We plan on kidnapping each other willingly and having random times in Thailand/Cambodia/Vietnam.

Sometimes it freaks me out how quickly time is going and that the clock is constantly ticking making my visa shorter.

This is why I need to get out of Bowen very shortly.

Anyways that's really all I have to say

If you haven't seen The Secret it's worth a watch....

Other films I've seen that are good lately are

*Lucky number s7even

*Wolf Creek (Aussie horror film)

*He died with a falafel in his hand (Indy Aussie film - Very good)

*Dodge Ball (even though everyone has seen it but it was my first time and I liked it)

Bye now

Love
