Splashing In Puddles of Sand

Byron Bay

I AM BACK! Here's a math equation for you:

Free internet=very long blog post!

So I'm in this travel agent that offers free internet. So here I am! The last few days have been cool! I finally left the gold coast and flew downt to Sydney. There I met up with my sis who's in australia for a couple weeks on vacation. She's been staying in Melbourne with her friend, but we arranged to meet up for 3 days in Sydney. It was cool seeing her again...it's nice to feel the comfort of family again. I hadn't really realized I missed it till I was hanging out with her. So we stayed with some of her friends from Ireland and met up with a bunch of them I already knew and had a good few nights of partying! It was fun, I felt like the tour guide, showing her all the sights--like the Opera House and Harbour Bridge, Darling Harbour, Bondi Beach, Manly, it was cool!

So then we both left and I came up to Coffs Harbour. It was a NINE hour train trip...which was delayed by an hour. I met a cool guy from Cairns on the train, we spent 4 hours talking before his stop. So we exchanged numbers so next time I go to Cairns I'll give him a call. In Coffs I didnt do much, lay on the beach really, that's about it, it's not the most happening place to stay but I needed a stop off. I left yesterday at 3, decided to take the train cuz it was cheaper...I didnt get here till 10:30. It's supposed to be a 4 hour trip, lots of problems so when I got here I was pissed off. I'm in Byron Bay aka hippy capital of the WORLD. I'm not really a fan of hippies. Or pot heads, and thats all there really is here. But I knew that before I got here so I cant complain. The place is cute but I just think I have a bad attitude, arrivign here in a bad mood sort of set the tone for it if you knwo what I mean. But I leave here tomorrow to go BACK to the Gold Coast (I know I know, I cant get enough of it!). Everyone's moving out of 'our' (I've been adopted in now!) house, so Hobo leaves on Wednesday so I have to have one last party night with him! Me and Rory leave on Sunday...she is going to Honduras for 2 months and I am going to Fiji for a week! I plan on hopefully finding a cheap diving course (everything here in oz seems to be cheaper than fiji which is a bit shit!) and the main reason I am going there is to apply for my working visa in oz. Then I come back here and start to work! I dont know where, I dont know doing what...I just know I will need money soon! haha!

So that is my life right now...same ol' same ol' really! Haha! There's been lots of drama in 7/137 (our house on the Gold Coast). It was focussed on me for a while but I got myself out of deep water when Hobo went and did something crazier than me haha. I dont know if I want to go into those stories. Basically we drank almost every day while I was there...so drama is bound to happen :)

As for the Rune (aka possible love of my life!) situation...things left on a good note. When I left I didnt have my fiji flights and was actually going to head south, not north, so it was kinda a 'I dont know when I'll see you again...' goodbye. But at the same time it was a '...but I know I WILL see you again-I'll make sure of it!' The last few days was this crazy build up, everyone expecting something to happen between us, but I knew it wouldn't exactly because I was leaving. I dont know if it makes sense but we know there's potential between us so we wouldn't just throw that away on a one-night stand. So our goodbye was sad...but it was nice. I guess because I knew I would see him again...eventually. Then with me heading back now it means I'll be seeing him tomorrow...but again, 5 days till I leave. Ahhh...timing is so gay! But who knows what'll happen in the next week...and after Fiji....

Ok so this is my super-long update ready to be posted! I'm in a better mood now...I am ready to get out into Byron and ENJOY myself! Yay!

Hope everyone reading this is having fun too!
