Splashing In Puddles of Sand

Growing Up...

Life in sydney is good. I just got here 2 days ago, so i have to start
looking for a place to live and a job. I am pretty broke...will be
eating a lot of cereal and ramen noodles for a while! Its funny cuz right now I dont know how much longer I will be out here. A week ago I was ready to go home, I was considering just leaving. Mainly cuz I have no money. And I didnt want to deal with the stress of moving and finding somewhere to live, etc. But money always
seems to sort itself out and hopefully it will this time as well. I
dont want to take the easy option and just go home. But I'm feeling
a lot better about it this week and i am happy to be here. I NEED to
be here. Just to figure out what I am trying to get from life, what I
want out of it. And it hasnt come to me yet but I feel myself growing
and maturing and even though I cant stand up and say THIS IS WHAT I
LEARNED WHILE I WAS TRAVELLING, I know that it's changed me a lot, its
made me more wise. I understand a lot more. It has benefitted me a
lot. So that is why I am here, to learn about myself, about people,
about the world. My parents want me to go back to honduras for
christmas. My brother and sister will both be there. A few weeks ago I
said I might come home. Now it doesnt look likely. I feel bad because
I know how much they want me there but I know how much I need to be
here. I will see where I am in a month and decide then, but I think I
will be staying here. I have my visa till april, I will be here till
then I think.

I have neglected my blog and blog-readers for the last 3 months, mainly because of limited internet access while in the Snowy Mountains. But that will change again. For now at least I feel like I have more to share, which is good. Life is starting over for me in Sydney. New job, new place to live, new friends. New me?
