| Three years have passed and boy have things changed. It's surreal that I am sitting here in Colorado Springs, which is where my parents moved when I was already living in Bendigo going to LaTrobe University studying Outdoor Education. I learned a lot of life lessons over those three years.
I remember when I fisrt got to Bendigo I was alone after my mom left and the first people I met were Avinash, my friend from Maritious and Zack my RA. Avinash and I were in the Terraces early, because we were both International students. Although I was also registered as a domestic student.
Avinash's first impression of me was I was a spoiled brat. Not sure if it still is, but I think not. He found out I wasn't all that bad. We had a couple of beers together and mingled with other international students. I remember a couple of people being from Norway and a few people were from Philadelphia and were in my course.One of the Norweigens was in my course also.
Then the domestic students arrived.

| Friday was my fisrt day as a wallaby keeper. It was a good first day except one of my keys fell off of the paper clip I was given and I was late for work. The wallaby joeys were adorable. There are two of them, one is an albino. It was their first day outside. They were so brave. I had them out a few times so the public could pat them. I felt so happy that I was giving each person a unique experience. I talked to so many people I can not keep track of all of them. Some came past a couple of times. I do hope I was able to educate people more on Aussie animals. I gave the albino wallaby his bottle in the morning. What a cutie and my back hurts probably just like a mom carrying a baby. I really do like this friend that I am hanging out with right now. I know we can't date though, but hey who knows I have so many years left in my life. I am so angry that I still don't have my things from Aus and my pets. There just is not enough room for my stuff here, I had my own house. I got a car yesterday. A Kia Sportage. Lovely interior, a nice green colour. I named her Freya. We are going to have many adventures together. I can't wait till Elsa comes up, I will take her on drives in my spare time. It will be her, my car and I. The three of us. Then Lucy and Anica will be at home waiting for me. My little kittens. So I have my job, my car, my cats, my dog, possibly a man. All I need is to get out of this house. | | |
| Over the years I have had many a crush on some amazing guys, but there was no reciprocation. Perhaps I was smothering. I just don't know what a good friendship is when it's right infront of my face. Finally I fell in love with this amazing man. We were inseperable and loved eachother dearly. Then reality kicked in. Unfortunately I am still head in the clouds, I don't care about money etc... It was a three year relationship. Wanted to marry him I did. Now I am single and yes perhaps I still love him in a way, but it won't work. I am wild, I need wildness, excitement. I can be serious, but I like to be happy and I need a life and things to do. I do like this other amazing guy, but I do not want to spoil a good friendship. He makes me laugh and thats something very important to me. I don't want to depend on him, but I really don't want to live my life not knowing him. Oh the dilemas a girl goes through. Both men are sensitive. Thats a good thing, I haven't met a guy who doesn't think about a girls feelings yet. Perhaps I really am lucky. Thats one thing I fear is that I will end up with a guy who is cruel. I feel wonderful when I am around this guy. I might be falling for him, but I can't the circumstances won't allow it. Plus friendship is way important right now. One thing is if he wanted a relationship, not yet, but later I would be with him in a heart beat, thats for sure. The other guy has had his time, he hurt me. He is still my friend, but we can never be the way we were, thats why I think friendship is way more important than a relationship. I want to be this comedians friend. If we did et in a relationship I am afraid of things going the same way as my last relationship. I want to be his friend forever. I wanted to be friends forever with my 3 year man too. I don't like losing people I love. | | |
| Tomorrow I am finally presenting my object that represents my writing process. If you once again look at the flying dolphin in the title you will see that I chose a Kaleidoscope. This came about, because I went to a flute choir concert with my mother and the conductor was an eccentric woman wearing a colourful shirt. She said that this was a kaleidoscope concert. Everyone got handed a kaliedoscope to look through whenever they felt like it. She said "Nobody is too old to play." She also said with kaleidoscopes if you see something and then try and show it to one of you friends they look and see something completely different. I feel like the way my mind works is like that. I come up with an idea and once I write it down it comes out differently to what I origionally wanted. The same idea, but it can never be seen in the same way I wanted it to. Every person see's it in a different way and I can't quite find the origonal meaning. If I don't write something down straight I don't remember it. | | |
| I just got a job as a wallaby keeper. Oh the irony of it all, I leave Australia just to work in the Australia section of the zoo. I should be right at home. Wallabys and Emus. I have always wanted to work with Australia's native animals, which is one of the reasons I went back to Aus. I have many reasons, but that was a huge one. So I finally get to in Colorado Springs. I did work with the natives on my internship at Adelaide Zoo, but now it's my temporary job. Fun fun fun. I can't wait till friday. I had a lot of fun at a new friends birthday party. It was a blast besides the downfalls. I hope she enjoyed it. | | |
