Lost and Found..

Sorry for the lack of posts life is hectic here in dear old Sydney.

The weather's been a lot warmer and not so cold (remember cold is anything below 20C) and it's been sunny. Yeay!

On monday it's a public holiday, the Queen's bday. The Queen of England , who I am told does not celebrate her bday on this day nor do English people have a public holiday on Monday either. but who cares! what's important is that we get a day off....

Haven't made any plans yet, but I will do my best to spruce up the blog and make it a little prettier..it just looks so sad and dusty with this blogger template!

One of my dearest and bestest friends has lef to go and live in Vietnam...I miss her a lot as she's one of those cool chics you can tell anything to and has a super relaxed attitude to life, we have a lot in common , although she's a lot braver than I am and I hope we can catch up soon.

I watched an episode of Lost last nite which was interesting to see how much of Sydney there is on it, what's funnier is that the only way they identify a character being in Sydney is by showing the opera house.... hmm..fair enough I guess but there is so much more to see. Interesting nevertheless, as there's an Aussie girl on the show and many characters who's life had come to Sydney before hand...

I always worry that no one really cares about Australia too much and its more of a holiday destination for German tourists than anything else and it's not taken seriously but it's good to have found Sydney on a super famous Tv show such as Lost.

Now only if they brought Desperate Housewives here and Jesse Metcalfe woud come over..hmm then my life would be complete!

Are you living your plan B?

I heard this on the radio today and it made me think...how many people are doing what they're doing because Plan A didn't work out..or is that just life?
I thought about me...I always wanted to finish uni and live overseas for a while..but I also wanted to finish uni full stop, after so many years there it seemed never ending. When the opportunity came to work for a huge multi national company and start a new career so quickly I took it...also the fact that I'm with my boyfriend makes me want to stay here, and my family my friends of course...I'd love to venture overseas but doing it alone is kind of daunting. Maybe it was a lot easier to dream when there wasn't anything holding me back....but now , when you think about it, it's a lot harder to do this! maybe if i didn't have so much holding me back here in Sydney I would have ventured out..I certainly didnt' expect to be getting the first job I went to before my final exams finished, and certainly never thought I'd be working as a Tech writer.
A what? well more on that another time. It's a great job, i have a really good boss who teaches me a lot and I've learnt more than I thought possible in the few months that I've been there.
So I am not sure if it's plan B or the plan I always wanted, but I thought that running away overseas was also a good way of escaping from achieving everything I thought I could achieve...
The reality is, I'm happy with the way things are at the moment and what I have achieved, I didn't think I would have but I worked hard to get here. So let's call this, I'm living my draft copy, plan A and B were the ones I was going to live, if the original didn't pan out. But so far it has....let's see where it takes me.
If not I'll turn to Plan A and maybe B, I know there's lots to experience out there.
