memories
i've been reading over old entries... i realise i've had this journal since 2004. over 3 years. i've put so much in here.

reading over how i used to be was like looking into the life of a different person, who had all the same interests i do. it's really surreal and strange, but i am so happy i have a record of all these things. i not only can read the entry, but remember how i was feeling at that time, and what else was going on which i didn't care to write about publicly. it's also made me realise how poor my english skills have become outside of high school. sad!

i'm so happy with life right now. london feels like home. of course, i wish all my family and best friends were here too... but i don't want to go back to brisbane at thsi stage. i feel like i'm a bit trapped by study. i know i need to finish my degree (1 year), do honours (1 year), and maybe phd (3 years). potentially it will be 5 years before i can come back here. i'm thinking 2 might be all i can take though. why did i have to start liking london now, when i have such little time left?

Yeah, I read back on my very first entries from back when I started mine in spring 2004. Seems like so long ago! And I agree. It is like reading about a different person's life. Except you remember all that stuff and you get an insight to what this other person was thinking and feeling at that time...because...hell...it was you!

I hear nothing but good things about London. In less than a month, I will experience this alleged joy for myself!

Except the weather sucks right now. I was talking to my bro, who is there, via video chat online, and he was sitting in his flat all bundled up in sweaters, blankets, and a scarf because it was like 37 degrees (Fahrenheit) an it was raining. I love the rain and all, but EEK! Not looking forward to that!

thing is though, i moved here without knowing anyone. for the most part, english people are fairly stand-off-ish... so it makes it difficult when you're new here and have no one to see. now i pretty much have no time for myself!!! catch 22!

and the weather is shocking. the summer over here was about the same as a winter back home... and it's really confusing for me because i'm used to having summer now... i keep thinking it's going to get hotter! eep!
