In Summary
Is it the end already?

This makes me really sad, today marks the end of our adventure, and the mark of returning home to everyday life. I have been, and I’m sure my family would say the same, been in a fantasy world of fun and adventure, stress and responsibility free. I’ve had the most amazing time here; it’s been surreal just walking through the streets in another country (or time). But like all good things, it must end. And sadly, it ends now. In two hours we will journey to the airport, in four hours we’ll be boarding our plane, and in twenty and a half hours, we’ll be back in Brisbane, ready to get back to the usual routine of school and, well, life. The last two weeks have to me just become this massive blurry blob smushed into one hell of a day (my Big Day Out as Dad calls it). As much as I’m going to miss all of this, I miss my friends more. From talks I’ve had with friends it was limited or non existent, and to be able to converse/see them again will just make my day. Which must sound weird coming from me, I mean, I’m apparently the anti-social being who dwells in the premises of her room, only venturing out for nourishment. But I’m only human, so I’m sure between brooding and eating my brain decided that I should need a social life.
So what am I doing currently on my last day here? Well, writing this entry and watching Postman Pat in Italian. Mil turned it on and Ains insisted that we continue to view. From what I can interpret, this episode is about a genderly confused bull that wrecks havoc on the small town in which Pat lives, so it’s Postman Pat to the rescue!
So this is it, we’ll be off to have breakfast in ten minutes so I have to part with the laptop (shock horror). Seriously, what did you expect? I’m always going to go with food over technology, it’s how I’m programmed. Well, good bye for perhaps the last time in this blog site.
