2008.

It’s been an interesting run of a year, of course the rollercoaster of life being the highlight of it all. Most of it, I must say was highly unexpected. I’ve had my surprises of the year, and for all of those, I am thankful. Grateful to those who’ve been there and stayed on with me while I figured out what it was all about, and clung on together with me when everything was going crazy.Highlights: Probably the unexpected-ness of friendships made and pleasures shared, ones that will hopefully carry on into years to come. It still hasn’t sunk in that I’m a graduate.

ThankYOU. I couldn’t have done it without You;

I look forward to 2009, with a fresh perspective and expectation. We have alot of look forward to, cheers to many more new years ahead. Bring it on, I am ready.

Oh, hello.

Hmm, curious little ball of fur named; Marble.

From us,

To you(:

The year wouldn’t have been what it was without; you.

20-08.

Christmas was just round the corner, now it’s come and gone.
I’ve had a meaningful one this year. Quiet, but meaningful. I suppose it really is about spending time in the company of people you love and care about huh?
I want to post up some pictures but unfortunately I’ve been a little slack in that area. Will post up photos from the new Holga (ILOVEYOUMELGUAN) soon-ish.
Meanwhile, merry christmas, and just remember the real reason for the season (:

Somewhere else.

Well, my nose and eyes have already started running from dust accumulated over the past few months, and the humidity is, of course, taking some getting used to. Yep, I’m back on the sunnyisland after a flight that was pretty O.K. ‘cept for the super-long landing. It’s a little different this time round. I couldn’t wait to be back in my room, see my own antique desk, sleep on my mattress. It’s home yeah, but a little different this time round. I wonder why.

Some part of me is perhaps thinking too much, maybe I should just let it settle. I really shouldn’t think too hard should I?
Mmm. Okay, let’s give it a little time, a little space.

Well, time to get to bed, I am, amazingly enough, actually quite tired. Goodnight world, tomorrow I’ll wake up, it’ll all be good.

Watch.

I sit and smell the pink peony you left on my table. The scent is strong and sweet, just like you. I turn the pages of my little black book, trying to figure out when it was that your name first appeared in there. I forget, that it’s only been a few months. Seems just like yesterday, at the same time, a long time ago. “As much as love burns, hurts, kills and tears apart the deepest wells of our hearts; love is what gives us hope and the strength to live for tomorrow. People’s hearts have turned cold as ice, but as long as they live, they still love. Whatever it is they hang onto for their lives, it boils down to the fact that love is still a small flame in their very deepest.”

201208, I watch, and I wait for everything that I know will be, better than (:

It’s been.

Quite a while; so don’t mind me while I muse.

I haven’t had the chance to sit at home, on my own, without the hustlebustle all around me. Hello, it’s been a while. I’ve put on some Lisa Ono; it’s time to just be me.

It’s occured to me that the year has gone by incredibly fast and that December is whizzing by, with two-oh-oh-nine just about the say hi. I can’t figure out where all the time has gone to, or what has transpired over the past twelve months. Except that I know, full well that where I am, is where I should be. Two-oh-oh-eight definitely didn’t turn out the way I wanted it, but things never do hey? In a couple of days, I will don that royal blue regalia and get on that stage to get my cert, and then a few days after that, I’ll be closing another chapter here in Melbourne and going back to the sunnyisland.

It goes so soon,
Funny how time flies,
Keep your dreams in sight,
Through and angel’s eyes.

I’ve always wondered if you were talking about me, or if it was me at all. But I’ll leave those thoughts for a story on another rainy day perhaps; now I shall go wonder some more, while I warm my cold cold hands.

And so it goes;-

Deepdown.

Tapas and everything aside today, (the rooftop was amazing, yet again, and the weather, thankyou Lord!), sometimes I think I really should trust my gut instinct. Ok. I’m learning.

This is; me.

Standing tall.

Aside from all the graduation business and figuring out what I might be doing next year, this is what I’ve been up to. It’s just a snippet of the work we’ve done, but Zac and I have big plans for what we might call, “Project Boho Dream”. It’s not unattainable, nor unrealistic, just takes a heap of dreams, dreamers, do and do-ers to get things moving along. Never in my life would I have thought that this might actually take off. Perhaps been told too much that this ain’t a job, it’s a hobby. Look where we are now though! I’m mighty glad I got off my butt and started doing something.

It’s back to dreaming, but stay tuned for more!

Now.

When you hope and pray with all your heart; -    .
