So I have been back form Australia for two months now and still can’t really believe it happened. I miss it more and more everyday. But now that I have abruptly fallen from Cloud 9 my life back in the states has just slapped me in the face and left me with a burning pain. I know that everything happens for a reason but why is it that I can’t catch a breath of fresh air! I am once...

My semester here in Melbourne is coming to an end soon and it makes me sad to think that I have to leave this wonderful place. I hate that I have become so attached to people I have met here not knowing if I will see them again. We have had some great times, some that I can remember others are a little fuzzy, just to name a few:
Goon Pong: Americans vs. Non-Americans. Guess who won?

To these tiresome paper dreams...
So it’s been awhile since i have posed something on here. I can honestly tell you that it’s not because I have been doing school work but because I haven’t been doing school work. I came to the realization that life is too short and that you should really take some chances and do whatever you please.
May every situation be summed up in a smile.

Lament by Edna St. Vincent Millay
Listen children:
Your father is dead
From his old coats
I’ll make you little jackets;
I’ll make you little trousers
From his old pants
There’ll be in his pockets
Things he used to put there,
Keys and pennies
Covered in tabbacco;
Dan shall have the pennies
To save in his bank;
Anne shall have the keys
To make a pretty noise with.
Life must go on,
Thought good...

So lately i have been think about a lot if things that I probly shouldn’t be thinking about but whatev! Here it goes… Is it possible to have a relationship with a person ONLY when you or they are drunk? I mean there are some times when you talk to people only in social gatherings where there is alcohol but then when you see them the next day or the when you both are sober and you...
She Walks in Beauty
I was reading some Lord Byron today and I came across this beautiful poem.
She Walks in Beauty
She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudsless times and starry skies;
And all that’s beast of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellow’d to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray less,
Had half impair’d the...

Making Love? Do It Longer!
Okay so it has been a while since I posted anything so I thought I might get everyone up to date on what is going on. So we are three weeks into school already and we have nine more to go. I can’t believe that it’s going by so fast! But classes are good, definitely a lot more different than back home but I like it. I haven’t really explored the city much yet, but I’m going...

Beaches, Kangaroos and Wine
Hey everyone! Well it has been two weeks that I have been here in Australia and it has been amazing. I am enjoying everything that comes my way. I have yet to experience culture shock which is nice, I guess. I have been taking many pictures of the strange and random things I have been seeing around the city. Melbourne reminds me of NYC so much with all it’s light and many people walking...
Getting used the Land Down Under

Getting ready
I leave for Australia in a about a week. I just can believe that I am actually going to be leaving the states for four months, it still seems surreal to me. I know I’m going to have a blast but I’m also going to be thinking a lot about my family and how thing are holding up here in Upstate New York. i sometimes feel like I picked a bad time to leave because of all the family issues...
