Sometimes I am so conscious of the fact that people are able to read what I write on here... But i try not to let it colour what I say because I want this to be an authentic record of my trip, from the beginning to the end. Well at the moment I am sakit (sick) which means that I have to take time off of work. Which means I am stressing out big time about finding the rest of the money for my flights (due next monday).... I am STILL waiting for my OS Help Loan, that $5000 would come in real handy any time now. Who knows when I will get it? I was told that it would come in last saturday but it didn't... I'm getting rather cynical about the whole thing really, everyone keeps *saying* that things will happen and then I except them and are let down.
Just found out my vaccinations will be $225 ish dollars... Jesus dont know where I am gonna come up with that money, Ive got only 5 hours this week cuz Ive got exams... And I had to take most of the weekend off, which really hurt my pocket... weekend rates are very nice indeed. All my savings were funneled into my plane tickets and application.. Getting passport stuff... etc etc. Big money, overseas travel is!!! Hopefully after exams end for me next wednesday I'll get some more shifts and then I can save some more. And hopefully this grant will actually come through! I'm gonna head to uni to try to chase it up again tomorrow.
haha.. some people were shocked by some of the things I wrote on my blog... but I just wrote it as if no one was going to read it... if people freak out at the real you and stop liking you for it, then they're not a true friend anyway =)
ReplyDeleteand about the frustrations you're having... Its good practice for when you're in indonesia.... everything takes forever and its hard to get a straight answer out of anyone.
you will completely change over there... here everything is always so structured and organized and has a schedule (well for the most part) .. over there its so santaiiiii... which is a little scary and frustrating at first.. but you learn to love it... sabar ya stay...
hahah I think you are the only friend I have that is actually reading my blog anyway :P And you've already seen pretty much all of my bad sides :/
ReplyDeleteyeah ill come back a changed person... all sabar... mungkin :P
I wrote my blog for myself anyway.. so i could have a record of what was going on.. how I was feeling what I was doing etc etc... so it doesn't matter if no one reads it.. you can always look back on it later =)
ReplyDeleteI'm not really sure about my motivations for writing... I think I saw you do it...and it was one of those moments where things just end up happening.. before I knew it I was signing up and creating a blog. lol.
