So... what's been happening? Well since last time we spoke I've pretty much just been drunk haha. Okay, not all the time, but it's been a LOT. I let myself have some fun before I leave and yeah, that's what came from it. I've had so much fun the past two weeks, going out, eating out, hanging out. Out out out. Out from home, I haven't spend much time here at all.
Any interesting stuff.. hmm. Well I've been on a little roadtrip just out of Adelaide with two friends one day, just to see some cool stuff. The coastline here is so beautiful, aaaand we saw dolphins. Holy crap I'm in love with these creatures, they just seem so happy. They make me happy just watching them haha.
That was last week. After that we had dinner and drinks at work. Vege burger with bacon, it's soooo good. I could seriously eat one right now since I'm basically out of food. My dinner consisted of two pieces of toast with tuna on top. As boring as it sounds, it was actually quite good. But nothing beats a vege burger, that's for sure. Soooo, I have to get one before I leave Adelaide.
Wednesday last week we went to the beach to have a bbq. It was really really nice, and afterwards we went for more drinks at the strath. It was Carolines birthday so we celebrated with champagne and cool people hehe. Thursday I had work, my last night shift. It was a looooong one and after that I met up with people and went out again (again again again).
Sooo basically that's what I've been doing. Not that interesting, but a lot of fun for me haha.
All of a sudden I realized how close I am to leaving Adelaide, and I suddenly had to count the days remaining to actually fit everything in. I had to plan to go see Jen and Aldo one last time, which seems crazy. I haven't seen them for more than a month and suddenly I'm leaving in like 10 days. Blaaaaah. I'm gonna miss my Australian family so much. I don't feel ready to leave yet, I just wanna stay for a bit longer haha.
This weekend will be my last shifts at The Elephant. If there's something I'm gonna miss it's working at this place. The most amazing people you can imagine, and I've just had so much fun. It's rare that you find a job where you actually love working there, but that happened to me for sure. These are the people I have to thank for giving me the best 5 months here! I wish I could stay and keep working with these guys, it's been some funfunfun months. It makes me so sad thinking that I have to leave that haha.
I don't know if I'm going to post anything before Christina and I start our trip. She'll be here in a week, and then we're off to Melbourne. We're gonna stay for a couple of days in Adelaide enjoying the Fringe (a festival that's on for a month each year), and then out adventure begins!
I'll make sure to update when I can but it depends on access to internet and all - either way I'll write our experiences down and post them here some time, so you wont miss out! I can't believe this may be the last post I do from Adelaide. I must say this half year has surprised me so much.
It was nothing like I expected. It has been harder, easier, more fun, more giving, more learning, more surprising and waaaaay better than I expected. That wasn't how I thought it would be coming here. The first month and a half wasn't as I expected, it was so hard. Now looking back at it, I'm so glad I pulled through. It really means a lot who you get to talk to and spend time with. These people I've met have made my trip the best I could ask for. One I don't want to end, and one I want to come back to as soon as possible. And that really says a lot. As confusing as it's making my life right now, because I'm torn between two places, as good has it been to me. I'm so glad I did this, it will forever be one of the best things I've ever done for myself and that's why I'll be back. It's a part of me now as well, if that makes sense?
Anyway I love this place, and I will miss it and the people here so much. I'll be back as soon as I can, I will keep telling myself that, because it makes it feel better and easier haha.
Now it's time for another adventure, a new one with an amazing friend, and I'm sure we'll get so many experiences that we can barely cope! I'm so excited. I'm so sad. I don't know how I feel, but either way it's good. It means I've had an amazing time, and that I have some fantastic weeks ahead of me. Yaaaaaay.
And here's some picturesss
