Been a long time....

Just realised last time I blogged was in March this year. I've been busy working - doing the on-call life and studying towards my masters' degree. At the moment I'm watching Looking for Alibrandi. I remember seeing it at the cinema with my mum when I was in year 6 (back in 2000) and thinking how things would be in 6yrs time when I was in yr12. While I didn't have any huge revelations in yr 12 (2006) a la Josie Alibrandi, it was a year that I grew up and began to understand the world a little better.

We always have times where we seek something, whether it be truth, knowledge, change, ourselves, others. I think that we are all like Josie sometimes.

I had the movie on VHS and now I don't have a VHS player to watch it with, so I got the DVD!

I liked reading Melina Marchetta's other novels - notably Saving Francesca and The Piper's Son.

In terms of travel... in 58 days I'm off to Japan with the boyfriend! I'm pretty excited, 21 days there with a week in Tokyo, then 4 nights each in Osaka, Hiroshima, and Kyoto before 2 nights in Tokyo then home again.
