Remarkably it this has been
the longest gap between posts since my departure from Australia. I don't know
if it's laziness, or the inevitable that my adventure slowly drawing to a close
that I don't want to discuss it.
It is almost if I don't
talk about it, it won't happen. How it is happening, so I'll fill you in on the
past three weeks.
First of a BIG MERRY
CHRISTMAS to everyone! I hope you were all very blessed, as we celebrate the
Birth of Jesus Christ! I was blessed enough to spend my Christmas with a loving
Scottish family in their brand new old ginormous beach front view house in Salt
coats. A strange name you think, well yes, salt because it use to be a fishing
village and a large trading sport for salt, and coats because that’s an old Scottish
word for cottages... The salt was sold from the cottages i.e. salt coats.
It was lovely feats, where
I recovered and embraced holy into their lovely family life! It was typical UK
day: rainy and cold, however great because well that day it was around 42
degrees in Bunbury, W.A.... I think I prefer the cold.
Catching my sixth ten hour
bus trip home, I settled in for a good sleep and the a busy day ahead as
that night my best friend Kristie was arriving from Australia! Then the next
day Melanie from Germany arrived.
It has been so busy
celebrating New years in London, exploring all the must see London attractions,
resisting purchases that I know I have no weight allowance for.... oh the hard
times in life!
It's been busy but
fantastic.... A pity but Kristie seems to have caught a hopefully 24 hour
bug... fingers crossed she'll feel better soon! Otherwise I'm preparing for
exams next week, then packing up straight afterwards… Shipping out on the 21st
of January to meet the family in Singapore. Before hitting up Bali and then finally
landing in the red dirt of Australia…
I have a feeling that this
year is going to hopefully be a little more slow paced, with the simple joys of
life... I wan to soak up the sun, because I think my legs are almost
translucent... Kick the brother’s butts into gear and do some super
relationship counseling with God!
I've also been considering
what I'm going to do once I finish university this year... SO many ideas
churning around... I'm thinking of moving back to New Zealand for a little
while to live with the Gramps and... Garner myself a graduate trainee position
in the mines... move to Asia... or America... start again really. Does that
make any sense at all? Or perhaps do the one-year teaching diploma and become a
teacher.... Go to bible school?... Open up my own hostel or travel agency?
So many ideas, this year
will be a full of planning working and simply enjoying life, because all things
can sure change pretty darn fast...
Lots of love
Jayllee Elizabeth
