This pic brings me happiness, it's from my b day
Well I haven't seen the most of you for two months and to a small few it has been far more time and a few others far shorter. Skype is one of the most amazing things ever that can be invented. Internet calling service that allows me to make international calls at 2 cents a minute. I put $10 on it about a month ago and have 4$ left and have made many international calls for different lengths of time, grandma's I will call you soon. So I touchdown in Melbourne today after spending a week in Byron Bay, Byron Bay after being there for a week was a surfers and vacationers getaway similar to a cape cod of sorts. Small town, couple nice places to go out and eat, main attraction is the beach, and was just real relaxed. So after seeing these places and may be completely wrong to some of the locals but I would compare Sydney to a L.A. and Melbourne to a Chicago, I like Melbourne already because I've seen the dodgy towns and am in the heart of the city right now which isn't much to brag about so far but I haven't been around yet. I hear it's a more down to earth place here and more diverse because that is lacking everywhere I go, someone tried to tag me as Tolkien, as in of Southpark as the Tolkien black guy. I immediately squashed that comparison but it is true, I am the only black person in many of the places I go which isn't a huge difference from back home but just the idea that I can't see any black people is kinda weird. Me and river were talking and I was like what would you call a black aussy person and here are some funny titles for people that we created, African Australia, Fijian Australian, African Italian, Native American Indian, or simply Indian Indian, Japanese Chininian, hahaha and so on. Well my plan should start rolling here pretty soon as far as looking for a job and finding a place, I might already have a place here pretty soon and as far as a job I start searching on Monday and am excited about starting my new little life here in Melbourne. Think about it, I have stopped traveling and have moved out of state by myself, I never thought I could do something like that back home. I mean I wanted to move to ATL, to Cali, to Arizona, but never actually saw myself doing it, was scared about not being able to find a job or go somewhere I know no one, but I will have a whole new life here by the time this 6,7 or 8 months is over. I'm real excited about that, oh also met Rivers mom and she is real cool, already started helping me and all that. I'm gonna really like it hear and won't be alone for the holidays at all
