The Return to Oz

I have been exceptionally lax for ages, mainly because I didn't like the US and was depressed. But now I am feeling much much better; I've left the US and am now in Australia. I very, very rarely felt like the US was somewhere I would like to live, California was too clean, too fake everything looked a little but like a Hollywood movie. It was all too bland for my liking. By contrast Melbourne feels real; it has graffiti, green parks, good public transport and great free museums. I love it. It also has Oz, who naturally enamours me to any place.

A few weeks before I was due to come to Australia Oz and I broke up because he was a bastard, anyway my mum tried to convince me to go back to the UK, but I am very glad I decided to ignore her and come regardless. Oz was very apologetic and we got back together. I am currently staying with Oz and his parents, but I move to my own place tomorrow. I'm enjoying living with Oz, but I'm looking forward to having my own room for the first time in nine months and I'll be living pretty central Melbourne.

Anyway, nowt that exciting has happened so far, but I'm having a great time. I'll try and fill you in when I have a real adventure.
