We’ll today makes it an official 3 days ive been messed up… It really sucks being disabled because of your own decisions.. i’ve spent a lot of time sleeping and praying that when i wake up i will be completely healed lol. it hasn’t worked yet…but i guess i’m getting better… i cant use like two of my fingers and my left eye is almost shut all the time… it’s quite the distraction but what can you do.. it doesn’t help that i have a black eye either.. just reminds me that it doesn’t look any better. On an awesomely-light note, i found out today that i will be going to India in december till like february, I’m really excited about that. The culture shock is going to be crazy.. not that the culture shock of aussie wasn’t crzy but this will be totally different. I’m going from the Chicago city-boy life to the now, No wearing shoes or shirts coast life, to who knows what in India.. life can definitely be an amazing journey if we’re always reaching for God in the end.. I can’t wait to get better… i miss going to beach at like 10 at night or chillin at the skate park..or long boarding around the town…sooon…sooon.. BIOOOOSEEE
So this place continues to be beautiful and very exciting. The 5 min walk to the beach doesn’t seem to ever get old but u actually have a funny story„ We’ve started orientation week and its really cool but the other day i was long boarding which is a skateboard but a long one used for getting around. Everyone here has one so i joined the club…well it’s wise to learn what your doing before you decide to become a daredevil. I had a pretty bad fall…. scrapped up my arms nasty„and had to get 4 stitches… my face currently looks like a balloon.. its ok i guess.. a little embarrassing but what can you do. Miss all my family and friends wish you all could be experiencing this with me. i would write more but im in pain… P.S. its still amazing here
So I’m finally here. I was traveling for a total of 25 hours including the lay over times, but i must say….although i haven’t started the actual program yet, the land alone is worth the trip. It is amazingly beautiful here. Every street and house has its own garden of assorted palm trees. Every window in every house is open and simply looking out of it puts you in direct view of some sort of exotic tree or plant. The weather is amazing here in Maroochydore. I know summer has only begun here but i hope the weather stays like this, the perfect combination of cool and hot. Every street twists and curves and the land is far from flat!! It’s like riding a roller-coaster, whether your in a car or cruising on the long boards. The coast is literally a 5 minute walk away. I’m not used to this but i can definitely say I’m loving it!!! I’m a city guy so I have to get used to the way these coast boys dress. And no one wears shoes here. lol. The atmosphere, the people, the views, the amazing sounds….Maroochydore is an amazing place. I can’t wait for what lays ahead. If God sent me here simply to appreciate the beauty he created that would be fine with me….but i know there’s more. The people I’m staying with seem like great people, I’m excited to get to know them better. I can’t wait to learn to surf.. its going to be sickk!! There’s also a cool skate park on the actual beach..so i might have to learn to skateboard again. hahaha. PEACEEE. till next time
