Dear Sydney,

It's not you it's me. Well we can call this one even. These past 3 months have been great! Don't get me wrong I love the time we've spent together. Some of the best time of my life. But I'm ready for change now. In fact I'm eager. I would leave tomorrow but I have to wait at least another month. So we still have some time! One last "hurrah" as they say. What do you reckon?

I've made a list, a few things I want to do before I go. I should mention I don't even know where I'm going yet. I heard if I go to Darwin any job I get qualifies for the second visa! Oh yeahhhh I didn't mention that part yet.. well there it is! Yupp! One more year here in Australia, though not with you , you'll always be my first. My first city. Sydney can I say it. I promise I mean it. Don't let this confuse emotion on the notion of my departure..but... I love you. There is definitely  chemistry here. I just need to see more, do something different. Get out of the city for awhile. I reckon it'll be good for me. Actually great!

After my 88 or so days my plans so far include living in a van and collecting CD's. I thought you'd laugh at that one! Seriously though. I should have enough money saved to buy a van and get it on the road. Then from where ever I am I'll pimp my ride and plan a roadie! So you might see me again in the end. Than again a little piece of my heart will always be yours regardless. Pffftt stop you're making me blush. As for collecting CD's that's serious too.. not too many. But I like to listen to full albums lately and being on the road it'll be just perf. Last week I went to the vinnies in Campsie, when I bought my skateboard and bought 2 CD's. I'll call it a blind date because I just judge by the cover. No shame in this case. I read the song titles and pick! roulette! So both CD's ended up being  like heavy rock alternative. Not horrible , I like everything, but not at all what I expected. Which is half the fun!

Anyways let's make my last months here extra special! Hey Sydney, don't be sad!! It's just time! Eventually it gets us all.

Yours Truly,
Raisha
