Grand Return - Down On Love

It would be nice to learn to dance. I went out Friday night with Tom to his friend's farewell and was danced around the place by his friend's dad. It was quite embarrassing but in a fun way. I wish I could fly around the floor and dance like he and his wife does. Looks like a lot of fun.

Driving lessons are going well. I'm excited. I'm excited in general about living so close to Tom but the idea of driving and being at his place in 2 minutes drives me crazy. I'm all kinds of happy to be able to pop by have a swim and cook dinner with him... and for me to come home from work and him be there to cook up a storm with him again. haha My man gets me trying new things. He has awesome taste in music and consequently has me dancing along to life to his music. Cooking, dancing, riding, singing, praying together... Gush! I have been away from the internet for a while and I have so much love stored up that I can't help but overflow with it all.

I'm excited about my birthday on Wednesday. We're going to the Vanguard for some French cabaret... Edith Piaf tribute style. So much love. Going with Tom, Eddy and Sara and dinnering with these above awesome people as well as Aisha and Tharani and maybe Jason. My people. <3

I am in a good place.

I have travel on my mind, the end of the year is fast approaching and then I'll be heading off to the Philippines. I recently just got back from Melbourne with Aisha and it was really nice to be somewhere else for a while and the only thing to think about was how shall I enjoy myself today? *grins* I learnt so much about being girly and taking care of myself... I have come back to Sydney with a healthier 'beauty regime' and a greater desire to wear dresses and skirts. I can not get over the Friday night we spent at a club (my first time) in which I got so much male attention. If ever I wanted to play the "I'm average, nothing special" card, I think I'll have this memory to remind me that I'm not average at all. I don't know what I'll do with that knowledge... will it give me more self confidence? Will it make me less self conscious? Maybe in time. I really enjoyed spending time with Aisha over 5 consecutive days. She's such an awesome girl. :)


Anyway... I'm currently enjoying Bob Dylan (All Along The Watch Tower, I Shall Be Released) and Simon and Garfunkel. I feel quite old school. It feels so good to be blogging again. I find it a funny thing. When I talk to certain people I find it really easy to focus on all the good things going on, and with others I find it impossible to not talk about all the bad. Blogging puts me in a headspace where I'm comfortable and so tonight I'm glad and reminded of all the awesome things I have. Eg, Church last night was awesome... :) and having a record player in my living room and playing Charlie Parker and Bud Powell... that's awesome as well. haha Currently I'm listening to Sarah Blasko's "Down On Love". It's magic.
