::Up And Away::
Tomorrow I meet my new future. My life and the lives of those around me may change forever because of a series of possible events that may follow my boarding call for my plane to Sydney. I've looked at my life, my city, my friends and family and have realized how incredibly lucky I have been during my 21 years of life. I've accomplished tons, I’ve seen lots, and I have felt plenty. Bust out the apple cider, here is to the New Year and my new life, wherever it is! Hurray! Happy New Year Everyone.

::The Angry Ape::
I took a stroll through the L.A. Zoo today. I entered the zoo enthusiastic and excited to see the animals housed there. Surprisingly I left feeling as if the animals had been gypped; that the association of beige uniformed zoo workers had imprisoned the wrong species behind bars. Though the hoots and jeers of tourist continually taunting the noble and sophisticated collection of animals did aid in my sudden re-dose of animal-enlightenment. Truly though it was a series of thoughts inspired by the Great Ape Exhibit that prompted images of havoc and destruction of our small shared space of earth. I'm not sure if it was the giant creature's sad gaze of despair or his look of mass frustration that prompted my thoughts. Maybe I'll refocus my camera, take some pictures of reality, and attempt to find out.

::Mumbai::
My chances of getting into UNSW seem to have improved. Professor Lang, head of the program I am applying too, replied to another of the two thousand emails that I have sent him. His words were encouraging. Now if only the folks I have asked for recommendations would get on the ball, then I could be done with this process. I've already begun asking other folk for recommendations. I don't wanna blow my chances because someone else couldn't take 15 minutes of their time to write a letter. I'm a bit frustrated. I'm used to not being able to depend on others, but it is still sad to think that I am the only person I feel I can totally depend on. Though I do not cast shadows on those who have pulled through for me in the past of course; I'm just not surprised when those who I think will come through, prove me wrong and don't. Oh well, I'll get over it suppose. Maybe in another 15 days when I land in Sydney. I wish I was there now.

::Merry Christmas Everyone::
Today I read Queen Stacy’s blog. She talked about how she couldn’t wait to be home with her family and friends. Why don’t I feel that way? Is it selfish to want to have my loved ones with me here in my new home, away from insanity and boredom? Though I do very much miss the late night trips to Norms and the long drives through the cityscape with my closest of closest friends. In a matter of months I’ll be living large across an ocean, will I miss home them? Will I sit at home helplessly missing Stacy yelling at “fucking dick lickers” as we ride down the boulevard? Will I yearn for Patrick’s wonderful and offbeat sense of humor? Will I wonder how James and Richard are doing, guns to their sides? Will I ever call Cece or Ann? Will there be any more midnight runs to Rite-Aide with Brian or late night chats with Rye? Will I start checking out cuties with Joe? Will I go clubbing with Mark instead? Will I complain to Sam? I don’t know. Stacy I miss you.

::Official Assessment From the Crown::
Princess Brian, Ruler of the Clairol Kingdom, officially failed to fashion-accessorize or color co-ordinate the royal attire on 30 November 2001. He should hang his head low until the next half-off sale at the far off land of Bloomingdale’s. Pity him!

::The Watch::
Today an ex. came to visit. He is one of the two boyfriends, out of three, that I actually loved. It was nice seeing him. I even changed t-shirts. While talking, it came out that he might take courses abroad in Russia or maybe Spain next year. I told him I was moving to Australia.
We had a hard time maintaining a relationship living miles apart, now we'd be attempting to stay friends while living in different countries; separated by oceans and continents. Will things change? Will I loose this fantastic person forever? Maybe, but only I let that happen.
When I came home from walking him to his car I ran into one of my residents who had just fallen out of a relationship. Just a week ago she was in love and soon she wouldn’t be. As we talked I glanced around her room and fixed my eyes on a "GWTW" calendar. There stood Scarlet O'Hara, fire and ice personified, stoutly speaking "I won’t think about this now, I'll think about it in the morning. After all tomorrow is another day." I think I'll go to bed soon and see if she's right. I think she will be. Tomorrow will be another day. The Earth completes one rotation every 24 hours, go figure.
