having too much time on my hands = having too much time to think.
and too much time to think = allowing my thoughts to get wayyyy ahead of me.
there're so many things i want to do, yet can't because of the various constraints - australian permanent residency (not like the job market here is doing anything to help me), financials, responsibilities etc.
should i do a masters in media communications? that is gonna be another hefty sum of money, but it should guarantee a PR.
should i do a photography course whilst doing my masters (if i ever do undertake it) to save time? but can i seriously afford funding two courses simultaneously? and would i have the time and energy to give both my all?
i want to be a travel writer and photographer. but i don't see this happening anytime soon. i do hope to at least become a freelance writer by the end of this year but yeah, we'll see about that.
i want to go on a work and tour holiday, just for that experience and for it to look good on my resume. but for now, can i afford this, both time and money wise?
browsing through the melb uni careers website, i saw something that is still on offer ever since my first year in uni - a sea turtles conservation volunteer program in costa rica. i wanted this for the experience whilst in first year, and i still want it now. only catch? it's 6 weeks, and approximately $2000.
to top it all off, i want a career in marketing, yet, i want my own photography studio (and be my own boss) by the age of 35 (which means i have to get experience in that field too). ACKS.
maybe i should just set my sights on something more practical for now, like getting my driver's license and planning my trip to brisbane.

the moon was bright red on friday. it was apparently so because of the reflection from all the bushfire haze. i didn't have a camera with me, much to my dismay.
i looked out of the window tonight and saw the same sight. and whee! my D700 was a mere few steps away!

according to hao, the moon is green in brisbane. reflection from flood waters?? (and hao, i'm still waiting for that photo!!!)

it has been 20 days (and counting) and i still want to go home. T_____________T
i don't want to work. i don't want to find work. i just want to tour around the world. or live on an island, rear our own chickens, cows and fish, grow our own vegetables and potato plants, make jelly for hui, grow cocoa beans for me, and find out how sugar is made.
i wish i was home. =(
