so, there have been some interesting developments these past few months... especially the last few weeks.
I have bitten the bullet and bought myself a one-way plane ticket to melbourne, australia! see that? the south-eastern tip of the gorgeous country?? that's crazy exciting boys and girls!!! I am outta here in just over a month! january 15th to be exact! leaving you all to your deepfreeze climates and runny noses and waking up extra early just to start your vehicles and scrape the ice from the windows! off to hot hot hot climates! gorgeous beaches! wondrous waters! sexy accents! and good good times! yes indeedy... but my reasons for going there are more than just these superficial ones I've noted here. I actually have some pretty important work to do there! let me explain.
remember FCF? of course you do! haha well, it has undergone a sort of "reorg" wrt what it wants to accomplish and how it will go about accomplishing. having said that, FCF has decided to fundraise. there is a myoozik festival planned for March 18, 2007 where all proceeds will go to the ACCEPT Foundation - another charity based out of australia. ACCEPT plans to build and run an orphanage in the "beach" town of Cambodia, Sihanoukville. this orphanage will be home and refuge to approximately 60 children, both disabled and those living with HIV/AIDS. the proceeds will do such good!! I am so excited to be a part of this...
oh yes, by the way... I am going to be a part of this! anything I can do to help plan and organize this thing is just fine by me! so I'll be staying in OZ until just after the Good Seed Festival. I am so stoked about that!!! getting to know a part of the world so well, not being the average tourist, to be a part of such an amazing endeavor!!! it'll look good on my CV too! haha I just told my bosses here at my current minimum f-en wage job of my upcoming departure. a month's notice! pretty nice of me... it's gotta be done though! I am so much more than a café server... and while I'm in one place for so long, I'm for sure going to look for a job that would be willing to pay cash since I don't wanna waste a one-time-only visa on a 2 month visit. so I will definitely keep y'all posted on my trials and tribulations in this new adventure upon which I am for sure keen to embark!
AUSTRALIA! FUCK YA!!!! heehee :)
stay tuned, boys and girls and and everyone in between and beyond!!!
