I can't believe i'm writing a BLOG. really maria.

I feel like an idiot. i'm writing a blog haha.

The story goes on. . . . .

Adelaide to Port Lincoln to Darwin.

When i first arrived in Darwin i didn't know what to expect. I guess i expected the worst. The weather, well i had no idea how to prepare myself. Walking out of the airport doors was certainly a shock that's forsure. I didn't have a job, i had a suitcase with my life in it and me. That's all. Nothing else. I now understand the term ' My life is in my suitcase' cause that's what it's like, literally. I guess it didn't matter because even though i was so out of my comfort zone, literally cried all the way from Port Lincoln to Darwin, left one very special fella behind .. . i knew that i was doing something special, for myself and no one else. I wasn't doing it to prove anything to anyone. If anything, i made this move to prove so many things to myself. To figure out who i really am.

I think so many people don't go out of their comfort zones because a) They're scared b) They literally can't or c) Someone has told them that 'you'll never be able to do that'.

if someone tells you that you can't do something, prove them wrong.

two months later, here i am at 2:57am on the 8th of April writing about my life. Who would have thought this would be where i imagined myself a year ago. Never did i think this would be where i'd be.

After 2 months of being here i have worked at a irish pub/ topless bar. Yeah, i didn't think that's where i would be working a year ago either. Rest assured, i didn't actually work in the topless bar. I worked there for a bit over a month  and recently left after getting a job at the Airport, which i love.

So here i am. You're up to date with how things have worked out. I'm chasing something much bigger than just moving from one state to the other. Anyone can do that. There is no part of this blog that makes me different to anyone else. This shouldn't be inspiring, this is for the benefit of others to relate, read and mabey learn something. I really don't know what actually. This year is a year of putting myself in the deep end and figuring out how to swim, by myself, without having no one to cling on to if i sink to the bottom. What i mean is that i want to be able to do this on my own. I know i have family, my amazing friends all over Australia and so so so many people that would take pages and pages to fill with all their names that i can rely on at the drop of a hat. I know that. I appreciate that i'll never be able to thank these people enough. They are my rock.
