Today is sunny with occasional intermittent cloud. I'm being kinda lazy but mostly due to my head feeling somewhat vague. The mood of a day is a lot like the weather. Sometimes you know a stormy day is approaching, other days it hits totally unexpected. Today I feel the sun.

Moving around so much this past year has me thinking a lot about what is most important to me. I no longer see money like I used to. With money comes the freedom to travel so there will always be a need for it in my life. Not attempting something out of my comfort zone purely because I risk losing my savings is not really an option anymore. I see money as more of a ticket to having new adventures. I think this is partly because I am so damn happy with my relationship and money can't really buy me anything better than that.

Ok enough about money. I focus on that way too much because I think the world is focusing on it way too much. People say they will be happy when they have more, do the things they want to when they have more. To me that doesn't make sense. Why wait to be happy? The way I see it, why not try new things in the hope that you'll discover something along the way that could make you happy. Changing your life doesn't always cost a lot.

I'm lucky, but I'm only lucky through trying new things. And being unlucky in the past has made me realize what I've got now.

People are so important in life. It's always come back to this for me. I'm adjusting to Sydney life in a new apartment and looking for a job. Having friends to chat to right now as I sit here is what is getting me through most days. I know I have to push through the discomfort of new situations to get the most out of them. The biggest thing I take from change is looking back and reflecting on how well I coped. And then I use this new confidence to deal with my next challenge in life. I can't imagine not having something to look forward to. Boredom means that I don't want to know exactly what or who I will go or meet in the future. I just want to keep forging ahead in the hope that it will be beyond my expectations. All the friends I have so far are.

There's plenty to be scared or anxious about in life. It's such a great feeling when you overcome something you were scared of. It's a big fat smile on the little sun face on the city you're currently in.

And that's it for today's weather update. Fuk knows what tomorrow will be!
