hehehehe…. 😛

I’m definitely going to Ben Folds! I’ll see you there dude 🙂

john: Hmm. Invitation is open. Friends and e-friends, as long as ur a decent person and not some seedy dodgy old bugger. 😛

Though I am looking for ppl to go see Jack Johnson with in particular, coz so far, I’m going it solo. 🙁

mockkie: Err… you are being sarcastic right??

riss: Yay! Definitely see you there! Do you know if he’s touring with a band this time?

I’ve moved around a few times in my life. Your mood just is normal because even though your excited about the move theres always lil things you’ll miss. Plus your probably anxious to get settled in the UK and close to family and friends so your thinking about that and maybe its making your world seem alone over there. But you do get out to alot of gigs he he.. You definitely have a love for music which is cool. I saw you play piano too. 🙂 I learned piano young because my mom plays. I always wanted a synthesizer to make create music their pretty cool. My older sister teaches music and does the music festivals for public school kids. I’ve worked 12 summers at http://www.dard.com theres always concerts bands there. What do you think of kelly clarkson? She seems to be hittin her stride this year. Also Tom Barlow “Barlow” is a good friend of mine. He is only a one hit wonder so far he he.. Not sure how much North American bands your into? Seems like you have a nice job there, i hope you get something as nice in the UK. Glad to hear your site will still be around 🙂 talk later ~dave~

emm..

more facetious than sarcastic..
😛

but i’m half serious about norah and vanessa mae! 🙂

Dave: Wow you leave long comments! Hehe.. its good. 🙂

Anyway, my feeling of displacement is really more to do with the prospect of leaving my life here – a big part of me doesn’t really want to leave. I’ve always been quite a homebody, happy to live at home, in one place, surrounded by family and friends. I’ve never really wanted to travel. And I’ve never been good at leaving things I love. So I guess the prospect of moving away from home for the FIRST time is a little scary for me… hence the feelings of aloneness. The family and couple of friends/aquaintences I have in the UK really don’t match wat I have here – I don’t know my cousins at all, haven’t talked to them in over 15 years. And the couple of friends who are over there are not exactly close friends.

Yes, music is one of the big loves in my life. The other is dance. 🙂

Kelly Clarkson is good. Good pop value singer. I really like her first album… but her second one doesn’t really do much for me. If I wanted rock I’d listen to the real stuff. 🙂 Hm never heard of Tom Barlow.

Anyway, wow now I’m leaving long comments on my own blog. This is a semi-blog in and of itself.

mockie: Facetious eh. Big word. 😛 Yeh Norah Jones I wouldn’t mind seeing.. but its way too expensive. I don’t like paying alot for gigs.

I’m don’t go to a lot of gigs at all… but I’m going to Norah Jones! Luv her stuff!
Yes NJ was quite expensive….

*smiles* thanks for answering all my questions. All i can say is i’m very much like you in that i like to stay in one place but everywhere i’ve moved i kinda just create this new happy home u know and surround myself with a new atmosphere. But its sometimes very much the same because you create that atmosphere that makes you comfortable where ever you go. I think the biggest differences might be the weather, and your friends. But from what i can tell your easy to talk to and people like that so u should make alot of friends. As just one example i lived in Ottawa one year and it was too far from where i grew up here and my parents, then i ended up in London Canada for 2 years it was 2 hrs closer but yet a lil far but even so i really enjoyed both places, then when i moved to Toronto for 3 years it seemed sooo big but yet Ottawa did too, but after like 2 weeks it really seems no different than anywhere else just more to explore right. I really loved Toronto but for school had to go to Oshawa for 2 years and Oshawa is like the armpit of Ontario he he.. Its its nickname but still u know i made it work and then returned to Toronto because i found thats where i’m most comfortable and just 40 minutes from my parents and friends where i grew up in Wasaga Beach and i could balance the two better in Toronto. But the moral of my story is sometimes in life you just have to try new things and you have to feel confident and know that you can always return to Australia if things don’t go the way you want in the UK. But until you really go there and give it a chance you won’t know that so you almost need to go to find out right? Its too bad you couldn’t take a short trip there to visit and get a sense of it it feels right. But you seem tobe a person who could build what you have in Australia there thru time. Its a lil easier for me because were talking moves of 5 hours 3 hours 2 hours and your changing countries but the moral is still the same. Many have visited here from Australia and said after the first week i’m going back, only to six months later stay for over a year. I think its more just the “unknown” that scares you abit because like you said your comfortable there and you want to be comfortable in the UK too. Honestly i think your feelings are normal but ultimately its up to you to decide whats best for you. Once you decide that and put your heart into it you will create a new home where ever in the world you go because you know what you like so u find a place a job friends and eventually your okay 🙂 feel better? 🙂 ~dave~

Almost forgot “HAPPY VALENTINES DAY” hugggss

kaz: sarcastic is just a big a word as facetious…
both have 9 letters… 😛

Get Crackin on your resume!

🙂

I have been reading your blogs for over a year now-can you believe it!And I have to say although you’re like 7 years older than me,I am really quite proud of you.You seem like you’ve come along way in that short time.You’ve matured and become alot more self aware.
The thought of moving half way across the world,without anybody would scare most people half to death-but you owe it to yourself,because life is short and it is what you make it.Remember home will always be home,but you’re going on an adventure baby!Get excited!!!!

Kaz, I doubt I’d be able to say this to you face to face, but I’ll miss ya. Keep us up to date on your blog! and don’t get too depressed, OK? All right, that’s more than enough for a personal blog where everyone can read what I’m saying.
