You read it, the 28th was incredibly stormy! So much for the morning looking so beautiful! As per usual, I job-hunted in the morning; watched the news, made breakfast, and read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows : ) That kept me occupied all day. At noon, when I had hoped to walk into town for some more dinner groceries and movies, the lightning struck. Great crashes of light and sound filled the dark grey skies; rain poured like a marathon from the sky, deafening splatters on the ground. Book in hand, curled up in a duvet, chocolate cookies at my side, I was not hard-pressed to stay inside. I did take my camera out to snap some photos of the storm, but that was my only outdoor excursion.
I finished the book at around 6:00 and picked a couple movies from Mio's small collection to watch. I mashed some potatoes and onions for dinner and sat down to watch Love Actually and How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days. Mio arrived home just as I was starting the second movie, but she went to bed early.
Again, not an incredibly eventful day in paradise. I'm feeling quite restless here and can't wait to get moving. You may wonder why I'm not getting out more here, but it's rather like living in Sydney, BC... beautiful, but small and isolated. And with a $10.60 pricetag on getting downtown and back, I'd rather save my money and stay indoors. So, that's what's happening for now. I move into a hostel soon, so I'll be living right downtown for a few days. That will hopefully be a great opportunity to meet people, make plans, perhaps get a travelling partner, and finally get going!
Until then, stick with me, I'll have awesome and interesting things to write about soon : )
xoxo - Katrina
