LOVE GOLD COAST!!!
Want to live here now.
Dont want to go back to Chile!
This is the most wonderful experience of my whole bloody life!!
I can tell you I'm a better person now. And just because of this trip (INNER POISE + OPTIMISM = BETTER PERSON)
Actually, now I am an assured, receptive and responsive woman of substance. My sense of self comes not from my worldly achievements but from within. The way I see life is completely different. Now i've got a new brand WIN - WIN mentality (very helpful)
I've been responsible and hard working my entire life but since I live here I'm twice responsible and hard working. This experience devides my life in two stages: before Australia - after Australia. The opportunity Kyna gave me to come and stay here for a year is... I cant even find the words in spanish to express what I feel. It's amazing, marvellous. I am so grateful, dear, for everything! All the things and love you and your parents have given me all this time in Down Under! How can I repay you?
Brisbane, as i said, is marvellous! But now am at The Gold Coast. Want to live there, as well. Havent seen many chinese and asian people here. It seems that most of QLD people are like aussie - aussie (UK, Irland, Scotland background), dunno. Maybe I'm wrong, but that doesnt matter. Who cares, anyway.
All the coast from Surfers Paradise till Miami Beach is built up. Amazing! Self is very impressed. Bloody Australia, makes me feel so sad, coz this ruddy lovely country is so good to live in that self is suffering everytime thinks has to go back to Chile and leave Australia (maybe forever, who knows...)
Why do you all aussie people have to be so nice, polite and respectul? AH!?!? WHY?!? It's your fault that I want to stay longer! But I cant. Blimey!
Finished Bridget Jones's Diary today. It's one of my fav books. But the spanish version is soooo diferent. Think translator wasnt very talented at all. Hmmm. Wish I was a translator. I'd be such a good one. Pretty sure the translator was a woman, from Spain, 25 - 30 years old who didnt understand the scent of Bridget.
Love Gold Coast.
My temptations are now: Handbags!! But Casual Handbags, not posh handbags (Self is a very simple person)
Very proud of self. Didnt spend any money on clothes at all. Only on 2 lovely handbags, and food. Maybe too much food (but necessary to keep self alive) Hmmm... and Cappuccinos (necessary to keep self alive, as well), buses, train, hostels, souvenirs, museums, turistic places, camara, memory card, mp3 Player, etc.
Gosh. Bloody level of english! It's so bad. Feel stuck, not improving at all. Why?? WHY???
Love to swear in spanish when anyone here can catch the half of what I say hehehehe. OH!! remembered i havent gone to the church since... since when?!? OH, 2 months ago! I am such a bad catholic person!
Anyway. OH!! Gotta go. Have to check out tomorrow morning. Must visit Coolangatta Beach before I go to the City centre.
Hmmm. Chocolate croissants and Date scone... Hmmm. Missing Bakers Delight??
No...

I'm back. Went for a walk. Stupid me. Didnt spend any money on silly things because didnt take any money with me! I was so hungry. Realized i had $5 or less. ARGH! Went to Kirra Beach and everything was closed! Except for one Café. But what could i buy with $5 bucks? A muffing? Yep. Didnt like it. Two much chocolate. Needed a Cappuccino but didnt have enough money with me. Felt very stupid.
Still hungry. Went back to the hostel, picked some money up and went to the petrol station to buy something to eat.
Eating some scrambled eggs now. Having some nice english breakfast tea. V. tired.
Gaaaaaaaaah!. Something crept next to me and then climbed the walls. Was a mini mini reptil. Very weird, isnt it? But I am getting used to it. Cockroachs fly here, it's so disgusting. Dont mean here, in this hostel!! Nop. Where I live, Canberra, have seen these insects flying like butterflies, Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
It's great having some time for yourself. Self can think about future, but without getting obsessive about it!! Not this time, promise. This is my first night in Gold Coast, YHA. It's not a good one, though. Pool is the size of a bath! And the dorms are a bit... Hmmm... Wont stay here longer. Moving out to Surfers Paradise.
Have no one to talk in spanish to, hurrah!! I miss it, though! But it's great, anyway. Wondering if my family and friends are missing me. Havent talked to my sister for a while. Forgot to take my internac. card with me. Miss you so much, Pon.
Ah! Have to wake up very early in the morning. At 6am. Will go for a walk to Kirra Beach and swim like a dolphin. Come back here before 10am to check out. Will go to Surf and sun, S. Paradise, as I said. Hope my things are ok. Dont have a safe place where to put my suitcase, no lockers in the dorm. Self must be careful always.
Miss Kyna and my aussie parents.
YAY! I'm not waking up by mydelf before 6am anymore. Was very annoying. Goody!! Excellent progress. That means I am feeling relaxed, finally.
I was getting obsessive because of the weather. Was very cloudy and rained a bit in Brisbane...
"GAAAAAAAH", i thought, "wont get tanned if the weather is like this everywhere". It's cloudy now. But it's good, Not very hot at all. "Mild" weather. Maybe 27 degrees. Dunno. Kirra Beach was delicious!! The best beach i've ever been!!
Love my new bikini. And my skirts.
Oh, and my new handbags... but that is it. Can't spend my money on that anymore.
Still developing my Inner Growth and win win mentality.
