Farewell, Brazil

So I sit here, just past midnight and i shall be leaving back home tomorrow night (6pm) is my flight.

Its been a crazy 2months here in brazil.

Do i feel like leaving....

The answer is Yes. I feel like working again. I didnt get that last time i was over here for 6months....but this time i do want to come back home.

Its kind of strange, because i always thought i would be coming back with Angela, ie flying with her back to Sydney. Unfortunately she wont be, but her visa application is being processed and she has a ticket to fly here on the 11th of May. So if all goes well with her visa (it was a flipin´nightmare) it will be good.

If she does not get a visa, im happy to say i have done everything i can and will have to move on. I dont want to do one of those long distance relationship things.....i did 6months without her which wasnt too hard...but to do that again....it seems......challenging...not so much for me..but i think more for her.......time will tell i guess.

Im finding it hard to type because i have an acute case of conjuctivitis (well thats what mum thinks it is). My eyes have been red for the last 3 days and producing way too much crusty/sleep around my eyes. The upside of this is though, when kids ask money from me here in Rio and i look them straight in the eyes and say no, they listen.....and walk away quite quickly.

You see i look like a crazed drug-addict looking for the next hit......so people dont bother me.

In other news, Ill be staying at andys for a few nights (prob till monday) whilst i try to sort out some kind of accomodation. I spoke to Kat tonight and hopefully we will be inspecting some places on saturday in artarmon. I want to be around chatswood area, for work reasons and because im a north shore snob and like trees. The other thing which is kinda on my mind is if angela doesnt come then the places we look at are going to be a lil pricey but affordable. 2 bedroom place for about 450 / week which is fine for 3 people (angela, me, kat) but for 2, its a little on the pricey side, but yeah affordable. Thats even if we get these places....

Im also looking forward to hadas´bday thing on saturday, be good to see everyone. Im just hoping im not too jetlagged (i leave her on the 29th and arrive on the 1st) and can enjoy a few drinks.

Damn, Brazil. Fuck i cant believe im leaving...Tomorrow im sure i shall be emotional....its always more so, when your travelling by yourself...then with someone. I have spent every night except 2 (1 time i got angry and told her to go away and the other she was with her family) sleeping with Angela and its strange not being with someone again. But its definitely needed i think for both of us...but still....a little lonely. Its good to be more independent again.

Oh well i better go before i get dengue.
