Vickiepedia

In the country of frequent droughts and no long showers; of crazy magpies that make noises like little kids in distress; of much overpriced non-unmetred broadband internet access; of toilet water that twirls counterclockwise (still pending confirmation); where somebody is supposed to get her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from Sydney Uni plus a girlfriend and live happily ever after in the end — Australia — Vickie, surviving with the help from family friends, not making many new friends, currently renting from family friends’ friends’ friends… wow, I’ve lost track of what I originally wanted to blog about.

P.S. My cheap cereal looks like hamster food, but it’s oh-so yummy, with a tinge of freedom!

And here I am! The wonderful, cloudless country in the other Hemisphere, where there’s more UV than Ozone, where July is cold and January hot, where you could almost experience four seasons in one day, where water in the toilet bowl twirls counterclockwise (pending confirmation), where Vickie would be staying for the next 4 or 4.5 years. Bingo! Australia!

The flight was mostly pleasant (but that belongs to another entry when I have proper internet connection after I find a proper place to rent *sigh*); homesickness hasn’t got me much since the parents have really helpful friends over here; AMD Diablos… that poor thing took some minor injuries (pictures pending) even with all that “handle with care” and “fragile” stickers. Otherwise, Vickie is cool.

Although speaking of homesickness, Trusty #1 and Trusty #3 must be suffering from it — I couldn’t turn them on no matter what I do! Argh! Must resist getting a new vibrator!
