last day in byron!
and for some reason, the past few days my lip ring decided to get infected, so i've taken it out. and i am sad. i miss it. altho, my parents would've hated it so it's probably for the best.
our hostel where we are staying is about a 20-minute walk from town (it's really cheap tho) so we've been hitching rides to and from town every day... byrons really small so it's fine, but eline bought a skirt in surfers paradise and she accidently got the wrong size, so yesterday we thought it would be fun to hitchhike to surfers so she could exchange it. omg. i've never been so freakin scared in my life. the first guy that picked us up was certifiably crazy, but he only drove us for about 20 minutes, and then left us on the side of the road... both of us were scared shitless, just standing there with a sign that said "surfers paradise", but then it was all good, these 2 surfers picked us up, gave us some beer, then they let us out and another cool guy picked us up and drove us all the way there (it's only like an hour and a half total) and we had dinner with him... it was an adventure all right. but i don't think i'll ever hitchhike again. i was thinking how crazy it was cuz it's about the same distance to nanaimo, and i would never,ever hitchhike to nanaimo. but it was fun.
back to sydney tonight, i'll arrive in the morning... my trip is almost over. i'm excited for home, but i'm also a little bit scared!!! been away for so long. it's a weird feeling to be coming home... but i'm more excited.
