I got into Applied Science at QUT

I am fluctuating strangely... between being depressed about the possibility of not going to uni because my parents want me to defer for a year, everyone leaving and starting ahead of me, and then being older than everyone in my classes and not knowing anyone. And I am still jobless, and actually hardly see the point of a year off. I will be bored and lonely and probably still without any work, considering where we live has the highest youth unemployment in the state.

And then on the other hand small things make me happy; I bought a blue dress with white spots; yesterday I walked down to the corner shop to get a loaf of bread and everything was sunny and smelling like summer flowers; it took me only 20 minutes total to get Jarrah's birthday present, which is a record for present buying for me. This morning the garden is full of birds and they are singing... the hills have strangely disappeared into a smoky haze; perhaps there are fires out west somewhere. It's hot and bright and very still, not normally my sort of weather at all. Brisbane is probably the wrong sort of weather for me, I prefer Melbourne and it's opportunities to wear hats and scarves... but it is *very* far away even though I have relatives there.

Eh.
