Ok. It's like the neverending story with this whole Australia thing. Anyway, a small window of opportunity has opened up to make this dream of mine come true. An article was published today that says, that there is an actual place here for people to go and apply for a work visa and travel to Queensland to work. Apparently they help out with all the paper work.
So.. guess where I'm going tomorrow?? Exactly!! I'm so excited and at the same time I am scared out of my mind about this. I don't want to get my hopes up and then end up back where I started. I know that that is not the right attitude, but I can't help it. However, I don't think that I'm scared because it might not happen, I think it's the opposite.
You know when they say "be careful what you wish for, you just might get it" Well, if I get this, apart from the fact that I'm going to be broke (hahahaha) I'm going to leave my life and my family behind. My plan, when I get there, is to stay there, so that means I won't see my family for God knows how long. They are all I've got. But I have to do this. I need to live my life. If not there, then somewhere else. It is definitely not going to be here. Believe me, I have tried, but something just isn't clicking for me here.
WISH ME LUCK BLOGGERS!!!
I'll be back soon with an update.

Ok, let's deal with the luck thing. Wishing you every luck in the world.
As to the family thing - yes it's quite a wrench to leave the comfort of your family but, at the risk of sounding like the most trite cliche in the cosmos, the world is much smaller and phone/email/Voip/IM/air travel all mean that you can keep in touch so much better than ever before. That and the knowledge that they still love you and care for you. It's tough, but it can work out ok if this is your dream.
Good luck, buena suerte, y buona fortuna! Maybe three languages will help you out!!!
Well, from someone who has taken that plunge already, you gotta follow your heart and do it! Your family and friends will still be there for you....just a little further away!
