It’s been 2 years since I wrote this entry and so much has happened since then. I moved to Sydney and lived in Manly, a beachside community on the Northern Beaches for a year and lived in a spot so close to the ocean, you could smell the salt in the air and hear waves lapping from the window that brings in the seabreeze. It’s terrific, wonderful and totally unforgetable. I’m not back in the midwest upon the completion of my assignment in Sydney but will never forget what it’s like to be near the ocean. I’m going to move back, soon….

Strange as it seems, I’ve closed this item thinking it’s not worth pursuing and recently had someone kissed me on the dance floor which was quite bizzare. I guess he was caught up in the moment and he thought it was a good time to go in for a “snog”. Needless to say, it was unpleasant and not to mention unwarranted. This is definitely not how I would imagine it, it’s definitely not at all romantic or sexy, but left me with a bad taste in the mouth (pun intended). Picture is not depiction of actual occurence
I seen many sunsets in my lifetime, however my first sunrise was in Miami this past April. It’s absolutely unreal, full of anticipation and when it rises over the horizon, it’s a blink-and-miss-it moment! I would love to see the sunrise on a morning of one day on the East Coast and fly to the West Coast to see the sunset on the same day. Now THAT would be a challenge!
