today things started to feel real & feel good. first ill back track… i got here thursday & slept most of the afternoon & evening. even though i slept for something like 12 hours on the plane. friday i went to school, tried to get some stuff done, didn’t achieve much since i have to pay them first. i tried to get a phone w/o luck and then i ate at some veggie place across the street from kristy’s. had some jasmine rice, mixed 2 curries and a mango drink. about 30 min later i started to feel sick. i attempted to go out friday nite but came home at like 10 because i was having severe stomach cramps. basically it felt like someone was taking my intestines & pulling & tieing them into knots. great. i also felt that way saturday, enough that while i made it out to town during the afternoon, there was no way i could go out that nite. this am (sunday) i still felt bad but at least i was able to eat something (other than drink ginger ale). i had a slice of toast & then attempted small bites of the bfast kristy made.
since it was a beautiful day today (mid 30s/90s i guess), i wanted to go out. clare & i took a walk, hung out in the park & then went to see a movie downtown tonite. i managed to drink a banana honey frozen yogurt shake which ultimately (i think) made me a lot better. it was 31 degrees when we arrived at the outdoor theater, when we left, at 1130pm… it was 28 degrees. yeah baby. this is what im talking about.
it was great sitting out under the stars, watching films, wearing a tshirt & skirt and finally feeling better. the city was kind of off to the side of the screen so u could watch the neon. i forgot that melbourne neon is mostly blue. it makes the city look cool. i could like this.
