Hey there!
For those of you who may be wondering... The reason I haven't blogged over the past two weeks is because I was holidaying in Port Douglas, Airlie Beach and Hamilton Island... Jealous? Don't be... It turned out to not be as great as I expected.
Firstly, there is barely anything to do in Port Douglas... Literally. We went ATV riding (which was fun, though [Carl]'s mum banged up her knee so we were hospital bound the rest of the day and a lot slower moving round the rest of the holiday); and we also went on the sky rail and scenic train which was really pretty but that took up only two days of the first week. The rest of the days were relatively boring...
Airlie Beach wasn't that bad. It was raining, and the pools were too cold to swim in... But we managed to spend time walking round the shops. Oh! And hearing a fire alarm, so you freak out, don't go down the lift because you don't in that sort of situation (we were in a 7 story building, and of course, on the top), walk all the way to the bottom (me with sore legs from ATVs) only to get told it's a false alarm... They just couldn't figure out how to turn it off. Good fun, good fun...
Hamilton Island was the place we were most looking forward to. So of course it rains the entire week! Buuuuut, we did end up going out for tube riding on [Carl]'s birthday (lucky); and from that day onward there was no more rain! (We're talking the third last day here...)
Overall, the holiday was okay. I guess when you expect so much from it and you don't get as much as you would've liked out of it, the disappoint kicks in and it takes the fun out of it...
Speaking of [Carl]... After almost two years (our anniversary was two and a half weeks away) we have broken up. This was completely my decision! I just wasn't happy with the relationship... I was at the point where I couldn't stay with him any longer lest I hurt him (or myself) even more... It was incredibly stressful, but we have agreed to stay as friends and I am happy. :)
Incredibly happy actually! I feel as though a massive weight has lifted off of my shoulders... Though I am curious as to how he is taking it. I have heard that he is all "mellow" and cool with it... But if I know him as well as I should, he would be falling apart on the inside... For this I feel horrible! But (as cruel as this may sound) I wasn't willing to sacrifice my happiness for his. It's fact. I couldn't continue to live that way...
To turn this blog around to a more positive side of life... I am headed out to Dreamworld tomorrow for a Physics excursion with the always entertaining [Clearly Unfocused]. :D
As soon as the "work" is done, all us two are going to do is go on the classic rides. Such as the River Rapids... Or even the Spongebob ride if I can convince her (Muahahahaha!!!). Or, you know... I could totally ditch her and go on rides she would never dare step foot on. }:)
Either way, I get to be just a little bit evil and right now I'm loving that feeling! Hehehehe
*Side Note* The title of this post is the title of the book I am analysing for my English Extension assignment which I am putting off to blog... I mean, who wouldn't put off an assignment for blogging? :D
~Live life to it's fullest~
