May I Have Your Attention

[Valk]

Today, I received an email from our beloved Soserious. I wanted me to post it at CC so here it goes:

well, its just about 2 weeks ive been in australia now.
my stomach has been a bit messed up everyday.. and my body
tries to get fat and stuff cos im eatying 9 hours off, heh, youd
think thatd be nothing new tho for it. im now in Airlie beach, stayed in a shitty nasty place lastnight and before that was in hervey bay.
lots to say but will try and keep it brief since this pc wont allow me
to copy my email just incase it doesnt send!
if its ok with valk or anyone i may send some updates through him
because i cant use cc on these computers. i saw a email from cc about my birthday, thanks guys! :) but not opened it yet.
actually its been mostly shit here, i been pretty depressed and on a
3 day tour of fraser island i didnt swim once- not in any of the
beautiful lakes. i just sat on the edge with my jcket on and feeling daydreaming i was cuttin at my neck or somethin and bleeding
into the sand. other shit like that too.
however, i did fly in a small light aircraft over te island for 20 mins
with a few others, pretty cool. so at least i can say i did something
fun on my birthday.
ive been mostly withdrawn and really depressed.
damned wet dreams too at the worst times/ places. grr, stupid
body.
actually been thinking of you all a lot recently, like everyday. since
im mostly travelling on my own,
i mean i make some friends and then move on. but mostly ppl arent that
interested cos im being a bit self isolating. kinda wanna come
home actually. but im out here nearly a month longer!
damn, anyways im gonna send this email now because it might not
send.

luv ya! soserious.

ok, so yeah, im here in Airlie beach, got here yesterday morning
after about a 12 hour greyhound bus up from Hervey bay. crashed
out at a nasty hostel, grotty as hell. im gonna check intyo another
later and hope its not worse! or bedbug infested! *shudders*

actually guys im a bit stuck. i came up to Airlie beach to soon and
im just sitting here like wtf do i do?
i wanna do the reef thing and maybe stay a night on a boat but i
still got a few weeks to use. i dont wanna get back to uk and say
like `ahh, f@@k! why didnt i ...? ` you know? but what is ...? any
ideas?

the flight over was long and not so good (2 flights, )
uncomfortable and felt freakin lousy and tired all the time. many
times i been tired enough to sleep travveling but some parts of me
just wanna stretch as soon as i fall asleep- if you know what im
saying. very awkward and 2 wetdreams in the last 10 days . jeez, i
swear it really not helping

so anyway, i did fraser island tour. rained more than half the time,
but it is a rainforest.. saw one shark briefly, saw one dingo and saw
some bats.
saw little as it goes, possibly the moody weather.

flying was weird, awesome at first but then im like IM IN THE AIR.
scary.
also travveling at 1000 km an hour..
worst though is that gas apparently expands a lot the higher up
you go- very uncomfortable :( and jeez did my eardrums ever feel
pain. i seem to have fairly sensetive eardrums. fine now, and after
a day or so but they REALLY hurt going up and coming down in the
huge jumbos. hearing was a little reduced for a day or so after too
(as youd expect if any trauma to eardrums.)
more stuff to mention but not enough time now really.

walking around hervey bay looking for fish and chip shop (i like
the whitefish as i feel it helps with recovery.) and two chumps on
bikes were tailing me, buzzing me and trying to intimidate me-
bleh same shit i get at home. 20`s or something both of them. they
even waited outside a shop i went into then followed me out. but
they didnt know im used tyo that shit and after a while i stared one
down and they basically fucked off.

fraser island was beautiful, had a little fun but restricted myself a
loit. also my hypoglyceamia thjing or whatever it is screwed me,
my energy kept dropping and i was fighting not to drop, but i
refused to quit.
pathetic really heh.
anyway, like i said i do think of you guys a lot, im gonna go off to
look for some food in this tiny town.
catch y`all later.
and once again thanks for the birthday email ive yet to open!
luv ya!

cool thanks for sharing Valk!!

It's not the bets time to be in Australia now because its winter here. But it is towards the north of australia so it should be pretty warm.

You can get total dimwits in small towns in Australia. Same thing in the US. I hope ss has fun. You can go for boat rides where they let you play with dolphins. Actually there should be some beaches in queensland that ahev dolphins visiting regularly.

Tell him he needs to clear his ears while in the jumbos. Close mouth and cover nose with fingers then attempt to blow out of the nose, works everytime. Or chew gum on the plane.

Nice to know he's surviving :D

Nice to know he's surviving :D
Yeah but I wish he had some company. Its pretty lonely when you don't have someone with you to share the experience. But on the bright side he certainly has a story to tell in the future. Like I went to Aus and survived. Next trip hes coming to Africa. Yay! :D
