Almost 22...

Well this weekend was an absolute bust. Nothing I wanted to happen happened, but oh well. I'm over it. I'm ready to pack up my things and head back to the states, but I have one more final to do before I fly home. It's been a long and crazy trip and I've enjoyed the majority of it. Hopefully this week will be outrageous. I love my birthday and hopefully I'll get everyone here to love it to. Then Saturday is Alex's birthday as well. Exactly two weeks from right now I'll be enjoying my last meal in Sydney...weird thought. So check out Missy Higgins "Steer". She's an Aussie girl and she's awesome. Love this song, just kind fits right now.
SEE you all soon
Shawn

STEER

Feel it falling off like clothing
Taste it rolling on your tongue
See the lights above you glowing
Oh and breathe them deep into your lungs

It was always simple, not hidden hard
You've been pulling at the strings playing puppeteer for kings
And you've had enough

But the search ends here
Where the night is totally clear
And your heart is fierce
So now you finally know that you control where you go
You can steer

So hold this feeling like a newborn
Of freedom surging through your veins
You have opened up a new door
So bring on the wind, fire and rain

It was always simple, not hidden hard
You've been played at a game called remembering your name
And you stuffed it up

But the search ends here
Where the night is totally clear
And your heart is fierce
So now you finally know that you control where you go
You can steer

'Cos you've been listening for answers
But the city screams and all your dreams go unheard

But the search ends here
Where the night is totally clear
And your heart is fierce
So now you finally know that you control where you go
You can steer
Year get out of the box and step into the clear
'Cos now you finally know you can steer

22???? No way, seems like only yesterday you were sitting in the high chair at Friendly's. Where the hell did the time go? Miss you, my friend, can't wait until you're home.

Love you!!
