Things this week passed.
Ursh’s birthday celebration. A bit of a shindig where we took our new favourite dessert ‘Carlotta’.
Went to an Anglican church. Fascinating. I knew we were reading the creed not because of the words but because the intonation was exactly the same. There was something that creeped me out about this.
Xalapa has a fair or feria at the moment. Went on Monday night with the people from my house. Played on dodgem cars which I haven’t done for a very long time. What´s more, dodgem cars without OHS rules. And rollercoasters.
Met a guy called Ramon who wants to study in Australia.
Felt more mentally tired and not physically tired for the first time because I´d spoken too much spanish.
Watched the whole of We Can Be Heroes. We tried to embrace our Australianism by celebrating Anzac Day without an oven. So we couldn’t make anzac biscuits. Instead we drank beer and watched Australian comedy.
Developed prints in the dark room. Drank beer with the rest of the class too. Only here. Only here eh.

kind of interesting the cycles you go through jem. You’re teaching me to brace for another place. Hey that would make a good song title
“brace for another place
Whats goin on here
I love what I see but I miss what I dont
It spins my world, wanta stop but I wont
Brace for another place yeah
Brace for another place
Its gonna be strange.
Strange is weird and strange is good
Strange is strange but its my food
Brace for another place”
Miss ya jem
