Five days left in Newcastle.
June 23rd, 2005 at 02:11 amPer Stan’s request, I’ll try not to wait a freaking week to upload the next batch of songs. Maybe the fact that one of his songs made the list will make him happy.
60 - Collective Soul - Perfect to Stay
59 - The Matrix 2 - Burly Brawl
58 - Stan Gable - The Goob Song
57 - Art of Fighting - Reasons Are All That I Have
56 - Aerosmith - Janie’s Got A Gun
55 - Remember The Titans - End Theme
54 - John Mayer - Why Georgia
53 - Final Fantasy 7 - Ending Theme
52 - Trans-Siberian Orchestra - A Mad Russian Scientist
51 - Final Fantasy 7 - Aeris
My time remaining is Australia is drastically low. It’s currently Thursday afternoon, I leave Newcastle Tuesday morning, and fly back to the states Wednesday afternoon. The only thing that runs through my head when I think about these is:
I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave.
There is so much here that I want to stay for. But I’ll save my sappy post for right before I leave, because I don’t want to get all emotional right now. I’ve already written most of it, cried once or twice, and tried not to think about it. Which is why, starting last night, I’m going out in true Aussie fashion. Neri and myself managed to get a bit inebriated. The escapade continues tonight seeing as Hannah finishes with her exams this afternoon. Tomorrow night we’re going out for one last night on the town, followed by Saturday’s gigantic Farewell Bash for Dutchy and Luke.
Sunday will be spent thanking God that I’m still alive and apologizing to my liver. Monday will see me wrapping up my affairs here and Tuesday it’s off to Sydney. So, if over the course of the next week, updates are sparse or slightly influenced by alcomohol, please forgive me. I’m just wanting to make sure I enjoy my last week in Australia.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to go find some grog.

A Goob farewell hey. No offense but I would be uncomfortable to see so many people upset in once place. Most likely a piss-up will be the farewell.
