Thoughts so far
It's hard to describe the Sydney culture. Its diversity is amazing. Much more so than I expected, and seems much more real, more accepted, than back in the States. There's a genuine kindness to the candor in the locals once you get pass the traffic road rage or the aloof business environment. People here seem to know how to enjoy life, slowly but surely. They embrace a carefree mentality I seriously envy. Maybe because it's really like another world down here, away from all that worldly political drama. And speaking of drama, I've gotten a good taste of human nature at its fakest, and disappointed as I may be, its my American peers who never fail to prove to me how immature and egocentric one can be. I should know better than to judge. Give them the benefit of the doubt I try to keep telling myself. But once a pessimist, no point in seeing the optimism. But then again, I also met a lot of decent people, who seem to uphold my hope in humanity. It's got to balance out somehow. Opposites create one another. And I realize my writing sucks right now. Maybe it's because im exhausted from my weekly cubicle life or because theres still plenty of alcohol in my system. I really dont have energy left to finish this post..so until later
