Hey babe,
Well today was a pretty good day, except for one thing... The hot water isn't working :|
So I got up this morning, jumped into the shower and squealed like a little girl as the freezing cold water assaulted my body. If I wasn't awake then, I certainly was after that shower!
Mum had gone shopping with Pa, so I was left home alone for the morning. I made myself vegemite toast, and because we didn't have any juice, I had Dr. Pepper soft drink. The breakfast of champions!
I then wandered around the house for a bit, rather bored, so I offered my services as a director to a few people and it looks like I've got a few gigs shooting some music videos for bands coming up!
I then sat down at the computer and wrote more on a new screenplay I've been working on. It's not great... But hey, at least I'm writing something! I will make it good eventually.
Mum got home around lunch time and I had meat pies for lunch whilst watching the movie "Hobo With A Shotgun."
Dear god, sweet mother of Jesus that was a bad film! I can't even begin to explain just how bad it was... I mean sure it was an exploitation film, but Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez made much better exploitation films when they did their Grindhouse double feature!
Anyway I then proceeded to teach myself Pumped Up Kicks by Foster the People on ukulele after seeing a mate's cover of it for her audition for the tv show The Voice.
I'm getting pretty good at it too! Not long before I'm a ukulele virtuoso (if there is such a thing...)
After dinner I wrote my review of Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol after Chris pestered me to do it. So I posted that to my blog if you want to have a read of that as well!
That's it for today, a pretty relaxing and fulfilling day for me!
How's France babe? That is if you're still there, and not on a plane home...
I called your mum and I'll be at the airport with her to pick you up tomorrow night! I can't wait to see your face Ciara, I've missed you like crazy these past three and a half weeks... I love you more than words can describe my girl.
So until tomorrow, safe journey and bon voyage!
Love always,

Day 18 of my diary for this beautiful girl called Ciara
Well hey there gorgeous!
Well today was a pretty chillaxed day, woke up and called you but again your phone didn't work... So please let me know when I can call on a home line!
I just pottered around the house most of the day, just relaxing!
I wrote more on my screenplay and watched a DVD or two.
And that is literally it, some may say 'what a boring day', but to me, it was very relaxing! And that's all that matters right!
When Lochy got home he was complaining about some kid harassing him on the phone, threatening to beat him up, but Loch didn't know who it was. Of course, this kid was a bit of an idiot and didn't put his phone on private, so Loch had his number. I called him up, pretending to be some guy from Sydney that got a 'missed call' from him and that I needed to know who it was as I was expecting an important call about some business. And this kid gave me his name. What a total idiot! So now Loch knows who it is, in case this kid tries to hurt him, we can send a nice little law suit his way!
So that was an exciting little bit for the day, got to use my acting skills for something too! :P
Tomorrow is the day I find out my ATAR score for vce, which is exciting. But at the same time, I doubt I'll get much sleep tonight... Kinda nervous... Oh well what will be will be hey!
Anyways that's it for today, should probably get some sleep, I've got work all day tomorrow. Hopefully we talk soon, I can't wait to tell you all about my scores!
Let me know when I can call babe, I really really need to hear your voice Ciara. I love you girl.
Love always,

Day 17 of my diary for Ciara
Hey girl, how's it going? I hope you're having an awesome time in Milan!
I can't wait to talk to you Ciara, let me know when I can call and I shall!
Well what a day today was! I woke up at Corey's place, tired as all heck. I should've gone to bed before 4am... Anyway I made a sandwich for breaky, grabbed a Gatorade from the shops and I was set!
I headed down to school to meet with a teacher to discuss a project he wants me to work on for him. He'll be getting the school to pay me money to shoot a short documentary he can use in the classroom! How cool is that?!?! My first real filming job and I haven't even hit film school!
After that I went home and I caught up on a good hour's worth of sleep whilst mum was out shopping with Pa. When she got home I had some leftover lasagna for lunch and wrote more on my film. I've had a couple of people read it; my media teacher from distance ed, who gave me some really good tips, and my drama teacher from flinders who absolutely loved it!
So that's going well!
Later in the evening I went into frankston to go bowling for the Civic staff Christmas party. I got one of the highest scores out of everyone! I don't know how... I haven't bowled in god knows how long, but I got two strikes!!! While we were there, I played Taylah from work in a game of pool. She was winning, I had three balls to sink and she only had the 8 ball left. She sunk the 8 ball and the white ball, meaning I won by default! Pure luck wins Josh sports yet again! Hahaha
Afterwards I met up with Dad to go and see the advanced screening of Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol. Damn it was a good movie. I really enjoyed it! The only downside was that some idiots came into the cinema half way through and made an awful ruckus, but they got kicked out nice and quickly, so it all worked out well!
And that's my day, pretty exhausting! I'm ready for bed now, I need to start getting to sleep before midnight... Oh well I'm not at school anymore! But still, my body needs the rest.
I'll call you at the usual time on your mobile tomorrow. Hopefully it works, but if not please let me know if I can call Pietro's house or not, because I really need to hear your voice Ciara. I had a bit of a meltdown and I just need to hear your voice.
I love you so much girl, more than you will ever know. I can't wait to see you again!
Until we speak again, !
Love always,

Day 15 of my diary for Ciara
Hey babe!
Well today was an interesting day indeed! I awoke to call you, but of course you didn't answer as usual, so after trying again I resided in the fact that you probably won't pick up.
So I went back to sleep, but not long after, I was awoken suddenly by the ringing of my phone!
I quickly snatched it up, thinking that it was you calling, but alas it was not... It was my manager (sigh) asking me to cover a shift at work this afternoon.
Of course, I said yes, I need all the money I can get!
So because of that, my plans to meet up with some mates in Rosebud we're cancelled because by the time I went down there I'd have to turn around and come back home!
So I sat around, played some playstation and wrote some more! I then looked on the Hoyts cinema website and booked tickets for my dad and I to go and see the advanced screening of Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol on Wednesday night after my work Christmas party.
So I'm very excited to see that film!
I then headed down to work this arvo, my first shift on my own! It went pretty smoothly, apart from the computer crashing several times... Stupid thing.
Holly from work and her boyfriend came in to help me with closing up later tonight, which was good just to make sure I hadn't missed anything!
And then I headed home where I started my Mission Impossible marathon before seeing the new one on Wednesday!
That's about it really for me today!
How's Milan babe? What's it like there? How's your host family and Pietro? Hope you're having an amazing time over there girl!
I love you and miss you lots! I'll call at the normal time on your mobile, but let me know if I can call his home and I'll call there instead if that works better!
Well I'm off, beddy byes for Josh!
Love always,

Shameless Promotion
Hello to all of my avid readers,
This is a bit of shameless promotion, but I think you should all check out my YouTube page and watch my short film The Golden Rule.
The film was made for Year 12 VCE (final year high school) Media class as my major assignment and I was given an A+ (31/35) for it.
Dan (played by Nick Jones) runs a successful drugs syndicate at his private school. He has decided to get out while the going is good, but what happens when his dealers don't agree with Dan's retirement plans?
