Day 19 of my diary for Ciara

Hey girl, well today was a pretty awesome day!

It started off with me getting a text message at 7am this morning with my ATAR score for VCE. I am very happy with it, I got a 67.55, and considering the year I've had I'd say I did rather well!

Then later in the morning I had a lovely chat with you on the phone. I then walked to work while chatting with you. Ciara, you have no idea how much hearing your voice meant to me. It was the high point of my day by far :)

Then for the next six hours from 10am-4pm I worked around the shop, serving customers, taking deliveries and helping out the air conditioner guy who was fixing it. Oh and we got new uniforms! They're not great... But better than the crappy one I have at the moment!

After work I grabbed some maccas for lunch and headed home. My feet were killing me, I mean really sore for no reason. So I sat back and watches part of season one of a show called 'Arrested Development.' It's really funny! I recon you'd like it :)

Then later this evening after dinner Nick came around and picked me up. We then headed down to his place, wandered through Rosebud, along the beach and then watched some Simpsons.

That's my day really! I didn't do much, but a great deal happened!
Thank you again for chatting on the phone this morning babe, it really made me smile to know you're having an amazing time over there!

Like you asked me to I'll call again in the morning here, but maybe a bit earlier so you're not as tired!
Let me know on Facebook when works best for you and I shall call :)

Well I better head to sleep, it's kinda late here now... Well early... It's half past midnight, so either way it's bedtime for me!

Until tomorrow, adieu my darling girl, I love you Ciara.

Love always,

Day 13 of my diary for Ciara

Thirteen days! Nearly two whole weeks since you've been away. I miss you so very muchly! Come home already!!! Hahaha But seriously, I hope you're having a blast over there babe :)

Well today started off with me waking up at Nick's gran's place in Mornington, we crashed there after the party last night. We got up and drove back to rosebud, but in the process, nick showed me this awesome abandoned skate park! I took lots of photos on his camera so hopefully he uploads them soon.

We then picked up his sister and force her to Balnarring. While we were over there we checked out the old submarine in Westernport bay and went to the museum about it. It was very cool! I'd love to be able to go out on it, but alas it's well out in the bay.

I then got a call from Taylah from work at 3pm saying "Hey Josh, you do realize you're starting at 3pm today right?" And of course I thought I was starting at 4pm because my manager told me I started at 4! So we rushed back to my place, I quickly got changed and raced off to work.

Taylah left early so I was in charge of the shop until Ali came to work with me. But Ali was running late because of a wedding dress fit out or something like that, so I was in charge for two and a half hours! It was so much fun, I can't wait to be able to work by myself once I'm fully trained!

Anyway once Ali got there we were pretty busy all night, so that kept us preoccupied. I had Nandos for dinner, which was very nice for a change. When I got home I watched the last Harry Potter movie with the family. It was so good!

Anyway that's basically my day, it was pretty fun! In other news I've nearly finished fixing up my screenplay and I've almost finished writing the music video!

But enough about me! How's Europe?!?! I bet it's amazing and you're having the time of your life there! Is it today you get to meet your host family? I hope you're enjoying it have :)

Anyway it's nearly quarter past 1am so I should get some sleep... Oh who am I kidding? I don't have school anymore! I can stay up as late as I want!!! Weeeeow! But sleep is important though, so I'll end up asleep pretty soon I'd say!

I love you Ciara, and I miss you lots girl. I can't wait to hold you in my arms when you get home :)

Love always,

Day 8 of my diary for Ciara whilst she is away in Europe

Hey baby!

Before I start off today's diary, I forgot to mention in my previous blogs, and it cannot wait until tomorrow... Happy 8 months baby! Can't wait to see you when you get home and hold you in my arms.

So today was a pretty good day over here! I tried to call you in the morning, but alas no reply was to be had! (Insert sad face here...)
So I shall call you around 6.30am tomorrow morning like you asked me to! (Insert happy face here!)

Today I pottered around the house for a while, I played my PS3 game Skyrim for a bit before I headed off to my friend Tim Gordon's house with Nick & Alex Gates to record our first single for boysQuad!
Tim basically lives in the bungalow at the back of his house, which is very cool. It's like his own personal bachelor pad!
We spent the majority of the day there, just recording away, which was fun but hard for me because my throat is so sore... Gotta love being sick! Oh well that's what medicine and panadol is for!

Once I got home from Tim's it was about 6pm, so I was just in time for dinner. We had shepherd's pie, which was delicious. For dessert mum made a cake, except she left it in the oven slightly too long and it became rock solid. I mean you couldn't break the thing with a sledgehammer!

But that's about it really, I've been writing a bit more on my screenplays and yeah!
I cannot wait to hear more about your travels in Italy tomorrow morning, but until then it is time for me to hit the pillow.
Goodnight Ciara, I love you so much and I miss you like crazy girl! Stay safe and I hope you're having an amazing time over there.


Love always,

Day 7 of my diary for Ciara

Bonjour madamoiselle,
Parlez vous Francais?

Well that was a different way to start off today's entry!

This morning started off with me calling you a few times and it not quite working out because you were traveling. But eventually we were able to talk, and oh did it help to hear your voice. So you're headed to Venice now! How exciting!!!

Far more exciting than anything I've done lately... Sometimes I think to myself why am I writing about absolutely nothing? But then it helps me to keep sane while you're away!

After I got off the phone to you, I went back to sleep and didn't wake up until nearly midday! I feel terrible... Headache, fever, sorest throat and I can't stop coughing! But I'll survive, as always! I seem to get sick a lot...

For the majority of the day I just toiled around the house, not doing much really. I then got up some initiative and brought myself a PS3 game to keep me occupied. So far so good, it seems to be working!

Then this afternoon I had indoor hockey, we won by about 8-0 which was awesome!
I then came home, had dinner, played some more playstation before heading to bed.

Such a demanding day!
Well, not really...

Anyway how's Europe? I'll call you in the morning around the same time as today, about 7.30am Australian time.
I can't wait to hear your voice Ciara, I just need to hear you and just talk, I'm not doing so good today...

But enough of my moping! I hope you're having an amazing time babe and I can't wait to hear all about it next time we speak!

Until then, I bid you adieu.
I love you Ciara.

Love always,

Day 6 of my diary for Ciara

Hey gorgeous girl,

Well today started off incredibly well, I was awoken at 6am to the sounds of my mobile ringing. I picked up the phone and saw it was from you and for the next ten or so minutes I chatted with the most amazing girl I know. She told me about Europe and the magic of the place, and I just listened in awe of her travels and experiences :)

For the rest of the day, I really didn't do much. No that's an understatement. I did bugger all! I wrote more on my film for a while and tweaked parts of my older one, trying to fix up the terrible sections, which is the majority of the screenplay... But yet I persist!

Later in the afternoon I got a phone call from Tayla at work saying that I needed to come in early, so I rushed to get ready and bolted out the door. For the next six hours I worked at the video shop, helping out customers and generally working. Ali taught me how to close, so not too soon I'll be working by myself. How scary..!..

When I got home I tried to call you, but got no answer, so I'll call again at the same time as you called me this morning. So 6am Australian time :) can't wait to hear your voice Ciara, I miss you so so much!

After that I crashed and watched a DVD before heading to bed to write down my diary for you.
And that's about it really, a very, very bland day for me! Except for the phone call from you that is :)

How's Italy? I hope you're feeling better and the tummy bug has gone away :) I imagine you're having the absolute time of your life over there!
I can't wait to talk to you tomorrow babe, but until then, stay safe and I love you beautiful girl.

Love always,

Day 5 of my diary for Ciara

Hey there good lookin! What's cookin?

Ok that sounded really seedy, not intended at all ;D

So today when I was getting ready in the morning to leave Nick's place, I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I picked it up and saw it was you calling! Hearing your voice and what you had to say about Europe was amazing, it really made me smile to know you're having a great time over there!

After I got off the phone to you, with a grin from ear to ear, I jumped on the bus and headed home.
I helped mum out with some chores around the house during the day and watched a couple of DVDs. I didn't work tonight because I'm covering Kaine's shift tomorrow because he could only work tonight. So I went into work anyway and hired a movie called 'Hanna' and a PS3 game called 'Saints Row the Third.'

When I got home I heard my mobile ring and I picked it up and saw it was that familiar number that made me smile. Hearing your voice for a second time in the day really made me happy, you have no idea how much it means to me to just be able to chat with you, even for the briefest of times :) I miss you so so much Ciara! When I see you at the airport, be prepared, I may accidentally suffocate you from hugging you so tightly! :P

Anway, I spent the night home alone because the family went over to my uncle's house for dinner and I was just so tired I couldn't go. So I watched the DVD, played the game and had 2 chicken pies and veggies for dinner.
Wait what? Did I just choose to eat veggies?!?! What is the world coming to?????

So now I'm heading to bed for a well deserved rest, I'm absolutely knackered! I'll give you a call some time tomorrow, I'll wake up early in the morning so I can catch you before you go to sleep :)

Goodnight and have an amazing day girl. I'll talk to you very soon! Thank you again for calling, it really made me smile :) I love you Ciara <3

With love always

Day 4 of my diary for my beautiful girlfriend Ciara

Hello my beautiful girl,

Today was one heck of a day for me! This morning, Nick and I drove down to Bushranger's Bay at Cape Shank. It was absolutely beautiful, the sun was shining and there wasn't a dark cloud in the skies. After a bit of a hike, we arrived at the beach where we explored and climbed up on this massive rocky outcrop where the waves were crashing over the edge. I must take you out there when you get home, you'd love it so much Ciara. We could take a picnic out there with us or something like that! :)

Then we drove back to Nick's, had a late lunch and then drove into Mornington where we played indoor soccer for the NADS team. The team we were supposed to play didn't show up so we got a walkover meaning we won by default (lucky us!), so we played a friendly match against an A grade team and lost by quite a bit... But it was so much fun!

This evening we went into Mornington for a while after the game. We had Maccas for dinner, we messed around with the drive thru staff's heads; at each part of the drive thru, Nick changed his accent. He went from Indian to posh British to Hillbilly American! It was pretty darn funny!

Gosh I can't wait to get my P-plates!!!

That's about it really, I'm absolutely exhausted! Heading home tomorrow, I haven't been there for basically an entire week! This is my schoolies week! Relaxing with my best mate, that's the way to do it! :)

Anyway enough about me, how is Europe?!?! I'm guessing you've left Rome now and are in another beautiful part of Italy. How is it? What have you been up to babe? Can't wait to hear from you! I tried to call several times, but you didn't answer so let me know when I can call you :)

I love you so much more than you will ever know Ciara, and I miss you like crazy...

Well considering is 12.22am I should probably head to bed and get some sleep. I'll try calling you once again before I hit the pillow.
If I don't speak to you tonight, I hope you're loving every moment of your trip and I can't wait to hear your voice!.

I love you Ciara,
from,
Your Josh xxxxxxx

P.s. Did I mention that I love you?

Day 1 of my diary for my girl Ciara

Dear Ciara,


As we talked about while you're away I'll write a letter to you every day about my day, here's day 1 :)

Today, I went into St. Kilda with dad for a while, I wrote more on my screenplay and then headed off into the city for my interview at RMIT.

I braved the wilds of the Melbourne tram system. My Google map took me to the wrong end of the street so I jogged for a kilometer or more before I eventually ended up at RMIT.

I waited for a about half an hour before I was asked to come inside. There were two people who interviewed me. They rattled off many questions and I answered them all as best I knew how.
At the end I feel I did really well, I answered all their questions and felt really confident! The lady interviewer seemed impressed and said she was very impressed with my skills and capabilities!

On the way back to st kilda, I stopped off to get a coffee from this little Italian place which I must show you!
Anyway, as I was walking towards Flinders street station there was an aboriginal guy who was walking in the opposite direction. He was wearing massive headphones, had a bottle of whiskey in hand and was singing 'So What' by Pink at the top of his lungs!
Only in Melbourne hey!
If only I could get a video in time before he walked away! It was the funniest thing I've seen all week, except for Jakey jumping all over you when we were on the couch watching your Kardashians DVD!

Right now as I'm writing to you, I'm watching a DVD and wishing I could hold you in my arms :)

How was your day baby? How was the flight and your trip to Rome? Or as the Italians say it with so much more style, Roma!
I miss you so much already girl, you have no idea! Hopefully this little diary will keep me sane while you're away :)

I hope to hear from you soon my darling, I love you so very much Ciara.
Stay safe and have an amazing time girl.
Until tomorrow my love, it's good night from me.


Love always from,
your Josh xxx

P.s. I love you Ciara
