I’ve made it to Sydney! I checked into my hostel and was stunned to find the room packed! At like 4pm. I guess they must all be jetlagged foreign tourists? Apparently I have to change rooms aft...

I went and saw the final of my three films I purchased to this year’s Queer Film Festival tonight. This time it was a film called “Everlasting Love.” It centered around guys cruising around gay b...

---

Wow, two guys I personally know (one whom I hooked up with many years ago) have come out as transgender today. I seriously didn’t even realize, about either of them. One was a little more of a ...

---

I’m a little bit concerned at the amount of blood that’s been escaping my lips the last 24 hours. I feel like Dracula :P I woke up in the middle of the night last night, needing to spit into a t...

---

So, I’m back from my second-opinion dental appointment, and my teeth are all sparkly and clean! Man, did I need that clean or what!? Haha, I swear it’d been a couple of years at least since I la...

---

Fuck I hope I’m not getting a stye. I haven’t had one before but I’ve heard about them, and the corner of my right eye has been sore today for some reason, and it would make sense, I guess. It’s...

---

I’m sitting naked on my bed, as I do. I often dream about being able to do this all around the house in my own place one day. I mean, I don’t think my current housemates would even mind that mu...

---

Apparently ‘Zika Virus’ is a thing now. Must be pretty bad if the World Health Organisation is declaring a public emergency. Every year, it’s something new, something different. Fucking scary....

---

Another work week is over for me, thank fuck. It was just one of those frustrating weeks where I was getting annoyed at certain workmates for being lazy… which I guess isn’t anything that new. ...

---

So, apparently Aussies (except South Australians for some reason) are now allowed to enter that massive US 1.4B Powerball draw. Beats me how it works, but man, the USA’s seems even harder to win...

---

Tennis finally happened! It was good. I played alright considering I haven’t properly hit a racquet in like a year. We just hit it around though so didn’t play games or anything. The court was ...

---

James texted me last night and I ended up going over to see him and Vish, so that was kind of a nice way to spend the evening. I really couldn’t be bothered heading down to the Goldy again, this...

---

I had a really bad, groggy sleep last night. Just wasn’t very pleasant at all. My mind must’ve been all over the place in my slumber because I woke up with my head hurting, generally a result o...

---

I’m on the train down to the Gold Coast to catch up with my friend Benji. He’s visiting friends on the Goldy and this afternoon is the only free time I have to catch him before he takes off agai...

---

I went and finally got my hair cut. I was umming and ahhing over this barber place that I hadn’t been to before because they were advertising half price cuts on December 29th and 30th only, and ...

---

Fucking BRAVO to anyone else out there who happens to work in retail. If your shift was anywhere near as shit as mine was today/tonight, then big hugs to you. Phewie am I glad THAT is over! Of c...

---

Andrew called out to me today whilst I was in my room, “Quick Matt! Come here! Bring your camera!” I barely had any clothes on at the time, but I went out to the back deck in my underwear (MAN ...

---

Andrew is annoyed at the turkey digging up the plants in his garden haha. We live literally a 500 metre walk from the Brisbane CBD mall and we have turkey’s romaing around the suburb haha. ‘Str...

---

I’ve had a lot of philosophical thoughts this week. Just about connections with people and chemistry and things like that which blow my mind. Like, how some people meet other strangers and just ...

---

I’ve made it back home! I tell you what though. It feels bloody weird being back. I know I was only away for a month. I think it’s because my eyes were opened, seeing a liberating country like ...

---

I think I’ve written three entries in the entire four weeks I’ve been overseas. I’m currently in my hotel near the airport. I booked a late checkout of 5pm for 10 pounds extra, as my flight leav...

---

I’m at one of Berlin’s airport’s, three hours early for my flight LOL. I don’t like taking chances whilst over here. I leave WAY too much time. They say to get here two hours early, so three I ...

---

I eventually found this place. Berlin’s Underground system is easy to understand. I just had to validate my ticket like in the old days - ie. punchcard system. I didn’t know how to get into the...

---

The night in Paris by myself turned out to be rather exciting. First of all, I found my accommodation. It was down some small alleyway past a park and I had to knock on a green door with the num...

---

Paris has been a pretty incredible experience. Not gonna lie. Everyone is just getting on with their lives. I haven’t even noticed anyone freaking out or being worried. The only presence is th...
