On Sunday I had the opportunity  to go to a taping of an episode of Australian Idol here in Sydney.

A bunch of us girls took the train from the Hills District (where we reside) to Central Station - from there we took the bus to Fox studios where the taping was held in studio.

It was the top 6 performing songs from Film & Theatre - and the guest judge was Liza Minnelli.

To Build A Home
There is a house built out of stone
Wooden floors, walls and window sills...
Tables and chairs worn by all of the dust..
This is a place where I don't feel alone
This is a place where I feel at home...

Cause, I built a home
for you, for me
Until it disappeared
from me, from you

And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust........

Out in the garden where we planted the seeds
There is a tree as old as me
Branches were sewn by the color of green
Ground had arose and passed it's knees

By the cracks of the skin I climbed to the top
I climbed the tree to see the world
When the gusts came around to blow me down
I held on as tightly as you held onto me
I held on as tightly as you held onto me......

Cause, I built a home
for you, for me
Until it disappeared
from me, from you

I debated about whether I should write this blog or not... but, I finally decided to... because it is a huge relief getting this off my chest...

I have been living here in Australia for almost 10 months now... and in the same house, with the same housemates the entire time...
But, even though we've been through so much together, I still feel like the outsider in the house...
I have missed out on some great house bonding times because of my financial situation, and now I feel like after I leave here I won't be missed by those who are staying...
Is it sad when you feel like a stranger in your own house?

I live in a room with two other girls... in a house with 6 girls... but why do I feel so lonely?
Sometimes I feel unappreciated... unwanted... scared of the fact that I feel like (more often than not) I'm completely forgotten...

I know I'm probably just being paranoid... But it is difficult thinking that I am leaving here in less than 2 months - and I'm afraid that its gonna be like I was never here...


If you were here right now you would hear me sighing...

Hey, hey - I hope this day sees you well!
I decided that I would start on a weekly basis sharing music with you that has inspired me, caused me to think... or, I think are just plain amazing!

Astronaut
Hey, don't cry for me
Don't be afraid I'll be okay
Soon I'm walking on air without a care
I'm leaving today

So don't try to keep me by holding me down
Don't try to to tell me I'm in for the ground
I am an astronaut sailing the stars
The moon is where i left my heart

Tried to follow the crowd
Got trapped in the cage I had to escape
Cause this world was never for me
I was born to fly free there is no other way

So don't try to keep me by holding me down
Don't try to to tell me I'm in for the ground
I am an astronaut
Sailing the starts
The moon is where I left my heart

I hold the earth in my head
All that I am, what is given to me
Although I'm shaking I trust in the hope
That someday you'll find me in your telescope

I am an astronaut
Sailing the starts
The moon is where I left my heart
