Ok, so its been a few days since my last post. I've had yet another eventful week, from playing at a Jesus Youth conference in Melbourne - amazing group of teenagers - to spending time with Bishop Joe to preparing to enter the Melbourne seminary (in 2 weeks), to sitting through interviews and more...

I am also off to Sydney this weekend for some meetings and to work on a new video project! All exciting, though... it's strange as I stand in a very "unknown" place at the moment, knowing very little of what the near and far future holds in store - with seminary, studies, music and so on! My consolation is that God stands by my side!!! (sniff, sniff..ref to pic above;) Anyway... pls pray for me!!

Feeding the Possum!


It's been a week since I arrived here and so much has happened since. I have been missing my family and friends, though at the same time I am so happy to be here. My CD's (What A Day) have just arrived in Australia and I can launch them here soon.

As time goes by I am realising more and more how happy I am to be called to possibly serve others through the priesthood, though I do feel so incapable and unworthy...anyway!!

Last night I went out with some wonderful people tor an Italian meal followed by a walk in the park to feed some possums (picture) , then to a banquet of desserts!! I have been eating so much since I arrived!!

Computer Blues!

It's been a good few days. I have been waking up earlier than usual (5 am to be precise) and begin my day with a good, relaxed time of prayer. Yesterday I drove nearly 2 hours for a few interviews, and today I had lunch with the bishop and some other Maltese people (we ate timpana!!!) after giving the Sunday mass homilies in 2 churches.

My computer is drivving me crazy...it is as slow as... I have no idea what is possessing it, though I will have to format my whole computer if it persists! Aaaaghhhhhhhhh!!!

Tomorrow... my diary is packed... but my day includes going to try and get a car, going to the gym (hopefully), and planning a short trip to Sydney.

An early morning ... A great man!

It's been almost 4 days since I arrived here in Australia and I have still not got into the right sleeping patterns. You see, there are 10 hours difference between here and Malta and so I find myself wide awake by 3 am. This morning I managed to prolong my sleep till 5am after which I had some time to pray, wash the dishes, go to mass, then to the gym and then some catching up with emails and friends;)

This afternoon and tomorrow morning we have the vigil and funeral of a holy man. Mons John Duffus was my spiritual director and confessor all last year while I was here. He will be greatly missed!

In Sunny Australia

After over 24 hours of traveling I am back in Bendigo Australia. I feel as though I never left, though I had the most amazing 4 months in Malta working with Y4J, recording and releasing a new album and the launch concert. I begin the seminary here in a month and will be settling here in the same parish I was last year for the coming month!

I'm going out to do some errands, among which is to buy a wire to connect my camera to my computer (I left it in Malta).

Soon Leaving!

Just a couple of days before I leave for Australia and I am full of mixed feelings. I so want to serve God and go wherever He seems to be leading me, but it is so hard sometimes. It's hard for family and friends too... though I go to Australia with a glad heart, I do!

I began packing my bags today and had a few farewell parties which I so cherish. I also have one last interview tomorrow and a meal with all the Maltese seminarians...after that family time before I leave on Saturday!
