Late Lvl31 Journal
a year ago
G'day,
It's a late one this year for my annual journal but then again nobody reads these anyway so doesn't matter! I know I certainly very rarely actually look at journals.
Back on Tuesday 14th I leveled up to 31 and damn, again I don't know really where that year went. They weren't kidding when they said time flies when you're an adult!
Spent my birthday, and in fact the days from the 11th to the 15th over in Launceston, Tasmania for a nice little holiday, my first actual one since 2022. Gotta say it was a lovely time of year to travel. Unlike here in Victoria, there's a lot more trees down there that react to the autumn weather meaning everywhere was just so damn gorgeous and colourful! Haven't been to Tassie since 2004 so figured after 20 years it's probably a good time to get back there right? Especially given it's only an hours flight away. Speaking of, a big part of the reason to go there was to fly on the Qantaslink Boeing 717s before they're retired very soon. Yes I am that level of nerd.
Actual birthday itself didn't do a great deal. Had a nice walk around some wetlands to the north of launceston, spotted a few birds and a looooot of wallabies. We then went on a nice river cruise for about an hour along the waterway in Launceston including a bit of the way up Cataract Gorge which was absolutely stunning. After that spent ages trying to navigate the cities somewhat annoying one way road system to find food and ultimately settled on some charcoal chicken, nothing fancy but I didn't exactly want a restaurant meal anyway. Didn't really do much after that which I can recall.
Beyond that trip, I've mostly just been keeping on doing the same things as ever. Lots of work intermingled with poking away slowly but steadily at my model railway (and still spending probably far too much on it!) as well as gaming and whatnot.
We'll see what the next year brings. I still am trying to plan trips to both the US and the UK but it's so damn expensive (and the aussie dollar ain't getting any stronger) that it's difficult to really say if those trips will even happen, yet alone when. We shall have to see I guess.
Until next time, now I have to figure out where this skill point should go, and I guess going to have to start taking some debuffs too...oh well.

And hah, thanks. Might be late but close enough I suppose!
Wishing you the best for your future journey!✨
