So yes, voted yesterday, and as you can imagine, was not really that surprised by the change of power to a Labor Government. What it hold's for the future one can hardly say, I mean already it's somewhat disturbing to read the first press releases from around the globe, and yet I'm not surprised by it at all considering the online persona of Kevin Rudd, which I had actually discussed with my father in terms of his ministerial appointments in both Sweden, Stockholm and Beijing. You see nothing was said of his foreign policy during his running for election however it's been a major focus of his life in terms of overseas's business and in terms of his election speech. Personally I wonder how many bank account's him and his wife hold internationally, I mean you don't hold her wealth alone without some, could we say dubious business practice ?
So I have to say initially I'm disappointed with his first comment's as winner of the election, and I refer to "I look forward as the next Prime Minister of Australia to working with them in dealing with the great challenges which our world now faces" source :http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20071124/ts_nm/Australia_election_dc
The reason for this is because it show's no commitment on his behalf as an "Australian", when you say, in working with them it tends to indicate, that you are working with them, but you are not one of them.
Followed by the following statement "We extend our greetings tonight to our great friend and ally the United States, to our great friends and partners across Asia and the Pacific, and to our great friends and partners in Europe and beyond."
As a person that has trust in all nation's around the world, this tends to me, to be quite inappropriate not to mention the fore founding empire, namely the British Empire. I think the notion which I find in society today, that fit's this situation is.."how easily we forget"...and that I find a problem of immigration, because while everyone comes and takes their claim of Australia, property developers, new business group's etc, they forget who built this country that now let's them take claim...
So I'm initially disappointed, even though I did vote for the Green's this year. Personally, I feel John Howard was a good Prime Minister of Australia, and could not fault him on his leadership, what I feel led to his downfall was perhaps too strong a leadership without listening to and perhaps not even hearing the needs of the community on the ground floor. Do I think Kevin Rudd will be an improvement for the issues that face Australian's, I can't say, although at the moment I feel given the initial reports I've read, perhaps his focus was never really Australia but foreign policy. Personally I feel many issues were not addressed in their campaigning, and a major one that came to light in the last few day's for me, was aged cared. Although often campaigned for in terms of votes, it seemed to me, that while these votes had been previously one, there was no need to address the aged in the community.
I myself will continue to fight my own battles if that's the term for them, however I prefer to call them dissatisfactions with current Australian Leadership, but they say woman are always dissatisfied, and I say with good reason.

Oh...I'm totally blank...or was that lost for words..
either way...
each and everyone of you is a different person waiting to be explored, like the great unknown....I should be an explorer of men...I think that's my ideal job...now I just have to work out how to get paid to do it....lol.....
I think I might try it like this...I'm going to buy Fortune 100 and write a note to the top 100 most wealthy people in the world (preferably men, seeing as I seem to have such a hard time getting along with woman these day's)....and I'm going to say something like...I would like you to pay me $2000 to spend an hour with you and explore your mind...and I'll take a year to do it...and if they agree, I make 200,000 in one year...that's not a bad wage for a years work...and I'd really enjoy it...I'm a mind explorer....maybe I can turn it into a documentary...
I bet I could explain all those bodies....you know the one's I'm talking about...the one's that just kind of float...and you try and pretend there not there....but some nights you wake up because you hear them screaming...
we want your mind we want your body and we want your soul....we are soul munchers....lol....

all right, I'm going to bed...finally finished the scene today, which took forever...in fact it's taken the longest so far, and it's for the shortest scene...which actually totally sucks...but it does make a reappearance later...so at least it's ready for that...which I guess you could say is another interesting thing about this feature...at the moment each scene is set in a different space, which not only makes it expensive...but also interesting...
anyway as I said...goodnight...
I think I want to go back to America....
