LIFE ZERO

Recently, and also a while ago, I have been involved in Youth Development schemes namely the Young Endeavour and the Leeuwin. It had all started probably with my older brother when he went on the Leeuwin when it was up here in Darwin on 2002 when I was about 13 or 14 years old. I had a show around on the ship and heard storey of how he met people and had so much fun onboard. At that stage I had though “I think I can do that, would be a blast and a once in a lifetime event” and well I went. Now i was going to say it was a once in a lifetime event, but that would be lying because the next year i went back as the cooks mate and again had a blast. 

This first voyage brings back memories of finding myself in Google I was pretty stoked at the time of finding myself by typing “Dix, Krystin” from all sites in Australia – and surprisingly enough it still works! Here is the link that I had found http://newsroom.nt.gov.au/2004/20040607_stsleeuwin.shtml. I have mirrored this site here so that I will never loose it (hopefully).

Over the last 5 years since that first trip of discovery and learning I have forgotten most what I had found and learnt. Exploring on my last trip on the Young Endeavour I guess I had found what I promised myself and re-affirmed a lot of things. I am here, I am going forward, I am living in the now.
