You are living in the most remote city in the world, in a state that is not famous for introspection or sensitivity. Where and what would you like to be, if you could be anywhere?

If i could be anywhere? I'd like to return to the Alps to go skiing. I haven't been in almost 2 years.

God. I'm not sure I can imagine an Earthly terrain that is more unlike Perth than the Alps. I suppose a gap year back to Europe is out of the question for you? Failing that, do you ever get the chance to head over to the east coast? Cheap flights to New Zealand aren't so uncommon out of Melbourne and Sydney, and I hear the skiing over there is pretty world class.

Money for me is currently, well, i don't have any. And i mean ANY. My education is taking too much of my time for me to work as well, which sucks. But yes i would love to go skiing in the Alps, or New Zealand, where i have never been but i have also heard that skiing there is fantastic..

That has to be the messiest, most grammatically incorrect paragraph i have ever written, but i'm tired and in a bad mood.

Nobody has money when they're 18 years old, unfortunately. I know the pain.

I was a young man in hurry, once. The idea of taking a semester off study to work and save cash for travel was anathema to me. I had plenty of friends who did it, though, and none of them regretted it. You'll find it easier to save if you're living at home, too.

Sorry you're feeling shit, cobber. I hope things improve for you soon.
