Getting Comfortable
Things are starting to get a little bit more comfortable here, I've got my class schedule, which doesn't start until next week, but I can't lie, it is an amazing schedule, for many reasons, the first being that I don't have classes on Thursday or Friday!! Traveling on weekends, that will have to be a must! The second reason, I have one class on Monday in the afternoon, which only meets every other week, YES!! Then Tuesday one class in the a.m, Wednesday I have two classes, but one is also only every other week, looks like free time will be in large amounts! More time for adventure! Also, all of my classes look super interesting. Cultural and Spiritual Wellbeing, which is supposed to allow you to grab a greater grasp on your life, great! Indigenous Ways of Cultural Expression, learning about the Aussie way of life as well as the aboriginal people! Poli Sci course, something about peace and war. Then finally Intro to Written Text. All should be wonderful! But I guess the true test will be next week when I start them! Also, today I booked my first trip! This is a trip all around Byron Bay, which isn't too far from my school, but this trip includes two day of learning how to surf, that ought to be interesting. The next day is snorkling, the fourth day includes horseback riding on the beach, then the final day is the Blues festival here, I know Jack Johnson is going to be here, and many more! I'm very excited for that trip, I'll have to wait until April to go on it though! Needless to say things in Australia are going well and I'm starting to get acclimated to the time difference and the Aussie way of life, time will only help! Oh yes, and in case anyone was wondering (more or less I just want to share this with everyone) if you are a BBQ chip lover like myself, good luck in Australia, they have chicken flavored chips as well as BBQ ribs, I have yet to find normal flavored chips. Grocery shopping has been interesting thus far, at least they have Greek yogurt and honey! More fun news, I've joined a beach volleyball team, as well as signed up to play in a soccer tournament tomorrow... all should be fun, and funny for others to watch! Last thing for now, on Thursday I get to go to with the Angels Beach Dune Care group and help clean up the dune, should be a fun day! Until next time... try and stay warm at home, while I'll try not to sweat every minute... do you all hate me yet?
