Alright, SUNDAY - T.I.T.S. Boat Cruise! Tall Island Team Ships! Yes, I know it's dirty.. but, it's university. Anyway - $40 for this boat cruise. It left Surfers at 10 a.m. for Stradbroke Island, or "Straddie" Island as the locals call it. It's an hour boat ride from Surfers. There were so many Canadians on this boat, it was amazing.
When you got to the Island there was a live band, free bbq, wild kangaroos & KOMODO DRAGONS, parrots, swings and tons of drink specials.
Jess, Kara & I on the boat!
Kara with Kangaroos... and KOMODOS??? lol
Me, Natalia, Jon & Jess with our "sex on the island" drinks!
Francis & I and our birds.
SCUBA STEVE WE LOVE YOU!
Hello paradise! For extra fees you could go tubing, parasailing, paddle-boating, etc. Jess & I paid extra to go parasailing and it was SO worth it!!! Jess brought her camera up and got some amazing pictures! Here, I'll share a few:
We all started drinking at 8:45 a.m. and didn't stop until about 12 hours later. Seriously. It was probably the best time I've had here so far! (and I've had some pretty awesome times!) I met tons of awesome people.. such a good day! Here's a link to a video of a bunch of us singing on the boat (careful.. I'm loud)

Okay, blogger is being dumb. You'll have to copy & paste the link in order to see it. SORRY!!!
Of course, it was back to reality on Monday. School is SO intense! I'm looking forward to the break, but I have a feeling I'm going to just be thinking about all the upcoming assignments. I'm going to try and get some of them done before Jess & I take off on our road trip to Sydney!
I'm a coffee addict here. I've got to stop before I go bankrupt and never sleep.
My campaign strategies class is going well so far. Koral Luck, the Green Party candidate for Surfers Paradise, did a meet & greet on Friday and will be going out in Surfers to meet the community tomorrow morning! :) But seriously, It's hard being a candidate! Fake campaign or not! SOoOOOoOo much work & planning go into these things. Hopefully we'll have a successful campaign. I'm starting to get back into the school-time stress-out. Oh school-time stress-out, how I've missed you these past 2 years.. lol
I should really go for a run. I feel like a contestant on the Biggest Loser.. only I'm not losing anything. I really wish my room mate and I weren't such good cookers.. lol
I always talk, but never ask if there's anything you want me to post on this blog? Send me an email and I'll do my best. Hahaha! I sound like a celebrity.. wishful thinking!
In conclusion, my hair is long, my skin is brown and I'm going to go run on the beach. Please don't hate me. :)
