Anzac Day

Today is Anzac Day. It's Australia's version (that sounds bad, I don't mean it to) of Canada's Rememberance Day. Everything is closed and tomorrow (Monday) is a holiday. I'm a proud Canadian and I always acknowledge our troops on Rememberance Day - Now that I'm an honourary Australian, I'll do the same today.

So, here I am! My week from Hell is over. I only have an exam this Friday and then my "mid-terms" are done. I still can't believe my first semester is almost over. I really hope I do well. I haven't received any assignments back with my marks.. I'm getting antsy.

My interview went really well! The lady seemed really impressed about my Starbucks background (I mean, why wouldn't she be?) and said she'd call within the next few days. I really hope I get this job!!!!

I have decided to run every morning. All my friends back home are becoming ano and I want to be too! This is actually the biggest I've been in my life.. which isn't bad, but, when clothes I wore back home are tight here, we have a problem. I'm going to run every morning and stop drinking so much. Seriously. I hope I can keep with it!

Last night, Jess & I had a get together at our place. About 30 people showed and we all just partied until 3 a.m. It was good times. I love the people here. Here's a photobooth picture I took hahaha Plus some pictures some other people took!


Chris, Rory, Myself, Jess & Alysha. We're ridiculous.

Again!!!

Francis & Myself. "We give peace siiiiigns!"

LADIES! Trish, Alysha, Me, Francis, Jess, Robyn, Kara, Hira

Next weekend is Labour Day. We get another long weekend! So awesome. I'm hoping to honestly just lay on the beach all day. I feel like should be doing more, but frankly, I don't have the funds to do much until I get a job. Ugh. A lot of my American friends from school are only here for one semester and they're doing so much. Like, every weekend they go on an adventure somewhere in Australia. I'm jealous, but then I think I have way more time than them.. then I lay on the beach and forget about it. Hahaha.

Mother's Day is coming up. I miss my Mom. She's so cool. The boys here think she's "foxy". Hahahaha. She is!!! I wish I was home so I could take her out for breakfast on Mother's Day.

Okay, so I should be better with keeping up with my blog after last week. It was just so intense! I'll do better from now on!

I love you all. xox
