Already been a week!

I cannot believe we have already been here a week! The time has flown by and minus the rainy weather I am lovin every minute of it. Everybody is super nice and the final two roomies have moved in. One is a girl from Korea and a guy from Turkey. Both are super nice and overall I think the five of us are going to get along great.

So Friday night we went into the city with this Australian guy that we met. He was super nice and showed us how to get to the bus stop and how to get downtown and such. It was about a 45 minute bus ride into the city, so not to shabby. The city was nuts! There was so many people and we ended up going to this place called bungalow 8. It was very fun and crowded. I talked to a few Australians and we danced around.

Saturday for the big valentines day we went down to Uni of Sydney to have dinner with some people we met on the plane/ were at Kaitlins orientation. There was about 12 of us and we went to this little cafe place for dinner. They were all super fun/nice and overall it was a good time.

Sunday was pretty rainy so we hit up the mall and hung around for a bit. Monday we were determined to explore so me, Kaitlin, Corey, Ryan, and Marie hopped on the bus and headed downtown. We walked around the Harbor a while and had lunch right on the water. It was sunny in the morning so we had a lot of fun and a really nice day. When it started to rain we decided to walk to the casino- HUGE casino- and check it out. It is called Star City and it really is it's own little city. Because Kaitlin, Marie, and I were wearing flip flops we weren't allowed in (their big on shoes here.) So the boys went in and we walked around a bit more. Corey ended up winning 50 bucks! Solid day.

Today it was all rainy again so we just grocery shopped and hung around. Tomorrow is orientation so hopefully then I will know my schedule and have figured it all out!! I am ready to get the show on the road.

Cheers mates!
