After the big test wednesday this week kind of slowed down a bit. i still have to write two papers before the end of this week, and before our spring break!!, but i think i can handle it. wednesday night kaitlin and i sat around eating ice cream and watching "the farmer wants a wife"- an interesting show here kinda simliar to dating shows, but we were highly entertained to say the least.
thursday i tried to get some work done on these papers but with the library here (not as good as marquettes library), i was not very successful. instead i went for a run in the rain and marie came over and we all made dinner. we decided to go to the ubar on campus and walked over to find a "bad taste" party. i see my friend chris there and notice that his shirt looks very familiar. he was wearing one of my shirts over a tshirt! his roomate, a girl, had borrowed it for st. patricks day and so he put it on! it was hilarious.
friday i worked some more on my papers and went to the mall with kaitlin and marie. we didn't get much but just shopped around looking for stuff for spring break! after that kaitlin left for adventure weekend and i headed off to maries to get ready for luna park! we headed there around five and it was amazing. it is like this little carnival area and kinda similar to coney island. lots of carnival rides and weird side games. so we did it all! it is right on the harbour by the bridge and the opera house so the view is gorgeous. we did a weird little roller coaster that makes you feel like you are going right into the water, the bumper cars (my personal favorite), a weird spinning one that made my head hurt, and the huge slide ones that you ride down in a sack. we got hot dogs and popcorn- lots of good carnival food- and saw tap dancers and guys on stilts. we did the ferris wheel last and the view of the city was amazing at night! perfect way to end a friday. i finally figured out photos for this so here is some from luna...
saturday i decided i need to be serious about these papers and went to the library. i was actually being productive when this little asian girl came in and snatched up the last outlet so my computer died! i was soo annoyed. so i left with erin and jill and headed to the mall. after that we went down to anna's and simos again- right near the city- and then went out at our favorite new bar- lowenbrau! it is this fun german place that plays lots of good music. last night also was the end of sydney's daylight savings meaning we are now even weirder times. all i know is i add nine hours to the time it is now and that is the time it is at home minus one day. haha if that makes any sense. all our norway and finland friends! :
this week i have to finish my papers and then we have spring break for two weeks! i am soo sad i am missing easter and sarah coming home and the wedding but i hope it is the best for all of you! plus instead i will be travelling all up the coast of australia to brisbane, fraser island, whitsundays islands, and cairns. so that should be amazing!
hope you all are well. welcome to the newest member of our family- amanda mei! from china. and tom, it was another solid week :) (compliments of julie.) miss you all!
cheers mates :)
