I have now lived in Australia for a week and it has been crazy, good crazy :) I got into Perth around 9 p.m. last saturday. It was a long, tiring, stressful trip alone but even in this first week I can tell it's going to be worth it.
Starting next week my schedule is going to be 6 a.m. mornings exercise, 8 family chores (I help prepare for lunch), 8:30 lectures start, 12:30 lectures end, 12:30-1:00 lunch, 1:30-3:30 work duties (I work in the kitchen again, cleaning up after lunch, then i have some free time until 5:30 which is dinner then every evening there is something different. My weekends are free which is a wonderful time to sleep in, work on my journal, and explore the city!
In the first week I've met people from all over the world, made some great friends, eaten some very strange things, almost been hit by a car, bought a very cute sundress, sweated after walking only two blocks, been to the beach twice, gotten quite a sunburn (even with sunscreen applied more than once), listened to lectures by a guy from Denmark, saw the sun rise over the river, eaten tim tams, and tasted vegemite.
I'd love to hear from you, and if you want to hear about anything else just ask I'm sure I'd love to tell you!
Sorry if I don't get back to you right away, I have to take my computer to base to get internet so I try to check it every couple of days.
