... music, as well as our awesome driver. The whole way home I felt so happy I couldn't stop smiling, oh and I saw kangaroos :D hihi. GOOD WEEKEND <3
oh and yep I managed to burn myself really bad, so that sucks. but it's my own fault, didn't apply sunscreen until it was too late. Sadly I can't get my pics on this site for some reason but I'll try again later, because right now I'm close to hitting and kicking this ****** computer so .. stay tuned yeah?

... outback that blows into other cities in Australia.

Enough about that. Yesterday we went swimming again to the city beach, i don't care if someone complanes that it's a fake beach, it is REALLY nice to go swimming and tanning right after school. One thing about Brissy that makes me a bit cranky, but my stomach happy, is that there is endless choises for food here. man if I keep eating like this I'm gonna be too fat for ...

... Women’s League, followed by a stroll through Roma Street Parklands, This is the most beautiful park. Later we went out of the park for an excellent snack lunch at Silverton Place café before heading back for another walk round the gardens.

Did some grocery shopping at Coles on the way home, and got some beer and a bottle of wine at a bottle shop. Supermarkets here don’t sell alcohol.

... a 3'' cockroach hanging out on the wall of our hostel room. Daved chased it around for 20 minutes before managing to smash it with a magazine, amid several swear words. I squealed in the corner throughout the process and woke up paranoid several times during the night. I HATE BUGS!

July 11th, 1 pm: Booked my tour of the Whitsundays with Amber today. I'm super excited!! Off to Mooloolaba...

I am back in Brisbane, after spending 4 beautiful days beside Leslie Dam. I have decided I needed a hobby to stop myself from going mad, and so bought myself a sketch book and started drawing things. I also have an old half finished novel in my computer which I should work on now and then, which should keep me out of trouble for a while. I am now staying with friends, so I am back to solid walls and electricity for a few days, along with ...

Woo hoo, booked all of our accomodation, airfares and car hire today. It will be approx $750 each for the flight home and accomodation for three weeks on the road. We think that is great, as you can tell we are not going to be staying in hostels etc but for one night we are staying in a cabin on the Mighty Murray ...

... I watched a little tv while eating brekky, worked on a report for my Marine Biology class, and emailed the UQ Union HR lady about jobs. -When Matt got home we took off for the Gold Coast to visit his mom and sisters who were in town. Genna had flown in from London where she currently resides, and Bec flew up for the visit as well. We had a delicious meal, complete with chocolate avocado pie and tea at the end of the night, and some good ...

... a massive woman, it was heaven in a glass my friend.

So next stop, Singapore!!! We are really looking forwards to Asia which will be so different to anywhere on our travels so far - and also be far more wallet friendly, which is much needed. However, we have just had an absolutely fantastic two months in Australia and I think it has surpassed both of our expectations. Although I had a few moans along the way ...

... that will provide a perfect title for the series of pictures. But our time is up and we board the bus for the ride down. The driver was a very good driver, but we had not appreciated the steepness of the climb until we began our descent. Thoughts of "Mr. Toad's Wild Ride" at Disneyland sprung to mind as we descended the mountain. We still had several more sights to see before we completed our loop of the city. There was another great lookout point by the river, that ...

... wo gerade ABSOLUTES Chaos herrschte. Die Orientation Week hat heute angefangen und einige hundert Studenten drängten sich an einen Stand, hinter dem Sarah, meine Koordinatorin, und drei weitere ISS Mitarbeiter standen - 5 Minuten später dann auch ich. Ich wurde mit Fragen bombardiert, der Großteil der Studenten kam zu mir, worüber sogar Sarah lachen musste. Bloß gut, dass ich mich mit den meisten Dingen durch mein ...
