Sorry to those of you who actually read my blog, it has been a while since I last posted. To think I was doing so well last week- 4 in a row! I am doing well here in Aussie land. I have continued getting myself settled in with my new apartment and roomies. I bought all new bedding and have cleaned up the room a bit to make it look a little better, and to make it my own a bit. I’ll post pictures soon.
Adam and I are doing well. Poor guy has been working heaps. He has been working so much that I actually haven’t gotten to see much of him in the last couple of days. We did have a date night on Saturday which consisted of Japanese food and Toy Story 3 (so good). Sunday was a good lazy day together as well. Since he knew he was going to be working long days this week he took me bowling on Tuesday where he ICED me. I took a picture of it on my phone, but I’m not smart enough to figure out how to upload it onto here. P.S. We both suck at bowling; at least we did Tuesday night, we need more practice.
Adam’s family have definitely been doing a good job of making me feel at home here with them. They call me often and plan fun things for me to do so that I don’t get bored while Adam is working. Last Friday Kate, Deb, and I spent the day walking around an art exhibition on Cockatoo Island. So many things to be said about Cockatoo Island; first, the ferry that took us to Cockatoo Island was named Rosman Ferries (a picture was taken with the phone; please refer to earlier statement regarding uploading pictures from phone). Second, Cockatoo Island is haunted. At least, this is what Kate and I declared after stepping one foot onto the island. It is a former imperial prison, industrial school, and reformatory, it also was a big shipyard. There were so many dark places and weird spaces that we couldn’t help but think it was haunted, or a great place to make a horror film. We had a good time, and I would love to go back as we didn’t have enough time to check everything out.
Last night I met Kate and some of her friends for dinner. We went to a place that believe it or not, I have already been to. I went randomly the first time I was in Sydney. Small world. Anyway, Wednesday night is “Toss the Boss” night. When you order your meal the bartender flips a coin and if you call it correctly your meal is FREE!! Both Kate and I got free meals! I’m going there every Wednesday night.
All in all I am feeling good about my decision to move here. I know I have only been gone two weeks, but it really feels like a whole lot longer. I cannot wait for school to start so that I have a regular schedule with things to do. Until then I am going to concentrate on having fun and doing things I wouldn’t normally get to do with a busy schedule. Love to all!
