Spring Time

Hello all... So I sitting here at my computer having a spoonful of peanut butter and a glass of milk. I am absolutely craving a tim tam, but it is midnight and I have a whole fresh package of them and I know that I will eat more than one and don't need them, especially this late... any way, point of story is I am now writing this blog post to distract myself... after this, i'll just force myself to brush my teeth and then I won't have the desire to eat any more and it will be time for bed...

Anywho, the weather here is absolutely amazing! The sun has been out every day, the trees are budding, and people are EVERYWHERE! This past weekend, Casey and I went down to St. Kilda and laid out on the beach. Again, there were people all over the place, but it was nice. There was a lot of sport playing going on... cricket, football, Frisbee, we were dorks and didn't bring anything to do, but as it turns out, just laying out in the sun was just perfect. We decided that next weekend we are going back only this time we are packing a picnic and a frisbee.

Since New Zealand, not much has been going on. School is taking up most of my time. Classes are done on the 29th and I still have three research papers to write! I have started one, but the task ahead is still daunting. They'll get done, but I am ready for classes to be out! Lee and I have a trip to Sydney planned for the 4th to 7th of November. Her aunt lives there so that will be nice to get an insiders guide to the city! Sydney is really the last thing I have on my list of things to do in Oz, so once I tick that off of my list I think I will be complete. I only have 37 days left in Australia and I can hardly believe it. The good news is that I don't feel like I have missed out on any opportunities here. I feel like I have been taking advantage of all, or at least most of what this city has to offer.

Well, I've really run out of things to say, so I suppose I better go brush my teeth and avoid the deadly tim tam box! If you haven't done so already, I posted the majority of New Zealand pictures on my facebook, so you should check them out. Talk again soon, and until next time... no worries!
