*** I originally had a video posted, but its not working, I will try and get it up soon, sorry!
Sorry for not updating, things have been crazy over here, and I have been non stop on the go! I just got internet connection in my room so I will now be able to update more often!
Last week at the program intro I got to go scuba diving at the great barrier reef! It was a blast and I was able to swim with sea turtles and reef sharks, and other big fish! I also got to go snorkeling..... I also got
sick on the way back into harbor... I think I will be taking some sea sickness pills n
ext time!
I got to wear a wetsuit which helped with the cold... it was about 75 degrees, but it was cloudy and windy! The oceans in Australia are gorgeous blues and greens! I attached a video of the boat, it should work with most computers, just press play!
Another fun part of our adventure is that we got to go to the rainforest!!!!! It was also a blast. We got to hold Koalas, and dance with Aboriginals, learn to throw a boomerang, which I was dreadful at, go on a 6 wheel drive through the jungle, and we learned about different plants that could seriously hurt us, or that we could eat! We also go to hold snakes and play with Kangaroos!
After another long day of traveling and lugging my baggage through the airport, up a ramp, then up some stairs, on a train, to a whole new terminal ... I was very tired, but we finally arrived in Newcastle, the school where I will be studying for the next year! Its a green tropical place right on the beach! I attached photos of my room!
Im all moved in! I love it! More updates to come!

So your last post time-wise goes in the middle of this post, right? I just want to make sure I have a nice linear idea of what you're doing over there ;)
Good luck with classes tomorrow, lady, who knows if state school prepared you for this! jk.
Send me your address so I can send you postcards/care packages ;)
