39 days. That is all the time I have left in the land down under. This may sound like a long period of time but in actuality, it's not nearly enough. Now that I have been planning out every last detail of my final month in Australia (which is going to be one of the most epic months of my life) I have realized something...I wish I had more time here. I am very excited to go home and see all of my friends and family don't get me wrong, but I kind of wish I really was just going home for winter break or something and then I could come back. Yes it is winter break (winter holidays?) that is approaching now in Australia. Today is a wonderful fall day. Yesterday was even better. I love how the air just gets so crisp when it starts to get colder. Breathing is so much more enjoyable when it's cold out compared to breathing in humidity all summer. It is weird here how people are saying how freezing it is and it just does not compare to Ithaca winters and, well I mean come on I went snowboarding this past January and it was -40. It is all about what you are used to I guess. No worries I will back in summer soon enough. Interesting I chose to be in summer for about 8 or 9 months this year when winter is my favorite season. I did not even consider weather when I picked Australia. I picked so quickly I really didn't care about anything except that they spoke English!
Anyways...My last 5 weeks in the land down under are jam packed- full of exciting adventures. Friday I leave for my roommates house in Port Fairy with about 8 other friends =] It should be a lot of fun. I will blog again soon after my trip. The weekend after that we have a footy match Saturday and a wine tour Sunday. The following weekend I will be in Sydney. Then the first weekend in June will be my time to write my final papers before leaving for Uluru Ayers Rock (camping in the real Australian outback!!!) which is happening the second weekend. And then I leave for the good 'ol US-of-A the following Sunday, June 20th.
It really is going by so quickly. I mean Survivor ends in 2 weeks and we have been watching here since the beginning! It is our Tuesday night tradition but I cannot believe I have been here long enough that a whole season of Survivor is almost over. I guess it is true what they say...time flies when you're drinking rum...or is it having fun?
Cheers mate
