crazy times

I haven't updated in a while, but I have definitely been busy having a great time! Lately I went camping and tried sailing on a maricat boat and then went kayaking. I have also been playing some cricket and frisbee and have been spending time at the beach a lot, swimming and surfing and body surfing. I LOVE the ocean! I also made a thanksgiving dinner for 20 people with one of my friends, but I dropped the sweet potato pie on the street! I almost cried, but the few of us there ate it off of the cement with our hands... SO good! Oh! I got to see Julia and Eric, two of my friends from UC Davis, and we went to the blue mountains and around sydney.

Right now I am in Brisbane because my borhter and mum flew out here and we are travelling here and then to new zealand. My mum and brother fly home from there, but I go back to wollongong until dec 20th. One more month of aussie summer and beach and cricket and the north gong pub! I won't have a house when I get back to wollongong, so there might not be too many updates. I am living on a coach in the fight club, which is basically a dump of a house like the one in the movie fight club.

anyway, no time, but lots o love!

good day

Yesterday was so fun! I woke up early and went out on a boat on lake illawarra and went wakeboarding! I have never been before, so I was totally excited to try it. It took a few tries to get up, but once I got up the first time, I got up every other time with no problems. The conditions were a bit choppy, so I did a few faceplants, but I had a really good time nonetheless. OH! The only scary thing was that there were jellyfish in the lake! How freaky is that?! I thought they were joking when they told me to watch out for the jellyfish, but then I saw a few huge ones in the water. Yikes! After wakeboarding I went to frisbee and then to a friend's housewarming bbq. A summer bbq in November! I love Australia!
