A bit of a catch up on life!!

Well.... Still no computer! I'ts been weeks since I've been up here so I figured I'd update you all on what has been going on down under.

Alex's birthday was a few weeks ago and we celebrated all weekend! The three of us went to build a bear (like all 20 year olds should do for their birthdays) and made australian bears! So cute! We went out to a nice dinner and had drinks with a bunch of friends. The next night we went on a pub crawl around surfers paradise and met some pretty cool people. Very tiring though!

Mid terms have come and are in full swing. Yuck! The actual study part of studying abroad is THE WORST! I've had  tests and papers for the last two weeks and it's been a lot of work. The good news is the grades I have gotten back have been pretty good!!!

Over all things are going well here. We're down to 75 days and it's getting sadder to think about leaving all the time. Though, I must say I have my eating agenda all planned out from the minute I land in North Carolina! To Bojangles we go! I'm missing my favorite foods a lot lately! I'm also missing people more. I haven't gotten to skype more than once in the last month or so and I'm really missing catching people on facebook chat when we're on (I'm never on!). It's definitely been a challenge not having my computer these last weeks but I'm making it through.

Spring break is in about a week and I am absoultely thrilled! I cannot wait to travel and see more of Australia! We're planning on doing some really great things and having an amazing time! It's going to be the best early birthday present I could possibly ask for. Traveling the country will be the opportunity of a lifetime.

Well that's about all I have right now. Back to school, school, school! Hope all is well back home!!! <3
