So this morning I woke up kind of early, excited to finally check in with my program!! I made a little breakfast, and then Jess was going to go on a run down on the beach, so I walked down to the corso/boardwalk area with her... I just had to stop to get a cappucino and muffin :) (i like their cappucinos only because they can actually make foam haha) and then as Jess ran along the beach, I walked haha but it was fabulous... it was a weekend so everyyyone was out in the morning, all active, i loved it. People were surfing (i think there was even a surf competition) and even little kids surfing! so cute! and all these people playing beach volleyball,and walking along the walkway that runs along the beach... a lot of families, but i love how everyone is so cheery and active, loving the nice sun during winter...i swear i hope it stays this sunny.

afterwards jess and i walked through a few stores, i bought my first australia item! just some makeup hahah woohoo! then we went back to her place and hung out for a bit, we watched some more world cup and then jess and her boyfriend drove me to drop me off at my program.

OH MY GOSH, when i walked into my room i literally DIED! we are living in the nicest building, with pool, sauna, gym, jacuzzi! and our room is a legit hotel! we have a huge kitchen and couch area (its a pull out bed even!) and a huge bathroom and beds with comforters! i dont even need to buy any appliances... and katie my roomie is SO nice! we have all these things in common too hahah

so anyways, i unpacked a little and then katie and i got some snacks and then unpacked somemore haha

then we had a dinner with all the people in the program, they are only 20 of us, and everyone is SOOO nice! i absolutely love it! they are all so excited about sydney too :) we had a buffet dinner with tonnsss of mushroom cream pasta with cheese, and my first fish and chips!! omg tempura battered fish is the best thing that every happened! goodbye artieries :)...After that we all went out together to three monkeys bar, when i discovered that thankgoodness sydney has tons of cider! my favvv! i had like 2 pints ;) hahaha it was so much fun to be out with everyone!

we didnt stay out too late because everyone had arrived that morning! but still what a great time!

yayayay!
