Time Flies

Sometimes it's hard to believe that I've been here for over a month and other times it seems completely normal. We got to hang out and explore Perth for three weeks before classes, which was awesome. The second week we didn't really do much because it was raining the whole week, but we still managed to do some interesting things. Some things we've done are try kangaroo (which is delicious!), visit Fremantle and the Fremantle Markets on the weekends, take a cruise down Swan River, learn how to use the public transport system (which is awesome), explore a few parts in the actual city of Perth, visit a couple beaches, get 18+ cards (no more carrying around my passport!), go on a school sponsored wine tour, and visit Kings Park. Classes started two weeks ago and have been going pretty well so far. I'm taking Introduction to Marine Biology, Introduction to Photography, and Aboriginal Cultures. I also only have class Monday through Thursday. Last weekend we got to go to an AFL or footie game, which was really interesting to watch. Its really hard to explain, but it was an awesome game to go to because Fremantle dominated Port Adelaide (and Freo normally isn't really good). That's a quick update about my time here so far. It's all going so fast, our first spring break is in two weeks (yes, I did say first, we get two). Me and the three J's are going to Cairns for the week to hang out with people we met at orientation and chill on the Great Barrier Reef. Overall, I'm absolutely loving my time down under!
