sydney, albany and heaps of fun

Hey guys. sorry that i missed out on filling you all in for a long time. school is all over and we had a few days in sydney as a group of students. we stayed in a hostel in colloroy, a suburb of sydney. there were 17 of us the first night and then we were down to four the second. then the rest of the days were spent in our group of sarah, sale flo and i. we had a lot of fun at manly beach, shopping, other beaches and hanging out at the hostel. on wednesday night, the very last night with the guys we broke off and sarah and sale went to some restaurant together and then Flo and i went to a thai restaurant overlooking darling harbour. it was a pretty flash place and overall it was a really good evening. then we went to the airport the next morning to send the guys off to germany. but unbeknownst to us, their flight had been changed and the airline had no way of contacting them, so the flight didnt even exist. they ended up catching a non-stop flight to frankfurt instead of a flight to taipai and then a 12 hour layover and then to germany, AND they were able to take more luggage (because it was a different airline) AND we had 5 more hours with them at the airport. How amazing is God? So once they were gone sarah and i took a teary shuttle bus to the marriot where one of the students, steph, was staying. we spent the night there and then took a train to the airport which is where we headed off for perth. once we got there sarahs sister, karlene picked us up and we didnt get to albany till 2 in the morning or something like that. the house is amazing and sarah and i are sharing a room (how could we not). sarah and sale are really serious, and she's probably moving to germany as soon as she's got the money. so things here are pretty temporary. im still in contact with the director at school to see what i need to do in order to be able to work there. so at the moment we are doing odd jobs for people here to earn some cash, hitting up the beaches at 6:30 in the morning, learning german and whatever else girls do in their free time. just keeping busy, trying to get fit because of the post-capernwray syndrome (gaining a couple kilos) ech. ~ta

Hello Friend! Thanks for commenting on my blog. I quite enjoyed it. I also love you and miss you. Hey could you send me sarah's phone number? I would really like to chat with you a little bit. If you could email it to me that would be great. That would be super hard to see your friends leave. Do you think you will go visit germany? You should put up more pictures. Like some from grad or something. Or some beach ones to make us wish we were waking up to a beach and not snow! hehe! Well I can't wait to hear some more of whats going on in your life. Keep us updated! Love you.
