Heres some pictures from the beach! I love this place.
The sun kinda setting over Cottseloe Beach
This is strange to me...pine trees RIGHT next to the beach. How awesome! good for shade!
Sorry it's been a minute.
First week was okay. not wonderful, not bad. It turns out i made a mistake with schedule. Oh well, its the first week so it was easily fixed. I went to my Asian Cultures Lecture on Weds and discoverd that everyone had their studyguides (syllabus). I asked the guy next to me how he already got his and he said from the lecture yesterday! (what?!) Well it turns out i read my schedule wrong and i really have TWO lectures and a tute. Well, it turns out that the first lecture conincided with one of my other tutes so i had to switch that tute to Thurdsay at 9am. Ughhh! now i don't have a 4 day weekend and i have to get up at the crack of dawn (poor me, i know...) Oh well, I guess i'll suck it up. At least now i'm in the same tute as Lauren and we are doing a presentation togeter in week 7. Speaking of presentations, I need to start on my presentation for Monday!
Books here cost me almost nothing! I had to get three readers (which are articles put together by the teacher into one book) and a small book. The book cost the most (AUS$50) altogether i only spent 150! Wow!
Did some more gorcery shoping! A little more culture shock! I wanted to make something easy, and American. So i was looking to make some S'mores. Well, I guess it's so American that they don't have Gharam Crakers! I asked customer service and they looked so confused. You try describing Gharam Crakers to people. Haha! Perhaps i will try and make it with one of their biscuts sometime. I think it would be real fun.
I also bought some minced meat (ground beef) to make some Chili. But I think i'll save that and use Halah meat so Abdulah and Diliya can eat it. I aslo go prawns (big shrimp) and made garlicy shrimp!mmm mmm mmm By the way, do you notice something wrong with the mac and cheese? why is the cheese in a can?! how annoying!
I went to the city today to get my Proof of Age card. I went with Diliya, Theodore and.....crap i can't remember his name! and he's my neighbor! We grabed lunch, walke around a bit. It was so nice out today. but then the heat started to get to me.so we walked half way around town and went to China town to get bubble tea. mmm mmm it was good. It had little jellys at the bottom and was fruitly flavored. It was good, but like i said the heat was too much.
well..i hope you are feeling better from the heat. and two: atleast you have macaroni and cheese--we have not been able to find mac and cheese here at all, and my flatmates and i have been crazing cheap, kraft mac and cheese. So now, atleast you have it!!
