FINALLY, I get my internet back. I ran out of my one gigabite and apparently my 3 gigabites don't go into effect until March 11! It was very frustrating to not have the internet for so many days, but thankfully I was able to get a gigabite to last me until March 11! One Friday, we went to the Zoo!!! It was soooo much fun! First, we had an adventure getting there. We took a bus to Landsborough and then had to wait a half hour to catch another bus to the zoo. The little town we stoped in was a nice town so it wasn't too bad. Once we got there we took a shuttle to the edge of the zoo and then worked our way down! We started with the elephants and tigers! Eventually we got to feed the kangaroos!! It was a lot of fun! They just hop over to you and you put out your had to feed them! They are so friendly! It was really neat! I also got to hold a Koala and get my picture with the Koala!! Those were definitely the highlights from the zoo! I love my picture with the koala!

On Saturday, we went to the mall, again! We shopped around and got some essentials we needed! I am determined to find a sun dress that actually fits me! It is quite hard to do! I did find a really cute top though, and that made me feel better. I was upset because the guy at the phone store told me that my phone should work and that the voltage shouldn't be a problem; therefore I have a phone that doesn't work! I will probably just buy a phone down here! We also went grocery shopping, which was necessary! After the mall, we just hung out at my friends place. Then some of my friends went to the bars and I hung out with my roommate Yoko! We watched "Remember the Titans"! It was a good day!

On Sunday, we went to the beach! Again, we had an adventure to get there! We took the bus to the mall and then had to walk 15 minutes to the beach! It was hot!! But, once we got to the beach it was beautiful! There was an awesome breeze and the water was warm and wonderful! (nice alliteration) We went swimming for a while and then hung out on our towels! It was relaxing! Then we went back, and I did homework!

My first two days of this week have gone pretty good! Today I had my communication tutorial and I really enjoyed it! I really like the people in my tutorial! I met a really nice girl and we are going to go to a workshop together tomorrow! Soon I will be going to my creative writing lecture and I hope that will be enjoyable!
