Hey there, I'm Constance and I'm spending 5 months in Australia...aka far, far away from all that I've ever known! This blog is to document experiences and things that I'm adapting to....as well as lovely pictures of me doing touristy things from time to time. Enjoy! :D
Adventures in Australia
I think parking garages in the states should have red/green lights to indicate free spaces.
I mean come on, its totally a good idea.
Thongs = Flip Flops so when someone says “Get your thongs on and let’s go!” they aren’t referring to your choice of underwear.
Make sure you have ALL your bags before boarding the bus. They won’t hesitate to charge you again even if you’re crying helplessly.
I never thought that the ending of my trip would have just as many tears as the beginning. Hell, its not even the END of my trip and I’m already hyper-emotional.
I’m less distracted and that’s causing a problem as far as my sanity. Everyone’s busy with assignments and I’m not. That leaves me bored. That leaves me homesick.
I can’t blame everyone for this, it isn’t their fault, but I certainly know that I’m way more ready to go home now than I was a month ago.
I know I’m going to miss everyone so much when I leave but I’m in the middle of getting back home to everyone that I knew I was going to miss when I came here.
Bittersweet feelings ahead that I don’t know if I’m ready for..
going to start queuing things that I’ve learned while here in Newcastle. I’ll be tagging them with #rememberthis so that I can remember them once I get back.
…I’m sure that eventually I’ll set up a link on the main page in order to direct you there but in the meantime they’ll just be popping up randomly.
holy shit.
that’s soon.
thank god because these classes are slowly killing me on the inside as well as not having any money.
its way easier to be poor at home compared to here.
I’m slowly getting nervous for my homecoming.. Like, its 44 days away but just….
Things are going to be so different. I’m not the same person that I was when I left Iowa. I’ve changed and (I think) its for the better. I look at things differently. Not completely differently but I’m less connected to my phone and more connected to just walking to where someone is to see them or talk to them. More action than talk I’d say.
Less things annoy me. I know, I know, that just sounds downright impossible but its true. People do things that would normally piss me off for a day or two and now I just don’t care. The only thing that really bugs me still is when people insist that they’re right when I know that they’re not. That will never change.
Blagh, I know this post was just word vomit but I can’t stop sneezing and its really throwing off my concentration.
