Long time, no blogging..I have lots to catch you up on!
The week of June 2 was my last week of classes! I had three classes that week and one final so I am officially done Spanish. Since classes are done, it is now the study vacation period. Unfortunately, I am not going to Thailand anymore which makes me sad but I know there is good reason. I have two more finals left and then I have officially finished my study abroad semester. This semester has got to be one of the best semesters of my college life. I made so many great friends and had so many amazing memories.
Wednesday June 4, I had my Spanish final, which was pretty easy if I do say so myself. After my Spanish final Sami and I planned on going to the Westfield Tower to get a cocktail in the 360 rotating bar to see all of Sydney. The cocktail was not very good but the view made up for it. It was a nice relaxing Wednesday night. After arriving home, Kelley and I were the only ones home so we watched Titanic and Bad Neighbours.
Thursday June 5, Sami and I went on a souvenir shopping spree. We headed to Paddy's Market to get souvenirs for everyone back home. I have one or two more presents to get and I am done buying things for everyone! After I got home ate dinner and relaxed, Sami texted me saying she was upstairs with Samm and Philip pre-drinking. She invited me up so I went. I had no intentions of going out that night but some how Samm convinced me and I ended up at Scubar with the crew. On Thursdays Scubar is usually packed because it is the neon party but literally no one was there but Lewis and Gregor. After dancing for a little the girls and I decided to head home after getting kebabs (my first Kebab yet!)
Lets just say Friday June 6 did not go as planned. The girls (Sami, Alli, Libby and I) decided to go to Argyle that night because we had free entry and free drink cards thanks to our girl Rachel. Sami got lost trying to get a picture of the Opera House and she got stuck on a fence. Alli had no money for a cab so Ash had to give her money that night because she didn't want to leave with us. Libby and I ended up eating chicken nuggets from Aporto because we were stuck in traffic and took our taxi driver to let us out. At Aporto some girl tried to tell me my American accent was fake and we got into a heated disagreement. Argyle: 5 Em: 0
Saturday June 7 was a rough one. All day we all were recovering from our wild adventures the night before. Thankfully, Sami and I went to MadMex our typical rough weekend lunch spot. You can never go wrong with a MadMex burrito. Saturday was not too eventful because of the way I felt. But after going to the grocery store, making chicken noodle soup and eating dinner with Sami and Alli we got motivated and got ready to go to Marquee with everyone in the building. I hosted the pre drinks and the crew (Jackie, Samm, Philip, Libby, Alli and I) stayed back a couple minutes after the other crew left because we felt as though it was too early to go to Marquee. Finally making our way out the door in our very cute outfits we got taxis and made it to Marquee. Thanks to TEAN Christine, we got free entry. Marquee this time around was not as eventful or as fun as the time Nicole and I stayed there until 5 am LOL. Sami, Charlotte, Jackie and I made our way home while stopping at Mcdonalds half way home. Typical me, taking about 20 ketchup packets and using every single one. I love my Ketchup.
Today, Sunday June 8, has been yet another relaxing/catching up on sleep day. I slept a lot and ate another burrito LOL except for this time it was with Rachel since we are the only ones here. Kelley and her friend Mary are in Bali/Cairns/Byron Bay and Nicole is in Thailand. I started the new season of Orange Is The New Black, cleaned up my bedroom and the kitchen. So far today has been uneventful as well. Today marks my 3 weeks left in Australia, I really never want to leave I love it here so much.
Miss you all!
