Happy New Year to All!
As this is the first post of the new year, you can imagine I have quite a bit to get you all caught up on. Mainly the accommodation front - which is very exciting news indeed!!
So, without further ado - I HAVE A PLACE TO LIVE IN BRISBANE!!!! My aunt Cheryl has a friend in Noosa (a town about an hour north of Brisbane) named Marilyn. Turns out, Marilyn works with a fellow in Brisbane who owns a house that he rents out to students. AND, there was an empty room up for rent JUST when I needed it. So perfect eh??
Pros: I'm about a 5 minute walk from downtown Brisbane and the hub of everything.
Cons: I'm far from the university. I can't walk, but will have to take public transit (some sort of metro system I think?) but you can't have everything!!
All in all, I am just SO glad to have the accommodation front sorted out, since that was my primary concern. Now all that's left to do is sorting out my timetable and ensuring that my courses I've registered for don't conflict with each other, figuring out some sort of idea of what my cousins and I are going to get up to when we backpack for the first couple weeks, sending over payment for the rental room, packing (man - that will be a day's worth in and of itself!) and tying up other loose ends here at home....
But, my Australian Adventure is 20 days away from beginning. Which is amazing - I am SUPER excited. I can't even begin to explain it!
Anyways, I have to wrap this up as the intermission of the Canada vs. USA Jr Hockey game is over and I want to catch the end!
Until next update,
Danielle
