| swimming carnival was well, fun! i'm just really glad i didn't drown swimming my backstroke, i'm better at swimming breaststroke but unfortunately i misheard and signed up for the backstroke. oh well, at least i'm surviving, i'm still ever so glad i can breathe, eat and sleep! :) today was good, i feel like switching my fashion and design subject unit. I CANNOT SEW. The only guy in class does sewing better than me. :( I really need to keep telling myself, "I KNOW HOW TO SEW! I KNOW HOW TO SEW!" And I just stare blankly at a guy who really knows his sewing, and I look like some blank person staring at him watching him sew. Sad for life.
mary co and james came to our homegroup today! how the mind works/heating and cooling class was with mary, she's from the phillipines and she is really nice :> yeah lunched w alexia today, and talking to rachel and helen and they're really pretty nice people! oh haha australia is heating up. it was burning during lunch! alexia and i were itching to get out of the sun. and i had my lebanese wrap, which was A-W-E-S-O-M-E. I am loving it!
School's been great, but I'll pray I can get to adapting to this school, the culture of here and everything. Other than that, everything is okay! Missing everybody though :(

| today for dinner will be fish soup, and it already smells really nice, i really wonder how it tastes like! today we went to gepps cross to buy fruits, and we had to wake up really early so i pigged out just now and went to sleep. don't know why, but once i don't get my eight hours i fall back to sleep :) like some machine that just conked out. okay i love PEACHES!!! Yes I love them, and nectarines. And it's summer, and they're seasonal fruits, so even better, I've been a FRUIT MACHINE!!! (;
okay just had the fish porridge! delicious (;
today went to Hope Bible-Presbyterian church after fruits shopping, we were five minutes late so i guess it was okay :) at least we still managed to sit in the main sanctuary, and not the spillover room, where you listen to the sermons via television and radio. i don't think that's the way to listen to a sermon, i rather hear it from the person talking and delivering the message, it makes a whole lot of a difference :) after that went for lunch, where i had the delicious $5 A TRAY STRAWBERRRRRY!!! :D ( as you can tell, i do love fruits especially STRAWBERRRRRY )
better get going now!
happy australia day to y'all in advance! it's tomorrowwwww!

| today i'm going for sparks4Christ! It's a church activity, and we're gonna be playing wii!!! :D Actually originally it was bush-walking, but now it changed to wii gaming because the summer heat is going to kill all of us if we don't stay in. i'm kind of starting to adapt and live here, yesterday kim and nat showed ashley and i how to hang from the monkey bars upside down and swing up in magill school. it was crazy fun, kim and nat did it so easy, it was almost effortless for them!!! haha and we played catching in the school oval, i think!!! hahahahha :D
when it's cold here, it's really cold and when it's hot, it's burning, and everytime it does, i sing katy perry! :) | | |

and sometimes we've got to appreciate the beauty all around us, stop, look at the small things, and just enjoy some solitude. why can't we slow down, and look around us? | | |
| transiting at perth was a horror, we had to run around and unwrap and pack things back in their boxes, but other than that perth was a pretty place, and we came here in adelaide safely :) day three over here, and the digital piano has arrived! made breakfast today, with some orange juice and toasted bread with peanut butter and jam. i am even surprised with myself about how i could whip up a decent breakfast! ~ but it's not the same without my mom, tita, jessie, my church, and my friends :( I do miss y'all! It's not the same without all of you!
15b murray avenue is a pretty nice place, it keeps the flying insects out, there's internet working here and nice toilets, so i don't really mind hehe, and 86% dark chocolate cocoa solids AHHHH Heaven :D
Missing y'all :( | | |
