Surfed

YAY, another post.

MMK, so, monday, despite some efforts, was not really all that fun. We went to the botanical gardens, and I tried a little to enjoy it, but I just wasn't in a great mood. Most if not all of you know how I can get sometimes, just a general downer. It was kinda pretty, but it's winter here, so the off season for gardens, and it showed. As I said, I wasn't in a great mood to begin with. I could probably enjoy it in the right company, so if I ever return here with said company, I'll likely go back.

Tuesday! (today) we had a class on australian sport, including criket (sp?), Aussie-rules football, and Net-ball. Criket is most likened to baseball, Aussie rules football like american football, only much more brutal, harder, and much faster. Netball is kinda like basketball. As mentioned before, I've also seen a little bit of rugby. After all these aussie games... american sports look like sissy-stuff to me.

Then the great surf lesson!!!!!!!!

WOOO!!!

okay, if it isn't obvious yet, I loved it. Surfing was GREAT, and if I lived near a beach, I'd take it up as a hobby on getting home. Someone else took some pictures, the best of me I will put up as my facebook profile picture for you all to see. The only thing I couldn't get the hang of was spotting waves, and then timing my paddling and standing up right for when they passed. Part of that blame goes on not being able to wear my glasses of course, but it'd take time and experience to get a good hang of.

6 days left till I come home, and still greatly looking forward to it, but I had a great day :)

PS. I love you Hannah!!!
