It's Friday...I'm done...and I'm still at school!

As of 11:00 AM today I don't have anymore class for the rest of the weekend but I'll be here for a while today. I'll also be in tomorrow. Instead of getting frustrated though I'm getting this surge of energy to just put in the effort and get it over with, soon! Time seems to go faster when I'm working hard so maybe busting my ass for three weeks will make it fly by. You need these times to appreciate the good ones.

I've also had another recent push in the student exchange direction. Nina is over in Austrailia right now going to school. Samad was there with her at the end of the summer for a while too. They sent a few pictures my way so I thought I'd share some with the rest of you.



Now that's something that I'd really be interested in. Even doing homework in some new part of campus would seem like fun. Actually, I'd probably just be very distracted and feel bad that I'm working on thermodynamics and not out exploring some new part of the country.



Here is Samad playing with some parrots (yeah they're probably some 'proper' name but they're PARROTS people). Well you know what they say about birds of a feather? Nina blames the wine.



Here is the view from Nina's apartment. That is Bondi Beach you can see, pretty famous I guess but I haven't heard of it. Better than looking out at that old apartment building in Kingston.



Of course I had to post the picture of the Sydney Bridge. I love bridges, especially ones that look like this. Makes me wish I was a civil sometimes. Jeff, maybe this is what you should do for your next work term.



They also caught a cruise to a place called Doubtful Sound. Nina says it was pretty windy. Ya think?

Looks like a great trip you too. Inspirational too. Australia is definitely on my 'must see' list. It was before, but even more so now. So, poker tonight anyone? We need some fun.
