The day is finally here. I can take my Community Work exam and be done with finals! Joanna and I met at 8:30 to make sure we made it over to the Innovation Centre by 9am. We could sit wherever we wanted this time but otherwise everything was pretty much the same as the last exam. There were two parts to the exam with 9 questions each but we could pick two from each part and write 300-500 word answers. I think I was one of the first ones at 10:15 and it felt ...

Finally started to do some studying. I studied most of the day but took lots of little breaks to keep alert and focused. It is round 2 of State of Origin so I had to watch it. I was tempted to go to Chancellor Park Tavern to watch it but decided I better stay here. I watched it with Ema, Alissa and one of her friends. It was a really good match and Queensland won! The next match is in 3 weeks and I'm sad because I will probably be on my tour from Adelaide t...

I started calling places to send my stuff to Sydney when I got up so I could start studying. I can't send my things to Sydney because I don't want to leave the airport and they can't leave my suitcase there unattended for me to pick it up.

It will still be heaps cheaper tha...

I knew I had to decide quick where I wanted to go and what I wanted to do because ticket prices were only going to get more expensive the longer I waited. It ended up taking me most of the day to get everything organised and tickets bought but I have a plan now! On Monday 19 June, I will be departing from the Brisbane airport at 8:30am and flying to Perth. On Thursday the 22nd I will be flying to Alice springs to spend a day in the city before leaving on Sunda...

I hit snooze twice before I got out of bed but didn't care because the girls were somewhat loud when they trickled in at 12:30 and again at 3:30. The front desk doesn't open until 7 or 8 on Sunday mornings but she agreed to meet me at 6 so I could get my $10 key deposit back. I woke the girls by 6:15 and they were ready and checked out by 6:30 so we had plenty of time to get to the transit centre. The third floor of the transit centre is all different tour com...
