Quick overview of the Gold Cost

So I have been living here in the beautiful Meriton for about a week now and everday is better than the day before. So let me recap a few events, not sure if they are going to be in the correct order or anything, but you will still get a feel of life on the other side of the world.

The weather has been a constant 90 degrees or so. We have gone to the beach several times to relax in the sun and even go boogie boarding (holler Hammer). Boogie boarding is not like boogie boarding on LBI. The waves are veryyy intense and big so boogie boarding is pretty difficult and tiring. On the flip side, when you get a wave you just fly for a long time until you get washed ashore.

We went to campus a few times to get our schedule, ID cards, meet up with friends and do some orientation events. The campus is beautiful. There is a huge pond in the center of campus and it seems that all the buildings are brand new. Everyone walks around in flip flops and beach clothes because the weather is always soo nice. Most of the people I have met here are from either America or another overseas country, so I have yet to meet some Australians. That is a little dissapointing, but it is still early so hopefully I will meet some soon.

At night we have gone to several bars including: Platinum, The Bedroom, The Drink, East, Melba's, Shooters, and mannyy more. Nightlife here is crazy and the Australians dance much much different than the slutty Americans. They give you eyes and point when they see you grinding, but we'd do they same if they were dancing their way at our bars... The music at the bars has been real good too. Nightlife here is just heaps of fun and we still haven't even been to a fraction of the bars and clubs.

I guess those three things pretty much sum up my vacation: beach, bond and bars. Sorry Dad.
