finally here!

so it took me 28 total hours of travel time.. boy was that an interesting surprise! but i finally got here and that is all that matters! :) i have 5 awesome roommates 4 are from australia and 1 is from massachusetts.  when people told me southern cross uni was in a rain forest they really meant RAIN forest! it rained a lot in the beginning but it started to clear up yesterday.  everything is so green though and there are trees everywhere it is awesome.  there are all kinds of interesting birds too i havent really seen any of them yet but you can definitely hear time! some of them sound like monkeys! haha yesterday i went to byron bay with all the international students and it was AMAZING the water was pretty the sand was SUPER fine and the waves were"awesome" according to the locals.  it was really funny to watch all of us go into the water though because the currents are much stronger here than they are in ca.  i didnt see any sharks which was probably the best part of my day haha.  we went to this little fish and chips stand and i ate dim sims.. and i still have no idea what the heck it was and im not too sure i want to know.  i still dont have an address but i will soon and i will definitely put it up here when i do!
