not quite the easter bunny
So it was easter here today, and most of the stores were closed. So to pass sometime we decided to FINALLY go see the KANGAROOS! I still am not quite sure how to feel about them. They are pretty cute just sitting there and hoppin' around...but they are quite large, and when they start approaching they kinda just crawl slowly towards you it could be a little creepy (not to mention the fact that they are wild). Then if you have food like we did some of them could get a little excited/aggressive and claw at you! (I have a slight scratch on my leg to prove it) haha They aren't mean or anything, just a bit startling. None the less it was quite fun seeing them. It was a good and relaxing easter! and this week I have off so it should be nice to chillax a bit and get some work done :) hope everyone has a great easter Sunday and a good week!

obstacles...
almost second guessing if this is where the big man wants me to be.....I have hit an obstacle EVERY step of the way. Thought everything was sorted out....but surprise, Avondale puts another wall for me to jump, but it's nothing that's really in my hands (regarding visa process and FASFA release). kind of stressing out for reals though. Prayers please :/

about time
it's been too long since i've written on my blog...apologies.
I've been in school for a little over two weeks. So far everything has been going well. I've been meeting people inside and out of my classes, everyone is nice for the most part (however they could a little clique-ish). The hardest thing is not living on campus. It definitely has it's pros and cons, but it seems when starting out it's always a little more inconvenient as far as the social aspect. You would think by now I would have the hang of starting new, since this IS my FOURTH college in 3 years. hahaha...but my shy self always seems to start out lying low and being content with observing. Trying to change that currently :P haha
But none the less I am happy i've decided to come :) Turns out, they are going to accept my spanish courses and give me that language minor even though they don't teach it out here. And even better I'll be graduating ON TIME! (if all goes well, lol) so i'll be finishing half way through the school year here in June of next year. However I won't march until December at the end of their year. I'm actually pretty stoked about that, because I thought I'd at least be a semester behind.
So as of now I will be graduating with a major in Communications (kinda focusing on PR and Event Management) and I'll also have minors in Visual Arts and Spanish.
Other than school I've just been chillin, looking for work, playing bball intramurals, going to the beach, been to a couple BBQs, and just trying to enjoy my time. Australia is beautiful and I can't wait to explore it more :) OH! and sorry i have not posted any pictures, I am currently waiting for my new camera charger to come in -___- soooooon though.
I'm leaving out a bunch of other things, but this post is getting a little lengthy so i'll wrap it up here. Just wanted to give a gist of mi vida! Hope everything is well with all you guys. I'll try to update it more frequently!

if you can't take the heat...
okay venting time:
We started up flag football intramurals at drayson this week. We had a game yesterday, all girls league, and today we had a game for the coed league. Now, let me just say I am usually a calm, cool, and collected type of player; ya know, the good sportsman type. I don't trash talk, I rarely argue with the ref, and I let most things just roll off my shoulder.
BUT.....this beezy....wasn't getting on my last nerve, she hit it. here it is in a nutshell:
1. she complains that our rush is too rough (she was blocking) and that we were running right into them. uuhhh....you're a freakin' blocker, it's your job! (but we get a penalty anyways)
2. turning things around..I was doing the blocking and she was doing the rushing. She runs straight into me full force, i'm bigger/taller than her, so basic physics takes it's course and i end up knocking her on the ground. she makes a big scene about it. (and WE get the penalty) so this chick is already talking trash about me and complaining to the ref that i'm "too rough" or that my elbows keep coming out (which they WEREN'T)
3. couple plays later, she trips and falls face first into my block and screams "c'mon! are you serious!" and tries to get the call....so i shout back at her saying "i'm not even touching you!!"
but at that point i actually had to take myself out of the game because i was SO mad and frustrated with that chick that i probably WOULD have pulled a "SABRINA SMASH" (you guys know what i'm talking about LOL) and actually give her something to cry about....
basically if you can't take the heat....get out of the kitchen. if you're gonna be a little B about every hit that you take...DON'T play a contact sport!! (especially the two positions that REQUIRE you to hit people!) aaaaaand end rant.
okay sorry 'bout that...hope everyone's week was good and that your weekend is even better ;)
