So last night some friends I have made, Ben and Bridget, took me up to Mount Kembla around 11 to a lookout. The drive was interesting because it reminded me of driving through Michigan with all of the trees or driving up to Big Bear because of the winding road. It was creepy though because right as we got to the lookout point we hit some fog. A big forest, moonlight, fog, and three college students going for a hike, the scary movie just writes itself. Anyways it was very pretty at the top because we could see over all of Wollongong, but it was a little blurry due to the fog.
This morning I slept in and then did my laundry. Exciting isn't it?
Orientation week has started at Weerona which means there are going to be organized activities for the new residents. I am excited for these events, but I wish that there was more incorporation with the returning residents then we could get to know them as well as the new people. The week kicked off with a BBQ today where everyone was invited to come down and have a steak sandwich or sausage sandwich.
After lunch us newbies were invited to come play ultimate frisbee. Ultimate was fun for the first minute until I got hit straight in the nose by the frisbee resulting in a bloody nose. Some leaders helped me clean up and then I went back and watched for about 15 minutes and then I played for the last ten.
After ultimate I folded my clothes and then went down for dinner. Then after dinner all the newbies were invited to come play some ice breaker games and get to know one another. For the competitive games I came in second each time. SO CLOSE!
Now I am about to head off to bed and wake up and go to my Study Abroad orientation tomorrow on campus.
