“Shocking”
Well,
My arrival in Australia was quite a “shock”, literally, as one of the first things I did after 15 hours of flying was electricute myself trying to plug in a blow dryer in my new place! (excuse my spelling, although it is only 3:15 in sydney, my body thinks its 1:00am!!!) This entry will be short and sweet since I’m already running around from registration to registration but a few updates: I live in a cute house with 5 other girls (anna, alex, britt (from Madison), jennifer and brianna) and I have my own room! (YESS!! aside from britt and I, the other girls have to share!)
I also signed up for two classes, a general marketing class and a contemporary womens writers class that will allow me to finish my womens studies minor at madison… sot hats great! I also will find out about my internship in about 1/2 hour when I go to my first meeting about it… so LOTS going on. If I can force myself to stay up untill 8:00pm tonight (Australia time.. approx 4:00am America Time) , hopefully I will get all the reading done from my 1 million packets I was just handed. Tomorrow I have orientation all morning for international students, which is good b/c I’m sure I will get lots of useful information.. I’m just going to be SOOOOO TIRED! But as they say here, “no worries!” I will catch up on sleep somehow!

Hi again,
Hope by now you are finished trying to figure out what day it is and are catching up on your rest. Think of you all the time and am anxious to get your next journal entry.
Love you Tracy,
