Aussie Aussie Aussie (Oi Oi Oi?)

Okay so,
as far as weather, this has been a pretty pathetic summer.
But as far as altogether summerfun-ness goes, this summer has been amazing.
This weekend with Lisa was pretty great and I love living with the Spence's.
Michelle comes home tomorrow and I can't wait to hang out with her and talk about her beloved Trekkie for hours outside.
Also, Carlye and I have decided to study abroad. In Australia.
Now, it's not like we haven't always wanted to be there, and I know part of this has to do with brainwashing by Andy Mac (since all the schools we looked into [ie. the War College in Adelaide or the Training College in Melbourne] were shot down because they're too far away from Brisbane) but we both have always hated Winter (seriously. We hide out in our houses until the snow melts) and there's 300 days of sunshine. We get that in 3 years, maybe. If we're lucky.
Anyway, we finally settled on Shafston College in Brisbane. It's amazing! The rooms are called Mansions (and the name fits), you get your own kitchen, the classes are small, they provide you with jobs (13 - 20 dollars an hour) to help earn money... oh, and did I mention it's in Australia.
Carlye's parents are up to it, and since I'm lacking in the parental dept, so are mine, I guess.
It'd be crazy if this actually happened... but I'm still excited.
