its june.....

... and the leaves are falling!!!!

i made it to australia and the most shocking thing is it is fall here. i knew it would be this way, however it is still a huge SHOCK!!! it is so cold in fact i decided i needed to get some hot chocolate. so here i am having one of the best hot chocolates from a place called 'chocolate by the bald man max brenner' and borrowing wifi from dlink. pat is here too and can confirm the hot chocolate is amazing. this has been a long day, it started about 5 am for me. the jet lag isnt too bad, but i did go to bed at about 6 last night. should be back on track after today. it is still a little too early to call about apartments but will be contacting people this afternoon. my job search will begin once i have found a place to live, i would like to work near my house so i can walk to work. everything is going well and i am looking forward to the next few months. i purchased a pay as you go phone and will be more than happy to give you my number if you send me an email (i think it would be a bad idea to post it up on a public blog....). not much has changed over the last few days, except my location, so i think i will end this post here.

stay tuned for pictures of the new apartment, new job listing, and other important details!

lots of love,
