well there are now only two more weeks left of the semester, i've been here for three months already, and this is all making me a little upset. but lets not dwell on that because i still have a little over a month here in australia. because the term is coming to an end john's has many social activities and parties planned for the next couple of weeks. the seniors are itching to get out and the rest of us are just looking to have some fun. last week sort of started the festivities. it was our formal and recovery day. the formal was great, everyone was dressed to impress, i was able to bring a friend from outside of john's and the best part there were bumper cars!! that was really cool. they call them dodge 'em cars here. lots of dancing and good food and maybe a drink or two even! definitely a lot of fun. recovery was awesome too. music was playing starting at 7am to get everyone down to the quad, although my friends and i didn't make it out until 10 (7 is just too early for me! lol). this was a day of just relaxing and hanging out with everyone from john's. there was a big lunch outside, a moonbounce (which they call a jumping castle), kite flying, races, and just some good old fun. then everyone was so tired from the past two nights that john's was silent by about 8pm. good times. can't wait for more upcoming events. (unfortunately i only have one good picture from the day, my friend hasn't put up her pics yet so just hold on! sorry mom!)
