I am officially in Sydney, Australia now. The time here is 7:33 PM, I am extremely jet lagged and don't know how much longer I will be able to stay awake. It is about 5 in the morning in NYC and we have been moving non-stop since we got here.
Flight #1: 5 hours and 30 min
Flight #2: 12 hours and 45 min
Flight #3: 3 hours and 30 minutes
all in all totally worth it for spending 4 months in Sydney.
We got here this morning at 10:30 sydney time and it was July 19 because we skipped a day coming over here. Actually on the 18th it was someones birthday on the plane so his birthday actually got skipped completely. As soon as we landed we got put on a bus and taken to the College where we will be studying for the next four months. It is such a cool campus but totally not what you would expect. It literally takes 1 minute to walk from one side of the campus to the other. On our tour of the campus we were shown all the cool places to frequent during your breaks from classes. They call the as station that they like to pick up snacks at the SERV-O.
We then did the normal meet and greet games and then were sent off to email the family quickly...
My homestay mom picked me and four other students up at the campus. Her apartment is awesome and she even has her own terrace. We are about a 15 min drive from campus and a 40 min bus ride to campus.
Tomorrow we have to wake up early and head in for Orientation. I actually should head to bed because jet lag is kicking in quick.
I will take some pictures tomorrow of the campus and the apartment and post them....
Peace
Krystin
