Sydney Halloween Cruise

Since Halloween really isn’t a big deal in Australia my friends and I decided it would be fun to go on a Halloween Cruise around the Sydney Harbor. I decided to dress up as Michelle Obama and it was a huge hit. The night was amazing and we made some new friends along the way. But I must say that I woke up the next morning with all kind of injuries with no memory of how I got them but from what my friends and I put together I’m guessing I hit the pavement pretty hard, lol. But it’s all good I will recover as always. Cheers!!

American Treats

My wonderful friend Scott sent me a package from good ol’ Texas full of my favorite candies, a shirt and planner from SFASU, and other great things for Halloween. Thanks so much Scott it really made my day, and just so you know all that candy was gone in one week. I just couldn’t stop eating it, lol.

*Crazy-Fun Weekend*

This weekend was one of the best weekends I have had since moving to Australia, filled with the most embarrassing moment of my ENTIRE life! On Friday Tamsin and I decided to go see a movie at Deny Cinema, which is one of the best in Sydney. We seen Wall Street 2 which is a really good movie if you’re in to all that financial stuff…Tamsin and I got lost in the “financial dialect” but it was good anyway. After the movie we headed to Manly for Zebine’s Frat Party, which turned out to be a great event. It felt just like an American Frat Party with drinking games, bear bong, and drunk crazy people everywhere. While at the party Trisha and I decided to take shots of Tequila to get the party going….two hours later the whole bottle is gone and this is where my memory starts to fade, lol. The next day I’m not feeling to hot but I have to get on the fiery to go from Manly back to my place in Newtown. Can you see where this is going yet?? Well, on the fiery ride I start to feel sick but I’m able to do my breathing techniques and tell myself its mind over matter, and I overcome the sick…or so I thought. From the fiery I have to take a 20 minute bus ride to be back in Newtown, as soon as I’m on the bus I realize that the feeling of queasiness is back and bolder than ever. The bus is overcrowded and I’m sitting in the inside sit, I’m looking around and there is nowhere for me to go….I have no choice so what do I do?? Open my purse and vomit. The girl sitting next to me jumps half way across the bus, everyone on the bus is looking at me….the smell of tequila fills the air, I’M MORTIFIED. I still have about 15 minutes to my stop and I contemplate getting off at the next stop but I know having to walk will only make the situation worse for me…I could care less about how the other people on the bus felt, lol. So as I’m getting off at my stop a few minutes later the older lady in front of me said, “if you ever need help they offer AA meetings every Thursday in Newtown”…..as I burst into laugher I almost vomit again!!! I make it home and I only have time to shower and change before I have to head to Meagan’s Han Day (AKA: Bachelorette Party). I have to take an hour long train to get to her house but I was able to make it without getting sick again. At the party were of course tons of alcoholic beverages and delicious food….I’m not gonna lie and say I didn’t drink cause of course I did, lol. While at the Hen festivities I attended by first Tupperware party and Zumba workout class, followed by a BIG surprise….the police which equals a male stripper, lol. Overall definitely one of the most memorable weekends EVER.
Enjoy the pictures!
