Wednesday, 9th November

I had a good nights sleep and slept in till 8am. This morning I had to write my public speaking speech, but ended up writing postcards and updating my blog. I knew what I wanted to say, and didn't feel that I had to write it down on paper.

After lunch I went to the football stadium and ran the stadium. As I was almost done Abby and Sam rocked up to run it too. It was a beautiful day and I enjoyed running with no shirt to soak up some rays. It took me 23 minutes, a 60 second improvement on the first effort. Again I felt short of breathe and my throat hurt. It was a cold day too so my nose ran and I had lots of flem coming up.

Here is the video I made of it:

I came back to campus and met up with Brandon. He was doing an assignment on cultures and thought it'd be interesting to use me as his subject. We met outside the library and caught the last rays before the shadows swept over us and we went inside. Hannah was there readying the NYT. I met Brandon through the ultimate frisbee team. He was still going to training, but had to wear tights, beanies and gloves as it is just too cold now!

I then went to the gym and Lucas and I had a good shoulder and abdominal work out. Vince from Italy was also there and he commented on my video.

We headed to Lapo, but I couldn't stay long as I was meeting Chris (my change lecturer) for some ski gear. After, at 7pm I had class and wrote some of my public speaking speech, but had forgotten about the outline that I had to do too!

Hannah wanted me to come to the sub to check 'something out'. Turns out it was like a bucks night for the sorority houses and had males dressed as cowgirls doing dances. It was rather hilarious. The dancers were form the frat houses so there were some boys in the room.

I had a late night snack at lapo and waited for Harry to walk out of his exam. I tried a few times at 12.30pm Perth time but had forgotten that the exam wouldn't finished until 12.50pm. It brought me back to my last exam (physics) and walking out of the room into the bright sunny day and excitedly heading home with Hamish. Harry has so much to look forward to- travelling with Georgie to America and then catching up with Me before we fly up to Canada. Its only 5 weeks away!

Anyway I finally got through to him and had a quick chat. He was very excited!

I caught up with Rafi and his crew and drove the subi for a bit. I felt good driving in the car. The heater is super heated so when you turn it on hot air comes out almost instantly!

We came back to the dorms and I caught up with Hannah, then headed back to the dorms to hit the hay. I fell asleep soon after 12pm!
