On Wednesday Rebecca kept running down the hallways and telling everyone that it was her birthday. She got Kelly Clarkson tickets from her bestest friend Sarah, a ring, bracelet and a few other small things from people on the floor, and a new digital camera from the best parents in the world! :) That night we just hung out and went to this college event at night where each dorm building auctioned something off. Our floor auctioned a poker tournament for 6 people and we raised money for a charity.
On Friday we went with Bianca to another AFL game, Geelong vs. Western Bulldogs. We were 7 rows from the field and the tickets were only $35! It was cool to see all the players up so close. We went to the game with the Down Under Program we had signed up for in the beginning of the year and it was a lot of fun.
The weekend was pretty relaxing. On saturday night we went with Bianca to the Pancake Parlour for dinner and to the movies to see Ghost of Girlfriends Past. It was a fun girly night. Sunday we just hung out and finished up an essay due on Monday. 3 more assignments to go before the semester is over already!
On Tuesday we went into the city again to the Queen Victoria Market. It's an outdoor market that is open everyday. There was so much fresh produce, cheap clothing, and a lot of jewelry. It was fun to walk around and don't worry we bought mostly souvenirs for our families so the money was well spent :) After, we went to the beach and sat by the water. It was a nice, autumn day out so it was relaxing to just sit and hang out. Some of our guy friends met up with us a little later so we hung out on the beach at night and had a few drinks.
We're trying to make everyday productive since our trip is slowly coming to a close. Sarah only has 2 more weeks left already!! :(
talk to everyone soon!
Sounds like a wonderful celebration and great shopping trip. So glad all is going so well for you both. Enjoy these last few weeks. Love, Mom
