i am terrible with titles

well...since my last update a few things have happened...
first and most exciting issss:::

saturday 27 February, 2010---
gay lesbian mardis gras paradeeeee!
this day was absolutely stellar!!!
we started the day by heading out to bondi beach.
it was so warm and lovely and beautiful!
after the beach we walked back to our hotel and stopped at the mall for MARDIS GRAS COSTUMES!
((facebook has the documentation))
we then decked ourselves up and took the train...which was quite hilarious, considering we were the only mardis gras dressed people on the train...down to the parade.
this is when we realized that most people watching the parade were NOT as dressed up as us.
which essentially made us even more psyched on it.
countless people came up to us to take pictures with us or of us.
Some news media took our pictures too!
and a Taiwanese newstation even recorded us with their news anchor and she taught us to say hello taiwan and some other taiwanese phrase that i can't really remember at the moment. soooo...i have officially been on the taiwan national news, pretty rad.
we didn't get to the parade early enough to really see anything, unfortunate, i know.
but we met a lot of fun people and had a great night.
i am pretty sure we wlaked about a zillion miles...and i wore heels...i have the blisters to prove it.

monday 01 march, 2010---
this was my first day of schoooooool!!!
the lectures started this week but, but the tutorials (like a smaller group where you participate and talk about the material and such) start next week.
sooo on monday i only had two classes - normally i have 5...it's a loooong and rough day for sure.
but my classes sound great so far, a lot of work, but interesting.
the classes i am enrolled in are:
fundamentals of marketing
managing organisations and people
australian economic development
& global business environment
yayyyy!
:]
and my schedule basically looks like class on monday straight from 10:30 - 7
tuesday one class 4:30 - 6
wednesday two classes 9 - 1

buuuut...i am currently cooking my first fish ever! and the oven just notified me that it is ready to go!
wish me luck!
