Studying

So it's the time of the year where exams are lurking.
And of course I am making every kind of excuse to not study.

Such as:
1. Watching a new TV series 
(The Walking Dead)
2. Planning my holidays 
3. Relearning how to play the guitar
4. Looking for jobs
5. Looking for places to rent
6. Watching all the vines on youtube

I also decided to start blogging which will keep me occupied from doing what I'm actually supposed to be doing.

Yesterday I thought it would be a good idea to have a study session with a good friend of mine and of course this was not the case and over the period of, I think, 5 hours.. I'd say we studied for about 1 hour.
Even though it was a good catch up session, the studying just went out the window. 
After a while we decided that we weren't being productive and convinced each other that we'd go home and study.
So I went home, made dinner, watched some telly and pretty much avoided even looking at the direction of my untouched  and dusted books.
Since I knew I wasn't going to study, my friend and I resulted to have another catch up session because it had been so long (2/3 hours) since we last saw each other.
We met at 10pm and headed to the city for a "quiet" drink.

We ended up pretty much walking across the whole of Brisbane, discovering different bars which was pretty fun actually. We bumped into many friends on the way until we  finally ended up at a bar/club at around 1am, got some drinks and just chatted away until 4am. 


It's funny how long girls can just talk about such random girly things for ages.

Anyway, yesterday was fun but not productive in the slightest which has led to today's unproductivity as well.
Tomorrow.
Tomorrow I will study.
Well, I kind of have to as my exam is on Monday.




My Fresh Start in Oz

I decided to make this blog to write about my new adventurous life.

Usually when people get sick of a place they tend to move, maybe to a different country, maybe to a different city or maybe even just down the road... well I decided to move exactly 10,262 miles in a COMPLETELY different continent from where I was originally.

The UK to Australia

London to Brisbane

Miserable Rain to Bright and Beautiful Sunshine

Middle of the World to Middle of Nowhere

Essentially, I moved over here to study and, I guess, to start FRESH. 

I have already been here for about 10 months... oh wow.. already.. I know everyone says this but time DOES go by and it honestly has felt like only a few days since I've been here. Maybe because Australia is still a bit new to me and maybe because I haven't established what I'm really supposed to be doing here (apart from studying obviously). 

So I guess I might be a bit lost right now, I am studying in a fantastic university on a degree that is very promising but something is missing. I really don't know. I mean, I know I have a lot of opportunities ahead of me and if I try hard enough I'll get to where I want to be etc etc etc....... WELL I have NO idea where I want to be, what I want to do and how to be what I don't even know what. Which is a fabulous start, I know!

But I guess I have to start somewhere, right?

That's why I've decided to..... start learning Spanish! (which is very random but.... whatever)
And because, well, why not! plus I think it'll be fun. 

Possibly (fingers crossed that I don't get bored and just give up) in future posts I will be talking/writing in el Espagnol. Sie sie amigo!

Adios
