I Come From A Land Down Under

I'm back! :(

Australia was incredible! Oh my gosh. I don't even know where to begin. Probably with the fact that it is now 2:13a.m. and I should go to bed to try to alleviate this jet lag. Nah.

Okay, I have figured out how to keep this post nice and short.

Here are the yucky things that happened to me in Australia:
1. I got a bizarrely random sunburn our first day out on the beach. Yes, I applied sunscreen. No, I cannot explain why I ended up looking like a mixed up jig-saw puzzle of the Japanese flag. (You know, red and white?)
2. I got stung by a Blue Bottle, a type of Portugese Man-of-War. I still have the marks beside my knee from where it happened.
3. C-Los abandoned me on the beach because she was so embarrassed by my wailing and carrying-on over the sting.
4. I randomly cut the top of one of my knuckles and bled all over. I did it with my carry-on bag. My only explanation for this is: My carry-on hated me because I overpacked it, and was seeking revenge.
5. Went on nature walk. At 6:00 a.m.
6. Randomly started bleeding out my foot during nature walk. I suppose it was due to some sort of nature attacking me. I don't want to think too deeply about it. There were some really nasty bugs that we encountered on the walk. *creepy*
7. The ocean got fresh with me by pulling down the top of my swimsuit. As I was frantically trying to put everything back together, the ocean decided to take me for a drag. I think it was mad that I refused it's request to remain topless.

My next post will be about how awesome Australia was. I will also have pictures! Yay yay!

This book is like the movie Serendipity. Wow! the first time around, still pretty great for consequent readings.
