First off let me say, that I am still keeping and going to continue to write on THIS BLOG. However, as most of you know about my upcoming studying abroad experience, I wanted to mix things up a bit and start another blog... It is only temporary as you will see and I still will continue blogging on both sites. Hope you guys enjoy this new idea as much as I am, ha! Love.
CHECK OUT THE NEW (aussie-style) SITE, G'DAY MATE!

Recent Happenings
Wow, Lots of excitement/events have happened since my last post! I decided I would let the pictures do the talking. But first, a few thank you's are due...
Thank you again to all my wonderfuly family and friends that showed me support and excitement regarding my most recent adventure (Australia). Thank you, thank you. I will be more than happy to hear any advice or ideas over these next few months of planning. The list of "things to do" once I'm there has begun!
Also, thank you for your thoughts and prayers for my nana who underwent back surgery today. After many long hours spent at the hospital (and still here), the doctor came back with a great report saying the surgery couldn't have gone better!
And now, I'm back in Oklahoma for a short time to help take care of my grandmother and plan our family reunion. Summer fun part 2 begins, now!

And the decision is.... AUSTRALIA!
Let's put another shrimp on the barbie mate...
I'm going to Australia kids! I met with my study abroad advisor today and we decided on a destination, and Australia it is. Since I unfortunately speak no other language besides english, I want to travel somewhere that obviously speaks the same language as I do. We had it narrowed down between Scotland and Australia, but I feel like this is the place for me. I am SO BEYOND EXCITED!
If all goes according to plan, I will continue my dietetic studies at the University of Wollongong. You pronounce it, Wool-n-gong, ha! It is about 50 miles south of Sydney (an hour train ride) and the main campus has many views overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
I don't want to get too far ahead of myself here. There is still A LOT of paper work, money, and time invested ahead of me but I know it will all be worth it once I'm there. I plan to go in the spring of 2011. Let the preparation begin!
Main goal: pet a kangaroo. Kidding! Sorta...
