The rain and cloud cover continue and the library is now my second home. The integration of vegetables into at least one meal a day is holding strong. I love cooking but still loathe vegetables, but they are becoming tolerable. However, today I burned my hand pretty badly. The stupid handles on our pots are metal and I, being my clumsy self, forgot and grabbed the handle. How is the burn? Well...let's just say I am currently typing with my left hand. Burns are so uncomfortable. If I take it off ice it burns sooo bad :(.... Aside from my little mishap things are great. We did get another roommate the other day...his name is Josh. He's Australian/Kiwi/Philippines/Spanish. We'll see how it turns out...
I have been running again for the past week and my knee is holding up really well. There is only slight soreness which is completely normal. This week 8 miles is on the program for Friday :) Half marathon February 20th here I come and full marathon by the summer!
School work is currently my life BUT we leave for Melbourne Wednesday and will be gone through Monday! So far these are my plans for the remainder of my trip:
Melbourne: October 7-11
Fraser Island October 22-25 (Hopefully)
Whitsunday Islands: October 27-November 2
Final Exams: November 8, 9, and 12th
New Zealand: November 12-20 (Possibly)
My ticket to go back to the Unites States is for November 21, but I'd really like to make it to New Zealand and participate in the Woofing program. So I might extend my stay and change my flight so I can incorporate it in my trip. Or I may just go to New Zealand right after my finals are over till the day before I leave so I can make it home for Thanksgiving. We'll see how it all plays out.
