Well, just got done with finals tonight and I’ll be heading to EUG tomorrow. It’s a pretty weird feeling, this is my one and only term at OSU this year, Australia is comin fast. I think the plane ticket is for around Feb 10 or so, and it’ll be open ended, so if I like it, who knows, maybe it’ll just be a one-way ticket! Excitement is starting to set in, as well as nervousness and fear. I talked to Sarah last night, who went to Thailand for a year, and she got me super-excited about it. She talked about how it’s gonna change my life and will make me a different person..I’m ready to change. Apparently I don’t have an identity, as it was proven that I am neither a “BRO” nor a “BRAH”.

Sydney should be pretty amazing tho. With a population of a little over 4 million people, it should be pretty crazy. I was checkin out the acts that are gonna be goin through there…pretty high-profile stuff, and they play at the Sydney Opera House, which should be pretty crazy. I’m also pretty stoked about the man shortage in Australia-96,900 more females than men. If I don’t become friendly with some, well, jeeze…I’ll never hear the end of it from BUX 307. Oh, and from now on, BUX 307 includes Big Red…just sayin’.

I think pretty much all I have to do now is apply for housing. I’ll prolly be livin in apartments with other international students from all over the world, which should be a cool experience. I’m not sure about a student visa…I should probably get on that.

It’s startin to feel like this is actually gonna happen-just little things like lookin at AUS travel books in Borders to lookin for boardshorts with my BUX brahs. And for all of those who incredulously asked “WHAT?! You’re not excited yet??…”, well, I’m gettin there, and its starting to feel real…
