An Update!

My goodness, how time flies. Seems like just yesterday that I was standing in the airport in New York saying goodbye to Dave, Mum and Dad. It's a weird feeling now, looking back, given that so many things have happened both here and in Kingston, and still feeling like time has hardly gone by at all.

Work is still going very well! I am (probably) finishing completely on Wednesday, which is okay by me. Aunt Cass and I are going to Sydney on Wednesday night until Monday night of next week, and I'm thinking that will be fun! Her mum is auctioning her house on Saturday, so we'll be there for that, and we're hoping to go horseback riding as well as shopping and sightseeing.

On Monday of next week we'll arrive home and then Tuesday night is my birthday party! We're having a stereotype themed costume party at Josh's for my 19th! It'll be so fun. Tonnes of people have been invited and I'm thinking tonnes of people will show up, so it should be a pretty awesome night. I'm planning on dressing as a hippie for my costume! It will be great. : )

Wednesday of next week (the 15th - my birthday!) is called Ekka Day. Ekka is like a HUGE fair! Think of the Kingston fair and multiply it by a million. Bec, my boss, described it as "bringing the country to the city." There are heaps of farmers who bring and show their animals, there are fashion shows, rides, music, food, and many other things to do. Anyway, on Wednesday, we'll be going there (since it's a public holiday we're all off!) and spending the day. It sounds like a wonderful time to me!

Next Thursday my aunt and uncle and I will be celebrating my birthday! I'm not sure what's going on yet, but any sort of celebrating is just fine with me! : )

Other than all that, on the 25th of August I am going to Dream World or Movie World (I forget which!) with the Lock Flock and others. And on the 26th we're thinking of having a goodbye BBQ at aunt Cass & uncle Paul's house.

Life is good, as always. : )

I love you all, and even though I'm coming home soon, PLEASE still keep in touch!

Love,

Bec*
