Ello y'all!

Well, we have officially been Aussies for TWO WEEKS! I think it’s safe to say that we are still in shock that we are even here! These past weeks have been the absolute best times of our lives. Not only have we met some of the most amazing people, we have made great memories. Apparently all of our local friends love our accents, who would have known, people love American accents! Especially when we use the Texas word known as “y’all”, this gives them a good giggle when they hear us say it. We are even getting lessons from our Aussie friends how to, in our case, attempt to talk in an accent… we will have to keep working on that because it sounds more British than anything! Give us a little bit and we will be pros at this lingo!

Meet some of our awesome new friends!

Anyways, this past week has consisted of the busy but the fun filled O-week. It’s a combination of sessions, toga parties, free food, registering for classes, delicious beverages and meeting new people. Lets just say, we’ve had a pretty good time! This coming Monday is our first day of classes, and mark my words, I’m actually REALLY excited! Yes, I said it, I am stoked to get to sit in a classroom and listen to my professor’s lectures… That might be the only time that comes out of my mouth. Y’all should be proud! 

With that being said, I would like to say sorry to our family in friends back in the states, but… we will not be coming home to you. That’s right, I think Adri and I will just reside in the beautiful Australia for the rest of our lives. Maybe we will open a coffee shop or even a beach bar! Who knows, but I think that’s our final decision :) Please send care packages including our dogs and Mexican food this way. Thanks, much love!
