where I live

I thought I would show you guys some pictures of my room today!

Here's my bed and yes I have a carpet on a carpet. It was cheap and it gives the room more "dept"...

This masterpiece is my wonderful "chandelier" that doesn't work right now cause I think there's no light bulbs. But it looks pretty!

I thought I would live my Australian life with no backpack so I left mine back in Norway. But I was wrong, I need one. So I bought this beauty and couldn't be happier!

And to spoil myself even more I found this awesome t-shirt after school one day and I just had to have it!

waking up with flowers

Okey, so a lot has happened since I last blogged. We've finally moved in the house, but there are still no furniture! So far we got one small ass table and six heaters. We also started school this week, I thought it all would go a little bit slow, but BAM new project right in our faces! So right now I'm kinda stressed cause, first I don't have a student card yet, we don't have any printers, I don't know where to buy paper and I'm to lazy to start this project right now.

Our timetable is almost done and lucky me I got Wednesdays off! I tried to sleep in and catch up with all the activities we've done the last couple of days, but at around 10:30 am I got flowers delivered at the door. I got super surprised and of course it was from Chris!^^ Made my day!

Oh, we still need a lot for the house so I didn't have any vase to put the flowers in so I made one out of our coca cola bottles!

(still sorry for BAD quality pictures, but hang in there my camera will come)

What what, a beach House i say!

Super big awesome update: today July 12Th we got our selves a house! A beach house actually! It's really really big and will fit all six of us! So hopefully we'll be able to get some stuff tomorrow at ikea and maybe move in by Thursday! This is such a relief, it's been really stressful with all the house/apartment hunting! I took one picture of the house on the outside, but I'm not able to get it uploaded for some reason, so here's the link to the ad of the house,

Almost dead

Translation

I'm still alive! But almost dead. Right now we are still at base backpacking here in st.Kilda. We have been house and apartment looking, but since we are six people it's been pretty hard! I know updating has been pretty bad, but it'll be better when I've settled in!

Timetravel

So after almost two days of flying we finally arrived here in Melbourne! We didn't have any place to stay so we decided to ask the tourist information desk at the airport. The lady found a very nice and inexpensive accommodation hotel in the middle of Chinatown! Somerset Gordon Heights.

When we arrived the hotel our rooms where not yet finished so we where stuck exploring the city for four hours. We found a good burger place called grill'd!

We spent the next couple of hours at Starbucks and buying pre-paid cellphones. I also found a very cute environmental friendly bag that will come in good hand when we find a place to live.

It's in the middle of winter time here so it's pretty cold. I regret not bringing some of my warmer jackets, but no worries guys they will reach Melbourne as soon as I have an address! Enrollments are starting tomorrow and hopefully we'll find an apartment or a house soon!
