This morning Cailene came over to my house; she wanted to hear me play guitar and see if I could teach her something. It was fun! We didn't stay that long, though, because we had to catch a train. She did say it was her...
Today I went to La Perouse (a bit further south in Sydney) with Cynthia, Sunny, Angela, Cailene, and Cindy. We all had a picnic there with some snacks and games. We also walked around the pier and coastal rocks. Big waves and...
September 3: In the morning, I had a neuroscience tutorial. I got some pasta for lunch at the Courtyard Cafe and went to the lab, where I luckily finished fairly quickly. One problem, though: I found out we'd be having groups…

Slept through my alarm again, oops. That afternoon I volunteered at a USU "sandwich making" event for children at school without lunch. It was quite a funny experience and gave me a sense of accomplishment. I was one of…
Today I participated in the Wastefighters Society's coastal cleanup walk. We (a group of about 20-25 people) gathered at Circular Quay (not pronounced "kweej" but like the English "key"), where I saw an Aboriginal musician playing music. Again…
