house hunting

So we went to meet a DUSA (Deakin University Student Association) rep today to figure something out for housing and things are starting to all fall into place. She is basically going to be looking for a place for us that suits our needs and then is going to take us around to them. So no place yet, but I think we are going to be going around next week. Also some exciting news...we have been told that when we get a cell or mobile we can receive international calls for free, which is awesome! We are back at the hostel today just relaxing and trying to get things all organized. We are going to head out soon to get some sandles for Jesse sinse the ones he was wearing looked like a dog tried to eat them. We are still trying to get used to the money here, $10 are blue and $5 red or pink so it's a little confusing looking into your wallet and thinking you are pulling out a $5 when it's $10. Also the $2 coins are about the size of a penny which makes you overlook them altogether.

That's all the news I can think of for right now, so until next time.
