So this morning I woke up way too early, I was very annoyed with myself. 6 am! for no reason. I went down to have some brekky but my bananas were rotten. I waited for Rox to get up and we walked to wooly's to get some food. we found this awesome shop called the reject shop where i got trail mix, sunglasses (they acll them sunnies here), a re-useable bag with the australian flag on it, rice cakes and a toothbrush all for just 13$! bargain. also awesome name for a store in my opinion. very understated but honest as well.
then i went to the tattoo shop (don't freak out mom!) to get a new nosering because the one rachel bought me snapped in two. after i got it, rox decided she would get her nose pierced! so she booked an appointment and we set off back to the hostel to eat some lunch. we got about 2 thirds of the way home when we realized it was already 11 and her appointment was at 1130, so we turned around and went back. my bags were so heavy it was killing me. good workout though i suppose.
i have spent the rest of the day hanging out in the tv room. started out watching a german movie with english subtitles called the stranger in me. super weird. a guy who works here came in and was like "there are about a thousand channels here, why are you watching this rubbish?" so he put it on MTV. i ended up falling asleep for a couple of hours anyway. Our bus to Rainbow leaves at 430, so we will be leaving soon. I'm excited to move on. Mooloolaba is our stop the day after rainbow and then Noosa.
I can't wait to learn to surf! I think Mooloolaba will be good for that.
love!

Get ready to hop on board this train of thought: Rob and I were watching an episode of Gilmore Girls involving Dean having to wear tails to a black-tie cotillon, and I told Rob I'd love for him to wear tails someday, and he said the last time he did that was when he was a ringbearer at age 6, which prompted me to find a picture he'd given me of that very event, and it was in an album with pictures from my 2nd trip to Oz, and I found a picture of a road sign on the way to the Gold Coast via the Pacific highway which also listed Surfers Paradise (the northernmost point I have been to in Australia) which is just down the coast from Noosa Heads! Also, one of our friends just got married in Canberra yesterday, and we skyped Rob's parents last night. Miss you and love you lots!
