New, New, New

With lots of little stresses building up this semester, I am happy to announce things are starting to fall into place.

First we have been on the hunt for new place to live and we have found it. I will have photos soon, but its in Fremantle, a coastal suburb! From the roof we can see a lot of the swan river and the ocean! Its a two bedroom, with washer and dryer! We are technically subletting one of the rooms from a couple who have found a house until the end of October when we have a chance to extend. There is another man in the other room, but we have not met him yet. However, he moves out Oct. 10th and then we are hoping to have a fellow first year also move in with us. 

Green= City Center
Blue = Campus
Red line = Fremantle and actually points to close to our new place
Also if you follow the freeway (darkest yellow/orange line down from perth, past campus you will run right into cockburn where the big mall is. The train also follows that highway)

Next new thing is: A NEW CAR!! :) My very first car without my parents cosigning or helping! :D OH NO I AM GROWING UP!! It is a blue Ford KA, 2002, two door hatchback and 5speed MANUAL!! SOOOOO EXCITED!! Its the tiniest little go-cart ever, but I really enjoy it! It also only had 58,000km on it! I am in love! :) 
and we parked right next to the green platypus pole! :) way cooler than plain letters to remind you where you parked!




My iphone 3's battery has been slowing holding less and less charge and then last night it decided that it didn't  want to charge at all anymore! Thankfully the apple store still had some 3's still in the back just for this purpose! They cleaned the dock and realized it was the mechanics of the phone itself and so I got a brand new one! SOO HAPPY they could replace it because there is no way I could afford a new iphone outright, optus (my phone network) doesn't offer iphones for prepaid services so I was seriously thinking I would have to switch back to an android phone and was sooo sad! Mostly for the fact that I like that my photos sync through photo stream so I don't have to deal with the hassle of transferring them to the computer/ipad!

Lastly, and the most exciting! Yes more exciting than the cutest little car.

MY NEW STETHOSCOPE!!!!!! Purple tubing and purple pen light!! 

I think the little doggie might be dead.... :P






And to end it all...not another new toy, but I did get to play with horses and clean out their hooves for the first time, put a halter on one in a pen for the first time, relearnt what all the different brushes were for and what order and direction you brush them in, and how to put an anti-rearing bit in their mouth! :)
Don't mind my best friend looking super bored with herself.. she is one of those "horsey" people.... haha not a snob just owns a cute little boy horse and so she was our horse handling master!

  1. You mean a gelding (castrated boy horse) (probably not a stallion - intact male horse). Another horsey friend :) But definitely not a snob and sadly doesn't own any horses :( Jessi :)

    P.S. Awesome that you got a car and purple stethoscope!
