42nd Street Musical...

We (Anika, Janina and I) went to the musical 42nd street which was quite good. It was put on by 3rd year students at WAAPA (Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts). Afterwards we went to Little Creatures..oh I'm going to miss that place..for their amazing hamburgers.

Perth Panorama from Kings Park!

Here's a panorama photo taken from Kings Park. Enjoy! :)





Belgium Beer Café!

Unit 12 (and Janina) made an appearance at the Belgium Beer Café in Perth CBD. Funny story however, I was the only one to drink a beer. The beer was good as well as the food.

Stella!
"This beer is the reference beer for the real beer connoisseur"

Yum!

Alex grabbing the beer off the wall. :D

Manneken-pis
I'll just let Wikipedia explain the legend: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manneken_Pis

The "Perth Eye"...it's actually pretty small.

Some Perthian Palms by the Swan River.

Black Swans...fake ones. :)

Anika at the Bell Tower doing a dance?

Have you done your laundry?

I was there...

Pretty cool back street.
Well that's the longest post I've done in a while. We're heading to Kings Park today! more pictures to follow... I leave Perth in a week! I'm both happy and sad. I know my return home will involve drinking beer with Logan.

ECU Student Village...Panorama of the best Court!

I took a panorama of the court in which I've stayed in Australia since February 2. It's a pretty awesome place..my room is on the right side in the far corner - Unit 12, Room 4. I reckon this is the best court ever...this is where most of the most memorable events of my stay happened! I'll miss you all...
As you can see it's a pretty nice little place.
If you want a bigger version of the photo, I have one...It's just too big to upload.

More Spiders! and Perth!

Well I found another spider, and took a few shots of Perth at night and the awesome movie theaters they have here.


Spider #2..this one's name is Fred.
I found him in the sink in the morning, he was pretty scared and tried to hide. I caught him, took some pictures and set him free before the girls could vacuum him up.


Perth..a shot from the bus stop by my school at night. It's a busy city...not!


Perth Downtown (aka CBD).


The HUGE movie theatre in the city..oh how old school. I should have pirated the movie.

School...
Maybe I should mention school..I often forget my cover for being here. It's going very well.. got HD's (High-distinctions >= 80%) on 3 of my big final assignments. I'm done 3 final exams and only one left next week! Well that's boring..so I'm done.
See you soon Canada!!!

Perth..Bugs..People..Bread!

So, I am up late blogging again. I can't seem to sleep so I shall blog a few things that have been happenin'. Nothing too exciting besides a lot of uni work going on. Everybody is just finishing up assignments and then the dreaded examination period comes. I'm not too worried actually...should be just fine.

The days are passing and I am trying to make sure I see everything I want to see in Perth before I head back to Canada! It'll be a while before I dare take another 30 hour flight over to this small island...especially with all the people I have to now go visit in other parts of the world.


A main intersection in the city, and one of the tallest buildings in Perth.


A huntsman spider which was in the bathroom...this one isn't deadly but
it's getting cold and they are seeking refuge.

Hanna...always playing hacky sack.

The clouds were pink as the sun set.
I was too lazy to go take a photo of the sun but this turned out good.

Nilesh cookin' some curry chicken..yum! It sooo goood.

I saved the best for last. Anika doing what she does...
...eating bread.

Uh-oh. A post without a short joke about Janina? hm.. well this blog post will be done shortly! ha-ha

A little background about her...she is one of my flatmates...oh wait, actually she isn't?! Well anyway, she basically lives in our unit - because we're so cool. Oh and did I mention she is short? What will I do when I have nobody to bug for being short? I guess I'll just have to send her a short message on facebook :o).
