All I remember is this, ... (my mind seems to function in a bullet point format these days...)
It was May, and our assessments were due.
Then it was intensives.
Then we drove down to Melbourne.
Drove back up.

the photo above is a reflection of my life at the moment...
after a couple crazy weeks my desk finally cleared up. from assessment mode to intensive week-- i began my ten-day-holiday off to Melbourne! i absolutely love that city. it always makes me get the butterflies. it's like that frou-frou feeling like you're falling for someone and you can't sort out your feelings, you don't know what to do with them, and so you walk around with a special glow and you smile with a special spark in your eyes. aaaah... melbourne!

i'm so glad i got to spend some time in my aussie hometown. it is beautiful. and i don't mind the cold weather at all. hot chocolate, under-the-covers, snuggle weather! i will post some photos when i get around to uploading photos of my short-yet-sweet holiday.

this school break is a much needed breather and i'm already starting to feel refreshed. i love it.

tomorrow, i'm off to hunter valley. will post photos of those too! (i know i've been slow on updates... but like said, i've been having the craziest weeks EVAAA!)

ciao ciao. xxoo.
