Weather

Watching the t.v with footage of the hurricane is amazing. I don't know how much info is making it to Australia, but it looks as if the city of New Orleans has been decimated. Most of it is underwater. They are calling this hurricane the worst in history. Thats a pretty big call.

In Charlottesville the weather channel is predicting tornadoes in this area tonight. Scary.

Short Note

To Andy's comment on last post- there will be a DVD...

Starting Uni

Now that I am here and settled, I will start classes tomorrow. There were some issues regarding enrolment, esp. the fact that international students get no late payment fee consessions allowing them to sign up for classes while the money is transfering into the states. The campus - grounds as they call it here - is beautiful, plenty of trees and landscaping and old well maintained buildings. I am looking forward to seeing tomorrow what the classes are like and how they rate in comparison to Melbourne. I don't know if they will be at the same level.

Only 6 days till Mark goes home. I don't want him to leave. But I am also looking forward to making my way here and surviving on my own for a while. I look forward to staying in the dorms and meeting people that are in the same college.

I am in the marching band. The game is next saturday, and I am not sure about the marching infront of so many people. I am sure that I will get lost. At least there are 4 rehearsals between here and there. The marching is amazing, looks so complex. People and instruments everywhere. There is so much energy in it. They are excited to have me and love the accent.

It's late here and time for bed.
