38 degrees? Bring it on.

Still in Australia, still enjoying the heat and the sun. It's been beautiful :)

ther than lazing about, doing nothing, I took a thrilling trip down South to Busselton. This was really just an excuse to do nothing but go to the beach and lie by the pool. We also went horse riding, which resulted in my sister becoming BFF's with a Perthonality, a natural horsemanship guy who is apparently quite famous in these parts. I couldn't help thinking he is one of those people who was born a hundred years too late. He would ha e enjoyed being a cowboy I think. Have spent the last few days doing noting but my stupid moot work, which has involved me going to my old uni library, which I SWORE never to do again. The mott is forcing me to do all kinds of things I didn't want to do!

I also caught up with some of my old uni friends, in particular Katie who is a BAD INFLUENCE. That's all I'll say about that.

Being at home has made me realise the things I miss and the things I don't miss. I don't miss constant sweating but I do miss the warmth. I don't miss Australian flags on cars, but I do miss the way it smells when it rains. I don't miss the transport system, but I do miss those perfect clear days when the ocean seems to go on forever. I don't miss being surrounded by Australian accents, but I do miss my family (who's Australian accents aren't as bad as everyone else's). So it's a balancing act I suppose.

Going back to London on the 26th, provided that it's not snowing and that Heathrow is open. Not sure what I'm hoping for in that sense...
