Time is flying by!

Ive been in Australia for about two and a half weeks now. :) Still all is well, Im having a blast. School is well ya know, school. On Tuesday we had softball for gym and that was a lot of fun, the school is actually starting up a softball team cause im there. Ill be their pitcher. :) Ive been pretty excited about that. Last weekend was the Rotary weeked in Newcastle, that was good too. We went on a yacht and went through and adventure park where we went on ziplines and stuff. :) It was great. But what is weird is that last weekend i got homesick a little for the first time. Not homesick for america, but homesick for gilgandra and the gardiners. <3 Thats the only homesickness ive had so far. Also last weekend i had to do a speech, it was a three minute speech and everyone seemed to really enjoy it. It was in front of Rotarians and host families. On our way back from Newcastle, which was like a 5 hour drive we stopped in Singleton to get a bit to eat and they wanted to show me the park. At the park I saw TONS of bats in the trees! They were so gross and all just hanging up in the trees. :/ I was running back to the car fast cause i didnt want to get pooped on and Brenton trips me! I went down hard, they were laughing their butts off. Haha. And then i had bat crap all over my arm! It was so gross! :/ But now its pretty funny to think of. Wednesday we left school a little early ( I got to skip lawnbowls! :) Haha ) and we went shopping in Dubbo. That was good. And Ive still been running every week night. Sometimes I do abb workouts, and Vikki just laughs at me. Friday night i helped out at the Grease play that Gilgandra community put on. The play was really good. And today i woke up and showered, had Stevie over last night, but anyways got a call from Annick and her host parents. Shes from Belgium. They asked if i wanted to come on a picnic and see kangaroos, cows, sheep, lizards, etc. :) It was alot of fun. Now Im really tired and have a big maths assignment to do. :/ Well thats all that happened this week! Cant believe ive already only been here for two weeks. Time is going by way too fast! But Im definately enjoying every second of it.
Will write soon! :)
