A Wal Joins the Adventure

The three of us have convinced Ashley (better known as Awal) to join the study abroad opportunity in Australia! Now the girls out number the guys! After A Wal decided that she was going, a few of us sat down and discussed what classes we thought we might take in Australia. I've thought about it and I have my classes narrowed down to Australian Life & Culture and Marine Biology in Australia as well as Astronomy 100 and EdPsy 351: Adolescent Psychology online. Should be an easy schedule so I can enjoy everything!!



The second night of SCUBA has been completed. Mike, Angie and I actually got to "scuba" last night with the full buoyancy compensators and tanks, regualtor, fins, and mask. Even though the tank and all the accesories weigh well over 60 pounds, you are completly bouyant in the water. It's a really cool feeling as you roll around or flip in the water while watching everything around you.



Crikey! I think it's appropriate to end this post with a tribute to Mike's Australian Idol, Steve Irwin: The Crocodile Hunter. R.I.P. Mate!

I didn't see SCUBA listed on your schedule for Australia classes. Is there an underwater class you can take? Like basket weaving? Make sure you ask how to make nice with stingrays.
