The big TWO-ONE!!!

Hip hip - HOORAY!!! I survived my 21st birthday! And although it's not quite as big of a deal here in Australia as it is back home in the states, it is still a big deal to turn the big two-one. It was so nice to have the day off from class and be able to spend the morning doing what I do best, shopping, and then spending time with my "family" here in the afternoon. Our family-friends threw a lovely barbie for me with a delicious homemade chocolate cake for dessert - and of course plenty of wine and champagne. The entire family was there, from little baby Zoe to great-granddad Paul. It was a lovely time, minus the fact that I had to wake up the next morning at 6:30am to catch the train back to Uni to be on time for my 8:30am class. I can't wait to enjoy a beer back home this summer!

On another note - it is now mid-semester break! Good Friday is a public holiday here in WA, and I don't have class on Wednesday or Thursday, so I've been on break now for three days, and have been enjoying the beach, that is for sure! I know part of my week is dedicated towards studying and sleeping, but who knows what else there is to come! I can not wait for Easter, to celebrate here, although I do miss my family and friends back home. Hope y'all have a blessed day!

Cheers,
Megan

Me and all the grandkids of the family friends. They have taken to calling me "Auntie Mimi" as the youngest, Zoe, in the pink, can't quite say "Megan" just yet.
