Sickness and Happy Two Months!

Honestly, I have very little to talk about but since it was my two month on the 21st, I felt the need to write.  I have been deathly ill for 5 weeks now.  I have this terrible cough that I have had for 5 weeks now.  Since about five other people in my house had bronchitis, they gave me amoxicillin which had no positive effect on me.  Then they tested me for whooping cough which fortunately I do not have  and am now on another antibiotic.  Then I got hives all over my body which sucked big time and I looked like a leper and couldn't do much. 
     However, aside from my awful health in which right now I am taking 10 pills a day, Australia has been pretty good.  I think my house is getting lazy about going out and doing stuff so I haven't really done a whole lot.  I'm trying to motivate my house to take trips with me but I'm coming up short on partakers since people didn't really bring enough money to travel really.  I have this awesome trip planned to go to Tasmania and another trip to Ayers Rock and then take a train to Darwin called "The Ghan" which sounds so epic and so Darjeeling Limited.  But tours cost so much money so I'm trying to rent cars and do things on our own yet I need like four people to split the cost of the renting or else it would be mad expensive.  It is very frustrating but hopefully I'll find time to do all these things. 

     This past weekend I went to an AFL game, Australian Football League, which is also called Footie or Aussie Rules.  Basically it is played with a rugby ball and is on a circle field.  There are four posts on each end (see picture) and a goal through the middle is six points and a goal through the two outside posts are one point.  The players can run a few steps with the ball but then they must either bounce the ball or throw, punch, or kick the ball to another player.  The other player can tackle them, wrestle the ball out of their hands even when they are tackled and down.  Its a really fast paced game and these guys have to be in shape because it looks like a game of tag out there.  It was the last game of the season so I decided to man up through the hives and go.  It was a great game and the Sydney Swans won 114-70!
     This week is pretty hectic for me because I have two papers, one test, and one project this week alone.  I've been busy so I haven't done much more.  My posts keep getting further apart but it is because I've been sick and haven't really done much to write about as you cans see with this blog.  Summer back home is over and my spring is on its way!
