November 2008 Update
Here I am writing my last report... on my last
month here. I have to say I feel quite sad about leaving this
amazing country.
As you can imagine, within this month I have done nothing but to
enjoy as much as I can and visit beautiful places. My friends have
already planned a lot of activities to spend time together and have
fun...
I just wanted to thank Peace Scholarship Program for this
espectacular opportunity which has helped me a lot in many ways.
Through this experience I have grown up and become independent as
well as confident.
I am leaving to Chile on december 6th. very early in the morning. I
feel sad, leaving my friends behind since they were my family in
these five months I spent here. However, I value the relationships
I have built up here and I am sure I will never forget any of
them.
Once again, thanks for the chance of becoming a better person for
this world and society.
Cheers,
Nadia.
October 2008 Update
I am very sorry for not sending the monthly
report before but I was very busy with uni stuff and I completely
forgot it.
Anyways, I hope I am not too late.
As I told you in the previous monthly report, me and my friends
were planning on going to Great Ocean Road, we went during the
semester break and had an awesome time.
We rent a cool ride and stayed at a nice hut, had a very nice bbq
by the beach, we also went for walks in the woods and spent some
time walking around the place looking for yummy things to eat. I
have to say I had a great time and my best holidays ever!!
Sadly, we had to come back to reality and to the huge amount of
work that uni was saving just for us. :(
This month has been crazy at uni. lots to do and to write... I only
wish it ends soon!! and that I can live to enjoy the
spoils...
Well, I have no more to tell and now I have to go back to this
essay that is driving me craaazy!!
cheers,
Nadia
September 2008 Update
Within September I've got to say that I haven't
had much time to hang out and go out with my friends, actually I've
had a very busy month at Uni, lots of assignments and tests to be
done and sat.
I've gotta say this is the first time I'm experiencing lack of
sleep over studies instead of having fun! ;)
But it's all good, life at La Trobe can be so interesting even if
you are just studying because you get to share work team
experiences lot of hard work in order to keep up with the subjects
and teachers expectations. uf!
But is not all studies. I have also have some time with friends, in
fact tonight at my residence we hav a goneaway party for one of our
residents, her name is Anjana, she's from India. So I guess I'll be
atteding the event on account that today is my first day of
holidays!!!! so exciting. Oh! I almost forgot, since I'm on
holidays now, me and some friends will be going to Great Ocean Road
on monday till wednesday, I'm really looking forward to going and
seeing beautiful landscapes and having an awesome time.
August 2008 Update
Here I am, sending my monthly report as
usual.
I'm glad to tell you I'm doing great! Now I am completely
established and integrated to Australia and its habitants!
Last month I went to the zoo and have a lot of fun, I went with
another peace scholarship girl from Chile, Carolina. We were able
to touch Kangaroos and take pictures of Koalas, it was
amazing!
My studies are doing great as well, I've done all my quizzes
getting prettygood marks! so I'm relaxed for the moment! ;)
This time I'm attaching some pics. Hope you like them.
