So we’ve arrived at the end of another semester. Exams are done and now all that’s left is the tense wait for results. It’s a time of tension, celebration and sadness. On the one hand you’ve come out of the semester alive and mostly intact but on the other hand some of the friends you’ve made will probably return to their home countries. Even temporary partings can be a bit sad and it’s going to be a few months before you get to see some of your friends again.

But one the plus side it’s the holidays!

The first obstacle this break will be moving into the new house. I’ve finally had enough of the Village and secured a room on the outside. So in the next few weeks I need to box up my entire life and move it 20 minutes down the road as well as tidy the flat I’ve been living in. Moving is always a bit of a drag but I am actually quite excited this time. I’ll be moving in with some old friends so there hopefully won’t be that awkward adjustment period when they discover how many bad habits I have.

Secondly is the exciting Supanova expo coming to Perth. I think everyone that reads this blog, all two of you, know how big a geek I am and therefore how big a deal this is. Supanova is a pop culture expo with some pretty cool guests and activities that will be hitting Perth in two weeks. I’ll actually be volunteering at the event so I might end up kidnapping most of the stars that are visiting, we’ll just have to see. I encourage you to check out the website at: http://www.supanova.com.au/

Finally I will be making a trip up to Sydney! This was originally going to be a proper road-trip but time constrictions mean I have to force everything I want to do in Sydney into one week. I’ll be travelling with Kieran, the friend I’ve privately nominated as the least likely to murder me in my sleep, and he knows the ins and outs of Sydney but if you have a suggestion of something cool to see/fun to do/good to eat while there then please leave it in the comments below!

If you’ll excuse me I really should be getting off to bed as, while this is the break, I still need to be up at 5 tomorrow morning for work.
