Getting Ready to Go Down Under

I am home sick from work today and I think that it is because I am stressing myself out with this whole 'move to Australia for a year' thing. I don't recommend moving to Australia with 3 weeks notice. There are a whole lot of things to do that you don't even think about. Justin and I are almost done I think with all of the logistics. Packing is our next item of business to take care of. Thankfully, Daniel (the guy from Australia Justin is exchanging with) will be living in our apartment so we don't have to move all of our furniture and big things. We are pretty much just bringing our clothes. The plan is to just buy everything we need there. Meinhardt is very nice and have found us a furnished aparment to live in. Our big purchase will be a car. It is going to be wierd buying a car we will be driving just for a year. And we are going to have to learn how to drive on the wrong side of the road! No more manual transmission cars for us! I am not that coordinated. Soon we will be on our way to Australia. April 14th is going to come very soon! I am just not looking forward to the LONG flight over there!
