On Wednesday I went for a day trip to see the Opera house with Kitty, Gerdien, Janine, and Maggie. We walked for a half an hr. to get to the train. We then took an hr. long train to "downtown" Sydney. Walked for about an hr. to see the Opera house... walked across the bridge... took the train back and fell asleep. haha It was one of the most beautiful things I'd ever seen. There are A LOT of pictures on facebook if you want to see them. Janine and I are getting to know each other really well. Today we went to the "shopping center" or mall to buy me a teddy bear. I needed it, yes it was a NEED.

Prayer request:
Please pray that my night terrors will go away and that I'll get a good night's sleep. :) Thank you for your prayers :) :) :) :) :) :) Classes start Monday night :)
