My Address

This is mostly for me so that if I need my address somewhere all I need to do is get on the internet. But feel free to send large amounts of cash or maybe a MacBook pro too, I'm in need of one.

UQ Campus

The Bus stop on the other side of campus from college. The bridge behind is just for pedestrians and city bus that leads to city Central.
This part of campus is mostly lakes, grass and other colleges. I have a class in that big building on the left.
The main walkway through campus.
The backside of the Great Court.
The bus stop that's right next to my college. The Great Court is though that archway in the center of the picture.
Tennis courts and Rugby fields.
The Great Court.About a 1/5 of the giant Union where there are numerous restaurants, shops, a bar, post office, book store, computer stores, and many other various stores/services.

International House

The Cafeteria.
Part of my walk from International House to Campus.
Int. House has the biggest dorms out of all the colleges on campus.

My view outside my windows from my desk. I'm on the third floor, but the main floor is the secnod.
Here are a few pictures of my dorm room and the college or as Americans know it dorm buildings.

Destruction of my MacBook Pro

So I spilt liquid on my MacBook Pro. The estimate to repiar it was about $1500 in which at this point basically every part would get replaced. The tech said that problems might still exist if I went with this option and seriouslly suggested just getting a new computer. I took his advice and am over here in Australia living without a computer (using these ghetto ones in the Internation House computer Lab) for a month. After transfering the data from my old hard drive to my external and trying to get anything for any parts what was left is a rubbish computer to destroy!

Soiree!!!



What better way to advertise than colored men and flag girls? If I saw guys running campus acting like maniacs covered head to toe in blue, green, yellow or red then they would have my attention. Same goes for girls wearing flags handing out flyers. This is just one of the ways that we are promoting our multicultural event "Soiree."
