Happy Labour Day!

We had today (May 5th) off for labour day....Queensland's labour day. I guess in the states we would spell it as "labor" but in Australia they put the "u" in words like colour and "s" in words like specialised. I really shouldn't be writing a blog right now because I have a big essay due on Friday, but just thought I'd write a short one. Only 4 weeks left of classes (which is kind of stressful since the final exams and projects are worth so much) and 8 weeks until I leave to go back to the states. Hard to believe that I've nearly been here for 3 months now. It's going by too quickly! I will be away this weekend on a field trip with my biodiversity class to Undara (4 hours west of Cairns), which is pretty much an outback habitat. I'll write a more informative/interesting blog when I get back from that!
