Last week, I got to go to the print shop where everything the design studio I’m interning at gets printed. I can sometimes be a little obsessive about how things work, so it was really cool to see exactly what every command we do in the software does to the printer. They also used some of the pictures I took on their blog. Then we (the American interns) went to Moreton Island this past...

Like I said, last weekend was pretty sweet. I still have not been on an over-night backpacking trip, but I will still jump at the chance to go camping. Still, I consider camping to be kinda too luxurious for sleeping outside. I think I’d be fine with a sleeping bag and some form of fire-starter. And maybe a hammock. But I would definitely want to try that in the summer (like it is at home),...

A few hours

Leaving in about two hours. Some things I had to make sure I got done this week: go to Sonic twice in one day haircut check which way the toilets flush I think I’m as ready as I can be. Last night literally felt like Christmas Eve.  I’ll leave the U.S. about 2:30am EST Friday, and land in Australia about 6:00pm EST Friday (I think). First post from Australia will probably come...
