Well I went to Cairns to get my PADI, or open water diver certificate. So I started a 5 days course, 2 days theory and pool training. Then living on a boat for 3 days. I can't really describle how amazing this whole thing was. On the boat i started of with doing 4 dives as a student and then wohooo ready to dive myself! so i did 4 learning dives and then 5 or 6 fun dives. And you know what? I actually did a nightdive! how cool is that? It was pretty cool, swimming/diving around in the great barrier reef during nighttime, having flashlights to see.. oh man that was a real expecience! so i spent my christmas posing with Nemo and having small reef sharks up my face! but now i can actually tick off ''diving in the great barrier reef'' of my bucket list, hell yeah! After my 3 days living on a boat i went back to Cairns, had one day just chilling around, went to a swedish cafe and ate some real traditional swedish stuff. haha the owner (who is swedish) even knew im swedish from what i ordered haha, that was pretty fun! then i bought a lot of swedish sweets! hihi sweetsqueen here :P Then one day, i went to Cape tribulation, its like a rainforest, really nice! Then after a week in cairns, i went to Magnetic island to celebrate my new years eve on a fullmoon party... and ooooh i had fun! What an amazing time!  After 2 lovely weeks it was to go back to Brisbane and school... 

 

but.. as i come home, and was ready to start the new year with a new block in school.. and found out i hade one more week off! oh BEST EVER! so.. I had a pretty easy going week, and got bored... So me and my spontaneous self got on a little weekend in Sydney! Haha yes, believe it or not! So i took a 15 hour busride down to sydney, Spent my first day doing some seeightsing and stuff, you know a hop on hop off bus thing, yeah i did that. Went out to Bondi beach for a little while. And then haha there were like a little festival park in the CBD, went there to have a look around and it started raining like crazy! So i went for a walk in the rain, down to the opera house, had a little look around, took some pictures and stuff..  

Second day turned out to be worst day of the year (haha begining of january) I went on a daytour to Blue mountains, and it was raining, freezing cold, and misty, we couldn't see anything at all, an when i say anything at all i mean nothing! it was white, everything.. but well i got to see some kangaroos and koalas and yeah..but i got back home that night in tears completly disappointed.. But i went out and had a nice, lovely dinner, and after that went out for a drink. haha met the best securityguards ever, they bought me drinks and followed me home so i came home safe. Isn't that pretty cool! Woke up my last day in sydney and it was sunny. So to get my revange i took the train up to blue mountains, and thank god! i came before the mist! and i got to see the amazing view! After a few hours there, i went back to Sydney and got on the bus back to Brisbane. So it was just a short 3 days stay in the beautiful city, but totally worth it. And now i can tick that off my bucketlist too!

I had 3 missions about coming to australia... study, see the barrier reef and go to sydney.. Well... i think i've done pretty good :)
