1 Month down...many more to go

Today is exactly one month that I have been in Australia. It actually feels a lot longer for some reason. Overall I am doing pretty well I think. I do have my hard days that's for sure. Yesterday, I spoke with my dad for the second time since I left. It was only for a few minutes, but it made me a little sad. I had a break down as per usual. But, today when I got home I received my package that my parents sent to me. My mom put my Strawberry Shortcake doll in there. Somehow I think that from now on when I get homesick it won't be as bad. Yes she is old...but she's been through a lot! Gotta love the Strawberry Shortcake! Thanks Mom.

  2. I always think of you whenever I see something Strawberry Shortcake related. How nice of your mom to send her to you.
