Flights to/getting into Sydney

So the flights were pretty eventful....first the pilot on the way to Chicago had the highest voice of all time and I was laughing inside of my head all by myslef. Second, the flight to LAX had a man singing the shaving cream song (only a few will understand this) and I started laughing in my seat and he loved it that I knew the song.

My flight to Sydney was awesome.....though it was about 14 to 16 hours I met two really cool Aussie girls who were sitting next to me. We talked throughout the whole trip and got to know a lot about each other. One of the coolest parts was about 1 in the morning when all the lights were out and I opened my window and looked at the night sky....The stars were so bright they were singing off of the clouds which was a beautiful sight.

Some great movies came on, 500 days of summer was playing about 3 times over and I watched it every time, turns out I can really relate to that movie. The food was great to which really surprised me. I know I'm being random but I'm so tired right now, anyways.....the rest of the flight was great and I ended it making pretty good friends with the Aussie girls....they gave me their number in case I got a phone and said they would get in contact with me on facebook so that should be fun to look forward to.

Once I arrived I was kind of taken back and once I entered into Hillsong I just thanked God for giving me the dreams that I have and for allowing me to make it there. That was quite a moment, as I stood in the doors I just thought to myself, "Am I really doing this?"

I met my host and we've been hanging out all day. He showed me the ropes to shopping and getting around. My apartment is awesome and very large, I have a huge balcony that overlooks a courtyard + there is a workout center and hot tub/pool in the complex. Surrounding the apartments are some large sport parks, fountains, brick roads, and really cool shops. I guess you could say I'm starting to like it. I am missing everyone very much especially my family and my best friends. I can't wait to see what I get to take part in and what I get to do. Christ has blessed me beyond my dreams. Love you all and cannot wait to see you......well...until after I get done here of course. :)
