Last night was a pretty big night out and was the last time I'll see many of my friends here, because they left to travel today. Tonight, I have organized a going away party for myself and the others leaving town, and we're expecting 25 people or so at Fringebar, so that should be a good time. I was supposed to take an exam today, my only one, in International Finance, but unfortunately, the school said we weren't allowed to take it early, so now I have to take it remotely at Kellogg on April 7th, after I've been back for two weeks. That pretty much sucks.
I have pretty mixed feelings about leaving Sydney. This has been one of the best experiences of my life- truly a great time, a great country, a great city, wonderful weather, etc. But, I am definitely missing my friends and family and Chicago, and it makes me realize just how much I really love living in Chicago. I think it hit me most on St. Patrick's day, when Brady had a massive party that Ihad to miss, and all of my friends and siblings were out having fun on one of my favorite days of the year. Anyways, I don't really have any more grandiose thoughts than that. I'm not looking forward to really hiting the job trail when I get back- it really isn't very fun to think about. In fact, I don't really ever want to work again after all of the traveling I've gotten to do over the last two years, but I suppose everyone feels that way. Anyways, this is me signing off on this blog- I hope you've enjoyed reading it, and sorry I haven't posted more pictures (as many of you have complained to me).
