today rocks!

it's only 1:45pm and i've already had such an amazing day! i woke up around 830 and jogged down to the beach where i sat on these big rocks and just chilled out and looked at the ocean. = my happy place! i was looking at the water and all of a sudden it started shimmering and looked super cool. i thought it was the sun reflecting on the water but it turns out it was this massive school of tiny fish! i've never seen such a huge school, it was at least 50 feet long, it was crazy and the water was pretty shallow, so it was really clear and i could see them swimming around :) 

then i went into the park and did my pushups and stuff (it really sucks not having weights here! can't wait to get to the gym in margs) it was soooo beautiful and sunny, i was sweating. yay for wintertime lol then i did a few sun salutations and stretched and just walked back. there were so many people playing with their dogs on the beach and the dogs were running around and swimming and having such a good time! it was beautiful :)

got back to the hostel and had some breakfast and sat outside in this swing, which i'm in right now and i think it's my new adopted home haha chatted with kelly and kaitlyn on imessage before they went to bed lol then i had a shower which was awesome, cause lets just say it's been a few days pahah *classic backpacker* 

i walked over to my bank to see if my debit card had come in, and it had yay! although there is no money in my account ahhh it should be transfered from my bank in canada by wednesday which is great cause i have about 20 dollars left lol 

now i'm just sitting here in my swing, writing this and about to listen to some new music that jess sent me on dropbox *technology win*  bryanna gets in today so i'm really excited about that! we are going to look for cars, and hopefully by friday or saturday be on our way to margaret river! whoo hooo road trip!!! :D 

anyways, thats it for now. i'm really enjoying this hostel more than the last one, it is a lot quieter and has more space to just hang out. the other one was fun too, i'm just more content to chill out with a book than play beer pong haha and it was definitely a spot for beer pong :P they also have this box in the girls dorm section of things that people left behind/didn't want anymore and i found this awesome blue zinc stick that was brand new so i took it to use. tried some on my hand and it is such a pretty colour! it even stayed on through my shower so it will be good for surfing and swimming :) spf 30 WHOO! 

i'm thinking the rest of my day is going to be pretty great too! i'll write tomorrow :)

loads of love!
