So much for updating on Wednesdays I guess. The internet here at the Carlton is about as reliable as, well, my updates. Lately, I've been working on balancing school with travelling and getting all my plans together.
Easter Holidays are coming up, and we get a week off from classes. I wanted to fly up to Cairns and take a 14-day bus tour all the way south to Byron Bay, which I think would be absolutely amazing, but I can't find anyone to go with. Instead, I think I am going to Brisbane for the week with a few friends. I will be close enough to Byron Bay (2 hours) and I might even recruit someone to take a 2-3 day trip up to the Whitsunday Islands. Google it, and you'll see why I want to go there. You know what, I'll even Google it for you.
I've booked a trip to Tasmania for the weekend after Easter break, and will be there for 5 days. We have a pretty large group, and are renting 2 Holden Commodores, so I'll get to experience driving on the opposite side of the road. I am also in the process of booking a trip to New Zealand, which is heaps less expensive than I expected.
As far as classes go, I'm really enjoying CAD. I really like to sit in the library with my MP3 player and figure out how to efficiently create a 3-dimensional image of some random mechanical entity. And, also, if you haven't noticed, I'm into the whole HTML thing.
I'm looking for someone to buy some Dave Matthews tickets with me for the concert in Melbourne on May 1st. If anyone reading this wants to go with me, leave me some lovin' here or give me a call. I now have a cell phone so I am considered to be "in existence", according to Donald.
I emailed the guy that gets people together to play hockey on Wednesdays and Sundays, but I haven't heard a response back from him yet. I was hoping to be able to play tonight, but I don't think that it's going to happen. Possibly on Wednesday, because I only have his work number and work email. I'm getting excited though, because I don't feel like ice hockey is too far out of reach anymore. In the wise words of Cinderella (the band, not the princess) said: Don't know what you got till it's gone, I guess.

Loved your new update Marc. It's packed with fun filled links. One question I have though, how can you take a 14 day bus tour when you only have a week off from school?
Love and miss you all the time. xo
Well, I would obviously have to miss some school for umm... educational purposes.
Yea, that's right.
Leave it a mother to put the kabash on a good vacation :):)
Here's your lovin' although I won't be able to attend the concert with you! Keep the updates coming, I love them!
xoxoxo
Whitsunday is beautiful as are Tasmania and Cairns. Andrew loves the pictures you are posting. He most enjoys the animals. We are appreciate sharing the adventures with you. Happy travels Marc. Be safe... xo
Sparky - Matt showed me the pictures on your facebook. Loved them! You should post them here.
Also, I received your housing application from UT. I'm going to scan it in and PDF it to you. You need to get with Mitch and let me know how you'd like it filled out.
Educational purposes? Kabash! I think going to Brisbane and Whitsunday is a better choice. :)
Hey, did you get the package yet? If not, it should get there soon...
Your Mom doesn't want to put the kabash on you having a good time, she just wants to make sure you don't put the kabash on your GPA.
BTW, what does kabash really mean??
The Holden Commodores look like pretty cool cars, but how may people are going in each one? They don't look very big. Oh, and it feels like you're going faster when the speedometer is in Kilometers per hour.....
Hope it works out for you to get to play some hockey while you're there.
Love and miss you. Dad
Hello my long lost brother. I haven't heard from you in a while. Actually I haven't talked to you for about 3 weeks. Well I'm on spring break now and I haven't done much but sleep. I test drove a 300zx last week and I decided that it will be my next car. I'll tell you more about it when I talk to you next time. But I have to go to work so hopefully I'll talk to you soon. Keep in touch.
Hi Marc(y)...
I think you are either having too much fun or you are spending so much time on your schoolwork that I know you will be carrying a 4.0 this semester!!! ;) That must be why we have seen no new pictures -- which could include pictures of you 'studying hard'!!! ;)
Are you already on your '14 day' Easter break bus tour?
Seriously, hope you're having a sensational time (and studying hard) and, if you're planning to dress in drag and surf with your Aunt "I"leenie, I want to see that -- in fact, you should sell tickets -- you'd make a bundle!!! lol
BTW, Whitsunday looks absolutely beautiful -- may have to go there someday myself (well, with you Uncle LB)!
Luv ya much...
