Santa Claus Came!!!!!!!!

Getting a parcel in the post is one of the most exciting things. Growing up it was always fun to come home to see one in front of the door, even if it wasn't for me (which it rarely was), was enough to make my day.

Another exciting thing growing up was getting new gear every sports season. Which, considering how many sports I did, happened quite a bit. Getting to break in a brand new pair of shoes, using a bat for the first time, trying on your new uniform, it's like Christmas in whatever month that sport happens to start.

Combine those two joys and it makes me happier than this cutie...

Why am I going on about this?

EEEEEKKKK!!!!!!!

I recently joined the UNSW Volleyball Club. Uni sports here work quite differently than they do in the States. In the US you have 1 team representing the uni. Here it's just a club. So while we're wearing the Uni's colors, a lot of the players aren't even students here. The UNSW club has 2 teams. If I hadn't made any of those I didn't plan on finding a different club. I'm mostly doing this because the gym is a 1 minute walk from my apartment. The convenience and they joy of playing volleyball again is impossible to pass up. :)

Feeling like a pro :)

Add on to this the fact that I think I may have done amazing on my first quiz today and you could say I'm in a pretty good mood.

Thanks to my roommate Richard for helping me figure out how to center that gif :)
