Woohoo, we're on! I'm not going to start this with a "G'Day mate" as if it's funny because it's not! ;)

All jokes... haha... *tumbleweed* aside, thank God He brought me safely here to Australia. 10 hours to Bangkok, a quick search and fumble to the next gate, 10 or so hours later, I arrived. Bleary eyed at 5.30am Sydney time, sailed through customs and onto baggage collection where I again laid eyes on the superstar that is Brian McFadden! Ah Brian, he's actually a lot taller than I expected him to be, actually I didn't expect anything because he has never once crossed my mind... No no  he has, because every time I see Kerry Katona, I think 'but he looks like a decent guy, how did they end up together?' Anyway, him and Kerry aside, he's quite tall!

We did make eye contact though, not only in Sydney but in Heathrow too... who cares!!! Oh, Lydia does...

Having collected my things, I entered the main body of the airport expecting to see a friendly face with a 'Macquarie' plaque ready to whisk me away in a comfortable vehicle straight to my luxury accomodation. The different time zones had obviously affected my rationale, as this was not the case. An hour later than expected, a bleary eyed, over- weight, older man meandered over and casually said "Macquarie?" that was my ride!

Fast forward 45 minutes more students joined the meeting area and we were en route to our respective lodgings... Here beginneth the adrenaline rush ;)
