Today I got my passport back, which had been sent away to get a visa. So now I am actually able to get back home.

Finals week this term is pretty easy, with one final due today (take-home exam) and one in class on Thursday. However, my time is consumed with packing and checking out Melbourne in my last few days here, at least for a while.

Went up to Sydney in late July, for a sporting competition with another graduate school. While I didn't do much/anything in the way of sports, it was still a good trip, and a chance to visit Sydney again. Having already seen the city center and bridge/opera house, I decided to check out Bondi Beach. Photos are below for your enjoyment.
