Australia Day in England

Yesterday was Australia Day, and I know there is a lot of controversy around this public holiday, so I'm sorry if I offend anyone. I talk about so many random things in this blog, however,  if there is one thing that this blog doesn't involve, it's politics. I admit to be incredibly ignorant when it comes to politics but I accept that everyone is entitled to their own opinion. So let's keep this post light and back to how I spent the day:

-had a morning exam, which isn't the greatest thing, however it was my last exam of the semester, so now I have officially finished my second year of uni- woow!

-to celebrate, a couple of my class mates and I went to a local dessert place and ate this:

mine is the one on the left: ferrero rocher waffle (YUM!!!)
Because this is what freedom tastes like: it is sweet. Really, decadently sweet. 
-bought a new oversized tee-shirt for a pajama, which is really comfy. I know that doesn't sound exciting, but who doesn't love comfy pjs? 

-for dinner, had the true 'Aussie snags on a barbie' British style: which means, because it is winter and raining, it's sausages cooked in the grill, which is just as delicious. 
A whole lot of us students went around to one of the flats and there were around thirty of us crammed in this flat's living space and all celebrating Australia day together. It didn't matter that we were all from different places around the world, we all had a great time hanging out and partying with these incredible people who I utterly love to bits.

-at midnight, a group of us went into town and continued the celebrations at a bar, where we stayed until it closed for the morning. And most of us who went to the bar were Australians. 

-when I went home, realised I lost my student ID and bus pass and spent a good ten minutes outside in the strong wind looking for it. And luckily I did, because I found it in a bush (and lucky I thought to climb into the bushes to look for it too)
