Starbucks date

I don’t think either of us wanted to get out of beds this morning but Riley wanted to go ahead and get his class out of the way. I, on the other hand, took my time getting ready and doing as I pleased. I packed a lunch and Frisbee though in hopes that we could give a throw whenever I met up with Riley in Victoria Park for lunch. It was a lot windier outside than I thought and we settled on swinging instead. Unfortunately, we didn’t last long since I figured I should read over my final papers one last time before I printed them off to turn them in. After today I am officially done with my International Education class, meaning I only have one more class to worry about which is a great feeling. I really do pity Riley who has to worry about two exams still. My teacher for this class is so wishy washy it seems since he randomly moved the tutorial time to 3 o’clock instead of 4 o’clock which meant that only two people showed up since barely anyone comes to the lecture anyways where he announced the changed time. That meant they didn’t get the memo about the moved tutorial. I thought we’d be getting out of there early since the other presenter didn’t show up, but he made sure to sweep in at the last minute. I had plans to meet up with my other teacher to discuss the final project in her class since I was beyond confused on how to approach it. I felt a lot better about it after leaving her office which was a relief since there are only two grades for that class. Riley was busy cooking delicious barbeque sandwiches for us, which is nice to have dinner ready after class for me. We must have done some strenuous sitting in class today though because we were both starving and the sandwiches and rice side just didn’t fill us up. That meant Riley cooked some noodles which he scarfed down, before we decided that having a big bowl of ice cream would finish us off. That was by far one of the best dinners that we have had since we both love ice cream! I haven’t been feeling good lately and we joke that I’m coming down with the Sydney Flu as well with my stuffy nose so I asked Riley to be my Starbucks date for the night. This is the first time that we’ve had Starbucks while in Australia, which may come as a shocker to my mom. I know she couldn’t have lasted this long ;) We grabbed the laptop and made it a purposeful date by catching up on these blogs. So go ahead and imagine us sitting in the corner of a Starbucks with a caramel hot chocolate in my hand and an iced mocha in Riley’s hand typing us these blogs and looking through the East Coast Australia Lonely Planet book in hopes to plan out our next adventure to the Great Barrier Reef. I’d say that was a successful date! With the night being so rainy we plan on making it another movie night! Riley trusts in my movie picking skills since Wreck it Ralph was so good, but I’m thinking about making him suffer through the Notebook since he’s managed to escape it for two years now! Muahahaha.
