With muscle soreness into the 2nd month

已發表: 17.08.2016

Monday, 15.08.:

The alarm clock rang and not even fully awake, I noticed that I could hardly move. The hike yesterday must have been tough. And today it's supposed to continue.

Planned departure: 7:30 a.m., but since we were all still dead tired in bed and we felt all our muscles, the departure was delayed until 8:15 a.m.

First, we refueled the tank - it was half empty and we paid 11€. So the petrol is very cheap compared to the food here.

Then we went for breakfast: It consisted of super delicious pancakes and a hot chocolate *Yummy*

Of course, the hot chocolate doesn't taste nearly as good as the one at home with my own milk. ;-)

After breakfast, we drove to the Glow Worms Caves.

First, we were informed about the glow worms with a video and then we entered the cave.

Unfortunately, we were not allowed to take pictures in the cave. But it looked so beautiful, comparable to a starry sky - just much more illuminated.

After the 30-minute tour, we continued to Tamborine National Park where we looked at Cedar Creek Falls.


In the 'pool' you could go swimming. Unfortunately, we couldn't do that because the weather didn't cooperate :-(

But it's not far from us and we agreed to come back in the Australian summer for a swim ;-)

For lunch, we bought corn on the cob and the practical thing here is that there is a BBQ grill every hundred meters it feels like.. whether in the national park, at the beach, or just at a rest stop...


We returned the car at 5:00 p.m. Then we went out for steak dinner. (At Waxy's, there is always a $3 steak on Sundays and Mondays ;-))

On the way home, we were able to see the Gold Coast from the other side - isn't it beautiful? (Let's just pretend the weather is nice ;-))


Tuesday, 16.08.:

Because it was so cold yesterday and I wasn't dressed warm enough, I can already feel myself getting sick... :-(

To possibly prevent that, I made myself a fruit plate and drank a lot of tea while I went through a few lectures. Like every week, I met up with Claudi again and we continued working on the lectures.

At the beginning of the semester, we received a voucher book, which included a voucher for a trial class at a pole dance studio. We redeemed this voucher today. Unfortunately, we couldn't perform well and our muscles weren't up to it either... Oh well, it was worth a try. :D ;-)

When I got home, I had some more vitamins and tea and had a 1-hour Skype call with Anja :-)

By the way, here's my Skype schedule (It's already time-consuming to always have to calculate, especially when the family is spread all over the world ;-))

So if anyone wants to Skype with me, let me know a day and time and I'll try to be there ;-) I'm excited about every 'request' :-)

By the way, I've already received a few comments about this schedule :D


Wednesday, 17.08.:

This morning I was already awake quite early (7:00 a.m.). Then I thought that I would use the long day today and went for a jog. Unfortunately, not as successful as 4 months ago, but at least I managed to run 4 km in 28 minutes :-)

And so that you get a little jealous, here's the route where you can see that I jogged right by the beach and today even with sun. :-) I'll do it more often now!

After jogging, I took a shower, then another Skype date with Claudi and then back to the lecture from 4 - 7 p.m.


Thursday, 18.08.:

I don't think I can prevent the cold, my nose was running all day... :-(

Today there was a test in Corporate Finance. I took it this morning together with Mattias and the result was 10 out of 10 points *yeeeah* (We had 2 attempts again and 1 hour per attempt ;-))

After that, it was back to the lecture until 7:00 p.m.

I was happy when I got home, could drink tea and then go to sleep.


Friday, 19.08.:

So this morning it got me. I wanted to get up, but I felt so terrible that I decided to stay in bed and only go to the 2nd lecture... After I had slept a bit and had a few cups of tea, I felt better again.

So I attended the remaining lectures and went to work after the lectures.

That was my Friday - short and sweet ;-)


Saturday, 20.08.:

Slept in, drank tea, and studied a bit in the meantime, then went to work from 12:30 to 1:00 a.m.

Here's my workplace in Brisbane:

So the top left is the counter, which includes:

The rolls are taquitos - filled with chicken and cheese

The corners are quesadillas - filled with beef and cheese and then to the left of the 2 things is chili con carne, beans, chicken, and beef. That's all you can mix into the nacho bowl.

Then we continue with the chili bar (picture on the left in the middle). There you can choose the spiciness from 0-10.

On the right, when we have time, we always prepare the nacho bowls.

In the picture on the top left, you can see my boss, who takes care of customers and talks to anyone who just takes a quick look at the counter :D

Below that, you can see the cooking area. That's where the nachos, tortillas, special requests, and other things are prepared ;-)


Good night *zZzZZzZzzZZZz*


Sunday, 21.08.:

This morning, I took my third test in Accounting and then went to the beach for 2 hours because today we finally had nice weather again. 22 degrees and no wind. :-) So at the beach, it was a bit windy but that's normal ;-) :-)



@Gedde: You were lucky that we didn't run over any wallabies, because during our trip on Sunday and Monday, it was sometimes really close.

@Laura: Of course, I think of you guys all the time :-*

@Julia: Yes, definitely!!! The !!few!! clothes I brought with me are already annoying me here! I always wear the same thing :-( :D

@Sändi: I'm also really looking forward to it!!!!! See you soon & as some people always say here:

CHEERS! :-)
