Flying Leaps and Shutter Speeds

In the front of JCU: Well it's been another week down under and i haven't got too much to report. Sunday night church was really good and was based around the idea of disappointment. we are disappointed when we dont get what we want but fail to realize that we disappoint God by not following him and placing others and things above our Creator.


Classes were alright this week, i am slowly seeing the subtle differences in teaching methods here as compared to back home. It seems that each class i've had with the exception of photography, the lectures have been rather unorganized and i can't seem to find a common focus for the lecture though i think there is one that i am not able to pick up on because it is being produced in a different way. Hopefully, i can figure out the secret soon...





Photography has been fun and interesting as well as challenging. I was working on my folio due in a few weeks and after putting several hours in of taking pictures this afternoon,(displayed to the left), i found out that we had to create a central theme inwhich all our pictures fell into ...and so far i had not been taking them with that frame of mind...so i am finding that i am going to have to start all over....o well hopefully with all the practice i have had doing the wrong thing, the right thing will turn out lovely!


Though it was not a very eventful week, i was able to talk with several friends on skype and facebook which really made it special and i always enjoy the times i get to make contact with people back home.

Tomorrow i don't have classes so a friend and i are taking a couple buses up to a village on the other side of the mountain called Keranda where there is a little market and a koala garden aswell as a hostel which is really cheap. so we plan on doing some hiking, holding koalas, and stayin at the hostel like real backpackers. We were also invited to a birthday party of a girl from our church group so i am excited about getting to dress up and hangout with all my aussie friends!
Well, i'm sure ill have new photos from Keranda and the party, so until later...Cheers!
