Welcome to Uni

Feb 15th
The Main Quadrangle
Woke up for orientation early, and walked over to campus. The campus is very walkable! It takes a maximum of ten minutes to get anywhere on campus. We started off in the great hall in the most stunning building. It looks just like something out of Hogwarts from Harry Potter!

Outside Sydney University's Great Hall
In one lecture we got to pet dingos! This is probably the only time I'll ever get to pet one, as they are wild animals, and native only to Australia. I went over to visit friends at St. John's college. They have quite a nice building complex as well.

In the night I befriended some Aussies, and hung out with them for a bit. They seem pretty cool. They were very inquisitive about American culture. They proclaimed themselves to be wannabe musos (musicians). They thought I was the first nice American they had met in a while, and in typical Oz style they nicknamed me Jono.

Keep it level!
