I'm writing now from what might be the sketchiest internet cafe I've ever been in. Normally, I would be able to update from the hotel that I'm staying at, Noah's on the Beach, but the wireless that I am getting there is incredibly finnicky, so now I'm here, in a computer lab in the basement of some building.
Yesterday was spent driving south from Nelson Bay, which took about an hour, checking into the hotel, and checking out the University of Newcastle campus. The campus is, in a word, perfect. The entire university is build in and around a forest, so the entire school has a really great, natural feel to it. I was able to meet up with a residential advisor (RA) over at International House, so I was allowed to check out the rooms and living areas before moving in. Speaking of which, I was also able to talk to a administrator at the International House, and he said that I would be able to move in on Saturday. Which I will be doing.
Seriously, I wish my wireless was working properly so I could show you some of the pictures I took of the campus. It really is something else.

I'm excited to see your pics of the Int. House and campus. It sounds great. I imagine they would have a cool student union-type place too.
