Pre-Trip Feelings

Goals and Objectives
I hope to immerse myself in Australian culture. I hope to travel around the country as well as visit Fiji and New Zealand. I want to make solid, close friends. I hope to try several extreme sports including sky diving, zorbing, and cage diving. I plan to get straight A's in the classes I am taking. I am excited to take non-business classes for once.
I chose this program because I have always heard great things about Bond University and Australia. I would have liked to go to Barcelona, Spain in order to boost my Spanish speaking skills, but the Euro is too expensive. I figured when would I get a chance to vacation in Australia, as it takes 2 days to get here, that I should just study here.
I feel fine leaving my friends and family behind. I will miss them all, but need to do this in order to gain more self-confidence, take adventures while I am still young, and hopefully get over loving my ex-boyfriend.
