Its my last night in Sydney, and I think it is safe to say that sleep cycle is a little bit out of wack, and I can already tell that it is not going to be fun getting the airport tomorrow morning. I have visited all of the amazing museums here in Sydney, hung out down by the Opera House, and Walked across the Arch of the Sydney Harbor Bridge. By doing that I am pretty sure that I have done every extreme thing involving heights that one can do in this hemisphere. It was crazy walking underneath the bridge, climbing a ladder, and boom there are dozens of cars speeding around you, and you climb up 134 meters to the top of the arch. The night scene here is just about as insane as you are going find anywhere, and people are super nice and will by you drinks. They have also have funny little accents, and don’t really know how to dance, and engage in strange forms of courtship of the course of the night. I can only assume that that is left over British custom. One Wednesday night we went to go see the Sydney Theatre Co. production of the Greek tragedy “The Oresteia” it was not exactly light fare, and soon as stopped trying to figure out what all of the crazy symbolism was, I enjoyed it. Melbourne tomorrow followed by the reunion of the decade.

Went to class today, and it was cancelled. I was pretty sad about that because I was looking forward to watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Went on a bit of Bush walk around campus. Made some Indian food, and watched the premier of Modern Family with the flat mates. Wrapped up the night by watching Reservoir Dogs for the first time. Amazing.


G'day.

It was our last day at SWARA. Lots of sad hugs and goodbyes, but I think that it is the start of beautiful friendship to quote a favourite movie of mine. When on Contemp. Australian Theatre, and planned our project, and we discovered that the question that we really need to be asking and talking about isn’t about one play write in particular, but about what questions play writes are asking, and if they are putting us into the right moral dilemmas. And the answer is yes and no. Rented the move Rope tonight. Very funny, and different from most Alfred Hitchcock movies, and worth the watch. Had a long night hanging out with G-5 and G-6. Great night. Silvie is a Lesbian, but that is beside the point…. Master Chief rules!

The ralley didn’t work out. Grocery shopping took to much time, and it was really important it get that done. I am reading the play The Golden Age it is about tribe of people found in the wild of Tasmania in 1939. It is based on actual events. The tribe had it own language and customs, and they are removed to an asylum so that they cannot be used a Nazi propaganda. I watched Hairspray last night on TV, I love that musical. After Hairspray I went down to the Oval and played with Ellie and her camera for about an hour. Went to the library and picked up some information of on censorship in film, that is what my final presentation in Audiences is going to be about. Tomorrow is our last workshop with Swara, and that it will be sad it has been an amazing experience, and I am going to miss doing work like that. Oh a great impulse buy yesterday The Summer Heights High Popularity Board game, it should be exciting to play.

G'day

A little bit of writing everyday.

I am going to write a little bit in this everyday. I know that you are dying to see the banal everything about life here down under. Yesterday I went into the city and bought a new camera, because my old bit the dust it was really sad but it had to be done. I also bought a new winter coat. All the stores are now in full winter swing, and I realized that it will be about a year before winter things are on sale in the US so I went a head and got one here. I went out to the Down Under Bar with Yaz last night. What a brilliant dive bar it is. Today is the marriage equality rally and Hattie’s Birthday. I disabled my facebook to prove that nothing will happen over the next two weeks that I am really going miss out by not being on facebook, what an amazing act of strength and will. If you really need to get a hold of me over the next two weeks you can E-mail me at Pappaschris101@gmail.com or Skype me at papac21.

G’day. Mate.
