September 11

On Tuesday, I went to St. Mary's Cathedral in the morning. My grandma passed away & I wanted to light a candle for her. It breaks my heart that I'm not at home for my family right now. I wish the I could be home for the funeral. My family is in my prayers this week. After lighting a candle for grandma and going to mass, I went to The Sydney museum. The museum was filled with interesting facts about Australia.. The animals and minerals and tons of other things. I left there and went to the Art Gallery. It was nice as well. Lots of statues and weird contemporary paintings. I spent the day by myself & stopped on the way home for dinner. I couldn't find any food except for Chinese, so I ate fried rice with prawns. I felt kida sick after, but didn't think much of it. I was in bed early that night.

Yesterday morning, I checked out of my room and travelled to Bondi beach, where I checked into the hostel for 4 nights. I like it much better out here, it's so much more relaxed and easy-going! Well, so far anyways. I'm sure it will get really busy out here once the hot weather comes. I spent the day walking on the beach, looking at the stores and I finally got some new sandals!!! YAY!! My stomach was still hurting a bit all day, but it was a dull pain so I assumed it would go away soon. I felt better by dinner, but the time I went to sleep I felt like my stomach was revolting against my body!! I was awake all night, getting sick. I thought I was going to have to go to the doctor or something & I could tell I probably had a bad fever. I waited until morning to go and get some medication from the local pharmacy (or CHEMIST as they call it here) That made me feel better, but not really great. I slept until about 3pm, It's too bad too because today was a beautiful day & I missed it. I went for a walk later, and watched some movies in the movie room here. Today was basically a lazy day. My stomach still hurts. I hope I can sleep better tonight!
