Phew! I just spent the last 3 hours completing a course for my Responsible Service of Alcohol certificate for Australia. It was set up like a power point presentation with an overly enthusiastic woman guiding me step by step, accompanied by obnoxiously upbeat music that I couldn't mute without also muting the narration.
*sigh*
But that's all water under the bridge now! That's the game for these last few days in America. Get as much water under the bridge as possible before time runs out! Yesterday I visited my Grandma, had dinner with a great friend, and spent some quality time with my Mom - all people I'm dearly sad to leave behind. My list of things to do, people to see, and food to eat shrinks gradually along with my time left before May 1st at 6:45pm. Its a sad, yet wonderful thing.
