Boy, it's been a long time since I write a blog for the first time. To be honest, it was not only because I was lazy but also life at UQ is a lot harder than I thought.
Unlike the other guys, I've never gone out from this state and I' have been concentrating on my studies. That is one regret that I have and I don't think I can go faraway from here for traveling to places like Sydney or Melbourn.
However, life in brisbane is not that bad. I really enjoy rugby here not just watching but playing as well. Playing rugby union for more than 10 years, I'd never known the existence of rugby league, so I was pretty surprised that league is a lot popular than union. I never miss watching the footy game including Brisbane Broncos and State of Origin. I also joined the rugby league club from july to september. I realized that I really got into it, and love it a lot more than rugby union.
About my studies, my essay was selected and posted on black board as a good example in one course. It was an honor and I was over the moon when asked for the professor to post it. However, I don't want to be satisfied with my studies just because of that. I don't want to do things good, I want to do great. I set the bar high before I came here and I don't think I meet my expectations, so I have to push myself further in order to end this study abroad successfully.
Hi MW
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to here you are getting into the sporting culture here (and what a victory for Japan against South Africa in the World Cup!) and doing so well in your studies. Keep it up,
Henno
