I came back and read some more of the articles for my paper before Carrie and I went to watch talent nite at the Rec Room. There were only between 5-10 acts, but it was still fun. They gave out fake tim tams and a big candy bar to everyone that participated, so this one girl just went up and sang the "Soft Kitty" song from The Big Bang Theory that Sheldon sings for the chocolate! (Hence the title) She obviously didn't win, but it made my day! The first place prize was $100 to Coles, second place was $50, and third place was a thing of chocolates. The winner was a guy and girl that sang an Alicia Keys song together. The whole show was about 40-45 minutes and after, I just came back. I'm now just going to finish my readings for my paper and try to write down some thoughts so that I can get the paper mostly finished tomorrow. Can't wait for Friday!!!

"Soft kitty, warm kitty, little ball of fur. Happy kitty, sleepy kitty, purr, purr, purr."
I woke up at about 10 today and read some of my readings for my paper and ate lunch. At 1:30, I had my biology lab, which was again shortened because our class is too big for the room. Today's lab was a lot of fun, and we basically did the same type of stuff as we did in week 2 with identifying animals, but this week we did reptiles and amphibians. There was one frog that was really cool because it is a turtle frog and looks just like a turtle! My partner from last week and I worked with a bunch of people and we were actually able to finish this lab! I even got all of the questions answered during lab time!

Sounds like fun...So people in other countries are fans of show Big Bang Theory or is that just a song they know?
Do you have an itinerary of the things you will be doing on your trip next week?
Mom and I have checked into some places to stay in Freo (from the list you gave us). Looks like some nice places on the beach, but it gets pricey right on the water. You get a lot more for your money with the apartments/beach houses than with a hotel. We hope to get something with a beautiful view on the water. Hopefully we will book something in the next day or so.
Love ya,
Poppy
I guess they must be fans of it, because it isn't a song that you'd know from anywhere else and she said that she'd been watching a lot of tBBT lately.
Here's a sample itinerary that Russ sent us...
