As my weeks in Brisbane are coming to an end, I've been doing all that I can to cram in as much time with my closest friends and family while I can. 

Saturday June 6th: Who doesn't love a good musical? Dirty Dancing is one of my favourite movies and it holds a sentimental meaning so I was beyond excited when I found out the musical production was coming to Brisbane!

Wednesday June 10th: There are the most beautiful shops in Paddington. They are incredibly artistic and beautifully designed. My friend Abigail and I spent the afternoon visiting the cute cafes and adorable shops.

Wednesday June 10th: This is the city view from my balcony. I love that the clouds add a level of character to the photo.

Wednesday June 10th: My favourite place in the city is Mt Coot-tha Lookout. It's about a 20 minute drive from the city but I've been going up at least once a week to watch the sunset and enjoy the beautiful views of the entirety of Brisbane.

Thursday June 11th: These two girls are my best friends. The girls I can call upon for anything, anytime. On Thursday night we laughed, we cried and had endless fun. I can't even begin to imagine what living apart from them is going to be like but I know we'll stay in contact and make every attempt to see each other whenever we can. Meeting these two lovely ladies over two years ago through debating seems a lifetime ago and I feel as though we become closer and closer whenever we're together. I want to thank them both for the incredible memories we've made together and I know we will make many more in the future. I love you Anemice and Cara and will miss you both dearly.

Thursday June 11th:  I love having/taking polaroids photographs. It's having a printed memory in your hand, you don't need to scroll endlessly through your phone or camera to find a photo. We had an incredible amount of fun and certainly memories that I won't forget for a very long time!

Friday June 12th: Since it's my last weekend living in Brisbane for at least a few years I had some friends over for a bit of a 'gathering'. Good friends, good fun, good alcohol.

Friday June 12th: The ladies. Abigail, me, Chelsea, Sasha and Harriet.

Friday June 12th: I had my first ever Vodka Cruiser... I can see why so many "white girls" get incredibly drunk, incredibly quickly. It tastes like soft drink!

Friday June 12th: I don't really know how to caption this. I just remember it being hilarious to take the photo and it reminds me how fun the night was. (And before you ask, yes... I did get a new tattoo on my ribs - it is roman numerals of my nan's birthday)

Friday June 12th: Abigail, me, Chelsea, Sasha and Harriet.

Friday June 12th: Abigail and I were getting distracted taking selfies while playing  "Kings Cup"

Friday June 12th: Apparently we all love wearing white.

Friday June 12th:  This is Harriet. I love her. She's amazing. Love.

Saturday June 13th: The morning after the night before.
