77 Days!

Here that people, in approximately 75 days (yes, 75) you will be making sure everything is packed, hopping in the car to buy last minute things at the corner store, and get depressed to leave your family for 3 weeks. Unless you're me, who's going to enjoy being without my little sister for 3 weeks. I mean, I love her but how many times can you watch her play Halo without getting bored?

Anyway, on with today's blog. Our final interview for like, ages is from another of our school mates, you all know her as Tracey.

Why did you decide to come on g'day USA?

Because I always wanted to go to Disneyland.

Are you scared about going to America?

Oh, no. What's so scary about going to another country? It's just another country.

Are you excited about going to America?

Of course. Because I get to meet my host, go to another country, go to heaps of shops, see snow and go to Disneyland, the list goes on.

Is your host nice? What do you like about her?

Yes. Well, she has the same interests as me, and is really friendly and will take me manga shopping and show me Seattle.

Apart from going to Disneyland, what do you want to do over there?

I want to buy manga and go to amusement parks. I want to go to Forks, which is where twilight is set. I want to see snow.

So, that was Tracey. Thanks again Tracey.

Anyway, onto today's news. At approximately 7:23pm the Aus $ was 67 US cents. Not as good as yesterday. i also have news that It will take a lot longer than we were all hoping for the dollar to get as high as 85 US c. That's great news, isn't it?

So, today was the due date for the final payment for America. Remember, if you haven't paid yet you can pay as close to today as possible. So give yourself to at least Friday.

Today's review is of the Pacific Science Center

Here's a tip, if you want to go I'd advise you to not ask me to come. I'll end up offending you with my obvious lack of scientific knowledge. Anyway.

""If you're planning on stopping in for a few hours or making a whole day of your visit, you're sure to have a great time and find plenty to do at Pacific Science Center. Included with your general admission exhibits ticket are six acres of hands-on science fun, our →Tropical Butterfly House, →Planetarium and Science Demonstration Stage shows, Discovery Carts and much more. Consider adding to your experience by adding an →IMAX film in either our Eames or Boeing IMAX Theaters, a laser light show in our famous →Seattle Laser Dome theater, or an exciting ride on the Morphis Movie Ride Motion Simulator. For lunch you can stop by the →Fountain Cafe located on site or walk over to the Food Court at Seattle Center House. If you would prefer something else, there are a number of great restaurants within walking distance. Oh, and don't forget to stop by the →Pacific Science Center Store while you are here to pick up an awesome science activity or souvenir to remember your visit.""

So, another day down, another to be lived tomorrow,

Sweet American Dreaming,

Amanda
