Currently sitting on the floor in the LAX airport. It's 9:50 p.m. east coast time, but only 6:50 here. This is my first time traveling between time zones and I must admit that it is thoroughly confusing. My flight doesn't leave for New Zealand until 10:30 p.m. so I'm now going to find ways to amuse myself and hopefully meet up with some of the other Australearn kids to meet my new friends for the next 5 months.

Hopefully these posts will get much more exciting and detailed within the weeks to come.

p.s. I'm learning to love airports. Everyone is in quite a rush and I feel important pretending to know what I'm doing and where I'm going (someone even asked ME for directions!). I wish everyone had a stamp on their forehead of their destination. It would cure my curiosity, but also ruin the guessing-game I like to play.
