Robert Stodola ‘19: Again from Thailand—Again to the Weblog!
Hey everybody!
Simply made it again from Thailand a few
week in the past. It was spectacular, and I’m excited for these on the Rhodes Maymester
to get to expertise among the issues I used to be capable of expertise. I believe you
all are going to Chiang Mai? Most people we met in Thailand advised us to
try to go to Chiang Mai, however we couldn’t match it in. I’d undoubtedly advocate
going to Bangkok and Phuket whilst you’re there for a month!
The subsequent two blogs will probably be about Thailand,
so for now I’ll speak about Australia and the way issues are going! It’s been such a
large expertise. I wouldn’t commerce it for the opposite aspect of the world, however
for the primary time I’ve been lacking residence (each Little Rock and Rhodes). I
suppose that’s as a result of, earlier than Thailand, Australia kind of set right into a routine of
doing the identical factor every week. (The ole’ rise and grind that we love a lot
at Rhodes). Usually this sort of factor wouldn’t hassle me, however there’s simply
sooooo many issues I wish to do in Australia that I haven’t achieved or can’t
afford. I wish to go to Sydney, The Nice Barrier Reef, Brisbane, Tasmania and
New Zealand. However all that journey = lot’s and lot’s of $$$ and an terrible lot of
time. I’ll determine all of it out I’m certain, I simply have to prioritize issues.
I’d say what I miss most about being at
Rhodes is CUP—particularly after going to see an improv present at Melbourne’s
comedy competition. The town important shuts down and for a month and there’s
comedy exhibits each night time!
The schoolwork and learning has been
selecting up right here (it’s about midterms right here, which is bizarre since yall are about
to enter finals!) Most of my courses are fairly typical, besides my enterprise
courses are fairly demanding and giving me some bother (could possibly be as a result of I’m
an English main, who is aware of?)
I’m within the midst of planning a number of enjoyable
issues: Melbourne horse races, a footy recreation, and a visit to Sydney, so keep
tuned!
And in the event you’d wish to get in contact with me
whereas I’m right here, then shoot me a Fb message/snapchat/moodle dm and I’d be
completely happy to speak!
