i'm just thinking 4 like wen we go on rides and stuff i'd wanna have it on me- i'm really paranoid about leaving it in a bag while i'm not with it lol cos i'd be in so much trouble if i lost it. so maybe keep it in my bag locked up during the day and if i go on a ride then i'd have to wear like a money belt thing

I brought my backpack today! it's backpack on wheels AND a duffle bag and is 60 litres. which i thought was good but it looks so tiny haha i'll have to roll all my stuff up. It cost $188 (and that was with a discount!) plus name tags. the tsa locks cost $11 bucks each there and i needed like 10 of htem lol so i was like i'll look around, AND THERE WAS NONE! kmart- none, target- none, big w- none, other bag stores- none, freaking sunshine coast has nada lol. soooo might have to fork out the money...kinda sucks. are u guys getting a hide-away money belt to put passport and stuff in?

as soon as you open your mouth youll stick out like dogs balls lol well maybe not quite like that but you get the drift...

when you walk down the left hand side of the walkways of bike paths and people tell you to walk on the right simply yell "its okay im australian" ahhhh the memories lol
