St. Patty's Day!

St. Patrick's Day is not as big here as it is back home that's for sure. But, it was still a pretty good time, all together with my friends :) We went downtown to a Irish bar and they had live music playing which was pretty fun, and when we first got there, a big group of guys all dressed up were playing bagpipes. Then after a while they came and played through the whole bar, I enjoyed that part. We made it a pretty early night though because we were planning to get up early and go to Magnetic Island the next day!

I tend to have the problem with setting my expectations really high for EVERYTHING I do here. Just the mere fact that whatever I am doing, I am doing it in Australia, so I expect it to blow my mind away, and be the best time of my life. Which is not the best attitude to have, because a lot of the things are going to be very similar to how they would be at home, I just am somewhere else. 

I was glad that I happened to bring my green dress with me, it came in handy :)

Here are a few pictures from the night!
