Life in a new country

It has been just over a month that I left England’s shores and went off to find a new life here in Australia. How do I feel? I feel very well and not at all apprehensive about the future to any great extent. Perhaps that is also to do with the relaxed attitude of most people here. Nothing much seems to worry them and I hope some of that laid-back approach will rub off on me.

Getting a great degree

Everyone knows full well that studying for a degree can help anyone increase their chances of a having a good career. And, of course it goes without saying that it is always a good idea to increase your skills base and keep working on improving your study or work situation. After all, studying in your very own free time and when you like to plan your studies in-between your other activities is a great way to gain a qualification of any kind. Studying for an online university degree at a renowned institution such as Capella University could be the answer for you. Don’t forget that there is a whole range of courses to choose from and they provide degree qualifications on many levels and in a wide variety of subjects.

Arty



Corner of Balmain Town Hall which is presently undergoing extensive refurbishing. This area has some lovely houses and buildings dotted around that seem to catch you unawares, just when you're turning a corner. I love the exotic look of some of the properties and just delight in going for a walk through the winding streets and back lanes. Haven't made it down to the harbour pool yet but I will when it gets hotter. What a great place to live..

aGoodCause.co.uk

I have to tell you about this amazing thing I found called www.agoodcause.co.uk which I think you should check out. aGoodCause.com just happens to be a global partnership between zeven hundred of the worlds most important NGOs such as the major charities like Save the Children, Red Cross, Amnesty International, OXFAM and others. What makes us unique, too, is that users just have to download a small piece of software called AidMaker. Once you have done this, everything works automatically, and your computer is turned into a charitable tool. From then on, having downloaded AidMaker, you can support your favourite charity for free even while you are shopping. Do check it out.



Cooler

A bit cooler today, here in Sydney. And I have to say that it is good to realise that it's not blazing hot every day just yet. A bit of changeable weather will see me ease in to the first ever Aussie summer that I will be experiencing. Here's hoping that I will take to it. Fingers crossed.

A great personal injury lawyer

Everyone knows that having a car accident is something that, though of course unwished for, could happen to any one of us. So much is certain. Life is a wonderful thing but a certain element of risk is, unfortunately, always present in almost any thing you do. Even when you your self are the most careful of drivers that does not mean that you will not end up in a car accident at some stage during your driving career.

Rear end collisions can be very tricky as anyone who has been in one can testify. And, what is more, the damage inflicted in a rear end collision can be notoriously difficult to prove. That is when you need one of the best Omaha personal injury lawyers such as Larry R. Demerath. Larry can help you with a free consultation about your rights to compensation.

Pic from Oz



The wonderful Sydney Opera House, taken from the stern of one of the ferries. It was a cloudy day when I shot this but I think you can still glean something of the majesty of this icon set in the famous harbour. It's a pretty amazing place, alright, that's for sure. I can't wait to explore the place further..
