Wow its been a super long time since ive posted anything...and alot has happened...lets see...well so much has happened since Magnetic Island...mmm my mom and dad came to visit which was absolutely amazing---we traveled to Cairns via Greyhound bus going because my dad wanted to see the "country side" and by plane back...the Greyhound was a HORRIBLE idea as my mom was sick the entire time...once we got to Cairns we did alot of really cool stuff including: eating kangaroo (my new fav food), crocodile, and Emu which were all super tasty....we also did a hot air balloon ride to see the sunrise which was amazing, we went to the Kuranda and took a trip on the cable car, mom got sick so just Daddy and I went to Green Island which was really pretty as well even though I got super sunburned but dad remained completely fine as he was using the "army strength" sunscreen....Rewind back a week and we traveled to Mission Beach to go white water rafting which was an adventue in and of itself--we took a Greyhound there and one of the stop was Cardwell...so we get off the bus and are just kinda hangin out because we have about 30 minutes to kill and Todd and I hear karaoke...i look at him and we both just start going toward the bar..the others stay behind until my lovely voice carries to them and they come and watch Todd and I sing "Friends in low places" we didnt know if we were going to have time but the DJ annoucned that we have some "traveling tourists who want to perform" and so Wild Rose and Bronco were born...no one clapped...not even our friends...but oh well continuing on..--Todd, Chad, Sam, Sara, Jen and I had a wonderful day rafting on the Tully River but every one of us fell out of the boat atleast once, Jen almost died, Sam was propositioned by our guide "Frank", Sara and I almost died when the raft guy didnt see us and flipped the boat over ontop of us, and my paddle never touched water...all i heard the entire day was "paddle bitch" from Todd and the others *though Todd was the most vocal*--we stayed at Scotty's beach house in which a man with a shady goatee slept across from me and sara enjoyed it by taking creepy pics!! mmm...what else? oh we went to Uni Club a few times where in a nutshell over a 4 week period of time sara managed to lose dignity in here pink dress haha, Sam managed to stay in character with her "black dress with the tights underneath"..Todd and I continued to creep and me in true creeping attire (black shorts) and whitney bailed out unforunately :-(!!---So fast forward to the Gold Coast---It can only be described as craziness...sam and i ventured to the GC with the following happening:
1. a shady ass hostel
2. shady roomates
3. me tryin to tell time on a sketchy "wrist watch"
4. total creeper in the computer lab
5. Parasailing, Jetskiing, Jetboating, a look from Q1, and more Gelato and Ice cream than is probably allowed

7. Sam was almost molested
8. The waves in Surfer's Paradise almost killed us
9. Dracula's Dinner theatre--which was absolutely amazing
