SEIZE the OPPORTUNITY of a LIFETIME

We've all had those moments. You know, the ones that may seem insignificant, but we just cannot seem to escape. During my time in Australia, I experienced these moments about a thousand times. The one that stands out the most occurred while traveling to Darling Harbour. As soon as the train came to a halt and the doors opened, a gust of air blew in and breathed some crazy sort of new life into me. I stepped out of the train completely in awe of the millions of twinkling lights that filled the harbor. It was an intense moment of realization of my own existence and I couldn't help but to think, "I am really here," over and over again. I couldn't have gone on this trip at a more perfect time, after my first year of college. I learned so many things about the many new friends I made, but more importantly, I learned a few things about myself. That part of the trip is absolutely priceless.
