It's weird that this was my last day living in Sanson. I suppose that once I'm gone, Wellington will be my home, not here. Not really. I'm having mixed feelings about it. I'm part happy, part sad, part excited, part nervous.
Here's a couple of photos of me and my friends that I really love:


This one is of Ben, Me, Jess, Jess, Keryn, James and Jordan.

And this is Me, Jess, Nadia, Isaac, Cecile, Jess, James and Keryn.
I'm quite sad about leaving them behind. Of course I'll be seeing them again, but probably not for a few months :/
Anyway, it's late and I have to be up early tomorrow, so I'll be going to bed now.

TMI Friday & The Woman Who Waxed My Eyebrows

Things are looking a bit better. I took my algebra test today and passed, gaining an extra 2 Level 1 numeracy credits. Everything should be sorted by Monday. Also on Monday we're hopefully going to Palmerston to go laptop shopping. I've convinced Mum that I'm going to need one this year and, thankfully, she agrees with me. Aside from sitting tests that I shouldn't have to take, I've just been watching Glee S1 and walking around wishing this heat would stop so I can start dressing like a normal person again. I never used to have to wear so little clothes indoors. Our thermostat informs us that it's 28 degrees inside the house in the middle of the day, so usually I don't bother changing out of my pjs unless we go into Feilding.
We actually got a treadmill while I was in the UK, so I'll be on that once a day from now on until I go. I want to lose all the weight I gained over Christmas (which everyone says isn't noticable, but my thighs tell another story). Sorry about all the TMI stuff- I know I'm not usually this personal in my blog posts. I just figured that since less people read this now I should express myself properly. Unless there are people creeping and not commenting. That would be a bit weird. What am I saying? I do that all the time.
It's okay, I know that most will probably just skim read this..

I actually got my eyebrows waxed today. That's a total first for me. The woman who did them was so hard case. She was like Do you go to school? Do you have a boyfriend? Do you have a job? But in a totally hilarious, nice way, and not in an annoying, prying way. It's that place next to The Shed in Fielding. I just walked in and I was like yo do my eyebrows and even though I didn't have an appointment and she was all booked she was like alright lie down now and I'll do them for $10 instead of $15. Sweet as. Anyway, they look great, not mad and wild like they used to.

I think I've prattled on for long enough.
Ciao.


Oh, and leave a comment if you're not too much of a creeper ;) x

I'm baaaaaaaaaaack :D It feels so nice be in good ole New Zealand again. I'll admit that I did come over a little emotional as the plane descended into Palmerston North airport.

The plane flight from Heathrow -> LA -> Auckland was better than it was on the way there. I watched movies and slept pretty much the whole time. And the food wasn't bad. Except that spicy lamb with chickpeas I had for dinner.
Anyway, the first leg from Heathrow to LA was around 10 1/2 hours, and the second from LA to Auckland was 12 :O We had to go around all this bad weather so it took freaking forever. And then I had to go through Customs and stuff at LAX and Auckland, and I was lugging these two super heavy bags around with me, and it was way too hot in the airport. I'm just happy I'm home.

Good things:
  • I get to sleep in my own bed :D
  • I have all my DVDs and CDs and books now at my leisure
  • I get to see my FRIENDS, who I have missed SO MUCH :D
  • There was a pile of new clothes on my bed from my mum's friend who always gives me fashionable stuff
  • It isn't cold :D
  • The computer isn't a gazillion billion years old (Nana's is s0 old, in fact, that it has no port for a memory stick)
Things That Annoyed Me:
  • Almost all of the music on my iTunes has been deleted. All that remains are the songs that I put on there via. CD i.e., not a whole fucking lot
  • Mum changed my room around so when I got back I had to fix it
  • It's really fucking humid
  • Tori took all the Harry Potter books from my room and put them on her shelf
  • NO ONE IS ONLINE. EDIT: oh no, here's Jess :D
So I think I'll just go now and write some more of my fanfic and try very hard not to fall asleep with my head on the keyboard :) x
