slacking a bit?

Well Howdy everyone. Ya know, I dont know what it is about sitting down and typing on this….but I just cant. I send many emails a week, so it would be easy to even just copy and paste…. oh well.

So lets see, in the last month, really nothing too exciting has happened. The flatmate, Sarah, moved off to South Korea to teach, so that was a bummer, but shes good over there, so its all good. Speights is still going…. I am over it. Ready to move on and travel around for a while, then head on home. Its been a long time!

I did book my flight home yesterday. I leave Christchurch at 2:30PM on Friday the 5th of March, arrive in Auckland at 3:50…. leave Auckland at 7:15PM, and arrive in LA at 10:15 On the 5th of March as well! Havent booked the ticket from LA to home yet, but that wont be too hard. Anyways, I am excited about it all! I have loved my time here, and will enjoy the next months for sure, but it will be good to be back in America.

I have played netball a few times, and will again tonight. It seems like a cross between basketball and ultimate… when you shoot you have to have at least one foot on the ground….the ref has called off a couple of my shots because they were jump shots. Its different for sure, but I play with fun people…good times. I have been working a lot lately, its becoming the busy season, and I am trying to just save up money….so its fine. Work hard, and play harder. Working at a pub does have interesting benefits…. like a few free pints after work, so thats actually a cost saver. A good one. I like good beer, and New Zealand has it. I must say, I will miss Speights (the beer, not the pub) when I come home…

I have gone to bother Dwayne, Emmy, and Cayden a few times since they got back. The kiddo is growing up so fast….its amazing to think that when I first got here he was just crawling around and barely pulling himself up on stuff, now he is running around like a small child. Its awesome. very very cool kid.

Dwayne and I will be seeing Pearl Jam in about 2 and a half weeks!!! YEEEAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!
