My Oh My

Long time no write,

I finally (at long last) remembered my user details for my blog. That made me so super happy so now I am able to fill you in on whats been happening for the past few months.

FEB 08
==============
I finished work early in February and got all my stuff together like packing and booking tickets etc for my departure from Hanaia to the Deep South. I left on a very fresh early morning from Rotorua. Once I landed in Invercargill, I was picked up by Ryan and his mum and taken to the Grand Hall which is to be my home for the year. A week later O Week started and I am pretty sure SIT is the only Uni in the country that has classes run at the same time as O Week. I have made some awesome friends, Jaz, Vinnie, Tasha, Cilla, Amanda, Laura, Matt, Ben and a whole heap more. I feel I am coping quite well living so far from home but...I miss you my family.

MAR 08
==============
March signalled the end of mine and Ryan's relationship. I will not go into details here because they are rather painful to recollect, but for every end there is a new beginning. I have met the most wonderful guy by the name of Brett. Before he even talked to me, he first contacted me on Bebo and we chatted and exchanged cellphone numbers. The day before he officially met me, I was waiting for Communications Studies (A class I take with brett) to start. He walked in and saw me leaning against the wall, He turned bright red and looked at his feet before leaving the foyer for a few minutes. ***SO CUTE***. We eventually got to know eachother and I met his parents who are lovely people. And for a weekend he took me on a Roadtrip to Roxburgh, an integral part of In My Fathers Den (A New Zealand Film). I find it funny that I am able to find film references in just about all I talk about.

APR 08
===============
April was finally surgery time. I was in Hospital for a week following the actual procedure then I spent a further two weeks in Opotiki before leaving for Invercargill again. I fell a wee bit behind with my assignments but got every single one of them up to date and handed in with a copy of my doctors note.

The Grand is, at the moment, turning into a real unpleasent place to live and study. I will blog about the goings on in the Grand in a later post, I don't want to give you too much to read

Until next post
