“No, that was the day my life began. Liz, when I was in that room, and they did what they did to me. You're what kept me alive. The thought of you. The way your eyes look into mine. Your smile. The touch of your skin. Your lips. Knowing you has made me human. Whether I die tomorrow or fifty years from now, my destiny is the same: it's you. I want to be with you, Liz. I love you” - Max Evans

“Peyton! It's you. When all my dreams come true, the one I want next to me. It's you. It's you Peyton.” – Lucas Scott

  Long time...

  Wow, I can't believe that's its been over two weeks since I lost blogged on here! And i've hardly been checking anyone else's blogs either, so sorry for that.

  I've now got two weeks of semester to go, then exams ending November 1st. Unfortunately that is a Saturday- I have to admit I'm rather unimpressed coz I'd rather be working and earning money but hey, I do not control the exam timetable. If I did I would also not have myself having two exams on one day- I absolutely hate it when that happens. It equal extreme stress and I become a real bitca when that happens!

  But, once all that is over.... HOLIDAYS!!!!!!!!!!! Until the end of February, so I've got pleanty of time to enjoy the sun and have a great summer! Starting with a skiing trip sometime early November... Not entirely sure there will be any snow on the mountains, but hey it'll still be lots of fun. Roadtripping with friends has got to guarentee a good time.

  No TV news from me at the moment. No new shows that I'm watching, and currently am only watching SVU and CSI:Miami and I think that their both due to finish soon. If not soon then at least in the next month or two...

  So yeah, hopefully I'll be on here more in about a month's time!

  No Kiwiana bit for this blog. Sorry. Will make up for it next time.

  Hope everything is going well for everyone else!

  Addicitve

  Ok, so I said in my last blog that I wouldn't be coming on here too much in the next like eight weeks. Hmmm.... perhaps I spoke too soon! This site is just far too addictive for my own good! I can't help but come on here at least every couple of days, check everybody's blogs, see what's up on my most-visited forums... and all of it is distracting me from my actual work.!

  Oh, just before my whole Kiwiana part I have to gloat about New Zealand's sporting successes of the weekend. Firstly (and most importantly in my eyes) the All Blacks bet Australia in the Tri-Nations decider- it was a VERY tense game, to win the Tri-Nations and retain the Bledisloe cup! Trust me, that's a big deal down under! The Wellington Lions (in the national rugby competition) won their 7th straight game, and will challenge Auckland for the Ranfurly Shield this weekend. Also, the Warriors (NZ League team) bet the TOP placed Storm to book themselves a home semi next weekend. Also, very big news. And while I'm not entirely sure about the medal count at the ParaOlympics, last I heard NZ has 11 medals, and one of our swimmers won here third gold! Pretty damn impressive I say!

  NB: I know that for most of you my seemingly incessant ramblings about rugby and league seem pointless and probably incomprehensable, but rugby is a very big deal down here in NZ and I'm a very big rugby fan, so I like to let you all know what is happening in the vague hope that you will all convert to being rugby fans!

  Ok, so here's a little bit of culture for the first Kiwiana part...

  And since I've made a big deal out of the Tri-Nations game (and it was) here's the highlights from the game. Sorry for the poor quality....

  Sorry... Again

  Ok, so this is going to be a frequent thing with me over the next eight weeks or so- its the second half of semester and everything is starting to build up, so I'm anticipating much more work than the first half.... So that means that unfortunately I won't be on here as much as I would like to be
  
  Anyways, I had my first week back at uni this week (I'm only there three days a week, so my week is over already) and I have to say it went pretty well. Handed in an assignment, got two back (an A+ and an A) so pretty stoked about that, and did a presentation that wasn't as nerver-wracking as I built it up to be
  
  To TV news.... I watched this movie the other night starring Parminda Nagra (of 'Bend it Like Beckham' and 'ER" for those unfortunate not to know) called "Compulsion". It was actually really interesting, but also quite disturbing. Basically an Indian girl who on the surface has everything, finds upon coming home from University that her father is arranging a marriage for her. This isn't good at all as she is in love with an English boy. So, to get out of the arranged marriage she starts an illict affair with the family's chauffeur. Now, if it sounds seedy and disturbing, then you'll be correct! But it also presents some really interesting questions and the relationship between the daughter and chauffeur is not as clear-cut as it may seem.... So, yeah I would actually recommend it to anyone.
  
  I also managed to brave the One Tree Hill forum today.... and I'm kind of torn between being glad and regretting it. See, I got to read/see all about the LP love that I'm not going to actually witness for AGES!!!!! so I'm happy to see it cause they really are just perfect together, and sad that i don't get to see it for myself.
  
  Yeah, that was one random blog! I'm on my laptop which is notorious for not posting links, so will add the Kiwiana part of my blog later on when I can use the home computer.
