Emma's 21st and night out in CHCH

Throw out the old!!!

Ok, well its amazing how life throws ya a few curlys from time to time...
Things are going really well here in Dunedin. I am settling in nicely. I have decided to do a bit of study this year as I am sick of working in retail, and need to open myself up to other types of employment opportunities. So I have enrolled to do the Certificate in Advanced Travel, Tourism and Business. Starts in March and is full time for one year. I am nervous about studying again, but think I am totally ready for it. And it is only a year so I think I will be able to handle it. So thats good. I am enjoying spending time with my family and making new friends.

The curly one that I was speaking of earlier is that I am being taken to court by my ex boyfriend, who has turned out to be the biggest physco I have ever met. I owe him a bit of money and refused to pay it to him because he has caused me so much trouble, and also dinted my car and lost my cell phone. So I wasn't going to give him a cent, then next thing I get a court hearing notice in the mail. Awesome! So I am trying to negotiate with him so we can agree on an amount that I will pay him. So hopefully I will get it sorted out soon, because It is stress I do not need. Man I have learnt a lot from this and I hope people around me have learnt from mistakes too. Hopefully soon I will stop making such poor errors of judgement and get it right one day!

New Year AYE!

Far out, the new year has begun. Last year was pretty awesome. A lot of stuff went down, a lot of things changed. I have a feeling this is going to be a brilliant year. I am excited!
I will tell you the other big news. Its exciting for me because it is in my family, but you guys may not be as excited. My sister Liz is engaged to Steve Asken. He asked her to marry him on Christmas eve. So thats awesome. I am real happy for her!! I couldn't say it before because there were a lot of people that didn't know about it yet, that they wanted to tell in person. So didn't want to be a blather mouth.

I drove home from Christchurch again Yesturday after a big night out with Susie, only getting like 3 hours sleep. That is a dangerous thing to do and I will never do it again. I had to stop like 4 or 5 times to have a nap. It was scary. I thought I was never going to make it home. Flipin mental!
I had an awesome time with Susie. We had heaps of laughs, made a dick of ourselves. We stayed at Charlie B's backpackers again, and Susie went to bed when we got back from town and I stayed up talking to these 3 Swedish guys, and then when we got told off and told to go to bed by the angry cleaner guy, i tried to get into our room and susie had locked me out. She was in there fast asleep with the key...i banged on the door for ages and I knew there was no waking her. So i had to go over to the grumpy cleaner guy and he had to let me in. I felt bad because he already hated me and threatened to kick me out before...I tried to wake Susie to tell her off, but I couldn't. i even slapped her, but nothing....
So anyway Fun times. I have been to chch 3 weekends in a row. I am having a weekend off next weekend, but i have to go again in 2 weeks for my friends 21st. But after that i think i will not go for a long long time...maybe...i probably will.
Just took my car in for a service and warrent...eekkkkkkk I am nervous for the results of that. It hasn't had a service in ages. Well over due...thanks Emil!!!! DICK!


Anyway. Thats me. Her is a picture of the view out of our living room and bedroom windows. You can see Carrisbrook. Nice one aye!!!!
