It's that limbo period between Christmas and New Years. It's been quite a long time since I updated, since my last post I completed my CUP course and since then haven't really done anything of note. With CUP, I ended up doing really well passing all my courses with more than a B and Maths with an amazing A+. A+ in Maths! I even got an award for it as top in the maths class.
Since then I've been chilling with friends, playing games and hating the summer heat. I hate summer. Just can't handle warm tempretures, this sucks because I love spicy food but all spicy food originates from hot countries.
Christmas was pleasent though, even though I hate the heat I can appreciate a few days with blue skies, light breezes and the quiet valley of Island Bay. For christmas I was surprised with a new laptop, nothing fancy but perfect for my full-on year at Uni next year.
Ok, I keeping most of this breif because it's been a while since it's all happened over a long period. Now I have my laptop I plan to blog more often, maybe set a goal of every couple of days. This may mean that some of the posts will be short and unrelated to what I did that day.
I'm thinking of doing more food related posts, afterall it's my blog and writing about food is what I enjoy. You can expect some game posts too. Food and Games, prehaps that should be the title of my blog.
It's all Food and Games 'till something else takes my interest.

Down the rabbit hole.
So, in my last post I mentioned the Big Halloween.
I went down to Capital E and spoke with one of the organisers. It seems there is heaps of room for actors and they are having the event inside and outside of capital E. They need people to dress up as some characters and wandering around the crowds as their character, also some fixed position roles in the maze or tea party. It's all Alice in wonderland related and the costumes are being done with the costume cave. Sounds like a good chance to catch up one of cousins who works as a manager there.
All thats left for now with CUP is the two exams this week and the BBQ. Social scienece and BBQ on thursday and Maths on friday. Gonna try and get some study done this week.
Tomorrow I'm going to go lift weights at Corey's. Hopefully Treble turns up as well as Jayden. It's going to be good to get back into some old routines.
Post any ideas for posts that you'd like to see, prehaps ask me some questions that I'll answer in the next post. Lets turn this into a semi-Formspring like thing :D

Out the other side
So I remembered that I had a blog.
"Stating the obvious there" you may say but lately I been having troubles remembering what day comes after the next. I'm nearly finished with uni for the year and boy has been interesting. I feel so drained and this was just the prep course for just one trimester. I dread to think what next year with three Law papers, two Psych, a Stats, Theatre and Film paper will do to me.
Anyway I've fiddling with my layout and will hopefully be posting some new stuff up here as I do it. examples of things to come are
My CUP (Certificate of University Preperation) results.
Big Halloween: I might be performing in Capital E's Big Halloween
The great Job hunt.
Film projects with friends (Might not happen but I'll say so on this)
Social events (I plan to spend lots more time with friends in a couple of weeks
Games (Yeah I might post some stuff on games over summer. My summer not the american summer)
And of course I love my food so expect some stuff on that!
If there's anything else you want to post, any questions you have for me, ask me in the comments!
Love you all!

Frustration
Well, I guess inconsiderate assholes can have their night. I'll just do my Uni research and have an early night, going to bed between nine and ten. Like every other boring night of my life.

Well haven't I been productive.
Ok, maybe only semi-productive. I keep meaning to get on with another blog post but I'm never sure what to put in them, It's not like I ever do anything interesting. Stuff has happened to me recently and I seem to have some plans for the future but none if it ever seemed worth putting on my blog.
Victoria University it seems is daft enough to accept me into thier Certificate of Uni Prep, which means after July 11th I'll be a full-time uni student taking four courses designed to make me fir for tertiary education. I'm excited and oh so nervous because if I get less than a B grade average it'll just be a waste of money and I'll fail the course.
I had my third attempt at the learners theory driving test and I passed. It was nerve-wracking as I got the last question wrong and thought I had failed the test. Major shock to the system to see the green "Passed" on that screen. So now I have a little plastic card that "Officially" says I'm 18 and allows me to drive a car with a full lisense holder in the passenger seat only if I'm wearing my glasses. $400 fine if I forget them... The picture is also two years old but luckily I haven't changed much in two years.
My old kitchen has been demolished by my Dad and his best friend and the builders have built most of the framing and looks like we'll have a room with water and gas in just three weeks or so. I never thought construction could move so quickly.
I'm still meeting up with Corey and Treble every week to lift weights (Yes, the idea of me lifting weights is preposterous). Jayden comes too now and makes me even more inadequate. I'm increasing my weights though, I now lift 10kgs + the bar and increase to 17.5. It's not a lot but it's impressive for me.
Everyone's breaks are starting now and my best mate Sam is coming back from Oz. Can't wait to see him and I hope can manage not to party too hard when we see each other, or maybe we will party hard and worry about the consequences later :P

Giggling on the floor
I've been REALLY slack with posting things on this blog. In the time away I've been busy trying to get some sort of plan for the futeure going. Chasing up the school, trying to find a job. I now have two assesments to do for school, reading logs and a direction assesment for drama. I plan to finish them then go to University for the next Trimester. I helped out at Wellington High with a reuinion weekend, unpaid.
On friday I got drunk for the first time, this was weird. I tried to remember to take photos but had trouble remembering that I had a plate of sandwiches on my lap. I was unable to stand for long as my inner-ear balance was thrown out of wack really fast. I had quite a bit of fun so maybe after I've recovered a bit I'll try it all again, in like a month, or two.

It is only ham!
Friends used to be one the biggest things in my life but due to my plans for the year all falling in on themselves, I only see people once a week or so. I've started joining Corey and Treble in their weightlifting and general manly activities. Last Tuesday I pushed myself to my limit and my arms still hurt. I'm a pathetic little weakling.
This weekend is an exciting one for me, Armaggedon, pop expo has come to Wellington. It's actually quite pathetic compared to other expos around the world and has had the gaming pumped out of it. That means you see more Anime and Manga taking it's place. Still, the nerd in me loves this weekend and one day I'll actually dress up in something so very obscure, like Lord Nerevar. :D
I guess I'll be spending the weekend with Corey and I'm so very excited to catch up with my other good mates. Like Indya, the best artist I know and my closest female friend. She bullies me, I let her, it's a good relationship. Floyd, the nicest guy I've ever had the pleasure of knowing, he's pretty massive and part maori so he could easily be a massive prick but he manages to be gentle-awesome-nice. Treble and his Girlfriend will be there later so I'm keen to catch up her and share some disturbing stories. There are also many other friends going so I'm like so eager I may just take a nap.
Sadly Jayden's not coming but that's because he doesn't really enjoy the drawing side of things that has taken over the gaming side of things. We're sort of similar in views, I'm just more of a sucker for punishment than he is. I'm hoping we're going to hang out soon, pull an all-nighter, eat junk, play Heavy Rain. The food I've had a Jayden's usually defies description, we are mages meddling with things that should not be meddled with in his kitchen. We nearly lost our minds one time when the Ham on our cheese on toast was of the same mass if not bigger. Then we slathered it with relish. The Ham still haunts me. The Ham.
I'll try and remember to take my camera this weekend and post masses of pictures! maybe throw something really budget together as a costume.
Praise Azura.
