On a different note, I posted an entry in response to your other entry, but I don't think it worked. How is Grandpa doing? And you told Jenny you were a lesbian?! How did she react? Maybe now she'll stop forcing her brother upon you, lol.
So, things here have been busy, but a lot of fun. My friends and I went camping last weekend...we drove to a random beach that had a bunch of huge caves about 100 yards from the shore...we built a bonfire and slept in the cave...about 25 people ended up showing up too, so it was kind of a crazy party...we're all really poor right now, so all we had to nourish ourselves all weekend was plain rice, plain pasta, and whiskey. It was so much fun, but I think eating should be a priority next time. This weekend we're driving up north to the Wild Foods Festival...tons of people gather for this festival and eat things like crocodile and kangaroo and crickets...it's supposed to be a lot of fun and supposedly there's live music, which is awesome. The only problem is that it's supposed to rain, and our tent is old and not completely waterproof...fun fun fun. The weather is the only thing I've really been frustrated with so far in coming to New Zealand...I think it has PMS. The first week we got here, it was unseasonably cold for a couple of days and then it warmed up for about a week or a week and a half...now it's been cold and rainy for awhile, which makes me nervous as to what winter will be like. I wake up in the mornings and it usually takes me an obscene amount of time to get out of bed because it's so cold and there's no heating. I have discovered long johns though, and although I feel like an old lady when I'm wearing them, they are my new best friend. Oh, and on a completely random note, New Zealanders drive on the left side of the road, and I tried it for the first time last weekend...it's terrifying, especially when you're turning. I almost had a stroke while I was driving, as did the people in the car with me. Ooops. Well, I better get ready to go to this food festival. I miss you, I hope you're doing well, I love you, and I'm SO HAPPY THAT YOU'RE OKAY. Take care darling.
