It's Sunday!!!

It is finally Sunday night! And i am pleased to announce that as of 4pm my babysitting duties were over!!

It was a very long weekend and also very tiring. To start off i took the baby monitor Friday night so i could wake up with Jake and let Amanda sleep in. Jake decided to wake up at... 5:30am! Yup. Early morning start for me!

I was right about what me and Amanda ended up doing Friday night haha. We did our girl talk for a few hours and were going to watch Texas Chain Saw Massacre:The Next Generation except she fell asleep so i kicked her upstairs. Oh and btw it was not scary at all! The only scary part in there was Matthew McConaughey b'cos he can be a creepy fucker! Wow he was psychotic!

Saturday Amanda and I took the boys up to Nick's school so we could wear Jake out. It worked though he fell off his scooter 2 times and yelled/cried a bit. Amanda got Jake to sleep till 7am (Sunday), lucky bitch! Also that night i found out that USA were doing a Pirates of the Caribbean night! They played all 3! :-) We have the 1st one so i recorded the last 2 and watched them last night. It was a good night.

Today i honestly thought i was going to lose my mind. Jake was having a bad morning! It was bad! He was just getting so upset over nothing in particular.

BUT the good news is i made it through the weekend. Still have 2 brothers and 1 dog. I think i did a pretty good job!

Anyway that was my weekend! Was yours any better?

Tonight made up for my crappy weekend, i got to talk to Josh on MSN and talked to my dad on the phone for a little bit.

Short week this week! Thanksgiving is on Thursday and on Wednesday i will have been in America for a YEAR!! This past year has gone by so quick and i have experienced so much! I am very grateful to be here.

We're having Thanksgiving here so i can escape to my room if i need to haha but we have no idea how many people will actually come over!

Cannot wait to put up the Christmas tree and go Christmas tree hunting again! Hopefully i can do that again. Last year i got to go with my Uncle Gary to cut down his Christmas tree and it was fun!

Best Friends Old and New, Crushes in Philosophy, and a B Grade

Hey my darlings =)

Today has been a okayish week for me. I started Philosophy on Tuesday, so far it seems ok- going to be a bit of work though hopefully not as much as French!! Anyway back to my class, there are a few very attractive guys in my class that have caught my eye- well only 3. Haha.. Ones called Eric, and the other is Greg, can't remember the other dudes name. Anyway Greg is very very cute! He's got blue eyes and he plays baseball- thats all i know about him. =)

Today i got the funniest comment on bebo from Josh..

"Lol i knw its been ages! And im sorry. I miss u to! Oh thats cool. And i will b
online tomoro and wel talk bout that 'cute' guy in ur class haha. Bebo me wen ur
on and il jump on to k. Xoxo"

That is why he is my best friend! I love you Josh! Can't wait to come home to NZ and stay with you!!

Today on Facebook i found my old best friend, Gina, from Wainui Primary School in Auckland. We lost touch when i moved to Hastings which sucked but hey- we were like 6! Anyway we had a good catch-up on facebooks IM, turns out she might do an exchange program to Arizona State Uni (ASU) which is in Phoenix!! That would be soo freakin awesome!! It's been over 10 years!

Watching Poseidon, i heart Josh Lucas so much! *sighs* His accent and eyes are soo darn dreamy! And the guy who plays Christian is hot too.

Ms Betz FINALLY uploaded my Anthropology grade! A whole freakin week after class finished! I got myself a B! YAY! Haha.

Tomorrow dad comes home from his week-long trip to New Orleans. Hopefully they'll go to Dairy Queen after but very unlikely so i'll end up staying behind and cleaning, which is cool with me. Yesterday i was swimming for like 2 hours and of course i got burnt =D wasn't that bad.

Okey dokey thats enough from me for the time being. I'll do a blog dedicated to Philosophy quotes that i find either profound or utterly confusing!

Hope you will all have a great weekend.

TV Marathons, Oscars and My Birthday Present

I know, I know..how boring! lol

But.. coming over here i have missed a whole lot of episodes of my fave shows so i decided to find them online and watch (most) of them!

And i have (kinda).. im all caught up with Chuck, bar the 1st 3 episodes.. Bones's latest episodes- shame i couldnt find the earlier ones.. many more too.. apart from my fave show... Gossip Girl. i didnt even get to finish the first season! So im prayin that they might show a marathon from season 1-2..unlikely but i can hope right?

So yeah that was pretty much my weekend.. although i cleaned my room cos it was messy!

Ohh and good news.. my (step) dad from back home is buying me this camera this my bday!!

Isnt it gorgous!! Its the Canon SD 880 IS in Gold of course! And he say's that it could be a very early bday pressie! Cos my bday isn't untill end of April.. He'll buy it online (from an american shop) and just get in shipped to me.. Ahh im sooo Excited!!

Anyway.. ive got classes tomorrow along with my 3rd (and final) Grammar workshop.. There were 5 but i had to miss to cos of my classes.. It's extra credit for english and its easy..

I soo can't wait for the oscars.. im gonna record it so i can watch it during my break between class and the workshop.. I really want Kate Winslet to win, i love her! My bff rach told me i look like her along with a few others as well! *How Cool?* lol.
I don't think she'll win i think Meryl Streep will beat her (hope not).. I dont Brad Pitt to win or Angelena Jolie.. I mainly just watch for the fashions!!

Logging out for now..this is long enough. xoxo

Change of weekend plans

Well looks like we're not doing the whole "family picnic" this weekend, it's been moved to the 15th!

So that means i have a big fat nothing planned for the weekend.. i really need to make some friends.. i have people i text and talk to in my classes but i don't know them well enough yet...

How sad is that! That's the big downfall of moving to a whole new country.. you have no friends outside your family
