Day 145 SKYDIVE

1st March 2009

Flying (well, falling actually)

Day 145

Hungover this morning - all that goon and beer combined with whatever I ate last night plus forgetting to brush my teeth before bed resulted in not the nicest smelling breath this morning. Ew. Oh well at least I don't have a big dirty lovebite on my neck.

No time to feel ill though. Had a shower and was singing. Happy this morning and went for a skydive!!! It was fantastic. Got ace pictures and a video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svealuwP4W0 (click this for the video)



Day 144 Free drinks competition

28th February 2009

Free drinks?

Day 144

Leaving Karen's today. It's been good staying with the family for 3 weeks, but now it's time to go.

Got on the Kiwi Experience bus in Waitomo and met some really cool people. Went to Taupo and to the bar and got drunk for the first time in weeks (The drinking games and goon was a little excessive)! At the bar they needed volunteers for a competition to win free alcohol at the bar, which is stupid really as the people who volunteer for the competition are the ones who have drunk way too much anyway. So I volunteered. Standing in front of everyone was 3 guys and 3 girls - (me being one of the girls obv). Then the announcement was made that it was a lovebite competition and whichever guy gave a girl the best lovebite would win the pair some free drinks. Lovely.

So I started pulling my face and was asked if I wanted to be part of the competition. I decided against it as I'd prefer to pay for my drinks than walk around with a big dirty lovebite for the next week. So I walked over to my new friends and thought they would be in support of my decision, but they all seemed pissed off and didn't get it! No one seems bothered about morals or anything that gets in the way of free drinks. Maybe I'm getting old?...
