The holidays are a looooong time away, but I am still looking forward to them.
I am looking forward to the middle of the year ones as I will be going to Christchurch for a science teachers convention and one of the keynote speakers is the Human Body guy! Yay! He is cool! Also while I'm there I'll be staying with my friend 'Bean'. We went to Uni together and I haven't seen her for ages. We said we'd go overseas together, but I got a job teaching and she hasn't yet. It is a lot harder getting work in the primary sector than the secondary. Also I'll get to see phreq, who while I haven't hung out that much with her, I have known, and I have liked her for about 10 years! woah.
I got really close with Bean's family when I was studying at Otago, they have a farm in West Otago, and I will hopefully road trip down with Bean to visit them. Except maybe in Wanaka rather than Otago, as they have a holiday home there. That place is awesome, I had some really cool uni holidays there. It was while staying there I sprained my ankle snowboarding, got a crush on the guy who took me snowboarding (I have this weakness for ski and snowboard instructors, they just seem extra attractive, including the females!), went on a death defying drive to Queenstown, had a freezing dip in a river (in september), attempted to go water skiing, went fishing, fell asleep on Ruby Island 'beach' in the warm afternoon sun, hid and hunted for easter eggs on an easter sunday and many more awesome things.
I bought the tickets yesterday and now I can't wait!
