Ahhh. Mississippi. One of my favourite states to spell :D Seriously. I was always the annoying kid in elementary school who could spell it. My Dad recently rode across the States on his bike, and one of the guys he was with, was from Mississippi. That's my only story bout Mississippi. lol
New Zealand is nice. I like it. Been here all my life. Well, I mean, I've been OUT of it, but I've lived here my entire life. Except when I was 10 and we lived in Switzerland for like 2 months or something. And we almost moved to Boston when I was 16. But obviously, we didn't.
But yes. NZ is nice. I'm a first generation kiwi, cause both my parents were born in the UK. It's very uhh... green. With a lot of sheep. (Not that I've really ever seen that many sheep.) I live in Auckland, which is the biggest city.. bout 1.6 million. Not large compared to cities in the states, but considering the entire pop. of NZ is like 4 million, we're doing ok.
It's a nice place to travel to. Very tourist orientated. Lots of things to do, like flinging yourself off of buildings/bridges/cliffs with bunji cords attached to your ankles. lol.
Hope that you have a good day tomorrow. I always find it weird that it's already the night of the day you haven't had yet, ehre. It's Friday evening, and I'm about to go off babysitting.... So have a good friday! :D
Hee. The question is, do you spell how my kindergarten teacher taught us to spell it? M - crooked letter - crooked letter - i - crooked letter - crooked letter - i - humpback - humback - i ... ;D.. Well it's a very neat story. That's really cool that he rode his bike cross-country.
That's cool. Switzerland? Wow, how'd that work? lol. Hm, well, I've never been to Boston so.. no thoughts there :P
Kiwi? You know, I think I might have heard once that yall have sheep there. lol. Well, I live in a town of about 4 - 5,000 if that, so yall got a lot on me. There are many big cities in the US, and even more medium sized ones, but the vast majority is small towns/communities. That's especially true for MS.
That's cool :) ..As for bunji jumping, I would freak out. I've never bunji jumped before and have no desire to try, lol.
Friday was pretty crazy but not bad on the whole. Just tiresome ;) And yeah, it is odd how yall are almost a whole day ahead of us. It's like 19-20 hours or something? Idk. Currently it's Saturday, 10:46am, here. What time does LJ say I'm posting it your time?
Accordiong to my lj, you posted at 5.45 am, Sunday. Which is today for me, and I was dead asleep. :)We went out to dinner at my ex-boyfriends house (our families are good friends). It's causing a slight problem, in the fact that theres a tiny chance I'm falling for him again. ANYWAY. That'd make it.... 17 housr. You're 17 hours behind me. The easiest way to remember it, form my side, is that you're 5 hours ahead, but a day behind. So for you, I'm... 5 hours behind, but a day ahead.
Bunji jumping... can't say i've ever tried it. The idea of throwing myself off of somethign and trusting a peice of rubber band, is a little insane.
Were you questioning what 'kiwi' meant? Kiwi's are... New Zealanders. Some for absurd reason, way back when, someone named us Kiwi's in reference to our native bird, teh Kiwi. It's a flightless bird, that only comes out at night. They're really very cute. And then of course, there's the kiwi fruit, which I'm sure you'll know of. I have American friends who just call them kiwi's, but in NZ, we call them kiwi fruit, so not to mix up with the people ;) Actually, originally they came from China, but that's a whole other story.
Ah, lol. ... Yikes, that's not good. Well, not if you don't want to be in love with him again.
The 5 hours +/- a day thing is a bit crazy only cause the time difference is that big. It doesn't seem like it should be that big, lol.
Yeah. I'm not too keen on the idea, anyway.
Ahh. I get it now ;) And yes we have kiwis in the states. We just call them kiwi though. Fruit part is implied ;) but I get why yall have to differentiate.. Hee. Sounds like there's a bit of history in it all, lol.

That's my only story bout Mississippi. lol
