Alright. Been a few days since results came out, and i'm okay with mine. For less than half of an effort, getting half the results isn't too bad =D.
Trip to NZ was okay. We wasted it on places which weren't all that at all. I think the only place worth it -with the major exception of Queenstown, most definitely- was Rotorua [i think?], and that was only because Hobbiton was situated near there. So next time, we're flying straight out to Queenstown.
Queenstown was the best. On the plane from Christchurch to Queenstown, there was a Spanish group sitting behind us, and darn, listening to the guy talk behind me was delirious. So yeah, when we landed, finally got to get a look at the guy and surprise surprise, he was hot. His voice was hotter though XD. Then met Bob, our friendly bus driver / tour guide. Man, I do miss Bob. He was much better that Tony, or Peter, or that other white-haired driver we got =P. He even brought us back to his house and let us feed his sheeps + goat. And his wife, Mary, even made us fudge. And he put up with our demands quite fine. From seeing the bungee river [ = Pillars of the Kings], to taking us to Monkey's Creek and the endless views of snow-topped mountains, to taking us up the gondola and on the luge [ah, the pinnacle of the trip], to the Jet Boat, the fresher than fresh salmon, and then to showing us lupins, lupins, and more lupins!
Alright, pretty silly. More here.
Anyway, went for Anne's Christmas Party / her mother's birthday party yesterday. I expected it to just be a small-ish dinner, but of course, Shaz just conveniently left out the part where the tents and black-tie caterers came in. All in all, pretty nice event, save the starting boredom, and the confusion. We got gifts, though =).
School starts in a week or so. And i don't like it.
I agree strongly with this. What the hell is this supposed to signify? How does this help the women? Disgusting, hormonal bastards at the freaking Senate. It's bad enough that women are often looked down upon for just being women, for fuck's sake, and now the men are not only able to take half our property, but then they get to prance off with their new youthful wives. Don't try to make it right by saying Muhammad did it too. Everyone knows the men today don't even marry to help the women. When was the last time you saw a man marry an old, ugly widow? It's probably not even about religion anymore. Ask an ustaz, and then ask an ustazah. Both strongly religious, they'd still come up with different views. Simply because men have their dicks to think about. Men evidently earn, or have the possibility to earn more than the women, why should they be given the right to take what is ours away? They're suppose to support us, dammit, not come, go and take whenever they feel like it.
It's all about the gender now. It's a horror that the Goverment gave consent to such 'amendments'.
Anyway, Merry Christmas. And forgive me, Sarah, for not wanting being able to attend tonight XD.
