New Years

I have no resolution.

Because fuck you.

Anyway, I spent my new years eve at my mates playing some Volleyball and Beer pong alongside a nice BBQ and beer out in the sun with my mates…was very cool. Most of them went into town for the nightlife…but seeing as Spine and I are both poor and gamers, we decided to go back to his and get shitfaced while watching Top Gear till 4.30 am…at which point we couldn’t sleep because we had so much alcohol in our stomachs that if we lay down it made us involuntarily gag.

AWESOME!
We then proceeded to watch both parts of Richard Dawkins – “The Root of all Evil” documentaries…together they are about 1 hour and 30 minutes worth of watching…we took somewhere around 4 hours as at the end of every statement, we had to pause and discuss it…in a highly intense manner. It was an enjoyable way to spend New Years and educational to boot :D

Now I have family from all over the place passing through Wellington so the next week or two will be jamming with them and catching up on new additions to the family and whatnot.

Ciao

Christmas

Right…so really I don’t give a shit about Christmas…I honestly don’t care about its religious significance nor do I really care for presents.

But my family and I managed to get away from technology and headed to the beach at Castlepoint for a few days of R&R.

And to be honest I rather enjoyed it…although I really did only spend 1.5 days there and the weather wasn’t entirely great. Me, my brother Simon, my sister Rachel, our dog Shadow and my parents decided that seeing as none of us have the same hobbies we might as well stick ourselves in a tiny wee house and spend 2 days throwing shit at each other.

Instead however we just lazed around playing cards (which got pretty intense) and drunk Sherry…well I drunk the Sherry :D

We also managed to catch a few Kahawai in the lagoon during late evening fishing outings which were hilarious good fun because the fish were biting so much and we managed to play a bastardised version of bat down using a kids baseball bat and tennis ball…cept we played in high winds, so getting anyone out was almost impossible.

So now I’m back…where I belong, in front of my PC screen getting on with daily life…but occasionally I do enjoy the outdoors as I did when I was once a kid…although I hate beaches…and I hate people…and Castlepoint was both a beach and had heaps of people.

Ugh.

Highlight was when I threw on a singlet and my entire family was like: “HOLY SHIT! YOU’RE WEARING A SINGLET!”…well they looked like they were gonna say it.
