When Boredom Strikes...

So I actually have no idea where this post will go but meh I haven't blogged in a while so here we go...

Ever notice that when 'holidays' swing by there is always someone who is like "Mum, what are we doing today? I'm bored." then minutes later is like "Mum, we never do anything. It's the holidays!!" Well, this was me a few years ago and is still currently Rose (my little sister) but I've come to realise over the past few holiday breaks that boredom is a-okay. I think I would much rather be bored in my holidays than have to do piles of homework and stuff for school. This is because these 'holidays' are not actually a holiday, it is more like a two week study break in which I am suppose to revise a years worth of content for all six of my subjects to prepare myself for the mind draining, boring exams in November which pretty much determine my future (since NCEA Level Two is the most important part of my education as school likes to tell me). So that is enough of my rambling on about school and stuff. Yeah.

Now what have I actually been up to..

Well, there is this girl called Uli who I've been hanging out with. She is from Germany and is doing a world trip and New Zealand was one of her places to come to. Cool huh? Yeah. So on Saturday, Aimee and I took her into town to see the Sky Tower which overlooks Auckland City.

 So this is me, my sister Aimee on the left and Uli in the middle waiting for the train. I had to take the photo which is why I look weird. Haha.

 Up in the Sky Tower. Standing on the glass. Everyone takes this photo, right?

 I think Aimee misses London a bit...

Me and Uli in the Sky Tower.

So yeah that was pretty fun. We also tried to go to the waterfront - like where 'The Cloud' is but we chose the wrong time to go. It was like 5.30pm so everyone going to watch the France vs. England game was lining up and yeah people were drinking and smoking so we left.

What else have I been up to? Well, of course I've been watching the rugby. Yeah I watched the All Blacks vs. Argentina game. It was lame. Hardly any tries so yeah not much to cheer for. Best thing about the rugby this past weekend though was watching Mum watch Australia vs. South Africa and not saying a word. She couldn't choose a team to cheer for so for the whole 80 minutes it was quiet. Hahahaha. Love you Mum. PS. Let's hope the AB's beat Aussie and get to the finals! We didn't have the RWC here for nothing, did we? (Actually I don't care but whatever it would be nice to win.)

And on a final note, I should be using my time more productively - like getting off Facebook and Blogger. Time to knuckle down and get some study done. Oh well I'll get back to you on that one...

Good bye for now :)
