Edit: I’ve added a new layout which interacts with wordpress to the very last inch. I’ll be adding the pages tomorrow, and editing the sidebar (i’ve got to get rid of those pesky dotpoints…!
Well, today at 1.06 AM (ish…) I turned 18. Yep. 18. I can now legally buy (and drink) alcohol, rent R rated movies, and hell, if I actually wanted to, I could buy my fair share of sex toys. I could get married, divorced, get a credit card and purchase land.If only I had the cash, right?
Just kidding! I had a really great day though. I woke up and opened a few presents from my rellies (which can be seen later) and then went to school and handed in my majorwork. My day was fairly bludgy: I got back a few exams and ended up only doing real work in maths and bio. All in all, it was fairly uneventful.
My trip to Auckland was absolutely wonderful. I had a great time with James (We watched High School Musical!) and on Saturday we visited the university (I am very set on a Science degree majoring in Biology and a post-grad of Forensic Science) and then looked at a few apartments. Dad is very set on an apartment in the Scene 3 apartments, which he’s going to put an offer on later. It’s lovely. It’s not exactly the one seen in the image, but they’re all fairly similar. Saturday evening our families went out for dinner at the Skytower, which was really nice.
Anyway, enjoy the photos - They’re under the cut!
My first legal drink!

You’re exactly one day younger than me. I just turned 18 yesterday (the 27th). You are so lucky that in Australia you can drink and buy alcohol! In America, we have to be 21… sucks. Glad to hear your birthday went well :)

Happy eighteenth birthday, Sarah!
Your presents look awesome, the trip to Enzed sounds like it would have been fantastic, and I’m really happy for you that post-school stuff and decisions are becoming so much easier.
There’s not long to go now…
