I’m back from the USA! My holiday was wonderful and the cruise was so so exciting (I’ll go into detail about it on my next blog, at the moment i’m a little jetlagged :P) I had a wonderful time but the weather was a little bit on the crappy side. Overall though we all had a wonderful time, met some lovely people and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly.
Wow, 2007! I have a feeling this year is going to be the best yet! I’ve been accepted to Auckland University (I was offered all places I applied for except for the Law/Science conjoint and accepted the offer for the Bachelor of Science majoring in Biological Sciences) which means I will be moving into my appartment early/mid February. I’m looking forward to having more independence and getting away from my mother, simply because i’m sick of her bitching and attitude towards me as well as our arguments. Being closer to James will be a big step for our relationship as well: We’re as close as ever but being in seperate countries for long periods is draining.
Well, I’m going to fill in a bit of a Meme about 2006 and 2007! I hope everyone had a great New Year!
Oh, before I forget: Congratulations to my Auntie who gave birth to a Beautiful baby girl named Emma Louise on the first of January :)

I have always wanted to go on a New Year’s Eve cruise - that would be a lot of fun. I enjoyed reading your 2006/2007 survey/resolution thing. I can definitely relate to the part “live my own life and not my parents”. That sounds like a line straight from my resolution list. Oh! Congratulations on being accepted into the university. How exciting is that? Well, take care of yourself.

Ack, separate countries?!?! I know people who can’t survive living on separate sides of town lol. I’ve done the long-distance thing and can’t say I missed it. I, like you, was also glad to go away to university — get away from the family, and their drama, and have your own life. Glad you enjoyed your cruise - now it’s my turn (hopefully haha).

Hi Sarah, glad to see you have such a positive look on 2007, the year really can’t go wrong for you :) So are you nervous about starting your life on your own? Life in uni? I was so excited I could barely sleep the weeks before… And moving so far away! But I’m really happy for you and I hope 2007 will bring you everything you expect of it.

Thank you for your comment.
I found your comment in particular extremely helpful.
Congratulations on being accepted into Uni. It’s brilliant that it will bring you and your boyfriend closer together.
My mum and I argue lots too.
