It's Easter time :) :) :) :) :)

Easter Eggs are now on sale. And yes this is so far one of the highlights of my year. Normally they go on sale just after Waitangi day but this year, for whatever reason, they are on sale now - just the marshmallow ones and hollow ones not the chocolate button ones but I can handle that. Have been wanting Easter Eggs since about September (good thing Pa has some still in the freezer).

Yay it's Easter time :)

Gotta love her...

Her being Adrian Phoenix. Not only does she write awesome as books, but she also wrote me a thank you note (handwritten) which arrived in the mail today. Is nice to know that she took the time to not only my email (basically saying I love her books), but she took the time to write a reply.

Finished the last book in the trilogy (The Makers Song, book three was Beneath the Skin (I think)) the other day and without spoiling the ending in case some of you are reading it, it ends great. My characters dont die (well not yet at least), and the couple that you know are going to end up together do not do so in a cheesy way.

Fantastic read, didnt want to leave that world and will return again soon I have a feeling.

Zan's in NZ :)

My friend Zan from UK (meet at Sangam) is on a World Tour which is currently on it's NZ stop. So very kool. She is on a bus tour thingy at the moment but is coming to spend a few days in the Naki next week. Am very excited that will be seeing her again. Even managed to get couple days off work so can chill with Zan and show her around :)

Other great news is that my student loan is under $30,000. Awesome aye?

And so began the story, like so many others...

Guess you could say that the new year is well under way, although there is still 356 days left, unless somewhere along the line during the year the new year becomes the old year, but I would think that happens when the next one starts, so yes there are 356 days to go so therefore it aint really well under way, it has barely begun.
And yet I am still impressed that I have kept my NY resolution so far. Only the second one I've made that I remember ever, so this is good. Kept the other one too, so I am on a pretty good strike rate if this one is kept, and if not 50% aint bad either.

Zan (a co-volunteer from Sangam) is currently doing a world tour and has landed in NZ. Wahoo :) She is doing a tour for couple weeks then is coming down to see me and Taranaki for a few days so that is exciting. Can't wait :)

Not much else has been happening, have read a few good books, one slow starting but worth sticking it out book, and one that is tough going but has a promising feeling about it. Also lots of kids books to keep my brain matured at just the right level (besides they might be stopping me from becoming one of those serial killers that are so much fun to read about). Also I have now met Dusty Fog and the Ysabel Kid. And I am sure we will meet again soon.

Cheers all, raise your glass and have a toast of many good things to come.
