I reckon I need to have a wee break from posting for a wee bit cause I am SUPER BUSY right now. But I asure you this site is going to get a whole lot more exciting soon. Can you feel it?!? I feel it!!!
Sounds like the Cuba Carnival was fun. Especially with quotes like this in the paper:
Dance troupe Real Hot Bitches believes it broke a world record for the largest number of people to participate in synchronised dancing, with 1852 jiving in Courtenay Place to Bon Jovi’s Shot Through the Heart. The Guinness world record is 876.
Just so y’all know, I’m like, due to have a baby this week. So if I vanish for, let’s say, 5 days or more you can probably safely assume the imminent explosion has arrived.
Maybe even Asher could tell you all. Since he’s supposed to make some kind of blog announcement if I die, maybe I could persuade him to make an announcement if I give birth?
Along with the recent cleansing of the blogroll comes some new ones. And they’re all Aotearoa blogs too!
Firstly (and top of the list too due to the alphabetical listing policy) is anarchafairy. Who is a seriously choice person and I really enjoying the writing so far!
Secondly is NZ Human Rights Lawyer whom I don’t know from a bar of soap but looks pretty bloody interesting so far.
Finally lets say hi to stanselen who I found through Asher’s blog. Also don’t know from a piece of soap but bloody inspiring so far. I’ve enjoyed every post and look forward to reading more.
Little known fact: I originally set up this blog because I wanted to get into the habit of writing so I might just maybe start writing better.
Little did I know that I was about to fill a void in the NZ blogosphere by writing about political issues from a Green perspective. Which, at the time, no one else was doing or was better placed to be doing. So after a wee while I noticed that there was a few people not only reading my blog, but continuing to read my blog. So I just kept on writing about what was going on from a Green perspective. But not as much of my writing was as analytical as I would have liked, I just didn’t have time.
Now things have changed. I don’t work there any more. There are other Green blogs. There are other things too but those are the main two.
So I’ve decided that this year I’m going to take some time to get a bit more disciplined in my writing. So consider this me re-enacting a new years resolution from a few years ago. And you can all get excited about seeing me write more! Well, I will anyway… (more…)
Just had to share this one with you all (especially you Australians). We stopped just before Rotorua to check out these waterfalls that neither of us had ever seen before and they were pretty rad.
And the bush was stunning!
I’m starting to edit photos up so expect some more to perve at sometime in the next week.
OK time to come clean. This blog is probably going to go into hiatus for a while as I’m slightly occupied being pregnant!
So I’ve been like half-dead for the last couple of months which is why I haven’t been posting much. Starting to feel better now but still pretty tired for those of you who care.
I’ll be able to start writing more when I stop work but that won’t be for a while. But I promise that I won’t start blogging about being pregnant. There are so many pregnancy blogs out there it terrifies me. Personally I can’t imagine why anyone out there would be interested in the gory, intricate details of gestation. But that doesn’t stop thousands of women around the world from doing it.
*shudder*
So anyway, coming home in November to have the baby (no way am I having an Australian baby!) so see y’all then.
