Like I mentioned previously, I spent all last week in Pennsylvania at an event called Pennsic with my sister & her boyfriend Kris. And like I thought, it was absolutely insanely hilariously quirky & intense. Probably what I liked about it the most were the parties (obviously), people watching, and all the great people that [...]
As you probably noticed from a blog ago, I’m SO stuck in a rut. Not only is my job search not going the way I hoped, but things are on the rocks with Kyle. I won’t get too much into it, but basically since we’ve been back in the states, our relationship has been off. And slowly [...]
The past week has been amazing – as you know, Kyle & I rented a camper-van and traveled all through the south of the north island (I’ll write a summary of that in the next few days). And for the most part, hit all the spots we planned on. The trip was unbelievable….there are no [...]
So our departure from New Zealand is literally just around the corner. This is our last week at work. Then off we go to Auckland for a mini-holiday! We’ll be renting a camper-van and plan to loop around the southern part of the north island for a couple days. We haven’t made it down there [...]
Last week our friend Krispy visited from New Jersey. How great is that? Literally, one night he drunk-skyped Kyle & I asking, “if I came out for a visit, could I stay with you guys?” I said, “of course”, but didn’t think much of it. New Zealand is a long journey. Well the very next [...]
Did I ever show you a picture of my latest tattoo? I got it back in late August/early September to celebrate the trip to New Zealand. It’s an earth from the view point of the southern hemisphere, with Latin underneath translating to, “prepared for all things“. It was an optimistic gift to myself that everything [...]
Since leaving LA, I have not touched one drop of vodka. It wasn’t a decision made for any real reason. I didn’t wake up one morning and think, “hey, lets see how long I can go without vodka”. Basically, buying bottles of vodka are super expensive here, and if you go out to the pubs [...]
Big Day Out is a HUGE touring music festival (starts here in New Zealand and then makes a few stops through Australia) that Kyle, a few friends, and I had the pleasure of going to last weekend.
SO much fun. We packed up, grabbed some beers for the road, and took the three hour trip down [...]
I know, I know, it has already been about a week since Thanksgiving. But I figured I should at least acknowledge it and hope everyone had a nice one This time of year is getting me a little sad - the holidays and no family to celebrate with. None of the usual traditions that I hold so dear [...]
I tried. I really tried to let my hair grow out. The idea was to be low maintenance while traveling. But alas I missed the edgy bob and felt frumpy with my hair always pulled back. Sure it’s a little more time consuming. Sure I’ll have to get my haircut once a month. FINE I’ll have to [...]
