to let you know I'm returning

For those of you who were worried New Zealand (or its sheep) ate me alive, that is not actually the case. I'm pretty sure, at least.

Ben has been expecting from me some massive update and explanation for where I've been. Unfortunately, aside from the obvious fact that I moved to New Zealand and had a rather fundamental change to my way of life, there really isn't one. I haven't even had as much to do here as I usually do at home. I just sort of ... wasn't in the mood to be involved in an online life, to tell you the truth.

Eh? I don't know. And then I actually felt quite guilty about it and that delayed my return to myO and OB even longer. Then I decided to suck it up and come back because I missed the friends I'd made. And, um, RPing. (<-- That's not sarcastic, though it sounded that way.)

So that all wasn't very exciting. Maybe if I throw some pictures in your face you'll forget about my three-month absence. Hmmmm? *throws photos, runs away*



One of the many beautiful beaches I've been to while here.


We visited a marae, which looks just like what you'd see in Whale Rider.


Winetasting on Waiheke Island (legally, since the drinking age is 18).


A vineyard on Waiheke Island.


A visit to Cathedral Cove on Coromandel Peninsula.


The dormant volcano Mt. Taranaki from a distance, before we hiked it. (My first hike ever!)


At the summit of Mt. Taranaki.


The famous Emerald Lakes on another hike I did, the Tongariro Crossing.


They weren't kidding when they said there were more sheep than people in New Zealand.
