new zealand.

i wish i could be in welli with u when u get there ;_;

i've only been to chch once, it was a drive by, i was a little drunk

i was visiting from the wonderful town of timaru

also: u just missed a 4.8 quake in welli

i'm not saying a word unless he does. xp

ruby, i am eating a box of cadbury roses chocolates that was a gift from my mother to f. at this very minute, he doesn't like them so he gave them to me, every time i unwrap one i meditate upon how you probably would like it and then i wolf it down.

oooh i love roses!! except there are always way more duds than classics, i.e. the lemon ones and the turkish delight and the strawberry ones. i like the caramel ones and the vienna fudge. but they're probably all different now, i haven't them in years and years.

when we go to nz next year we're taking just empty suitcases, no clothes, and we're bringing back 100kg of food

pineapple lumps!!!

there are a few duds especially the lemon ones but the square caramels and the oval caramellos are as good as ever.

oh jergz if u are gonna be spending a significant amount of time in welli, there is this way cool place u should explore at night: it's an old dental nurse school or dorm or something, way up on top of mt. vic. not sure what's there now, but about 8yrs ago it was being rented out as like 'apartments' (more like big big bedrooms). the whole place is really creepy but awesome. i was briefly dating a guy who lived up there, the wing he lived in was like a hospital ward.

lemon chocolate is the

WHOOPS

the worst

talking about welli makes my eyes tear up, i've been getting a bit of wrenching in my belly whenever i think about home lately

poor ruby, i know that feeling very well.

i will give wellington a kiss for you, ruby, and leave a present on your behalf, the nature of which is to be revealed at a later time

@rubyxp: not so expensive compared to aus, though, it seems really cheap to me. exchange rate is much better for us, too

ha
i will check out that hilltop creepy place, thanks for the tip. will probably be in wellington a month or three. why would i leave when december promises a date with the whole Estela family, incl F.

how weird could it be for mr. sc0rp10, if he recognizes me. it was only moments. i'll not talk the next time, either.

OOOMG, the potential for xmas intrigue is killing me. i might have to sell some worldly belongings and sneak back to further the intrigue!

drove through the southern alps today. it had snowed yesterday but today was sunny and the white shone like the whitest white. we got out and took pictures and said wow a lot.

now we're in greymouth, 'the biggest city on the west coast' lol. this country is amazing. i like how lxy keeps saying 'WE DROVE ACROSS THE COUNTRY TODAY'

we did! we drove across an entire fucking country! and i said "holy shit" the whole time, because it's so beautiful!

<#<#<#333 nz!

so beautiful

so much better than au

are there a lot of sheep?

i'm happy you both love my country, i do. xp

hey y'all i registered here to say how excellent it was to meet lxy & jergins & estela this week. i love nz too, have fun there guys and drink some CCL&P it is delicious and probably good for you.

l&p really is amazing. good for preventing car sickness too.

i'm so happy you love nz!! <3 <3 <3 the old cliche about not knowing what you have to till it's gone is so true :(

lxy: i thought shopping is aus was CHEAP! it was when i visited there a few years ago.

do you think you'll get to visit new plymouth/taranaki? i recommend it: you can drive up the mountain and go for a nice walk! view is amazing.

haha hi everybody

@harbl: yep, lots!
@estela: thank you, yes, i love it a lottttalot!
@jabba: so great to meet you, too, thanks for such being a lovely host (along with sic and pato). come visit any time (sandbox, seattle). i <3 sydney.
@ruby: (i almost called you rugby lol) yeah, aus is exp compared to the us and the nz. not that i've done tons of shopping, mind you, so maybe actual goods are cheaper? dunno. anyway, it's okay because i'm very happy to spend my $ in a different neighborhood.

xox on to the next thing!

<3 you all,
lxy

aw, it is <3warming to see you having such a splendid time!

so did u guys throw the ring in mount doom or

real enzed jaffas acquired, at last!

and l&p!

licorice&piss

nothing from p**** n*** so far.

did u like l&p???

can you guys stop speaking in code plz

nz code. u been away too long

l&p kinda nast

i just read that out to f. and he laughed hollowly.

all of a sudden we have wifi in the middle of nowhere btw

karamea isn't really a town. morelike a place.

had the worst dinner of the trip tonight

what did you eat and how was it garnished.

pasta garnished with onions and salmon. salad garnished with olives and kiwis. a gardenburger made of potatoes. drinks where ginger ale replaced soda&lime. disaster all around

not olives, grapes! with tomatoes and peppers! disaster all the way around.

i kinda liked l&p, i hope f. doesn't think less of me for it

if he does i will do a moonlight flit.

that dinner sounds horrible but not surprising.

welcome to the sandbox, jabba hands.

i don't like or understand a mixture of pasta and fish. it's ok with shrimp or mussels or clams but not fish.

salmon does well with pasta!

i wouldn't want like, trout pasta, though.

that meal sounds terrible, i am so sorry.

l&p kinda nast
