ok I'm coming home!

ok first thing is first please don't ask me about it! that's why I'm putting it up here! and please don't ask me if i am doing the right thing and ask if i will regret it later! the answer is yes i am doing the right thing and yes i probably will regret it but that's what i will deal with later.

the main reasons for me coming home are lots, i haven't really felt happy while i have been here at all, i feel lonely and out of place. i'm just not happy at all and i have this feeling inside me that's is just eating me up and makes me feel so sick i can't just stand it any longer. i miss every one at home and even a simple thing like talking to them takes planing. and that's not how i want to live my life

also i have been let down alot while i have been here, work, friends etc! and that has been getting me down! as well as frustrated and angry and has ending up costing me a hell of a lot of money.

its hard to explain feeling the way i feel and i know i should maybe have given it a little longer but the pain it is given me is unbearable. imagine being in a forest, lost and its cold, dark and you can see now way of getting out at all your stuck and scared with no way out! that's how i feel. only i do have a way out, and yes it maybe is the easy way out but I'm taking it and that's home!

look travailing and living in another country is not for every one! i thought it was for me! as it turns out it isn't at all i need to be around people i love and Care about (yes staying at the farm has been soo nice and my Auntie Carole and Uncle Simon have been brilliant at making me feel welcome) i have learnt that i don't seem to look at the whole picture before doing things, i just think of the good things and cast the bad aside! and something that 'seems idealistic' is probaley not and what really matters is what your heart is telling you not your head because your head can forget your hart never does. (god i'm making it sound like i'm breaking up with some one)

so there that why i'm feeling the way i do! Ellen i'm sorry just proves you are strong and brave and i really admire you! and well done! i am so sorry though! i do feel i have let you down a bit! xx

i know you all seems to want whats best for me (well most of you) and it is let me deal with the after effects!

thank you all that have followed but i guess this will be one of the last posts!

Thanks Adam xxx

Queenstown

















ok so yer we are in queens town and it is really nice the sun is shining ( i have a bit of a tan and that is not like me at all)The place is full of brits most of them working and living here! every where you go be it eating, drinking, jet boating you will be served by a brit! But we are staying in a really nice motel (run by kiwis btw not brits ha ha ha )and it opened the day we got here so we could not ask for it to be newer or cleaner! so yesterday (when we got here) we just had a wonder around looked at the shops and at the attractions you can do like jet boating, parasailing, bungy jumping (no thank you), sky diving etc etc. we then had a nice meal in a sea food restaurant which was nice and then strolled all the way back up the hill to are motel to sleep arrrrrr.

Today! it's waitangi day which is a New Zealand Bank Holiday!

from wiki!

Waitangi Day is a significant day in the history of New Zealand. It is a public holiday held each year on 6 February to celebrate the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi, New Zealand's founding document, on that date in 1840. The Treaty made New Zealand a part of the British Empire, guaranteed Māori rights to their land and gave Māori the rights of British citizens.

So there you go that is a bit of information for you all (see you do learn something every day!) and my dad and i decided to do some trilling stuff today! We started off with a cable car up to the top or a mountain where we did Luging! it is a bit like a sledge you can steer of dry land! that was fun! then we had some lunch in a irish pub (to be sure, to be sure) and then dad and I booked into 1 hour of jet boating which was really fun BUT at the start they asked me if i would like to wear a rain mac because of the spray back i said NO I WON'T GET WET! and they sat me right at the back in the corner which you get soaked in! ha ha ha was great fun tho!

we are now back in the room just having a rest before we go into town again for some nice food and drink YUM!

then tomorrow Dunedin another big town! bring it on!
