Hello everyone :D I know I haven't updated in a while, but we don't have unlimited internet here, and I ended up running out of my share of it :/ We might get unlimited today though, but we're not completely sure, since my "dad" got a text a month ago, saying we would be getting it, but he hasn't heard anything about it since then.
Anyway... it's starting to get warmer here :P but at the same time more windy, so I can't go to the skatepark and hang out with my friends, without blowing away on my way there :/
The past couple of weeks I've started to be more with my friends. We normally sit in some park (we have quite a lot here) or just walk around.
Next weekend we'll go on a family weekend to Rotorua. We will do a thing I don't quite remember the name of, but you sit in a gokart, and drive down a hill and get quite a lot of speed on the way down. My family told me that it's not really safe, and I will have to take care so I don't brake any bones, but with the luck I've had with injuries while I've been here, I can already look forward to a broken arm -.-
I hope that doesn't happen though, 'cause we might go Bungee-jumping in Taupe on the way home. I've already thought all the possible ways I can die through, so I'm now ready to litterally, jump into it.
We will also go to see some of the hot pools they have. I think I did this with my real family there too in 2004, but I'm looking forward to do it again.
I've started in school again after 2 weeks of holiday, and I already want holiday again. Luckily I only have to wait 2 more weeks untill my summerholiday starts, and I will have 3 months of relaxation with out pool :P We've planned to go to the South Island and have a look at how it is there. I've prommised my mom and dad back in Denmark, that I will write down some good places to go, since they will be picking me up in May. They told me a week or 2 ago, that while waiting in the airport, they decided to order some tickets to come pick me up :P We will then go home again June 3.
As mentioned before, my luck with getting hurt has really been a pain in the *ss since I got here. I started with falling on snowboard and sprain my wrist (thank god it wasn't broken). I then fell on my skateboard, and couldn't walk out the house for 3-4 days. Friday our pool at the school opened, and as a water lover I had to jump in it. but it was slightly more shallow than I thought, and I ended up injuring my foot (I have no idea how I did it). After that I couldn't really walk, and it only got worse and worse. I can't feel it todays though, but I had to call my "mom" to pick me up. Unfortunately she was in Wanganui to but a new phone, and I had to wait 35 minutes to be picked up.
On of my friends I met on my way here, has now changed family. Her family thought she was a whore, because she is used to (like I am) to be friends with both genders, and hang out with them too. A week ago she told me she wasn't even allowed to go to the shop to buy stuff. She had to go home right after school and take care of the family's children. She started to feel more like a 24/7 babysitter than an exchange student, so she now lives with one of her friends. Luckily my family isn't anything like that. They're pretty much like my family back in Denmark with the social life.
All in all everything in my life right now is good. I have awesome friends, pretty good grades, not very much homesickness, and a nice family to talk to if anything should happen. I am REALLY looking forward to next weekend, where I might just get to bungee jump (it's not final though), and I can't wait to go to the South Island.
Bye :D
