PN WOAH...

ahhhh the goodness of palmy.. i went home on saturday after work to spend the night with my nana. it's her birthday today, but i had to work so the best i could offer her was having me over for the weekend. i did plan to take her out for tea and for brunch on sunday morning but she was totally not interested! lolz i had to COOK! jeez! but i did it and i made a little old lady happy.

it reminded me that the people you once thought would be around forever, actually aren't. it made me sad to think that she was all alone in her big house next to drug dealers. (like, actually. he's a dealer).

when i first arrived all i could do was mock what i considered to be "junk" around the house and i was itching to throw crap out and re-arrange everything to be more spacious and easy to move around. then it hit me. it wasn't my place to do that. i mean seriously, how pissed would i be if someone came to my flat and did that to my stuff? how rude was i for even thinking that all her stuff was junk? i decided that i'd leave it because in all honesty compared to having 'not alot' growing up in samoa, her house is her castle.. i had no right what-so-ever in touching anything. i can't believe it's taken me lik, 25yrs to finally come to that realization. i mean, my nana has been telling me off for that for as long as i can remember! haha!

but anywho, i spent 25hrs away from wellington and i really couldn't wait to go back. in all honesty, i think it was the freedom to do whatever i wanted whenever i wanted that i missed the most. i did however, manage to 'sort of' ask permission to use her car to go and visit my friend who had a baby shower that day & drop off her present. (on a side note: OMG how expensive is palmers no stretch marks tummy butter?!). i must get my license! i'm so naughty for driving around without one. i miss driving.

this youtube clip reminded me of how much (at times) i actually miss palmy. especially the price of living compared to here & the plaza (like actually!!)

randomness:

- welsh dude moved out on sunday leaving this note on the white board: "guys & girls, it's been emotional. good luck for exams etc." (like seriously WTF? who writes that?!)

- new flat mate, canadian dude moved in on sunday. i'm pretty sure he's a self made millionaire aaaaand also a stoner & low-key alchy that's just bumming around the world because he can.

big week ahead:

- the girls arrived from samoa yesterday & are here for 10 days

- ghetto booty arrives from auckland this thursday and is here until sunday

- friendboy's dad arrives from samoa on thursday after being away since june

- mumzy comes down for the day on saturday to get her haircut at buoy

hmmm that's all i can think of for now..

have a great week y'all.
