She's Back....

...and of course I'm better than ever!

Well, where to start? I honestly don't know. I suppose the obligatory apologies are probably as good a place as any. Sorry, sorry, sorry for not updating my blog. I haven't forgotten you guys! I'm going to use the age old 'I've-been-really-busy' excuse, but it honestly is justified. Going to Otago Univeristy is definately not for the faint hearted - it's completely crazy, tumoltuous, scintillating, discombobulating, and probably every other cool adjective you could think of. So you can imagine that all these emotions could distract me a little from my blog.

I think I'll keep this short and sweet, or otherwise it will get too difficult to recount all the exciting (and sometimes not so exciting) times here and I'll spontaneously combust into a cloud of frustration.

Dunedin is a very cool city (although of course not as cool as Wellington) and Otago is a really cool univeristy (sorry, much cooler than Vic). Student city is no hyperbole in Dunedin's case. Everywhere you go students are the talk of the town - everyone's advertising to us, giving us discounts, offering us support, and (if you're a local) complaing about us.

It's not all fun and games though. I've just spent my semester break in the fabulous Wellington (more apologies for not seeing everyone) which means I'm now a little homesick, considerably poorer after large shopping sprees, very cold and very stressed out by all the work I am going to have to do this semester.

In other, less negative news, I have fallen completely in love with Regina Spector (you might have heard her song Fidelity on the Xtra-Yahoo ad). How can you not love someone with lyrics like 'it's just a little worse/than when we drove our hearse/into the screaming crowd'.

Well, I had better go and spend a romantic evening with Plato,

Love Char
