Hey all, so much for writing more huh. I'd like to say it's because I've been overwhelmingly busy, the truth is I'm just now coming out of an ambition slump. Sometimes I have a hard time sitting down and focusing, usually about a month before the semester ends. My slump has been getting shorter every year though, so maybe by the time I graduate (December 2009 I'm pretty sure) I'll have the hang of things.

Anyways, Auckland... The weather is getting damp, usually around 60 every day and rain two or three times a week. Winter is coming, even if snow isn't. My classes are wrapping up, my last final is on June 18th. I'll be back in the states June 19th. My finals are spread out so I'll have some free time to see some new things. I'm heading down to Taupo with my friend Karla this weekend to go skydiving. Jumping 12,000 feet above the largest lake in New Zealand promises to be something I'll never forget, to say I'm excited would be an understatement.

I'm going to work on setting up a 2-3 day hike with my friend Kyle in the Northland in June. It's been a while since I've been outta the city. I haven't decided if I like the big city or not yet. It's nice to be able to walk to everything I need, but the scenery and atmosphere outside of Auckland has just been amazing.

I decided to take some pictures of my place, as you can see it's got the 'lived-in' feel to it by now.





Well I'm off to work on some whale-tracking software for class, I'll take a bunch of pictures in Taupo and get them up here soon. Take care everyone.
