primo....


the primo park i mentioned before...but since blogger screws up my images...you are seeing it now...but don't you want to be here...












at the ballet..too bad you can't see my flash new stockings!































alright...here's what 300 new zealand dollars will get ya at the pack and save...
not to metion the 15 dollar cad ride home,
'cause it's just toooo much for the scooter!



well, here i am, slacking...well, really, i've been busy, and as a result...this has the potential of becoming a lengthy post:

alright..work,
it's good...it's work but i really like it,
and of course, there is the comic relief, just when you least expect it and need it the most.
highlights...realising that 20 year olds are no different than 10 year olds in the classroom...and that the 'paste eatter' in kindergarten grows up to become the glue sniffer in uni. and i had to issue a failing grade...and sometimes...i wing it...while the 'kids' take notes and whole heartedly believe i know what i'm talking about! cool.

why i'm here:
architecture i suppose...you know i love design!!! love it love it love....the freedom of creativity. (side note...i'm going to be working on a competition with simone soon...if i can get the spare bedroom cleaned up enough to work in it....as of this moment, the mouse is fighting with a pile of clothes....clean, yet unfolded)...but, back to the point:
nz architecture...makes the job search in the states seem gastly..side tracked again...

a new waterside park opened recently..and it's great...fantastic landscaping, skate park, primo materials, climbing wall, out door exhibitions...and very orderly...stodgey design like i like!!!!
(yay basic geometry and proportions!!!) it's really a nice place to be and wanted to share it with you.

those of you who know me, have lived with me, have shopped with me....know i have hip hop, gangsta tendencies....i have a not so secret crush on..you know...snoop dogg...and ...well, let's leave it at that...oh, and sometimes i like to play dress up...
anyway...i have found a home (ghetto) away from home (ghetto)...
i can get my freak on by way of Les Mills Body Jam classes..it's so fun...learning to shake what my momma gave me...we aren't talkin nsync pop and lock jive ....it's the real thing....i could be the next..shakira or the chick from pussy cat dolls, oh yeah....it's like 'breakin' meets 'west side story' meets 'compton'...
i might upload a video...worth a chuckle.

finally, only in nz...
do ballet and rugby comingle.
went to the ballet...a contempory nz ballet in the traditional form, it was great...you can read the story from the linke below...
but it was too cute seeing the traditional haka, scrum, and locker room put to a ballet...
it was a great experience...especially since i talked my way into a 'student rate' ticket!
the theater was quite nice as well:

that's about all to report for now and i need to check on the meat loaf...american comfort food, yummy..
if any of you can send a recipe for homemade mac and cheese..i'd love it..no kraft blue boxes here.

later

p.s.

i forgot to mention...we have some serious tranny prostituion just outside the building...maybe i can get a photo for show and tell
