clap clap to anyone who deciphered the title, for all those that didn't it simply means that i turned twenty on the 7th, which was thursday here. okay, so the last week i've been away on course at ruapehu (www.turoa.co.nz, www.snow.co.nz, www.ruapehu.co.nz) of the ONE day i got snowboarding, i fair enjoyed myself. some guy came booting up my blindside and took me out, only to land on my (already fairly buggered) knee, but i figuired if i's gonna have any chance i'd hafta keep snowboarding for the day whilst i was still cold (no swellign etc) and my muscle was still warm (flexible, not overly tense) so i continiued for the rest of the day, probably not the best idea, but was most enjoyable. for those of you that have done 4th or mayhap it was 5th form psychology, you'll've covered peak experiences, and this was definately one of them, this correlated with my time with sam in the snow back in the middle of this year, memories come back. it's good. anyway, so the next day (we were at this lodge-cum-camp place (all 30 or so of us)) i was too sore to go back to the snow, so i just fucked around, twas my birtday, so i figuired what better way to celebrate than smokke copious ammounts of dope and sink copious ammounts of piss. so i did. i'm amazed i can still handle "big nights out" anyway, i got back all sore and tired and stuff, and i'm apparently now sick so. fark. i'm feeling old. i'm no longer a teen. guh. ohwell, i need to write to mum, and finish my letter to rach. ohhyeh, and to whom-e'er posted the comment that feste was the clown in the twelfth night, i know, just many of the muppets that drop by willn't and it's a good bit of imagery for them to be imagining a smarmy clown rather than some unknkown called feste. but thanks, for pointing that out. anyway, i be off. nothing-in-particular is calling me away. hope you are all well -oh- one more t'ing. Jen, my friend, who has had some major health issues (namely: cancer) had half her stomach and most of her intestines removed a few thursdays back, and i suppose it was my birthday present that she got out of hospital this thursday past and is demi-coherent. but of a good mind. my thoughts and prayers go with her, as should yours. yeah. so hope all yous are dandy.
