pagman nearly blown off a hill plus the greatest band ever!!

Well maybe not the greatest band ever but at least the greatest band that's still together and really old. So living in New Zealand is about the lowest point of my life really however I'm slowly adjusting, I nearly forget what really fast internet is like. Anywho, I used to live in Vancouver which is a pretty cool place, they get lots of concerts and are close to places that get really cool concerts. I had some friends who went to the Rolling Stones in Seattle when they were there and I was really disappointed that I didn't get to go. Well now I live in Wellington and guess what? The Rolling Stones are coming and I now have tickets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:):D:D:D:) I am so excited. I actually don't know where the seats are but I don't care. Now today it's rather windy. Now I say rather windy but it's windy enough to cause 6m sea swells so... I was waiting for the shuttle because I'm too lazy to walk and was nearly blown out of the bus stop. Then the house is shaking now and it's kinda scary. I must remember to take a picture of the view from my house so you can see why it's scary when the house starts shaking in the wind and post it but it's rather windy and I'd probably get blown off the hill to my death and you wouldn't want to see the death of pagman.

GSR Club fini.

For those of you who actually know French I know I spelt it wrong and am not using correct tense. I just finished the 2nd GSR Club and sent a PM to a mod to lock it. Only time will tell what will happen to it. We now found ourselves in a new thread. We shall have just as much fun I'm sure. It took me a while to post the last post as I typed the last post in Word and didn't do some tags right. All is fine now however. Anywho let's go have a post party!!!! (Joking lets try and be normal for once.) :)

GSR Club reaches 1000 posts!

It was an ordinary Sunday morning for pagman. She got up early for once and found herself on the computer by 9:30am. The GSR Club had just gone past 500 posts, a record in it's own right as threads used to be locked at 500 posts. She sat down on the computer and began talking with various assorted people in the GSR Club. Among them ainav, jenlar, rock_royalty101, aussieforgood, Devonwood and various other I'm sure (if I missed you out, apologies, it's been crazy these past couple of days). That day they had about 12-something posts. A record. The next day pagman had the evil dreaded school and had to be in attendance :(. She got home a ride from the bottom of the hill and didn't have to wait for the shuttle and found herself home at 4:15 instead of her usual 5 o'clock. She didn't have any homework (or pretended she didn't that's probably why she got 10/15 in her French test today) and immediately logged on to this site to see the goings on of the day. She had a nervous break down when she saw what awaited her, 261 posts! She was quite surprised the mods and the Grillows did not issue such words as spamming but that didn't occur. She wrote a blog to the affect of WTH, why so many posts and then began the long task of going through all the posts and seeing what was happening. An hour later she finally finished and posted what she needed. That brings me to today. Pagman once again found herself at the evil and dreaded school, got a ride again, did her geography homework in about 5 minutes, and ran down the stairs to go online (after playing with my Dad's blackberry of course and sending emails to people being my usual crazy self). She didn't have as many posts to go through today, a number 'round about 80. She posted not expecting anyone else to be on, then had a rather interesting conversation with jenlar to bring the GSR club in to 1000 posts. Now I'm going to stop talking in the third person and begin talking like a normal person once again. I wrote a nice little speech in the GSR Club and suggest you go there and read it. We've seen a lot in that thread and soon we will be moving on to new and even more exciting things (at least at the rate things are going we'll have a new thread by the end of the week). Tomorrow I once again have the dreaded school and believe the most dreaded thing in the world will be occurring tomorrow, the 12 minute run. I might fake a heart attack before PE so I don't have to do it... If you go crazy tomorrow there will be consequences, just you wait and see.

GSR shippers go even crazier than yesterday.

I'm gone for 1 while I was at school and I come back and what do I find. I find that certain people in the GSR club have posted 261 posts! WTF guys, I am so going to be playing catch up for an hour. The good news is that I, pagman, have actually started work on the fic I mentioned yesterday. I still have to find the title which by now is probably 30 pages away. Oh well, now I'm off to play catch up over at the GSR club. Expect me pop back up again in a couple of hours.

The day GSR shippers went crazy.

Have you seen the GSR Club today, it's been crazy. I left for maybe 40 minutes and I get back and there was 20 new posts to read. It's like a crazed posting spree or something. And nothing overly bad or overly good has happened in the spoiler world. I've also decided to begin work on a completely new fic (parody of course) about GSR controlling lives or something like that. The title is in the GSR club somewhere today. It seems that only today we were at 500 posts and now we're nearly at 600 (well halfway to it but still, that's good work for one day). Yeah, hope everyone has a good weekend I still have to study for French but this site is more entertaining.

I'm crying on the inside. Also something about Crazy New Zealand (Part III)

So I find out today that the Canadian Men's Hockey team lost to (I believe) Russia and won't even get a chance at a bronze medal. We won last time (and will always remember where I was when I heard that they had won) and to hear we lost just makes me so mad. We still have a chance to win some other medals which is always good. Go curling!!!! (Just joking, it's a sport that bores me). So yesterday in PE we were playing with (and I hope you know what I'm talking about) a parachute. Now I'll describe it to you just in you don't know what it is. A parachute is one of those huge multicoloured things that little kids play with. Our PE teacher decided that it would be cool to play with. So that was fine and we started playing various run underneath it games and the colour that I was had to run and someone crashed into me. I fell ans slid across the floor. I have a huge fricton burn with an even larger bandaid on it. I didn't have any bandaids at school so my leg kept getting stuck to my skirt as it was oozing. The bandaid I'm currently wearing limits mobility and it has slowly filled with fluid from my knee. I don't look forward to pulling it off. So lets see what crazy NZ is doing now. Ah, they are getting rid of nickles. Who would want to do that? Yeah, that's it for their craziness but stay tuned for more as something is bound to happen soon.

Camp's a b**** then you go home.

Well wasn't camp just filled with lots of fun and excitement? It was boring and now it hurts to walk up stairs from the hiking and kayaking. I got up on Wednesday to go and actually thought about throwing myself down the stairs so I wouldn't have to go but decided against it as I looked at how steep they were and thought I would probably die instead of just break something. After a 3 hour ferry journey and a 4 hour bus ride we arrived at Abel Tasmen National Park. Then I proceeded to hike for 4 hours with my pack on my back. Then it was time for dinner where I had hot bacon grease spilled on me and did get burnt. At that point I was so tired I went to bed and slept. I got up the next day and kayaked for 3 hours. Then we went on short 45 minute hike and decided to take the shortcut back but it was high tide and we had to swim across. Then we went swimming and just chilled out for the rest of the day. On the last and final day we had to run the same trail we walked the day before. Then we went on the water taxi back which was fun (the only fun part of the trip) then had another 4 hour bus ride and ferry trip back. On the ferry I wrote postcards and started a list to send in to Jon and Rob over on at Top of the Pods (subscribe now!!) which I shall send over tomorrow when I type it up. I was told that it would be a great way to make friends but it wasn't. I was pretty much ignored the entire time and was in a tent with lazy people who I wouldn't really consider friends. They snored and we're overly annoying. I took the tent down myself and when asked one of the girls on the last day to get out so I could take it down saw she was text messaging someone as people in NZ seem to be addicted to it. They got signal and were overly happy then their batteries ran out and were sad. Tomorrow will be a catch up day on this site as no one shall be home and can do whatever I want. After I fully catch up here I'm going to watch CSI and 24 and eat a grilled cheese sandwich. It shall be heaven after 3 days away in a place I didn't like. I still hate NZ internet but that is it for now.

So I'm gonna be gone for a period of time.

Ah... So I'm going on this hike/camp thing with school and will be gone for three days. I get back on Friday at like 10:00pm so I doubt I'll be on then. In my mind I am compiling a list of why I hate NZ so stay tuned for that. This is a rather short blog so ttfn people and Happy Valentines Day for today or tomorrow.

I hate school (aka Crazy New Zealand strikes again (part II))

Finished the first week for school and it's not that it's a bad school or anything (it even leaks when it rains, made it really feel like home as my old school leaked when it rained.) I have even made some *GASP* friends. Next week I go camping and hiking for 3 days, yay (not). Some of the girls are real b****s (please tell me you know what this word is) and I come from a school where that was the norm so it's saying alot. Hopefully I will manage to survive the next year of my life. At least people like Lost and are unfortunately addicted to the OC (the worst show ever). I will not participate in OC conversations. I know I said I would be back on Tuesday here but that wasn't true. I was told that I would get internet on Tuesday but didn't. The guy came to install broadband on Thursday and killed our phone so we were phoneless for 2 days. Now I've got internet and am being told to get off so I don't waste GB. Do I really care? Not really. Now on to the crazy NZ part. They were showing the promo for the new CSI season and what do you think they shouldn't do. Scare the viewers which they did. They showed Nicky with his 'stache of doom. They start CSI tomorrow and we're at least 7 episodes away from the 'stache. Now they will have low viewers as everyone will be scared of the 'stache. I also so a Lost pic in a NZ magazine with Ana Lucia. She hasn't even been introduced this season. NZ really needs to think before they act.

Crazy New Zealand strikes again.

I may or may not have mentioned this title in my last blog but really like the title so decided it would be appropriate to use it now. My last blog was my first part II (again with the Roman Numerals, it makes me smart, especially when one is listening to the YMCA and doing the actions) and have decided that whenever NZ gets me down I'll have another part added. Most likely I'll be at part hundred million but oh well (uh oh, what's that in Roman Numerals:?) Moved into my house on Saturday, no internet, I get that on Tuesday (so tomorrow) and am at my Dads office using up all his GB if that's what fancy offices such as his are on for internet connections. You should have seen me beg to come in today. He was like, "I have to work and will probably be there for a couple of hours." My eyes lit up and was like, "don't really care." I've been ready to come here since 11:00 am and I left at 1:00pm. It's 3:15 now. I packed up my laptop in it's carry case which finally arrived. Double checked I had my mouse and charger along with the NZ power converter to plug it in. Then I added my iPod and USB to charge my iPod and download podcasts. Then I remembered I needed my fancy network thing so I could go online. Fortunately I remembered all. On Saturday I didn't even have a TV so I played the CSI board game. I of course won. I've owned it for nearly two months and only just played it for the first time. It's a fun game. Last night still without TV so watched 24. I start the dread school tomorrow. You would be surprised how someone of my age can be different at a private school. I've got it all planned out. I have to wear a uniform but brought some second hand shirts for it and as the uniform is navy blue, the shirt and the even more dreaded skirt (which is new) don't match as the shirts are faded. Then there is my lunch box. I got a Spongebob one. No one my age will have a Spongebob lunch box. I hope. Then there is a matter of my one lonely binder. Fortunately when I packed my backpack to ship down I packed in it the pictures I had in my locker (all my CSI ones). Now my old binders in Canada had clear pockets to put pictures on but I shall just have to tape these ones on. Then I'll bring my iPod, won't use it at all tonight so it's fully charged and just listen to it whenever I get the chance. I plan to live hermetically online when not at school or watching TV. School means less internet time as according to my brother's planner (he started school last week. Ha!) people in my Grade (if I went to his school which I don't, it's a boys school) at his school are supposed to study 2 1/2 hours a night. Yeah right. No way, I'd rather fail before I stop having a life. Thanks to everyone here who is being so understanding. I know you guys only pretend to miss me. Kanimbla and all_kill_ari, I would love Greg for Valentines Day. Feel free to send him over at anytime and you can even come visit if you really want. It's a rather boring country and I can't see you, all_kill_ari, would won't to come visit. Just lots of sheep. CSI STARTS ON SUNDAY IN NEW ZEALAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Probably the best news I've ever gotten after the disappoint of Lost this week. It was only Destination Lost or whatever the clip show is. The season actually starts this week so I will be waiting waving my Lost flag. That reminds me to pack some flags to wave at school. My CSI flag, my Lost flag, my Greggo flag, and probably my 24 flag. Should add about the laugh I got reading the paper today, snickers pie. Shippers, you know what I mean. To bad it wasn't a Grillows pie, I would have really lost it.
