My new digs are beautiful. The house is lovely and the grounds are something out of a Jane Austen novel. I try to imagine what it would be like living in this house but it's so silly. Catholic priests used to live here, then some sort of buddhist monks. It was then an American summer school for rich kids where they did hippie things. Which I could totally see happening here. But amazing as this historical house is, today i feel like Harry after cleaning Headquarters. Tomorrow is my last day of work here and then a day sighseeing in town :)
Today I met a woman whose sister lives in Richmond! So crazy I love the 6 degrees of separation! Reminds me about a girl I met at the last place I was at. She graduated from Lewis & Clark. People, this was my dream school. Literally I spent countless hours daydreaming about going there. It's in Portland, Oregon and specializes in environmental degrees. But looking back I wish I had just applied, but it is a private school and wicked expensive . With all that time wasted I could have easily applied, who knows what could have happened? It's silly how we aren't always brave enough to do the things that would make us happy. And when I met the graduate from Lewis & Clark it was such a slap in the face of realization. Love it haha
today after everything was finished I relaxed on the veranda and did a little cloudwatching. NZ is the perfect place to do it bc the name means one long white cloud. It was erfect :) Also, I still can't get used to the rustling of tons of tree leaves. I still think it's rain. It's weird that I get confused. Shouldn't everyone know the specific sound? Ah the amazingness of being in NZ, in love!
