2012, a tuesday
Up at 6am to work out. Overdid it; sore all day. Does not bode well for tomorrow or the next day. Snowed all day. Talked to my TA after astronomy, took a nap when I got home. During sed/strat lab, found out that my lab partner is the guitar player for Hot Club of Pearl Street, the amazing gypsy swing band Mom and I saw perform at the farmers’ market in October! Totally made my day. Home, found out field geology is cancelled again tomorrow; night observing was cancelled too. ‘Being Human’, ‘House’, ‘Gosford Park’.
2011, a monday
Yoga, did a bunch of new account set-up stuff. Processed NZ/Aus trip photos for probably 4 hours. Ate delicious food, watched some ‘Torchwood’.
2010, a sunday
left napier and crossed to the other side of the north island to the waitomo glowworm caves. after we were kitted out in wetsuits, helmets and innertubes we spent over an hour wading through the cave system, jumping over waterfalls and floating down the river with the thousands of tiny blue glowworm lights overhead as our only illumination (and guide out of the cave). afterwards we got hot showers, hot soup and hot bagels. we drove on to auckland and settled into our hotel suite – our home until we board the cruise ship.
