Exams are finished (campus wide), and I have already been on holidays for a week!
Its funny when there is no Uni to do or even think about (unless I jump ahead into next semesters textbooks) and none of my flatmates are here... It has become very quiet and very cold as no one is constantly in the lounge resetting the heater when it turns off (every half an hour...)
Although I have spent the last 4 days at home (yesterday I came back down), and I'm going back tomorrow... (so my car can get new brake pads and its oil leak fixed and so I can go and see Mum Friday).
Last Tuesday (16th June) I went to Piha with Caitlin as the others were going into the city, and we went for a walk/hike to the waterfall half an hour or so into the Waitakere Ranges. It was beautiful! Once we got over the rocks around the waterfall we found a track of mud and used tree roots as footholds to climb up a further 15minutes above the waterfall and found a second one. (We did have a little difficulty getting down though...)
After going to the waterfall we drove over to Piha beach to walk along it and make footprints in the sand... and ended up shin-deep in the ocean- boy was it cold!!!
Photos to come...
