So, my first semester at University is now finished, its over, its complete.
I sat my last exam this morning and so I am now awaiting my results which I think take about three weeks from the end of the exam period to be marked and put online for us to see.
This afternoon I was a bit baffled as to what to do.. I am thinking I am going to need to find some projects to work on over the semester break as I am not going to have episodes of Greys Anatomy to catch up on.. but I am thinking about starting the Games of Thrones series.. not to sure if I want to enter the obsession that everyone has over it though.
I have a busy couple of days ahead of me and then it will die down and I hope to be off exploring and adventuring, one plan is to go to Rangitoto Island, to do walks around there and to spend the day there. I believe that Rangitoto Island is New Zealand's newest formed volcanic island, approximately 600 years old.
Tomorrow I am involved in the National Men's Health Day in Northcote with a team of student nurses taking blood pressures and blood sugar levels (yes, sticking people) among other things.
I am then going to be going straight from the event to hitting my bed and having a nap before I go to work and do a night shift. They joy of having a holiday and being able to ring work to actually ask for some shifts instead of other things!

Spontaneous night to the City...
..Taylor and I started off by Taylor deciding to come to my flat after she finished work and then we wanted to do something different, spontaneous and just to get out of the house... so we went to Takapuna Beach, then headed off to have dinner at Pita Pit.
...Taking random "selfies" (I hate that word with a passion..) at the beach...
KiwiYo for dessert..
This is just the beginning of our random, just cause we felt like it trip into the city on a Saturday night.
After eating and as we were about to head back to Albany we were on the road to the motorway on/off ramps, talking about how I love the massive bendy curve bit from Esmonde Road North, and how Mum always forgets and hates it and seems to end up heading into Auckland City.
On our way into the city we had a few options of where we wanted to go and explore and ended up at the Skycity parking lot where we thought, hey, lets go up the Skytower just for the fun of it!
Down to buy the tickets... I didn't have my student ID on me but he let me get in for student prices! YUS!
Going up... up... up... 51 stories up!
You could see the city from inside the lift!
Taylor's first time EVER going up the skytower!!!
Random skytower photos..
AUCKLAND CITY!!
Standing on the glass.. scary when it decides to creek!!! haha..... we jumped on it too!
Taking photos of the magnets.. (I should keep this in mind sometimes...)
Love this one!!
After the skytower we went for a walk to look at the cathedral.. (Skytower is the red lit building in the distance)
......Photos....
Sad to be leaving...
actually it was cause these people tried to use the ticket booth before us..... we were there first.. :)
It was a rather awesomely spontaneous trip into the city but it was pretty cool to see the city at night and walk around Hobson Street and down a couple others... walking past clubs and bars... Hurry up and turn 18 Taylor!!
Finished my night off with a cider at my flat :)
