| The time has come to retire my Xanga and move on to a .com
Dreamingnz.com will be our blog (Jayme and I) regarding our adventures in New Zealand..
Go to it and lemme know what you think.
Official blogging will begin once we're setup in NZ.
Go check it out!

| Finished my last semester with all A's again...
which finally put me over the top - I graduated Cume Laude
yay yay yay!

| Quick update:
+ New Zealand is really freakin close - we're leaving January 16th!
+ I'm considering making a blog for our adventure in NZ. Taking suggestions for .com names..
+ I graduate next Friday - "and the people rejoiced...yay."
+ I'm starting to get nervous/excited in all of the weirdest ways...
+ I'm nervous about my Business Finance final...I need a hug.
+ I turned vegetarian. Why? Health mainly; I'm not going to get into it, just respect.
How's that for a quick update? Don't worry, my blog will be mucho better.
Out.

| Reality is hitting me.
Jayme and I will be in New Zealand in 4 months, and we will not return for at least 2 and 1/2 years, probably 5 years. We called the NZ Embassy this morning to clarify visa information. Our next step is to seek out a bit of school loans for the trip - which we must have before applying for our visas.
There is so much here that I won't miss. I won't miss the Bolivar bubble, I won't miss SBU, I won't miss a lot. I will miss my family of course. I'll miss my friend Ben, dearly. I'll miss the financial independence that Jayme and I have been able to achieve here as of late. (Meaning we are living comfortably atm)
Just as Tolkien said, "How do you pick up the threads of an old life? Then in your heart, you begin to understand...you cannot go back."
I feel these 4 months streaming by me as Jayme and I tie up loose ends. What an adventure we are setting out on. We are both insane, we know this - but what is any life if not in pursuit of a dream?
This is our dream...has been for four years...and we are going to do it.
