Exam time...

Yep, it's exam time again... But that means that it's nearly summer! My first one is on Monday and I'm all done on the 13th of November. Then Matt is meeting me in Auckland and we are driving back to Nelson via New Plymouth, will be good times! So back home (hopefully to a new house) on the 16th, otherwise I'm sure I'll be involved in the big moving mission! Good luck to everyone else that has exams on now, and to everyone else: I hope life is magic!
Best,
Andy

Happenings in Auckland

Just a quick update from life up here in Auckland...
It's pretty much just uni uni uni. We actually only have two weeks of classes left and then final exams. And then it's summer! So I will be back home in Nelson for summer and I can't wait! Mum and Dad should be in their new house by then too! :-D
But the last few weeks have been filled with tests, assignments and reports. I have a couple more due next week then I can focus on my exams. I'm all done on the 13th of November!
And Karina is working on getting a mileage ticket to come here for Christmas too! All fingers are crossed! Hope that everyone is great, take it easy!
Kærlig hilsen, Andy

90's Nostalgia

Haha, Matt started compiling a list of all the great things about being a kid in the 90’s for his own nostalgic reckonings. Nice one Horse, that’s awesome! It's on his MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/knockgrafton

Ministry of Silly Walks - Monty Python

Magic!

Haha, I think this is brilliant!

Lehmann to auction cheat-sheet
Jens Lehmann is to auction a crumpled note on the penalty habits of Argentina's players that he stuffed in his sock at the World Cup.

The Germany goalkeeper, who saved two Argentina spot kicks during their quarterfinal shootout, said the note had been hard to read because it was written in pencil and damp with sweat.

Studying the paper between each kick may have unnerved the Argentines, however, and helped Germany through to the semifinals where they lost to Italy.

Lehmann told German television the note, which has also appeared in a documenatry about the World Cup, would be auctioned for charity.

In translation it reads:

1. Riquelme left high
2. Crespo long run/right, short run/left
3. Heinze left low
4. Ayala long wait, long run right
5. Messi left
6. Aimar long wait left
7. Rodriguez left
