The last month and a half : )

Ok, so over the past month and a half, whathave I been up to? I thought I'd treat you all to an update! : )

August -holidays! They were awesome!! I went home for about 10 days to lovely Hamilton. My mum turned 50 so that was fun - cos turning 50 means you get to celebrate and have ALL the family at your house at once -I love it!! : ) (I don't want to be 50 yet at all, I just like the celebrating with family part)! : ) We had a real awesome time!! It was good!

September - I turned 22, and my Grandad died - all on the same day. Yeah, so instead of going back to uni - I was off up to Gisborne for the funeral. It was very very sad. I cried lots. Me and my dad and my 2 brothers and 2 uncles played Grandad's favourite hymn, it was arranged specially for the funeral. That was hard to play but we all managed somehow. Death is strange huh!?
Anyways, the rest of September has been taken up with uni mostly and some socialising on the side. Somehow managed to change churches, wasn't church-hunting or anything, infact was quite happy at Ilam, I just started going somewhere else. We got a flatmate for next year out of it though. so that's cool!! : )

Now it is October and I am slowly becoming myself again - I find that death-stuff really knocks it out of me and I'm just not myself for a while afterwards, you know how it is!!
Anyways, that's the life of Hannah for a while - not very exciting huh! Oh well, I had fun! : )

Stay tuned...


...(actually that's probly not such a clever suggestion cos you never know how long it'll be before I ever get round to posting again!)
