fully forgotten and almost CBF anymore, MEH!

so flights casually got changed and nobody told me for like 3 weeks, all fixed now though!
RWC2011 is all I have been thinking about lately, ALL BLACKS are cruising through (as expected)

Scored a job at the stadium working security too! not heaps of fun but I get to go stand on the pitch which is pretty shweeeet!

Unfortunately not THAT secure...

any-Wheys ive been recieving monthly police checks from the government for some reason, everytime says I am all good to hit up the US-A clogging my box though < that would sound so much funnier if I were a girl.....

O dear, so havent done any uni work for nearly a month, got the glandulars all up in my fever and shit like that so yea... it can go fuck off asap in my opinion! hm hmmmm what else to yarn about

Americans....

 yea thats how one american portrays them in cartoon.....

Q: what do you call an intelligent american?

A: A tourist!

so I joined the american group... sorry the second american group after one guy stirred some shit and made heaps start a new one [side story: he got into our AUS/NZ group yesterday and already was being a prick, haha blocked that dickhead within 20 mins, good times, good times..] anyways this second group, they hadnt even applied until like 3 weeks ago!
Madness ae!? so theyre all applying and interviewing and shit, more than half of them, I SHIT YOU NOT, are a weeee bit insane, they were freaking out and practicing for their interviews, like some chick had 10 pages of notes!!! I nearly got arrested before mine! come on!! and then after there interview theyre all having a winge about how they didnt feel as though they "wanted" it enough to the recruiters!?!?! WTF!? I rocked on in, spun a yarn and BOOM, Im in! some people ae......

Its a shame I couldn't find anything more appropriate for my american column, he is crying, and fat.. AAAAND eating.. but its a watermelon, so its kind of healthy. hmmm

Fuck it! good enough!!

and hillarious, MOAR LOLZ

Ooooops... Nearly Forgotten!

Haha

Sooooo kinda forgot to update this for a while.. my Bad.

Flights Booked, Accomodation prior to Disney (almost) booked aaand just waiting on my police check to scan and send away to Disney

My Flights are:
Wednesday 4/01/11
VA0071 - 8:15am CHCH > SYD
VA0001 - 12:15pm SYD > LAX
VA6515 - 10:20am LAX > MCO (also Delta fight) OMG Time travel!
Arrive in Orlando @ 5:57pm




ans I'll be staying at the Holiday Inn Vista Way.. (pretty much right next to where I'll be living for most of my time there. and I'll be staying with Christine W (Auckland), Kim W (Sydney) and Keillan W (Melbourne) from my arrival until the 7th when we check in!!! gonna be epic, I think we are all gona get put in vista way (which I have heard is party central) so its going to be MADNESS! I even found a rap about Vista Way on youtube (see below) it's quite catchy.

So Stoked to get a Job prior to leaving, gonna save up some big moneyz before I hit the US [where everything is as cheap as chips!] I'll be one of the 24 on pitch Security Guards at Otago Stadium during RWC2011!!!!! hopefully I'll get assigned as a runner. that would be epic, gives me the right to smash the pitch invaders if they get onto the field, and a cool $14 p/h plus 8% holiday always goes a long way!

O O Ooooooo plus my car got written off... yea sucks but because damage was more than twice what I paid for I'm getting a settlement thats going straight to savings for Disney! nothing like a cool $2k from insurance (when I only paid $1.7k) WIN!

I usually include a funny picture with all my posts.... hmmmmmmm Well I heard legoland is opening in October in Orlando so if Disney loses me... you'll all know where I am

Soooo Close and Diversion

Sooo, I am >>>>>>| |<<<<<<<<<< this close to finally booking my flights!!

*FREAKOUT*

any who, it should only be a matter of days until I have done this and then I will feel so much better haha, Im also looking into how im going to be spending my moneyz over there, through the grapevine suggests american express which sadly limits to people with incomes... stupid frickin uni..

however I found a lot of the banks do them as well, whats better is they lock the exchange rate.

as of today US86c!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! overvalued to the max!! im going to check the banks out on monday when they open again haha and hopefully secure myself a nice little overvalued spending money courtesy of financial markets

Now to the important part... Diversion, a nice wee thing the court system has here in NZ, I have all intentions of using mine during RWC2011 for one of two occasions,
a) All Blacks WIN!!
b) All Blacks lose...............FUUUUUUUUUU

hence the problem, although diversion is a means of a "get out of conviction" scheme.. how will I justify its worthiness? I mean I intend to cause a bit of mayhem, nut how much is too much. and to what extent might it keep me from international travel, that is the US...


ooo and my police check which is only a week away from applying for hah

story to be continued......... (Refer to 23rd October 2011)

Flights, Flights, Moar Flights!!

So ive been casually browsing flights from a variety of websites, airlines etc to a somewhat mixed result..

there are cheap flights, indeed cheaper than I thought possible, but they are with crappy airlines, as in, when I'm sitting down there are no movies, no extra food, and probably just water. I mean i'm a student so I know how to live on the cheap but shit. over 24hrs of travel in an uncomfortable seat with little entertainment... reminds me of my last hospital visit.. I would actually prefer hospital of some of these airlines!!

But hey, it's frickin Disneyworld!!!!!!!

anywho, my older brother is getting return trips to belgium and shit cheaper than I can fly to LA, wtf!? belgium is an obscure eurpoean destination, LA is.. well LA! fuck airlines! I may just rage when I get there haha

It's almost cheaper to go to Sydney then to LA than it is to go from Auckland! what has commercialism done!! while everyone is frantically booking, I have been entertaining myself with a few Oatmeal comics regarding airplanes and the sorts (see below), this has kept me mildly entertained as I contemplate all of the shenanigans I could achieve on a long haul flight!

I actually cannot be Fed with Uni at the moment, my classes are to easy and I just wanna go to Disney already!!

anyways...

now today..

so today I made this blog after reading everyone elses with the links from facebook haha,

got my passport sussed (looking flash as!) well it had better cause it didn't come cheap
got all my other info in and now just waiting for August to tick over so I can get my police clearance.

I wonder if Driving Demerits count against me....
25 - (2009) passengers on my restricted
20 - (2010) speeding (68 in 50)
and none more.. (thank god speed cameras don't count!.... x5)

otherwise clean as a whistle!

that one thing

faaark my grammar has been average so far... apologies.

so the story goes like this,

I'm filling in some paperwork waiting for my interview while the lady from STB and the other Disney woman looks on, trying to make a good impression I start spinning a good yarn with them..

however it went from bad to worse.. the Dinsey woman (who's name I can't remember) was wearing really high pants and this flowing light top and had quite a plump belly...

I assumed she was pregnant.... I mean she seriously looked pregnant (I can generally tell if someone has had one too many chocolate bars)

Advice: NEVER ASSUME

she wasn't..... and fuck was that awkward or what, I kept apologising as the two women laughed it off..

but shit, I thought I had blown it then and there.

Disaster Struck (well.. almost)

so my interview was at 4:30 that same day and I had the job of picking up my wee bro from high school, once we got home he nagged me to take him round the corner to the school hostel so he could purchase some illegal laser pointer (those green military ones with a 3km range) of a friend from school, we're driving along and I thought, fuck this.. i'll take a shortcut through a local motel cos' it's quicker, driving through and about halfway a giant gate is locked and there's no access.

As I reverse out my car gets blocked in the carpark by some angry old fella who happens to be the owner... he was MAD as the MAD Butcher!!!

he then went on to swear and go nuts at me and my brother, dragged us into the office and told us to wai there till the cops arrived. will sitting there contemplating how I was gonna talk our way out of it, the cops arrived at 4:35......

of course this guys such a nutter, the cops were laughing on the way up and told us to act like we'd been told off (best cops I've ever met)

anyways by then I figured I was late and wasn't sure whether I should go.. I did in the end (after speeding through the back streets of Dunedin) and arrived 15 mins late only to find that they too were running late and it would all be fine. I felt as though I had aced the interview afterwards.. however one thing weighed in the back of my mind......

In the beginning....

So it all began some day in May... can't remember exactly was strutting strolling through uni, contemplating going to my next lecture and saw this thing about disney or something or other and decided what the hell,

it'll be more entertaining than my lecture..

this seminar was unique, the hosts were very american and the wee films we watched were soooooo cheesy. at the end I thought I'd have a crack, I was over New Zealand, and Dunedin and thought a change for a while would be sweet so I signed up for an interview later that afternoon.....
