Fortnights and Final Finals

Omaha wakes up as Dunedin settles down to sleep.  I don't have anything in particular to write tonight.  I think I will begin studying tomorrow for my final final.  The exam is on Monday and is 40% of my grade.  I'm not worried.  Although it is a little disappointing that I'm still taking finals in the teens of June.  This is what I get for frolicking around Colombia and learning to cross country ski in January.  These last few days have been reminiscent of January, not because I was traveling over dirt roads through the Colombian countryside but because of the excess time on my hands.  We made a fort in my neighbor's flat a week ago which was easily one of the more fun things I've done this month.  Even with a whole country to explore the best fun is sometimes puttsing around the living room figuring out how to position a hockey stick so it holds up a sheet without falling down.  Although Elise and I tend to get wayyyy too in to these kind of things also, maybe it shouldn't have been that fun.  Now, it is time for another fun activity.  Sleep! Tomorrow I hope to wake up and go to this bakery that is only open on fridays and get some wicked Almond Croissants. Love ya. 

P.S. This post reminds me that New Zealanders often use the word "fortnight", as in 2 weeks.  Not often actually but compared to the near extinction from the American English vocabulary it's used quite often.   Anyway, thought I'd share.  Be home in a half-fortnight if there is such a thing.  Maybe half a fortnight is just a tentnight or housenight or something.  Bad jokes...bye!
