Hey everyone!!!!<BR><BR>Wow, some new faces have appeared since I was last in here............ hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm<BR><BR>Alcanielle-welcome back! I didn't actually know that you were indian or from singapore, so forgive my ignorance. Yeah Australia is a very nice country in some respects, but when it comes to nationaly beauty, I would have to say that New Zealand takes the cake. I went there on an exchange program, absolutely loved it too. Oh about the cricket, well I think that Australia should win just out of pure respect to Steve Waugh, I mean come on, it is his LAST EVER test series captaining Australia. But I don't want to get into an argument about it, you are too nice a person!!!! And finally, HOW CAN YOU LIKE THE CROC HUNTER!!!!!!!! It is really strange because most people overseas love him, but most aussies absolutely hate him, we think he is such a........................for lack of a better word (ahem)..............tool. I sooooooooooooooooo hope that most people don't think all Aussies are like that, honestly, we have had to put up with him for ages, he is such an idiot. But if you like him, thats cool, no probs here, he is still aussie I spose..................<BR><BR>Piccoleia-Kia Ora! Haere mai, kei te pehea koe? Not done very well, but you get the point. As you have probably already been told heaps, Ethel and Saro are the best adopters around, they are soooooooo nice and welcoming <i>Aaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwww</i><BR>I am an adoptee here as well, so I look forward to getting to know you! As you might have already guessed, I am an aussie, and also a tolkienaholic, but who isn't these days? I am so jealous that you live in new zealand, I went there for 3 months on a short matched exchange program 3 years ago. I stayed in the north island though, in Whangarei (I'm sure you have probably heard of it), but I never got to visit the south island. Tell me, did you get to see any of the production or anything? Being in the south island I was wondering if you would have had the chance to be involved. I will be so jealous if you did.<BR><BR>To everyone else: nice to see you all, I haven't been on for a few days. This arv at work, it absolutely poured rain, and because I currently work at a farm, we kept working out in the open. Needless to say that in 5 minutes I was drenched, but man it was soooooooo much fun. hehehe although the men found it rather enjoyable, with all the wet t-shirts on the females. So now I am frantically trying to get my shoes dry for tomorrow. YIKES! oooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh my countdown is now at 11 days until ROTK comes out, I can't believe you can all see it in 2 days! That sucks. Gosh, in a holiday review in the paper yesterday, they listed ROTK under the category 'Teens and the young at heart'. I was most offended. Oh well. I am planning to stay away from the internet starting the 17th onwards, just incase the explosion of spoilers becomes too much for me. But I am very proud of myself, I have avoided every single spoiler mentioned, no pictures or anything, apart from the trailer which I watch at least 3 times a day on a regular basis. But the sadness is just getting too much, the thought that it is all ending, and I won't have anything else to look forward too every year (apart from ROTK: EE). I think that half of my tears during the movie will be because it is the last one. Oh well. Like Alcanielle said, <i>All good things must come to an end</i>. Anyway, I think that is enough ramblings for one day, I'll talk to you all soon<BR><BR>Have a good time watching ROTK if I don't talk to any of you before then.<BR><BR>Varda
