Long time, no blog

Riight...I guess it's time for me to rev this thing up again, seeing as I have way too much free time right now. Lots of news since the last dismally distant post, decided to stay in Auckland for quite a while longer, got a new girlfriend, got a new job, got a CELTA certificate, meaning I can teach English in more places for more money, at least in theory. Don't know whether it's the new girlfriend that's the reason for me staying in Auckland, or the fact that this place has addled my brain so much already that I'm now too stupid to leave. Still seem to be the shallow, fashion obsessed geek that I usually am, though more so lately. Working only 3 hours per day though, I don't really have that much to spend on poncy facial products and new threads, so I guess I might have to make the switch back from metro- to hetero-. I can hear my Dad silently willing it as I type... (uh, _slight_ oxymoron there). No idea how much longer or even if I'll be maintaining this blog. I don't really trust myself in that regard any more, considering how long it's taken me to post this entry. Mind you, it's either blogging or killing time in bookshops, so maybe all you non-existent readers of this'll have more from me to read in the future. Or not. Made quite a lot of friends on the CELTA course I did a couple of months ago, including the new girlfriend. It was quite hard work by my standards, pretty glad it's over though I'll miss the relief from having finished a class, and the beerfest afterwards. It also means I'd better be careful about what I write, or rather, how I write it. I'm fair game now for any grammar nazis considering I really should know better. One of the downsides of being an English teacher I guess. The new job's pretty good, only teaching a couple of students every weekday and another student at weekends. Still, better than nothing, and it's quite a big international chain, so it might be possible to get a transfer later on, here's hoping for Hawaii. Can't think of much more to write now, or possibly ever again, knowing me.
