Thoughts

1) The west coast of New Zealand is full of fern trees, making it look like Jurassic Park

2) I have observed that the building I am staying in is not velociraptor safe. There are a lot of glass doors and and large windows that would make easy entry points for any velociraptor that had an inkling to eat me. Despite the advice of a friends "block all of the doors except for one, and bottleneck them" I still fear that I might not make it through the week due to the fact that the only weapon I currently have is my stunningly good looks. Tell my family that I love them.

3) I am currently my mom's favorite child because my brother has yet to call her from Spain where he is on a school trip.

4) I want to watch The Princess Bride because Spain always reminds me of Indigo Montoya....

5) Naps are pleasant, and I think I am going to embark on one... :D
