Well, this week was not very exciting. Monday through Friday I went to lecture and lab. In my geol paper this week we learned about rock fall and different types of landslides. In my pscy paper this week we learned about self esteem. We also did a lab about how people’s self-esteem fluctuates daily and there constant self esteem. We are going to have to write a lab write up about this and if there might be any relationship to peoples self esteem and the way their parents treated them. In my maths paper we are continuing to do logic things and are learning different proofs. In my CHCH class this week we focused on connecting. One of the things that was brought up was doing service learning in school. I feel I did some in high school and I enjoyed it so it was interesting hearing others opinion.
On Wednesday night I played soccer again. The game I played in was a lot of fun because we were able to work well as a team and do combination passes. I also enjoyed it because I got to talk with people who are not students. I talked to an Irish women about the rugby world cup, which was fun because the USA and the Irish are in the same loop. (I do not really care how the USA team does because I am an All Blacks fan but it was fun to joke around about it.) On the topic of rugby the second game for the All blacks was on Friday against Japan. Sadly there are no games in CHCH because the stadium is not standing any more. There is a fan zone area at North Hagley Park that shows all the games on big screens. With one of my friends we headed over there to watch the game. Once I got there I felt like a true fan.
As you can see in the picture I am wearing an All Blacks jersey and it is raining so I was a true fan going to watch the game. I was hungry so I decided I was going to go kiwi style and get a mince pie. It was soooo good. We had an adventure trying to get back to campus after the game. We tried to go on the same bus that we took going to the game but the opposite direction and the bus we wanted did not stop there. We were not sure how we were going to get back. We walked towards a busy road hoping to pass a bus stop. When we finally reached one we were looking at what busses stopped there and in how long. Most of the busses has stopped running for the night including the bus we wanted. A bus did drive up and we asked the driver if he was going near the university. He said he did not go but he would make a stop at a road near it for us. It was really nice of him to do that so we did make if home finally safe and sound. On Saturday I went grocery shopping and did some work. That afternoon one of my friends came over and we baked some cookies. It was fun to hang out and make some very yummy cookies. Sunday was just another work day, trying to get my reports done.
This week I do not have any exciting plans so far but I might go down to the fan zone again to watch the All Blacks play the French. Until next time have fun and smile :)
