On my own!

3 november 2017 - Christchurch, Nieuw-Zeeland

Joe and Christhine brought me to the airport in the morning. We had a coffee together and then they had to go back home and I needed to go to my gate.

For my birthday I got a really awesome belt from my boyfriend. But it's not really handy when you're travelling. Because at every security and scan area you have to take it off. And that belt has three different parts that you need to take those apart. It's not made for people who are in a hurry or doesn't have patients. Luckly I'm not that kind of person.

I got in the plane and made a playlist straight away. Let the party started! And when you are bored or just want more then just music then go to the toilet and have a dance because they have awesome blue lights in there or just learn all the 256 butterflies that are on the wall. Now you ask yourself. . did I really counted them. . Just wonder, am I a person that would count them? I'm defenitelly such a person but I didn't, I just liked the blue lights in there.

When I was sitting in the next airplane I wanted to close my seatbelt but it didn't close smooth, well it just didn't close properly. Then I turned the lock around and then it went. I was wondering why because the lock was straight and it looked the same at both sides. I thought it was interesting so I looked and played with it just a bit. Then one of the stewards came to me and showed me how I had to close it properly. I thought it was pretty cute that he thought that I needed help with that, acctually I felt really stupid that he thought I needed help with that but oke. . for some 12 year old it can be tricky. But still. . I found it interesting but had figured it out BY MYSELF aswell. For people that are not working that hard and are bored. . just have a look at the picture off the seatbelt and see why it doesn't work both ways!

A few hours later I was at my hostel (around 22:30) and decided to have a look around. After five minutes a girl and a boy asked me if I wanted a drink.  . I thought that they wanted to show me where I could get some and I said, "yeah that would be great". And then she offered me one of hers. She had a box full of cans. Hmm I already really like those kiwi's.

I found a pub and they had security outside. I wanted to get in but the security man asked me for my ID. But offcourse I didn't got that on me because I just was walking around. He asked me how old I was and I had to think about that for a second before I answered. Then he asked why I didn't got any with me and I said that I just got here a few hours ago and was checking the area out. . That was good aswell and he let me in.

They had live music there. And I really love live musik! That's because I like to scream (you can not call that singing) with the music and dance aswell.

I didn't had a lot of cash with me but that was fine, I don't have to drink a lot when I'm going out. And I think $13,- for one beer is pretty high. It took me over an hour to finish that one but I got my card with me so went for another.  I wanted to pay with my card but it didn't work. Apparently you can only pay with a creditcard and I didn't had that one on me, I just didn't had a lot on me. But they had an ATM in the bar so I could get money out. . I turned around and someone said, no that's fine I will pay for it. Well that was nice. I hadn't seen that guy before and he hadn't even looked at me but I thanked him anyway. I straight away got myself some money out so I could pay him one back but I haven't seen that guy again for the rest of the evening.

Time to go dancing again. I really enjoyed myself and someone came towarts me and wanted to dance with me. Thanks but no thanks. It was my first evening by myself and I just wanted to have a drink and dance. Someone else asked my why I had a bruise on my arm. Well that's because I was in a barfight last night. . so with other words; BACK OFF. I didn't say it like that but I just wasn't there to talk to people. I can really enjoy an evening and not talk to anyone, just lisening to music, dance and take an hour to drink one beer. Just me, myself and I.

You can see that as arrogant and perhaps I got a little bit arrogant over the years but I don't consider myself as really arrogant. I (would) do a lot for people (even if I don't know them or not know them that well) and I even do more for them then myself but I'm not here for other people, I'm here because "I" want to. And those guys. . just give them 5 till 15 minutes and they are dancing or chatting with another girl. So I couldn't be bothered.

Time to go back to my hostel and get some sleep. Simone was coming tomorrow!

    "Just me, myself and I" een mooie uitspraak! De mensheid liefhebben is, beginnen met jezelf.
