The Rebirth of Hoss

So I had probably the worst weekend, you can have in NZ, and pretty much my life turned around in a matter, of minutes. here's the lowdown.

- Friday, decided to make moves and get up to snowpark.
- Got to snowpark, and at first we were not feeling it, and then like emiril BAM we were having a blast filming camera swap lines and busting 50-50's and tindys like it was no-ones business.
- So, we then decided to hoss to Queenstown because like everyone in existence was in Queenstown.
- After our first bought with the BK lounge, we met up with fellow New Jersey adventurer and extremely drunk girl, Mary Kastner and crew.
- After having one beer, and watching these people be beyond drunk, we snuck into their hostel to sleep on the floor.
- After hearing to girls named Mary yell at each other; here's the exact script of their conversation
Mary number 1 : " Mary turn the light on I have to get out of bed to puke."
Mary number 2: "No!"
Mary number 1: I am going to puke on you!"
Mary number 2: "puke on me!"
Mary number 1: "turn the light on!"
Mary number 2: "No puke on me!"

The last to lines of the dialogue were repeated for about 15 minutes.

We eventually fell asleep.
So we woke up to Mike, whom me greg, nor Jbo had known, going "Who the fuck are you!"
he then laughed and said lets go skiing. So we piled in the beast formally known as: penolope, lucile, shaggin wagon, the hoss, we never settled on a name.
- We made moves up to Cardrona. After laughs and quick boughts of almost more vomit, we made it up to Cardrona.
- My mind was blown.
- We were boostin off everything, going fast and causing havoc.
- We were america.
- After jumping some rocks and landing some tricks, we decided to call it a day.
- We all piled back in the Mobile, and laughed all the way down the switch backs to the highway.
- Then it happened.
- Overheat number 1.
- We were almost to the top of a hill when she couldn't take it.
- A very nice man pulled over and towed us up to the top of the hill where we tried to get her cooled down.
- We did, and after jump starting the beast, we got her running and drove down another hill to another highway.
- Then Overheat number 2
- We didnt get her started again.
- After paying too much money to have her towed to a garage we somehow got back to the BK lounge. We sat there for about 3 hours. Idk if you have ever been to a BK lounge, they are nice. But after three hours in there, your mind starts to play tricks on you and you lose it. So we made it to Queenstown, and hobo-ed it for another hour or so, I mean classy hobo, because Jbo was rollin around his rolly suitcase. We got some serious strange looks.
- We snuck back into the window at the Flaming Kiwi, to meet a very not drunk Mary. We slept on the floor again, and in the morning were on a mission to get back to Dunedin.
- After talking to everyone and there sisters, we met up with fellow shred Michealian Tyler, and were able to hop into his car and get back to the home away from homeland.
- Sunday night was just a bummer.
- Monday we called the mechanic, and found out she had officially died.
- We blew the head gasket and cracked the head, the engine was shot.
- So I emailed the man love of my life, Big Phil, aka my dad and made a proposal. If he loaned us money for a new car, we would pay him back what he gave us after selling the car at the end of the semester.
- So after feeling down on the hoss, and a relatively OK irish wake for her last night I received an email, from the man himself, Capt. Hoss, aka Big Phil, aka Capt. Canoli, aka. Philip W. Crawford Esq. aka Dad.
- He agreed to my proposal
- I then saw an email from or program dude Mr. Guy and found out that he was not taking out event deposit, from the ice luging and curling expedition that we missed on Sunday due to our misfortune.
- So in the blink of an eye, Trev is back on top
- I also received my package from momma trev, aka mom, and feasted on some Pork Roll and Cabot Cheese.
- I have the best parents ever
- So thanks to them I am still having the time of my life
- Thanks love you guys

Dare

Just played some truth or dare, that was all dare. Had to get extreme and keep my self occupied on my scrump hiatus. List of dares that just occurred

- Louise (domestic) had to go next door with a plate chicken head combo mask, and throw paper plates at the random people in the flat. also had to go to another random flat, open the door take a bite out of a piece of toast, put it on the ground and walk away without saying a word.
- Louise (international) had to go another flat and ask to borrow a cup of water, and a spoonful of mayonnaise.
- Scott had to go to a random flat and ask people to translate "Can I please see you socks?" into different languages. He got it in Dutch, french, and spanish.
- Olivia had to go back to where Louise went in and threw plates, and ask if someone had seen her chicken
-Trev (Me) had to go to a flat and ask the people in there to rate a picture of Ke$ha on a scale of one to 10. She got an average of 7

We had some flat bonding on a night when we all did not want to drink alcohol.

Hello planet earth I am currently very sleepy sitting in a cafe about to munch a meat pie, if you know what I am saying ;) I am saying that I am about to eat a meat pie because they are amazing, hands down my favorite food here. Last night was Xtreme! Got home around 4 after going to fever club and bar 10, apparently, don't call it club 10 because they will hate you. But Fever Club. Awesome. Like the best place ever. All they play is 70's music. The kind of music that you play in a playlist, for like everyone to get pumped on, like all throwback like. But it never ends! We wanted to leave for like an hour but every song came on we were just like, maybe just one more song. That went on for like 10 more songs. Here's some images hopefully to stimulate your stimuli. Because now I am in the library where the internet is almost useable.

Hi world. Just got back from pumping iron at the local meat shed, and well I need some short shorts. JK, what is with the shorts. I dont get it, its like opposite of america. Instead of girls wearing the shortest shorts you can possibly wear, dudes do. And its like they compete for the shortest shorts. It is quite mind boggling. Anyway I have to go learn later, which is not fun, but its quite awesome, how theres no attendance policy here, and lectures are quite silly, and everything in my business classes is strait outta foundations of business, yet counts for 200 level business classes back at mikes, im pumped on that. Hopefully my second bout with economics goes better in the southern hemisphere then it does back at the mikes with herb kessel. anywho heres some images to stimulate your stimuli

So my B on the whole not blogging thing, I've been pretty busy I guess. I've been in the land entity known as New Zealand now for about two weeks. And well it sucks. No, jk lol, its the dopest, like hands down dopest dope i've ever smoked. Besides the whole learning thing I had to do this morning, I have been having nothing but fun. list of things Trev has done. in no particular order.

- scrumped
- rode mountain bikes on the sickest on Pen In Sulas next to sheep and other wildlife
- Went kayaking around a pretty dope shipwreck
- scrumped some more
- bought a car
- set up a bank account
- slept in a marae or which is the maori sacred community center
- Took part in an ancient war dance known as the haka
- scrumped again
- fed some ducks
- went to a real sick aviary with some gnarly parrots and such one was named sid, he thought he was a human

- Also en route to Wanaka made a lot of "nuts" jokes
- Went to Snow Park which was the most dope of dopeness, had a blast landed some manuves had a good day
- Went to a hilariously terrible "music" festival. I put music in quotes because even as a person who loves pop electronic music, namely the prior mentioned love of my life, Ke$ha, I even thought this "music" aka bass and random noises was just outright annoying.

- had/having the time of my life
