da happz

ok i've been told that tomorrow will be when ppl go on new runs.... dunno if that applies to me but alot has been sed in the last week about this. now origionally i was gonna go on a run next door to where i am in da depot... that would mean either 41 or 55. But now it looks like i'm gonna be on 49. 49 is pigeon mountain rd etc.... next door to 55 on the outside. It's also next door to my first run which was 42. infact this run used to be part of 42 when 42 was a BEHEMOTH. part of 42 broke away to become 49... the rest is the 42 that i came to know for 8 months. 49 is a very small run in terms of delivery points. its about 750. for a comparison 42 had 850, 23 had 920 and the current run i'm on has 970. 31 is the biggest run with 1111 delivery points, but its dead flat and being in edgewater (poorer than bucklands beach) the mail density is less and less magazines than 54.... still i've been told that even on a light mail day this run takes ages due to the ...

August allways feels like summer hahaha. The sun suddenly gets stronger, everyone strips off and you see white arms and legs reflecting the sun hahahahaha... i kid you not thats exactly what happens. NZ in August gets some pretty good heat goin as the eastern parts get da NW wind that sends da temp over 20 degrees quite often. I too are making the most of the sunny days soaking up as much of the UV as i can.... not to get a tan but more for vitamin D. i'm using my time delivering the mail to get my UV quota cos once home i'm covering up... this will stop me from getting fried especially once summer arrives. Had a nice thunderstorm last nite which was brilliant. Work has been interesting..... at times i feel like i'm being conspired against... reminds me of reality shows... you don't have to be crap to get eliminated, you just have to be the crappiest of the bunch... Apprentice sorta comes into play. Since i started a year ago i allways wanted to train a postie. ...

Lots of work, kiting, busy busy busy. doin pilates at da gym, lots of kiting and in the process of losing lots of weight for da summer. i've been bulkin up over da winter but with my job it should be easy to shed da winter coat so long as i resist da urge to eat da munchies lol... allways da hard bit cos i love my food lol.... junk food or healthy food... down da hatch it does lol. still on da big eastern beach run (54) but rumours of us being shifted around again in september... been told it'll be clockwise or anti clockwise which for me means either 41 (pak plaza area) or 55 (bucklands beach area not on peninsula). however with Andrea established on run 55 and it also being a "cutup" run (ie when we are understaffed we all do that run ontop of our runs) there is also the chance of me doing the western side of the peninsula (run 53). I currently do the eastern side. like 54, 53 can also get heavy mail being a rich area but it is smaller than 54 so is usually not...

Dunno what i've got. A cold, flu... maybe even da swine flu. Feels a bit too fluey to be a cold although no real fever as such... but slight aches. Pretty knackered and snot production in full swing lol. as i never go to doctor for things like this i'll never ever know what i really had so no "fuk yeah boi i had da piggy germs hehe" from me. best remedy for stuff like this i've found is rest rest and more rest, lots of water and food. I've found i can "ride da germs" in order to lose weight... but of course to do that the food i eat has to be healthy lol. so yea i'm just chillin and getting better... well tryin to lol

Last month of winter but allways feels like spring for some reason. Spring of course for me is the windy season in Auckland which of course means kitesurfing. In work news i've been told that in a months time i'll be changing runs... this could mean that i finish earlier as the run i'm currently on is huge. I'm still focussing on admin stuff at home (as opposed to kitesurfing and socialising which i tend to do more in spring (kitesurfing) and summer (social outings). Then again i've been going out lots over the last couple of months but just relaxing at da mo. Been kiting quite a bit too. If its gr8 conditions close to home then i'm kiting... no matter what time of year.... but better conditions more likely in spring and autumn.
