the land of the kiwis

Hey all,
I am finally in Christchurch after umm lets see...30 something hours on a plane. thats karazy man. i decided like halfway to christchurch from singapore...actualyl wehn we were right over top of australia and i saw land and i thought it was new zealand....but it wasn't. anyways i decded that i no longer wanted to travel and that i was super ready to go home. but ya obviously i havent turned around and come back yet.
So Tuesday night around 11pm, i went to my dads house so that he could drive me to the airport. well after a night of no sleep, i got ot the airport at about 3:30am. my friend valli had saiud that she might meet me at the airport, and at first i was like whatever, but then i was like ahhh i ened someone with me. i felt so incredibly alone. but ya she came, and i was super dooper thank ful for that. anyways ya flight from Edmonton to Vancouver was basically very uneventful. got to vancouver adn ya had to walk across the whole airport to go to departures.. .. i thought the walk was long...until i got to LA. ya that was so far. and it was so hot. and ya i pretty much did not enjoy LA at all. but ya i;m not bitter:)
but my bitterness was made up for becuz i got to travel with singapore airlines. yep they were super awesome. they made my traveling experience all the more pleasurable. we had like good airplane food (weird but true) and like they would hand out like hot clothes to wipe your face with and such. ya it was pretty cool. and so like half way thru the flight, i had fallen asleep before take off...haha ya i was tired and pretty used to flying by then. well they were like we will be in Toyko in about so and so minutes.
i was like what the? i thought i was flying to singapore. well people ... meaning my travel agent neglected to tell me that ya there was a stop over in toyko but i was getting back on teh same plane. so i sitll had to like walk across the whole airport...well not that far but ya.,
anyways ya so finally 6and a 1/2 hours later i made it to singapore. some how fopund the hotel counter and got shipping to a hotel. they sweetest hotel ever .... i could have never afforded to stay there if the airline hadnt of paid for it. it was sweet.
anyways got to bed around 4 am. then some guy in the hotel called at 8 am and i couldnt sleep any longer. i walked to a near by mall...risking my life each time cuz ya they drive on the opposite side of the road as we do and it gets me EVERY time. anyways ya the mall was like weird, not what i had expected, so modern, so new, so much nicer than our malls...so much more expensive too i'd say.
anyways ya the tour was pretty cool. say some temples, mosques, almost got left behind at one. its funny how pepole think that you are a rich tourist cuz your white. and so they tried to sucker me into a whole bunch of htings.
but hey some of oyu may have seen the chinese purse that i had bought on boxing day in west ed mall, ya i found the exact same purses for like $5...singapore money , which would be like less than 5$ canadian.
anyways i am in christchurch now. im not sure how its going. i dont know what to think yety. so i will update you on that later.
