Home yet again
by Jonas Ahmt on 25 July 2010, under New Zealand, USA
So I realize it has been a while since I last wrote a blog post. Unfortunately, I fear it will still be a little while longer before I actually manage to write the next proper blog post. I had planned to put at least one more up before I left New Zealand. This is what I managed to write the day before I left:
“I’ve soon been writing this blog for about a year. I still have no idea how many people actually read it. I have even less of an idea of how many people read and enjoy it. I think the style might have changed a bit from my first to my last post – I think I might have become better at mixing the boring text with exiting photos of me and the people I have been hiking with doing the haka. I don’t really know. I haven’t yet gone back and read what I wrote earlier. However, I guess it might be nice to have the possibility later on to go back to my blog and read what I actually experienced in New Zealand. I would assume it has been a good time – but I guess I will have no idea until I read the blog again.
I always wanted to be able to write short blog messages. I think people are “
Yup, I actually stopped in the middle of a sentence. Now you (and more importantly I) will never know what I think people are. Such a shame!
Anyway… the reason I’m writing this post is to assure you that I’m not entirely done with my blog, even though I have now left New Zealand and returned to Denmark. At least I still have some photos to put up and present (although most of them can already be seen on Facebook or Flickr). Right now I’m working on finishing my project, though. Since it usually takes me a while to sit down and write an actual blog post, that will have to wait. I can give a very short summary of what has happened since my last post, and then I might later return with some photos to show for it:
- Birthday celebrations (including my own Birthday, a bit surprising as I was born in October).
- Leaving NZ, going to the US.
- Buying an iPad (and how it nearly cost me my camera).
- My sister’s wedding (hooray!).
- Me, running around as a french fry (yup, that’s what that sentence is meant to say).
- Mixed randomness about America (and mostly the food habits) such as my amazement of Blue Cow Frozen Yogurt and my continued appreciation of the fact that The Cheesecake Factory exists.
- The final part of my project.
Aren’t you excited now? This post has certainly earned the tag Bad teaser.

I am a Canadian student who is going to New Zealand on exchange this coming January. I only found your blog sometime between this and your last post, but enjoyed reading about your adventures from the last year.
So now you know about at least one person who isn’t related to you and has read almost all of your posts (I’ll admit I skimmed the one about your thesis…).

I realize this reply comes fairly late – I never noticed anyone commented on this last post of mine. I’m glad if you found anything helpful in there; it means it hasn’t been a complete waste of time writing it all down. I hope you will have an excellent stay in NZ – and feel free to contact me if you have any questions!

There is no great genius without some touch of madness.
