Christchurch's Quake - 5 Years Today

Five years ago, On the 22nd of February 2010 I was on the corner of Colombo and Hereford St in Christchurch, on the phone to my friend who I was meeting when in the matter of minutes things changed forever...

That event was the second Christchurch Earthquake. after all the aftershocks we had since the first quake in September the year previous, we all hoped that the shakes would stopped, but instead we got one that did way more damage and we lost many lives.

It was the day for us that were there will never forget, each person will remember exactly were they were and will always tell there story. It will be the one of the few events that will shape Christchurch and our country in a different way forever.

After that quake I moved to Auckland, but I am back to see family, and it coincided with the fifth anniversary of the quake, it made me feel more connected to Christchurch that I ever was and I am glad as Christchurch will always be my home and have a place in my heart.

And to Christchurch: WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER AND WE WILL NEVER FORGET!

The Complete Stories of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

It is no wonder this book is considered a classic, the way he writes is simply superb and the way he creates the relationship between John and Sherlock, they are the missing parts if each other and they both fill the void within each other. This is a true platonic friendship

The stories will always stand the test of time as they already proven to do.

Christchurch Holiday

While I am writing this, I am checked in and so has my luggage and am now waiting near my boarding gate, the issue is I am way to early.

I am such a nervous wreck when it comes to flying, and I am not to sure why. Buses and trains are fine, but flying makes my heart race and mind  wander, even though I know it'll be fine.

But despite that I am excited about my trip back home to see family and friends. Here's to Christchurch!!
