WannaBeAKiwi "Life is a garden...dig it"

Well its been a crazy couple days but I'm finally sitting at my gate ready to go!  I thought leaving would be hard but after UofM managed to lose to a AA school I'm glad to be going.  Check in was surprisingly easy; my bags are checked and boarding passes printed for the rest of my trip.  This should make the craziness that is LAX a bit easier.  My friend SPF was working my gate when I showed up and managed to upgrade me to First Class for my flight to LA (thanks SPF).  This time tomorrow I should be arriving in Christchurch, my new home for the next year.
