Mt. Somers & Kingswood

Last weekend headed off to Mt. Somers for the weekend. It’s a 2 hour walk in to the crag (nice DOC hut at the base of the crag), but excellent climbing rewards the walkers.

Then today I headed out to meet Kris from Kingswood Skis who are sponsoring snowpool. It’s really impressive the company they have been able to make within 2 years. I loved their robot too..

What else.. well.. been having a pretty difficult time of late to be honest. I have been feeling quite down – I now have an idea of what depression is like. And to be honest it sucks! Little energy, find it really difficult to make decisions, worry, anxiety.. tis terrible stuff really. While I still believe the basic idea behind Vipassana is a good one, the effects for me have been less than positive (at least at the moment). I’m sure things will (they are) get better – just at the moment life could be a little easier.

So there you go – life isn’t always perfecto for me – even though one does ones best to make it look like that with the sneaky idea of getting all the right ppl to move out to NZ so that I’ll have more friends to play with out here :) It’s at times like these that being far from family sucks. Still, I suppose whatever doesn’t kill you will only make you stronger, and if that’s true I should come out of this super strong!
