Hello North Dakota: Going solo
http://hellonorthdakota.blogspot.com/2009/07/going-solo.html
Sunday, 12 July 2009. Riding 4-wheeler the day before we left for Minot. Being in a different country and living within a different culture is strange enough. But to then suddenly be left alone, with a car that you're supposed to drive on a side of the road you're unfamiliar with. Well, it's a shock to the body, for me at least.

Hello North Dakota: Routine and home comforts..
http://hellonorthdakota.blogspot.com/2009/08/routine-and-home-comforts.html
Saturday, 8 August 2009. Routine and home comforts. I feel like i've been in a time-warp. Weeks have flown by, with so much happening in-between. Firstly, we finally moved into our apartment (pictures to follow). The exterior is nothing to dance about but the inside is nice. We have a spacious, wooden floored living room and plenty of closet space (Whitney needs it! Whitney cried, as another train rode by, honking it's horn every few seconds. Work has been enjoyable thus far. Being a waiter, with an ...

Hello North Dakota: Tick-tock
http://hellonorthdakota.blogspot.com/2009/10/tick-tock.html
Monday, 5 October 2009. I can't imagine returning to England in three weeks. And if there was ever an understatement, that was it. I literally cannot even fathom the idea. Firstly, there are many things I look forward to being reunited with: my parents, friends, the city of Sheffield, and my beloved football team to name but a few. However, there's a bigger reason for me wanting to stay. The same reason I came here: Whitney Jean Hay. I'll still stop by and say "hi" a few more times. Okay, enough 'boo-hoo...

Hello North Dakota: The pieces all fit together, but..
http://hellonorthdakota.blogspot.com/2009/07/pieces-all-fit-together-but.html
Wednesday, 15 July 2009. The pieces all fit together, but. I now have a job, which I start tomorrow. So if anyone wishes to come over to North Dakota for some fine Italian food, I'll be more than happy to be your waiter.* The staff seem nice and the manageress was also very friendly, so touch-wood I'll enjoy my time at 'Michael's restaurant'. Before I left England I lost count of the number of times someone would say, "I bet you aren't going to come back, are you? To which I had to constantly reply, "I h...

Hello North Dakota: My final post (for now)
http://hellonorthdakota.blogspot.com/2009/11/my-final-post-for-now.html
Sunday, 29 November 2009. My final post (for now). The view from my window at Whitney's Mum's house. I’ve been in England for three-and-a-half weeks, yet it feels like I still haven’t arrived. So since arriving back in England I’ve done nothing but rest, watch junk on tv, and re-discover Super Mario - it’s like I never left university. The exciting news is that Whitney will be on this side of the pond from December 26 to January 9. My priority is to feel well for when she arrives, and also have answe...

Hello North Dakota: September 2009
http://hellonorthdakota.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, 13 September 2009. Last Monday was labor day, a holiday dedicated to the working in which they are encouraged to take a day off. It was therefore ironic to discover that some people I knew were being paid double time to show up, giving great incentive to work on a day which encourages the exact opposite.

Hello North Dakota: October 2009
http://hellonorthdakota.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, 15 October 2009. Poor Whitney. She’s currently working two jobs, of which she dedicates approximately fifty hours a week to, and then she has to come home to a boyfriend who could easily gain admission to a house for the ‘mentally unstable’ right now. On the surface, many would be envious of my lifestyle. I still have no answers to any questions, and I’m even having trouble remembering what the questions were in the first place. Money is slowly disappearing, and the friendly smile I used to gai...

Hello North Dakota: June 2009
http://hellonorthdakota.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Monday, 29 June 2009. I've been here for three full days now, and i've got to say: it's a different world out here! We arrived at Whit's house, which again is surrounded by beautiful scenic greenery, and not a lot else. I met the parents; I met the pets (a dog named Kobe, two cats, and four horses). All are whom are very nice. That night we chilled out and watched a film; I wasn't awake enough to do much else! I should also mention the weather: beautiful! Stay tuned for more!
