Ok so as you can see guys we done a 40m bloody bungeee!!! After getting off a 24 hour flight this was abit of a shock but i was soo excited and ready to give it a shot !!! I honestly have never eaten so much in the space of 24 hours on the plane i had at least ten meals in me and you can understand what the plane does to u .... haha my stomach was soo bloody hard ! anyway after battling with the pain of jetlag we were on the platform ready to jump... never been so scared in my life and i done it backwards... best buzz of my life... we all done a drifferent jump which made it allot more fun and interesting ! Oh just had a thought whilst writing this... i lost my passport... SHIT ! having to get everyone to search their bags dammit no luck yet wooops !!!! honestly i never lose anything i mean i always have my eyelash curlers to hand and now ive gone and bloody done this shit sorry for swearing !! oh and i apologise for the spelling!
Camping..... oh bloody camping... after being left practically shipwrecked with my bellongings in a black binliner... i threw myself off the back of this little boat in the freezing cold dying for a wee! We had to swim to the shore with the camp leader steve awaiting our arrival ! At this point still no bowel movement ... we were welcomed with some wood and a plastic sheet... we had to build our shelter from this ?! i was thinking crap but we made a very comfy house with some leaves as our matress haha i must say it beat my bed at home... not! Having made our home we were faced with the challenge of killing an eel for dinner... yuk i mean theses things stink ! we done it one by one killing them with a piece of wood then gutting them... very challenging but i thought the quiker i do it the less it will suffer... i didnt find this hard i just wanted to get it done... survival of the fittest ! After killing them we made them into little eel filletts ... and cooked them on a gas cooker... tasted like shit to be honest ... like eating pond water ! but me and emma decided to pour a load of honey on them to cover the taste... this made them worse lol ! The night was scary as we kept telling each other ghost stories.. and chris put the bloody machettie and hammer above my head so if anyone came we could defend ourselves... madman ! anyways i have so much more to tell but i have too go as we are about to eat more... lol talk to you soon lots of love Holly xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx0 Comments less than a minute

Kimberley Blog - Bungy Jump
Hellooo Everyone
Iv been here in New Zealand now for a few days and im loooving "nearly" lol every bit of this Extreme Adventure x x it was just after being here for a couple of hours, i was 40 meters high in the air watching my beloved x fellow travelers do the jump :s sooo i was the last one to jump and i really was getting freaked out when it was my turn, it was THE BAT jump decided....... so picture a bat hanging upside down holding himself with his feet, i was sooo scared clinging on to this pirate plank like thing 
it took me about 4 minuets to clime into position so when i was finally hanging over the edge head first looking down at the bloody 40m drop below, i screamed for my life before i was even released hahaha i really felt like it was over, well kind of hehe, arriving at the bottom shaken up from the fall i was wanting to cry for some weird reason hehehe i arrived back at the top and the only way i can explain the whole thing and what happen there was just STRANGE, AWKWARD and JUST NOT QUITE RIGHT....... sums me and the jump up really loool But Looking back now it was the first extreme sport iv ever done and now it will be the first of many, iv had a smell and now i want a taste....... hummm not sure if thats a normal saying lol its just how i feel :p i just cant wait to hear what Gap year has in store for us next x
Over and out for now, from the other side of the world x x x

am a cool going boy 23 year old am from the smiling face jobarteh_2005@yahoo.co.uk In reply to: "It's Saturday, so watch The Gap Year: GMT! You could win an iPod Nano..." by The Gap Year - Challenge New Zealand
I dont know where you have to comment for the socks competition but i think
they have taken 24 pair between them.

Reet then first off, big congratulations to the travelers on the trip, and from what I’ve read actually making it there.
I hope all of you make the most of the trip and don’t chicken out of anything. If any of you do I will personally hunt you down and give you a dead leg for possibly taking my place. And if you do get voted off don’t take it personally, it’s the nature of the game and you were all picked because you’re all top quality people.
Second off, I really want to sort a night out with the auditionees around London. Now since most of the auditionees aren’t showing up much anymore, I want to gauge how many people would be up for it. So befriend me, message me, comment under this post, basically contact me if you’re interested.
Friends and family of the travelers are welcome, as long as you have some dirt on them.
The Digital Studio guys are welcome too (if they can handle it)…
