Hello people people!

Today we met the famous Zoe Bell from the movie Death Proof and she is playing herself as a stuntgirl (yes she's a stuntgirl in real life to). We arranged a meeting at the hotel. Zoe Bell has been in various movies and worked with Quentin since Kill Bill Vol.1 and 2 as a stuntgirl and a stunt cordinator. We decided to leave the hotel and went to a cafeteria that was called....Oh! I forgot the name, but anyway we sat down and had a jolly good time. I decided to ask Zoe Bell about the sports (becuase she is closest to sports becuase of her stunts) and she stated: "Early sports played in New Zealand were cricket, bowls, hockey and lawn tennis, while horse racing and fishing were also popular". I asked about rugby and she continued: "The first rugby fotball game was played in 1870 and successful tours by the Unoffical and official national teams to Australia and the United Kingdom played a role in forging New Zealand's national identity". After her little information about the sports I asked her about the country's military defence.

In many countries they have a  Defence Force. The New Zealand national defence force are not into direct attacks.  New Zealand was involved in couple of wars such as the naval Battle of the River Plate and the Battle of Britain air campaign.In World War II, the United States stationed 400,000 American military personnel in New Zealand. New Zealand also was foughted  in the Second Boer War, and the Afghanistan War for global peacekeeping missions, such as those in Cyprus, Somalia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Sinai, Angola, Cambodia, the Iran/Iraq border, Bougainville, East Timor, and the Solomon Islands.

We decided to stop right there and leave the place becuase it was getting late, however tomorrow i'm going to tell you guys all about Zoe Bell's work

Stay Tuned .....biatches!

Today we went outside to find a place for a nice meal and some for chit chat of course. We passed lots of shops and finally we found this nice restaurant called Covo Restaurant Parnell. It was a good thing we choose this place because Natalie is vegetarian and they have all sorts of vegetarian food....with whine!. Anyway we sat down and had our order placed and Natalie didn't study so much about the history of New Zealand, so I explained it. Apparently In AD 1250-1300 the first known settlers were Eastern Polynesians that arrived with canoe, however some researchers claim that either they died out or left the islands. And then the food came but Natalie wanted to hear more of the history so i continued. After that the Europeans came, the first Europeans that is known today were the Dutch, the explorer Abel Janszoon Tasman and his crew in 1642. There were people before them that were called Maori. When Abel and his crew arrived to New Zealand the Maori people killed four of his crew and they left the island. In 1768 a British explorer named James Cook went on a voyage to New Zealand with his men. They reached New Zealand in 1769 and he almost mapped the entire coastline. Soon after this New Zealand was visited by numerous Europeans and North Americans. The Europeans traded food and goods for the Maori. Christian missionaries settles to New Zealand and converted most of the Maori population in the early 19th century. A early government was developing under British rule, New Zealand was a part of New South Wales but became later a separated crown colony which means this is a type of administration of the British Empire. Okiato was selected as the first capital but then one year later they changed the capital to Auckland in 1841. The Maori became very independent and wealthy in this period and the number of immigrants increased. This led to a conflict between the British and the Maori, the conflict was later named for New Zealand Land Wars during 1860s and 1870s which resulted a loss for the Maori. New Zealand declared itself within the British Empire in 1907 and the country later adopted the Statue Of Minister, and this resulted that New Zealand was making a commonwealth realm. In 1890 the economy was growing because of the refrigerated meat that they exported to Britain, allowing them to trade and develop a strong basis for economic growth. New Zealand was involved in several wars such as the Boer War, WW1 and WW2. The economy later got bad because of the Great Depression of the 1930s. The depression led to a election of the first Labor Government which means that they established a welfare state and a protectionist economy. After the war the country began to have a social problem with the Maori because they were forced to leave their traditional rural life and move to the cities in search of work. The Maori made a protest movement which criticized Euro centrism and worked for greater recognition of Māori culture and the Treaty of Waitangi, which they felt had not been fully honored. After my explanation about the history of New Zealand, Natalie had full knowledge about New Zealand and the Maori.

Tomorrow we're going to meet Zoe Bell....Yes the Zoe Bell from Quentin Tarantino’s blockbuster movie "Death Proof"....stay tuned for more

Me and Ramin were supposed to go to New York and make a report about USA. However when we arrived at JFK international airport we had some trouble. I went through customs just fine, Ramin on the other hand was stopped and taken away to a small interrogation room. While he was away I had to spend several hours waiting at the airport. It felt a little like the movie The Terminal except I had money and I wasn´t forced to eat crackers with mustard and ketchup. Since I had the funds for our trip I went shoe shopping while Ramin was being interrogated. From what he told me later when we were reunited, I had a much nicer time than he had. I don´t have the details about what happened in that interrogation room, but when I saw Ramin again his eyes where far away and he had developed a nervous tic, flinching at every sound. I was a little concerned, but since I had nice new shoes I was still happy, that was until I heard that Ramin had managed to get him self deported. Apparently the US government suspected him of being a terroroist, and had therefore decided to ship him of to New Zealand. I was a little ticked of but accepted my fate, I would be reporting from New Zealand instead of America. 

Two guards took me to a room and started the interrogation. First I was very calm about it and answered their questions, but then the tables turned. They started to beat me and screaming, they asked about my origin and my religion and personal thoughts about their country. I stopped answering and ignored them. The first guard claimed that he had invented a machine that could find ....Terroroists? And put me in jail, I started to laugh for myself, and then it started to get creapy...like really really creapy. He brought a machine that was very huge like old computer with a mask ....it looked like a mask that Doctors put patients to sleep.

I struggled but in the end I blacked out. When I woke up the guards told me that I was free and they didn't find any Terrorists in me, I find this procedure very unecessary. The second guard was also very creapy becuase he wanted to sniff my socks after explosives? This is very fucked up when I read this. After 1 hour they had to let me go, I was petrified and wanted to leave the airport.

And so we did....
