I know how hard it is to get by as a student, especially these days with everything so expensive.
I want to encourage Jean & Cammeron to continue their study but with the pleasure of being able to see each other too!
I miss this girl. She brings me breakfast in bed.
Ok. these Guys need to be together!!
ah young love:) so long as the trip is after exams and assignments I think these are two very worthy young citizens and maybe knowing the trip is going to happen would let them concentrate on their study now. We all need to have some something good to dream about.
yeah! vote for Jean and Cam. I want Jean in Welly so I can finally meet Cams beautiful other half!! els x
suxs when he gets cranky,
sux when he gets angst as
Phone relations are just nowhere near as fun as the real thing....Hope you win :)
please !
Four reasons why I think you should please vote for me:
1)It is hard to hold someone's hand when the only thing connecting you is a telephone handset.
2) I was counting on winning powerball last night and buying my own plane but the balls didn't fall in my favour.
3) He's right. I probably should spend some time outside the library/ New Zealand Post.
4) I really do love him quite a lot.
....(I also said please!?)
Honestly New Zealand, I'd love to be able to spend more time with him and this would be such an amazing way to do it. Please please please vote for us, we would appreciate it so much.
Alternatively, cash donations can be made.
Feel free to email me on jean_butcher@hotmail.com for more information on this.
Thanks so much guys!!
Even a dollar is too much to provide our 3rd son Cam with a smile on his face ! Especially when looking like 007 :-)
Go for it
Jean Butcher is a funny one!
Ahh jean, where would be be without our burnies and lunch bags... Honestly??
Wish you all the best luck from Holland. Hope you will get the flight
Cheers Mo
heres my vote, all the best
Cam needs this. He is so loyal and devoted, and Jean makes me laugh without even being able to meet her, so she should be here making me laugh face to face.
Cam and Jean pleaseeee. She makes me laugh and I haven't even met her. That must count for something!
I do hope you win,
Nothing harder than being away from a loved one, im in the same boat as you guys, and it definatly has its hard times, when all you wanna do is be there.
GOOD LUCK!!!
Having witnessed this relationship from it's beginning I can't imagine two people who are more deserving of some extra time together. Particularly as Jean racked up a $1,500 phone bill last month before realising she wasn't actually on best mate! Good luck my little Jeanius!
good luck
Good Luck to you both, hope you get it :D
Hey you two - hope this comes thru for ya!
yay for cheap stuff

Goodluck, I know how hard the wgtn-chch long distance is! Cam i still maintain you should just move to chch, never mind your degree or anything! Goodluck guys, you certainly fly enough that I'm sure Air New Zealand owes you something.
He's my big brother and she's cool so good luck, you can send me some sour rainbow lollies as thanks.
xox
SUPERB. Spiffing idea. Give Jean bean the b-b-bounce only berocca can provide...when cams away. U both make me wanna shout, kick my heels up... Fx
Cameron has been seen peeling the labels off beer bottles, and we all know what that means...

GO CAM AND JEAN!
“Love is strange and mysterious.. Just like Jelly beans..”
Oh the fun of the long distance relationship... been there myself and I know it's costly!
All the best guys xx
I initially thought you were going to lose your man license by writing pretty words about your lady and then you go and shock me with your honest words of reality that we have all faced by having to say goodbye to those close to us, you get my vote bro, for keeping it real
Cameo you deserve this,and Jean you sound lovely too so im all for it,be together and be happy thats all you need :)- Tess
Cameo you deserve ths and Jean you sound lovely too, be together and be happy! :) - Tess

cam you are so great and Jean you sound very lovely. You two deserve to be together and be happy. Long distance longing is the worst. i hope you get it- love Tess
loud noises
Ok guys, am sitting opposite Jeanie in the library right now and take my word for it, she def looks as if she needs a trip away.. being the resident library geek on the 8th floor is undoubtedly a prestigious title, however, you must know that she is worthy of much more.. Everyone, vote for her, she is a fun-loving chicky who needs to go to the BEAUTIFUL city of Wellington and spend some quality time with her loverboy and most importantly meet his grandparents :) GO JEANIE, YOU CAN DO IT!love annabel xxxxxxxxxx
This makes me sick but I like you both.
Good Luck, hope you win
I know how hard it is, I'm in the same situation.
Good luck guys!
to some people long distance seems totally unlogical and they think theres always other people, but im in the same boat as you Jean and Cam and understand fully - and if you can work through this, nothing will come between you. all the best for the both of you. There's nothing better to see people putting their minds where their hearts are.
im in if if means we can still have a BT...
aw Jean!!!! good luck xoxo Alana :P
Good luck you two
You guys get my vote :-)
damn straight, lovin and learning more the merrier
oh god stop me from vomiting.
After spending 1 year in a distance relationship I know how it feels and how much you want to see each other. You got my vote!!!!
awww so sweet...good luck love birds, love candice x
awww so sweet...good luck love birds, love candice x
Jesse, I would hate to abolish the BT. That would be like not having christmas...
Or like not being able to get a $1 flight.
All three situations would be rats buzz so let's not let any of them happen.
Thanks so much for all the support guys, keep the votes coming!
Cam and ean deserve to win!
Jean! Random. Someone linked me here to vote for someone else but seeing as I actually know you, you get my vote. How cute.
We're gonna do it.....whoop whoop!
you guys are too cute. hope you get there babe you deserve it.! oxox

Good luck!
I do love this girl. very very much
Flying's the only answer to make us all happy.
Been there, done that, good luck winning the seat.

Can't wait to see you soon Cameron. Jean's going crazy about it.

I'd really love to see him.
Thanks so much to everyone who's voted... tell your friends. I promise it's a worthy cause!
