I'm Back!
Hello, everybody! I am back from my trip to Paihia. It was a fun trip, albeit a night of fighting and tiredness. Pictures will be posted up later, when I actually load the photos into the computer. Hehe.
The best part was the trip to Cape Reinga (will explain later), and the bonding between friends. In such a trip, there is no denying that you'll get to know your friends better. I found out about Jackie's family situation, Colin's admirable qualities, and Adrian's ever-growing weirdness.
Turns out only the 4 of us went for the trip... but it was a good thing. More than 4 people, and it wouldn't be as fun.
Since coming back on Monday evening, life has been slightly hectic. Or at least, that's how it feels to me. I'm still in holiday mode, I guess. After 4 days and 3 nights of beachside life, I'm almost intimidated by the city that is Auckland.
Tuesday, I went out with Jackie to uni to buy textbooks, have lunch, and stopped by Kathmandu (Jackie's workplace). I came home, check for updates on my friends' blogs, only to find one is feeling depressed. Chi Yee, I hope you're better now!!
Today (Wednesday), went out to uni again with my sis, but to settle some other stuff.. BNZ, locker hire, AUSA membership. Then, I went for a haircut. I am pleased to say I am definitely happy with my new hairstyle. (Will post up a pic later) The hairdresser was a bit reluctant to cut my hair at first, saying the hairstyle I wanted was too short. He then showed me a hairstyles magazine, and we both agreed on a particular hairstyle. It took him about 40 minutes, which is double the time he usually takes.. but I'm not complaining. Then, sis and I went home, took a rest, and went out again. For ice-skating. It's very paiseh to say this, but I suck at ice-skating! Most people didn't know how to skate at first, but picked it up quickly. Me? Let's just say by the time I mastered the art of not falling, it was 2 hours later. Haha. Oh well, it was fun.
So here ends my return-back-to-Auckland blog post. You're perfectly welcome to say you miss me in my comments box or CBox. ;P
