Too lazy to write tonight much....a picture speaks a thousand words ;P
Our dorm room at Rainbow star

Alpacas farm near the homestay and its my first time seeing how an alpacas looks like
A day where we walked under the rain for few kilometers hunting for jobs
The owner of this motel must be a big lover of Heineken beer!
Flowers flowers flowers bla bla bla

The Broken Pieces...Christchurch
Our first homestay when we arrived at Chc,
Living room of our homestay at Rainbow Star 十里香
The star gazing hut where you can see tones of stars in the sky at night. The night sky in this piece of land is just way too beautiful. We didn't stay in this one though.
Heading towards to main road from our homestay
Thinking of hitch hiking but we ended up taking a bus to get our stuff done
Cross sign along the road where we waited for the bus, not sure whether its a random cemetery sign though
On the Metro bus to the city center from Riccartion where we were staying at
The power of 6.3 magnitude earthquake on 22nd Feb 2011 in Christchurch
Free bricks sign
Broken houses are still under construction.
We saw some flowers at a damaged house site and there were notes written there, I didn't take a photo of it but its something like ' mummy....we will miss you'
Is was so sad to see that.
One of the road along Christchurch city center. Some parts were closed for re-construction work and there weren't a lot of people on a weekday afternoon.
According to one of my friend, the city center will be open on March next year.

Havelock, NZ
Goodnews!!
We sort of got a job =D
Were supposed to rush back to Blenheim from Nelson yesterday, half way through we stopped by at the petrol station of Havelock for a toilet break.

Will be having the medical test and thursday and if everything goes fine we'll start work on monday, working on night shift 4.30pm-2am.
I can't wait and a lil nervous.

1st Week in NZ
Hello all,
It's my 8th day in NZ. Getting used to the life in NZ though the weather is still really cold now.
Been travelling a few places around South Island.
Chrischurch -> Blenheim -> Motueka -> Nelson and then we are heading back to Blenheim to continue to hunt for jobs.
Great eye opener and first time leaving off my comfort zone (home).
Learning to be independent and at the same time experiencing something different.
Meet lots of Malaysians here.
Thankgod that we managed to get a FREE car (subaru legacy) from Chris' friend and now travelling around is much much easier.
Before that we've walked under the rain and cold for few kilometers to ask for jobs in the vineyard.
Oh gosh hopefully by my next update i'd secured a job.
Cheers,
Rain

1st Day in Christchurch, NZ
After 11 hours of flight and we're finally here.
Staying at Rainbow Star which the owner is actually asian.
At the hostel living room now while the rest of the people are all asleep.
Jet lag sucks. 10.09pm Malaysian time and 2am NZ time.
I'm wide awake.
Excited for tomorrow yet a little blur about directions and all that.
Trying to adapt to life here.
12 degree celcius.
Ciao!

Hello all,
Am finally back from Macau/Hong Kong trip today.
First time going for a trip overseas on our own. It was a really great and eye opener experience.
I'm glad that i managed to bring the parents around and its actually not that scary. One thing you gotta learn is to be thick skin and dare to go up to the locals to ask when you need help.
I walked so much till my legs gone totally numb. I swear i've never walked that much eversince i was born. Good training for the legs and preparation for the coming trip.
3 more days till NZWH. Looking forward to explore the other side of the world yet a little heavy hearted to leave home.

02.03 am
Here goes another weekend.
Time is ticking away so fast.
Almost broke down in tears while driving back home tonight.
It's just one of the night that you feel like you've missed out so many things.
When the night creeps it, you feel insecure.
Memories. flashed back......i saw the shadow of myself.
Time passed but i am still staying at the very same starting point.
Fears.
Pang of nostalgic feeling.
Tonight i just want to hug myself to sleep.

Sabah Trip 1 *Sunset
I went to Sabah few weeks back with the family for 4 days 3 nights.
Sabah is so beautiful.....i can't wait to pay another visit to this place, am definitely gonna stay longer there cuz 4d3n is just not enough to explore the land !
Thinking of Tawau and some island on the next visit probably Sipadan island to get da freaking DIVING LICENSE!
View from the air
Hello sabah!
We stayed at Promenade Hotel. Didn't take any pictures because i think the hotel decor and everything is just so so...nothing much to mention about.
So after we checked in, we went to Shang Ri La Resort & Spa to catch the sunset there.
The resort is so beautiful! One night there cost around RM900 or more.
Imma earn more money and treat the family to stay there next time =)
At the lounge which is the perfect place to watch the sunset.
Super windy evening
The long awaited!
Nice place for couples on honeymoon ;)
After the sunset...the perfect dark blue sky
Dining area
A set of Gamelan at the resort lobby
