Beautiful Day

It's been too long since Auckland had good weather. So me and mag wasted no time and seized the day, last saturday.
We headed to Clevedon for Oysters! Very cheap only...2 fresh large dozen of oysters only for $22 bucks.

We weren't just gonna eat our oysters just like that. We tapao them to Mission Bay! We tapao some fish and chips to go with our oysters! YUM!! Those who have not tried them, please do..it is super yummy. I used to not like all these kinda stuff...

and when there is nice weather + nice view + you have a full stomach...what do you do?
TAKE LOTS OF PICTURES OF COURSE!
And then....we headed to Aotea Square to the "The Edge" to look at final year projects of AUT Graphic Design Students.

Pei Lyn's Work

Yean's Work
I'm always fascinated by graphic designers...they are so talented!! I wanna learn how to be as creative...too bad I can't draw for nuts and I suck at Illustrator and Photoshop.

Anyway that was like the perfect day for me...to top that, I got to play soccer after lunch and then headed to Ying Swan's house to watch World Netball Championships...which unfortunately New Zealand lost...but it was still a great day..thanks Swan for having us over! =)

Not So Secret Afterall..

I guess some of you or maybe most of you had already known or guessed it.

YES is the answer. I've got PR! I've just got the letter last Wednesday.(no fun lar you guys...so fast burst my bubble)

However, I've yet to receive the permit put onto my passport. Until that is in my passport, I'll officially say that I'm a "New Zealand Permanent Resident" and then you can congratulate me! =)

I'm really happy actually. Now I can enjoy some benefits of being a residence and start looking for better paying jobs.

But in the same time, I've got to stay two more years for now in order to gain an indefinite PR. That means, two more years away from my family. Don't get me wrong but I do want the PR but two more years away is pretty long. My dad is 65 now, my mom is 60 and both my aunts that live with us is 60+ as well. We always take things for granted. We assume that they will always be with us forever. Of course I would love that but in reality, they are not going to be by your side forever. This leaves me with a decision to make. But I will have to sort it out myself for now.

So that is why, I'll be heading home this xmas for a month to see me family. This time it's going to be a family focused holiday. Rather than the last one which I didn't spend much time with them. So that is something I am so F**King excited about!! and friends and food of course..hehe

I'm just such a blessed child I tell you. I'm so freaking lucky. It's been really great I tell you..

Loving Family + Overseas Education + Great Friends + Job + Lovely Girlfriend + Travel + PR + All the good things...It seems like I've won LOTTO's BIG WEDNESDAY! wooohoooooooooo...

Life couldn't be better.
