Ke Li and I taking a photo with my cats... Aren't they cute? 

This is my other cat, Tiew Tiew or San San (direct translation: Thin Thin) as we used to call. It is the opposite of Pui Pui when we got it. It was all skin and bones but recently, it managed to get even with Pui Pui in weight. Amazing right?? Thanks to my mum who feeds the cats twice a day and also snacks in between. 

This was taken before I left Kuching... The girl is Ke Li, one of my good friends... She just adores my cat, Pui Pui (direct translation: Fat Fat) It weighs aroung 3 kgs and is still gaining weight. 

Two big kids fooling around in the kiddies park. 

I'm on top of the..................... bench... gotcha!!! I'm getting fat!!!!!!!!!!

The black and white swans among the ducks. 

The flowers are really beautiful, aren't they? 

Don't run away duck... I want to catch you and roast you... Come here duckies... Good duckies. 

This is part of the park. 

This is at Western Springs, the largest lake in Auckland (should be). It's very nice... 

Vincent's driving us CRAZY CRAZY CRAZY!!!!!

My cousin, Vincent is really driving all of us crazy... What did he do to make us so crazy?? His singing!! I don't really mind that, but if it is over and over all again, it really gets to you... He's really nuts about karaoke, which we pronounce as kara-okay,but which he pronounces as kara-okie... He;s now into this Taiwanese band, F.I.R., which I brought from Kuching... It's in a karaoke version. Ever since he's seen it... He has been singing it. Besides that, he has also been singing Jay Chou's "Qi Li Xiang" everyday. One funny moment is when he starts singing the song. It was around 12am when Melissa was getting ready for bed. Unfortunately I was already sleeping. She heard Vincent singing "Qi Li Xiang" very loudly. She thought that he was singing in the shower as it was really loud. She took a look at the bathroom (which was next to our room) but it was empty. She then noticed that he was in his room which was across our room, around 3 metres away. You can imagine how loud was he singing middle of the night. He would also suddenly sing out of nowhere. One moment he would be quiet, the next he would be siniging on top of his lungs. He's also something of a workacholic... Anything to do with earning money... He's the haappiest.For example, his sister, Melissa is now into arts and crafts things... What he told her was, "I'll give you 100 dollars for you to buy your supplies and you should give me back 300 dollars. " Look how interested is he in earning money?? He also liked the movie Ella Enchanted, the parts where Ella obeys every commands directed to her. To show how crazy he is about it, he starts calling Melissa and I "Ella" everytime he wants something done. This guy just laze aound at home, expecting everybody to serve him, which makes me nuts. Asking him to bring his cup to the sink would be like sheer torture for him... So what we do is to pretend not to hear him but his voice is really loud and he just won't give up calling us "ELLA!"

The landscape of Auckland... Isn't it picturesque? 

A scene we took before leaving the farm... 

A picture I took at the strawberry farms... These are some of the strawberries I picked... They were scrumptious!! 

That's the bride and groom... with the flower girl and page boy... Aren't they cute?? The guy and girl at the sides are my cousins, vincent and Melissa. 

A picture I took with my relatives before leaving the church... 

The page boy, Scot getting ready to walk the aisle... He's a bit nervous, getting some encouragement from my cousin, Melissa. 

The decorations inside the church before the wedding starts. I'm afraid I didn't took a better photo... but this is what it looks like. 

There was a wedding when we got to Auckland... It was my aunt's church member... This is a picture we all took before we left for the church 

I asked my cousin, Vincent to take some pictures when he went out to celebrate his friends' birthday. I wanted him to take some beautiful scenery but.... this is the only one he took and he said... "I took A photo for you!!" 

The picture my cousin took before I left Kuching... I'm so touched that some of my friends took their time to send me off... Thanks guys... 

Two weeks here...

Time really flies... I'm here in Auckland for almost two weeks already... I've kind of settled down here... It is also due to my cousins here... Thanks to them or I still be missing home... I do miss my parents... As an only child, surely I'm close to my parents even thought we do fight. I'm also quite happy that my parents gave their support through emails and also sms...

My 1st blog was a DISASTER with capital letters!!!!!

I always wanted to start blogging but there are things that stood in my way... First I didn't know how to start so I decided to ask my friend but then I remembered that heis at tuition... So I decided to do it myself... My cousin keeps a web blog so I used hers... It was smooth sailing from there til I found out that I didn't know how to upload the pictures... That was terrible... I also didn't know how to create a blog... Urgh... After I found out, I had no time or no computer to do it... That's why I ptocastinate til now... I started 3 times with no avail... Now I succeed... Hahaha... Soooooo glad... =)
