Busy busy busy.

Heyyo people, sorry for the lack of updates. have been really busy since my arrival in NZ.
A lot have been done since my last post like...
Getting a rental house,
Bought a car for 3500k NZD... 1995 Honda Odessey but still in very good condition. (It's a family car btw)
Got a SONY 40inch FULL HDTV
Got a Bunk bed to share with my younger brother since our rental house isn't really big
Went for Boxing day sale which is likely to be the biggest sale in NZ.
Got a fridge and freezer.
Took my Camera to repair but the Canon repair centre only starts work on 5th of January. And requires at least 10 turnover days.
Well actually there is still a few things but I somehow forgot. Crapp.

Hmm remember in some post I said in NZ you can take your driver's license after your 16th birthday?
Well turns out I was wrong. You can actually take ur driver's license RIGHT AFTER your 15th birthday.
Hopefully I can take my license next wednesday.. that is if I finish studying by then.

On another note, school starts beginning of February. You might be thinking "Hey! that's unfair"
But their holidays here only starts around 10 of december.
School time in Malaysia : 7.25 a.m - 1.05 p.m
School time in NZ : 8.30 a.m (hey! that's unfair) - 3.30 p.m (okay that's more like it)
So yeah the total school time in NZ is longer than in Malaysia.

Going to move in to the new rental house tomorrow. and hopefully I shall update you people again.
Will try to post up pictures soon.

Oh and also. This post is kinda different from other post if you notice.
If your observation is good enough then you'll be able to spot the difference.
Just state the difference in my Chatbox.
hahahaha.. just a little thing to test your eyes and brain.


Till then. byee
*peace*

7 Things.

7 Things that I like about NewZealand.
1. During summer, the sky gets dark latest at 9.30PM
2. They have really cheap cars. You can buy a car that cost RM100k
for RM20k here in New Zealand.
3. The air is very fresh here, very unpolluted.
4. Just by working at the shopping mall like Giant or Tesco as a cashier, you can earn around
10NZD per hour which is like RM20. (But they don't have giant of tesco, I meant similiar kind of shopping mall.)
5. People here are very friendly.
6. You can get very cheap stuff off the internet. They have their own website
called trademe.co.nz which only based on NZ.
7. Their houses are freaking beautiful.Unlike Malaysia,here each has their very own design and most of them are very spacious
7 Things I dislike about NewZealand.
1. They have a very small variety of food.
2. It's cold most of the time which is not really suitable for me.
3. The things they sell here (not the internet ones) are expensive because
their labour is very expensive.
4. The sky gets dark at around 5 something PM during winter.
5. Their houses are expensive if u convert the amount of money back to Malaysia Ringgit.
Its hard not too because eventually you will compare.
6. They don't have unlimited internet connection. They used to have but they
stopped that service. And now to actually pay for internet its expensive.
7. I can't see my friends back in Malaysia which is the thing I hate the most.
Did this post to let you people roughly know how's life in NewZealand.
And because I'm really bored.
Checked out a few car yards yesterday to check out the
pricing for some cars like
the Nissan Maxima(AKA sylphy in Malaysia) and the 2nd latest model of
Toyota Camry(AKA Camry) in Malaysia. haha
Went to check out some houses today near the school zone. Parents didn't like any of them.
Crap.
Going to check out the car auction tomorrow.
According to my dad. The auction will have roughly 100-200 cars displaying in this place.
And if you go there like an hour before the auction starts u can just take any car
that you like to go test drive around. Because all the cars have their keys
inside the car.
Yes and no one will want or try to steal those cars because people in New Zealand are very honest people.. haha
Well I think thats all for this time. Sorry for the boring post and lousy spacing once again.
Will try and fix it.
Byee
*peace*

Back To Where I Came From.

Arrived in NZ yesterday night after two weeks of holiday in Australia.
Didn't take many photos because my kit lens decided to fail me last minute,
and I needed the wide angle to take most of the nice photos.
It's sad I know.
Well started my Australia holiday two weeks ago in Melbourne. then slowly drove to Sydney
which is almost 1100km away... took us 3 days.
Nothing much to blog about. I'll try to search for pictures which are worth your time then after I upload them then I'll post it up.
One thing I'm excited is.. Hopefully I'll take my license soon. haha
Parents wants me and my bro to take our license before school starts.
Going to check out the houses near my future school tomorrow.
Because in order to study in that school have to live in the zone and stuff like that.
Should update you all again soon...hopefully..haha
Miss you people who are back in Malaysia.
Byee..for now.
*peace*
sorry for the lousy spacing.
Don't know whats wrong with blogspot.
or is it just my dad's laptop

Time really flies

Hello
Well finally the day is here,
Just a few months ago I was telling everyone
"Hey I'm leaving in 3 months time"
and now, it's "hey I'm leaving tomorrow"
It's really really sad actually, I never thought I would be sad over
this kind of thing
but I guess I was wrong.
Just a couple of hours ago I was just looking at my empty house,
wondering how much will I miss the place I have lived in for the past 11 years.
also wondering how much more will I miss.
But like I said, too those who will miss me, I'll be back so don't worry,
and to those who hates me, I'll be back to so don't worry too. haha
Leaving in another 10 hours...or 9.
well I thought of so much to write about just now but when I sat in front of the laptop Ijust ran out of ideas.
Anyway, got to go sleep now, tiring day...tiring tiring day. Fillingup a 20 foot container isn't as easy as it looks.
I'll try to update when i get to Melbourne.
For now, I just wanna sleep.
bye, no more mood edi.
no *peace* for you all today.
Sad and depress.

It's Over!

Finally the exams are over.
Phew.

Well remember in my last post
I said I am leaving to somewhere someplace far far away.
So to those who are still unaware where the hell am I going..
Well I'm migrating to New Zealand aka NZ aka land of sheeps.
A lot people ask how do I feel about this whole migrating thing..
Well since I was young I always wanted to go study there.Don't ask why
But now I kinda have this mixed feeling of sad and happy and excited etc.
Come to think of it it's kinda depressing that I actually need to let go of everything here
friends, family, school, the food...
but it's kind of a good thing too since well...er...
never mind I shall not say,
I shall not talk about how sucky the Malaysian school system is,
I shall not talk about how polluted the Malaysian air is,
I shall not talk about the racism problems here.
I shall just not talk about it >.<>
I'm leaving on the 24th of November 2008!
It gets kinda irritating and annoying when the same person keeps on asking you
the same question.
Will I ever come back?
Hopefully next year end for prom. Hopefully.
My bro and I actually counted that day if we were to come back next year end.
we would have to work for........
near 200 hours
IF we get 12NZD per hour, which is I think the min wage.
IF the air ticket back to Malaysia at that time is 1600NZD.
so yeah 1600 x 2.something adds up to around rm3500 to rm4000.
well just do the math alright.
yeah we actually have to work and earn our own money if we wanna come back and visit our friends.. big sacrifice right! I know... haha

But all in all, the thing that I will miss the most is probably, I mean surely my friends.
So I would like to thank all my friends,
the 4 Ixorians,
the Scouts,
the Prefects,
and others.
for making the 4 years of my high school life so interesting. haha


Okay first time I'm typing such a long post it's probably so boring
your eyeballs are going to fall out anytime soon.
So I'm gonna end this post here and yeah.

Now I shall go find some pictures to neutralize the boredness
that you have just experienced for the last 10 minutes or so.


Typical brother-brother picture.

Full moon.

Dragon Fruit Flower.


Dragon Fruit
Water droplets.


Well just some random photos that I took when
I went to my uncle's dragon fruit farm back in Pahang.
Enjoy^^



*peace*
