Hello again peeps. I've spent the last 2 months in Auckland working. It was an incredible experience - lots of long hours at work and lots learned - particularly enjoyed spending time getting to know my colleagues and having a bit of a laugh amidst the work. In fact I found that I actually love on-site work, much so because it's less stressful than the office and you get to goof around little bit. Haha..

Got to drive around a bit to see the places amidst the work.. I only had 7 days off in 2 mnths there but made the most of the days off to go and see a bit of the sights. went to rotorua after the first commissioning weekend. It was a nice touristy place with great scenery and a unique odor.
Went also to One Tree Hill. the famous hill U2 sang about in the song of the same name. Went to Bay of Plenty too which was great with all the dolphins and all. New Year's eve was great, we went to Monsoon Poon, a thai-indian restaurant for dinner, then to the casino, played some pool and watched fireworks from the skytower. After new year, work was a drag though coz I was working night shifts in the tunnel..interesting experience nevertheless.

auckland was such a refreshing experience.. but now I can't seem to get used to office work. oh well. one good thing was that I got to know more of the people in the company which is good coz in the office it's always just work work work. and more work.

I realized that in 2010 I've been in 3 different countries - Japan, Australia and NZ. missed out on doing a recap at the end of last year. It was such a dreamy year in fact. Hung out closely with a group of people I wouldn't expect to hang out closely with at the start of the year. Sometimes life throws you pleasant surprises I guess.

I'm kinda still tired from the trip as you can see from my unorganized thoughts. More later. Oh - new year resolution - mumble less, speak up more.
