got up quite late today. around 8 plus. missing everyone back there already.. Ps David Yan was really nice to fetch us to and from his church, as well as to bring us on a short drive round the city as we won't have time to tour round Auckland cos we'll be leaving here tmr morning for rotorua. anw. ps david drove us to church in the morning. had lunch there. ps david drove us back. stoned in our room till say5, cooked the frozen pizza thingy (dinner), ate, ps david picked us up at 6 for bible study in church, the weather was slightly colder as compared to yesterday. cos it rained last night i think. this morning was ard 15degrees i think. afternoon was not so cold but windier and sunnier. so it;s like cold but hot. (the sun is really burning!) ps david drove us up to one tree hill. there's like zero trees there. that ONE tree got cut down some 10 years back i think. anyway. it was really windy there! i was afraid my sister would fly away or something. serious. like in the car it's super hot and stuffy COS APPARENTLY OVER HERE IN CARS THE DON'T TURN ON AIRCONS. so anw. got out, then VOOMP. the gust of wind just hit us. like my face was all numb. anw. got back into the car. nice and warm:D after bible study in the evening it was drizzling a little. but then it stopped when everyone was abt to go home, thank God. nice cool weather, but still quite windy. attire for the day was black tee plus skirt. and jacket. perfect:D oh yar we actually went up mt eden but some weird protester were protesting against so many tour buses going up or something. they say it kills the nature. which i kinda agree on. so we couldn't get up. even though we were in a car. some wildlife conservationalist i suppose. or something of the sort. there are many many chinese plus asains here! i think like even more that new zealanders. like even the church was 99% asians. at the supermarket also. and on the streets it's more likely that you see an asian that a westerner. i think they're mostly students or something. oh yar. our toilet somehow had no light suddenly today. so we had to do everything in darkness. so we brought a torch inside. so it was somehow freaky. okay. wadever. christmas lights here are not up yet. unlike s'pore. where the lights were up 1 month ago already: everyone's like packing up our stuff already. cos as i mentioned earlier we're leaving for rotorua tmr early morning. most indoor places have no air-cons, but only heaters. so it's like super hot and stuffy inside. off to pack!:D
