1st week in Wellington

Wellington is kinda boring city... the shops close at 5.30pm and soon after that, all streets will be very quite. I couldnt get use to it as yet...

Basically the whole week is Orientation week... and I got to know Anisa thru this International/Exchange student Orientation thingy. Anisa is from SMU here for exchange too, and she stays in Stafford House... the place where Elvin and Eunice stay... and the place which I hope to move over to... I'm so glad to know another Singaporean (Anisa is from Msia but studys in SG) here, meaning I will not get that bored that easily... and hopefully...

On one of the night, we went for this night life thingy organised by the seniors... they brought us to check out the pubs here... From night life, I got to know Dominique from SG who will be here for 3 yrs, I think... and Ferry (erm... dunno how to spell his name) He's from Indonesia.

On Sat, I went to the harbour and bays with Anisa and Lella (my house-mate), scenery was quite pretty and weather is wonderful... Finally its a sunny day... (it has been raining for the past few days and nights)


this is Wellington...

On sun, I went to this sunday market. I finally see bean spouts... "xiao bai cai" and "cai xin"... I bought lots of vege and fruits, intending to stock up for the coming week. This is the first time I got so excited over buying vegetables... (I feel like I'm a housewife... and thats bad)
