25 NOV:
we took a plane to sydney, and it was pretty long! and we were spamming movies on the plane. i watched the time traveller's wife, and eh, it can get pretty confusing cause there's many flashbacks. then i watched 500 days of summer, and i sort of get bored of it and i gave up. so i decided to watch transformers, which is a very cool movie but i also gave up halfway. because i needed to sleep hahahaha LOL.
then we took another plane to auckland and we played poker at the airport during the transit time. poor chongtat got to wear a mask when we played slapjack cause all the dust were flying around. lol.
26 NOV:
we reached auckland and we met our tour guide, adele and she's really nice! and max the driver was really funny too. sze nee keep saying she thinks their names are like computers like a dell, and mac (s).
we then went up all the way to mount eden which is really nice and stuff! you get a good view of the city! (: there's like so many daisys and flowers and blah and ms goh took one and hanged it on her jacket! we should have taken a photo.
then we went to the hostel for some afternoon tea and we had brownies and citrus slices. i was hoping for a second helping but i didnt in the end.
after that we went sky tower which is like the tallest building in auckland and we can have a bird's eye view from there. and oh gosh yuching's and my buddy did a bungee jump from there on her 13th birthday! that's so high i wonder how she did that! :D
and then i think me and sze nee went to chiong to bathe and we took around 10 to 15 min and we were on time for dinner! dinner's pasta in white sauce and it was good. and i think we crashed at night after the reflection writing.
27 NOV:
we went rotorua, where there is always this smell because of the sulphur from the steam coming up from the ground.
we went to the waitomo caves, where it's made up limestones and there was glowworms!!! it was wonderful when we took the boat ride there was so many glowworms! so glowy hahahaha.
then we went to this dam and waited for it to open and it was such a sight! and the water's really clear.
then we went to this wairakei terraces and we sort of learn more about the geothermal thingies. then i think we were allowed to walk around the city near lake taupo (we call it lake taupok) and sze nee and i went gaga over tip top's ice cream. i wonder why tang didnt want one. so we had a double scoop one. mine was lime and caramel fudge and oh gosh it was yummy! sze nee and cookies and cream with mint smash i think. forget the names hahahaha.
then we went lake taupo(k) and we wanted to go back to the coach but we got lost! so we asked the ppl where's superloo cause the coach's somewhere there. ahahahaha the superloo! :D and i think we went to this another hostel in rotorua and we were at the first floor! less toilets but no need climb stairs (:
dinner's tomato paste with mutton (i think) with chips and garlic bread. watched the whale rider during night time. and once the chief in the movie said: shut your front door up. and sze nee said: what about the back door? and then we later decided this could only be used to ci en cause he fart too much.
and oh tang had this auntie spirit and our whole room is like infected!!! we all packed our showering bag hahahaha.
and then we played poker cards at night with the guys until pretty late in the morning. and ci en keep farting and polluting our air so he had to sit on the window everytime he needs to fart. LOL (he only had his window when we are back in auckland cause the window's big enough for him to sit on).
and i forgot which night it was that we sneaked out at 3am at night to go to macs. it was a long walk and bitterly cold and we sat at this bench to have the food and i bet ppl in the cars passing by are like: what are they doing? and the tchers found out that we sneaked out the next day. and gave us like a warning cause they didnt give us a warning before.
28 NOV:
we are still in rotorua and we had a walk in the rainforest and poor robbie many ppl werent listening to him but i was! though i dint really pay attention (does that count?) and then we walked to this pool where ppl were canoeing down this 7m eh, waterfall or something? i would like to do that hahahaha!
then we went to this farm and had the sheep show first and oh! so many types of sheep! and then we watched them shear the sheep and they got volunteers to milk the cow and also feed the little lambs. then they got their trained dogs to demo how they control the sheep or something and we could take a photo with all the animals later. and this little boy (i forgot his name) was very very cute and ppl are like trying to get their photo with him taken and he was like having this expression: why are all this weird ppl taking photos with me! and we were laughing cause he looked damn funny.
then we had a little ride over the farm. there was this time we could get off and look and feed the sheep and the lamas. and ppl were like OH SHEEP so cute!, and then OH SHIT cause they stepped onto poo. szenee was on the cart and she got to see the whole show and she was laughing like mad. and ppl were chased by the sheep afterwards. and then we had some kiwi juice and honey and oh gosh the honey is super de sweet! lol.
anyway afterwards we had some river studies in the farm and tang was hoping it would rain so that we no need to do. but it was really quite fun cause we get to climb down the eh, slope to get to the river. and oh yuhong and tzechong was trying to catch this fish at the other river bank and so they sneaked and climbed over this sort of broken bridge when the tchers werent looking. and when they got there the fish went away. then the i think mrs wong spotted them and was like: why are you both there?! so they came back and the fish went back to the resting place and we were like: the fish dont like you two!
we then went to this geothermal park and it was spectacular cause you get to see all those steam coming up from the rocks and some boiling mud. and it had this really strong sulfur smell coming up but it was okay.
then we went to the gift shop and later we had to go for this marae which is sort of just next door. it was really interesting but you could see me and szenee dozing off because of lack of sleep haha! but it was really funny when the guys had to learn the haka (how to spell?) dance.

then we had dinner there and the dessert was awesome since we ate them first (irony eh?). then we got like too full and had some main course only. but it was still nice anyway.
then back to hostel, played poker till late again.
