arggghh...connection for the internet too slow!!! I wonder what is NZ doing, not an IT country. So to you all who wanna come to NZ, please be prepared that technology is not that good in NZ. The normal rate for internet connection here is NZD6/hour. Damn expensive...
Today i work till 4.30pm. Actually i'm supposed to work till 6pm but due to unforeseen circumstances, i've knocked off at 4.30pm. NO MONEY again..
Haiz, i've gotta plan for the trip again. One month time, then i need to leave this place, Te Puke and move forward to the South Island. What i wanna do there? NO IDEA... totally blank...

Updates...New pair of shoes
Just a recap of what i have done during these few weeks:
I've finished my kiwi packing season in early June. This is my starting of my travel itenary. I went to Hamilton. I reached there at night but i couldn't find any accomodation because there is a big event there; something associates with Horticultural. Haiz, i've call several backpackers but still can't get any. However at last i found one which is very far frm town but juts opposite Hamilton Garden.
The next day, i am heading to Auckland and stay there for two days. I went to the 'gay' bar which is recommended by a lady whom i met at Hamilton. Nice experience indeed. After Auckland, i'm going to the Bay of Island- see the largest tree in NZ and Cape Reinga. Cool place but it was a raining day. So i couldn't see the best scenery. Cape is the only place whereby Tasman Sea's wave and Pacific Ocean's wave meet together. Kinda cool and is the most north part of NZ.
Um...after several days without work, i think about the money i spent and decided to find a job (hehe.. budget constraints). No job at all and i tried to contact my previous packhouse- Trevelyan. I was told no job at the moment but i can move back there. Luck is on my side, i've got work after a day rest in Te Puke.
TODAY
Work finished at 2pm. I went to Bayfair, The Mount. I bought cheap stuffs- a pair of shoes, underwears, thermal socks. Original price for the shoes is NZD39.90. i think because of 2nd last pair, the price reduced to NZD27.00. And now have winter discount, so is only NZD21++. Underwears (7 pcs) cheap quality but is only NZD8 after discount per box. Thermal socks is only NZD2.01 after discount. Original price is NZD 2.99. And i bought a jacket in K Mart few days back. Original price was NZd79.90. After discount is only NZD55.00.
So my advice is if you wanna buy winter clothings, probably you can buy during near winter. Sometimes have cheap stuffs available. So gotta do shopping regularly. My friends just bought a sleeping bag which can last during winter for only NZD 70 BUT buy 1 get 1 FREE. Thus, only NZD35 each. Cool right...
Tomorrow i wanna go to Tauranga. Shopping for grocery......
Night...

Politics
I was reading Mahathir, Teresa Kok and Hannah Yeoh's blog since i reached New Zealand. From their blogs, i can predict something will be gonna change when i'm back to my country. However, i have something in mind which troubled me. I wonder why Mahathir still can't leave politics eventhough he official resigned from his post as Malaysia's Prime Minister. I doubt there must a reason that MUST keep him bugging the goverment.
Reason Mahathir keep attacking Abdullah Badawi:
1) Abdullah didn't listen and follow to Mahathir's instruction.
2) Mahathir needs someone to replace Abdullah so that he will fleed from Lingam's case.
3) Most of Mahathir & friends businesses are stopped by Abdullah.
Come on, if Mahathir keep in attacking the current goverment (so called BN), PAKATAN will easily win over people hearts. Anyhow, this is how i like it to be. For my opinion, our current BN government is bad. They lacks of ideas to improve our country to become better. I think most of the poticians do not have a good qualifications compare to PAKATAN. Anwar was a lecturer in HARVARD. Teresa obtained two degrees and one master in philosophy. I wonder what BN people have except Khairy (proud attitude).
Sometimes i really wonder, Malaysian always say wanna CHANGE but they themselves do not wanna change. When it is polling time, ask to give a vot to change, they will say, come on nothing can be change. It has been like this for the past decade. Um... how to change if we, as a voter can't even change the mentality.
Bravo to ex-opposition (DAP-KEADILAN-PAS), you've gained 4 states gives most of our GDP. For me, Selangor will be the first state that everyone will be looking at. Well, how it will develop without BN. Economy? Lifestyle? Public safety? Um... and also signboard.
Malaysia signboard is very bad. It always lead us to the highway which we need to pay. Or else, it will show till half way. Come on, BN do something before PAKATAN did (you see, i given you tips now. Hahhahaha...)
Till now....

Life~~
Haiz..today im working again as normal. However, i heard that the kiwi season is going to end soon. Maybe the 2nd week of June. Now i don't know where i wanna go. We've have plan to travel to Auckland then to South Island if there's isn't any kiwi-repacking work for us.
Everyday i was thinking whether am i doing a good move to ask my friends to NZ. Maybe if i didn't ask them to join me, they might have a better life back in Malaysia. Well, there must be good and bad. Good is they can explore and learn new things- same goes to me. On the other hand, from what we calculated last time way back in Malaysia, the money that we earn is not as much as we expected. And the worse is when we live together, all our bad habits can be 'seen' (especially mine). I think i really have a problem to stay with many people. But that's all right. Hopefully, I will try to control so that it will last till the end of our trip. Hehehe...
This trip really give me a lot of changes; my mindset, my next step in my life, what i wanna achieve in the near future and etc.
Sometimes i ponder what is life going to be in the future? Well, is it waiting for the end-time? How should i make my life looks colourful. I really a bit pissed off here in NZ. I don't know y? Haiz....again im chatting with my cousin and i think everyone have their own problems...
Problems......why don't you go away....
However, i'm waiting for another trip to Bangkok. It will be on April- Songkran Festival. I'll be going with my buddies- TEH, GUANG and CARL. I can't wait for the trip now..hehehe
