2020

What a year

Started it off with cmaping for five days with eric at mt kinabalu

Applied for the NZ working holiday visa in Jan. Using Digi hot-spot on a huawei mate9... Getting through the servers was a miracle. I remember praying so earnestly to God 

Flew to NZ in Feb from singapore after visiting Joshua. My first ever flight that needed a transit in Aus.

Touched down in Christchurch and got picked up by Crystal, we homestayed

Worked in timaru in a carrot juicing factory, loved caroline bay and the bay side walk, played basketball, badminton with Kinson, Hea

Lock down happened

Worked 2 days and off 2 days

We had lots of trips for hiking, Mt Nimrod the first with its beautifully cold waterfall

Made friends with a kiwi Dav and Sue, Bbq and used his airsoft gun. 

While the world was going crazy with Covid, NZ stayed chill woth Jacinda and Lvl 4 lockdown.. And its citizens generally really following guidelines 

After four months of 12 hour morning shift factory work... Winter was approaching. We resigned and did a road trip in a motor home for abt a week. Queenstown, wanaka, lake tekapo, mt Cook.

First time hiking in snow, magical

Did snow boarding too, its cool. Much more fun than skiing, well the boots were comfier 

Then road trip with 4 ppl in the car, crystal, kexin, han and I in a nissan liberty. Milford sounds (fuel up your car before going!), nelson, backpacking lots of places, homestaying too... 

Salmon, queenstown, bluff oysters, Invercargill Starbucks.. 

Then we were up north, Wellington, thanks Michelle for hosting us in your beautiful home. 

Then Auckland. Enterprise Recruitment got us into something-micro.. A warehouse for phones and laptops. But the hours were too short. So we got 12 hour night shift work at Sistema. Life there... Mele, hazel, elizabeth and her stories.. 

We also tried to to pasar malam eith sam from treasure Kitchen.. But then second round of covid came.. 

Well.. 

I JUST SAW A SHOOTING STAR! 11.03PM at. Mt eden...

Cool

Yea.. Moved houses from 2H3 to 2H5.. Becamw guan jia, clean stuff... 

Owh i bumped my head om the shower handle one day, nose started bleeding.. Hasn't stopped.. Especial when i exert too much strength at work.. I feel like a blood vessel pops.. Lol.. 

Or maybe it was just the unhealthy life in sistema.. (i wasn't sleeping properly). I'll sleep in the car. Sleep suring breaks. Be sleepy when i drive back.  And only get abt 4-5 hours sleep in the morning (its too bright!) and i probably didn't have enough hormone built up to be sleepy enough. 

And on our off days we'd need to flip back from night to day back to night. 

Erm.. Anyways.. Now i sleep alot.. Avg 7-8 hours. Sometimes 9-10 on the weekends

Anyways... 

Started attending Elim church. (we tried ABT). Wanna be more.. Integrated and involved... 

Ps Becs said 1. Reprioritise, 2. Reposition 3. Resurface 

When things are brought back up, its time to deal with them.. The right way. 

Its getting cold.. Regret not bringing a sleeping bag, blanket.. 

It just gets.. Really cold here.. 

I'm not planning anymore 

I'm not.. Being proactive and thinking ahead. 

And not.. Interacting with.. People.. 

Sigh.. 

Life.. 

Life.. 

2021..

Come quickly
