Another working day in the orchard. Today was a little bit tough for me, as I'm not tall enough to be doing the "bottom-shoot" for the kiwi trees. So, by end of the day, my neck is in pain that I need to put counterpain before I go to bed.
Obviously, not cooked by me. I burnt the egg and the onions, hence, my roomie is doing all the cooking and I shall do the washing. T___T
I have a new housemate!!! Peter from Germany. He's nice and funny and he cooks really good! *FINALLY*
10 October 2015 (Saturday)
Working officially on a Saturday. *sigh* Eventhough I worked on Saturday too, back in Malaysia, but it was unofficially. Well, there's no 8-5 job in Malaysia! It's an unwritten rule for you to stay back and work the extra hours. So, yeaaaaaaaaaa. Working on a Saturday and your friends texted you telling you they are in the mall isn't really what you had in mind on a weekend.
Today, it was worse, from neck pain, it's now neck and waist pain! I can't even look down or bend down anymore. I need to go home and apply more counterpain and at the same time do some yoga pose (Thanks, Eunice for teaching me some of it).
There's 2 German girls came to our house to wait for Mel and one of them was really pretty!!! ^_^ Thank goodness most people I met so far is the talkative ones and not feeling awkward kind.

DAY OFF!!!~ Time to relax my stresses-muscle!
We went to the town to get some milk and bread, thought of heading to the beach, but we ended up getting comfy at home and doesn't wanna move.
After yearssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss of not driving manual car. I drove and the engine went off like 3 times from Mus & Ai Wen's place back to ours, which is less than 50 metres. T___T Fail maximum!
Mel couldn't wait for another couple to arrive and asked us to show them their room and Mel will come tomorrow to talk to them. Mel told us it was a French couple, so that is what we are expecting, but it turns out to be a Israeli couple. @__@ Oh Mel! She assumed wrongly. However, my new housemates are really nice, funny and definitely a straight forward people, not the calculative type. *Thank goodness*
12 October 2015 (Monday)
Back to work! What's nice about today is NO SUPERVISOR!!!~ but not good is we work too fast we end work at 3.30pm. *damnnnnnn* Lesser pay!
After work, I need to go to the Town for some banking transactions since everything closes at 5pm and do not open on Sunday, I better do it when I leave work early. We really can't go to groceries store. We will definitely end up buying more groceries back, which is bad because we haven't earn NZD but we are spending a lot of NZD now. @__@
Awkward situation happened yesterday, when one of our housemate decided to set some house rules (IN FRONT OF OUR GUEST!!) Yes, there's a backpacker Conor, from Ireland is waiting for Mel at our place but Mel is not picking up her call, so we decided to let Conor stay a night on our couch. ^_^ Really different culture! We don't do stuff like that in front of our guests but he just did it. When we are talking to Conor he just turn on the tv real loud but to him we are not letting him relax, but to us he is just plain rude! Then, the epic part, he started to clean the house and vacuum the floor!!! WOW!!! SUPER EPIC, RUDE-NESS TO THE MAXIMUM LEVEL!! and we already told the rest of the housemates if anything happened we will be the one getting the blames. It is always "the girls", "GIRLS", "girls, you need to do this", "girls you need to do that", "girls, why did you do this?", "girls, can you just vacuum the floor?", "girls need to do the dishes"................................................................................................................................................................and so it goes.
Oh well, what's done is done! Mel gave us a choice to move out with Mus and Ai Wen and we toss the coin and it said stick with Mel. Soooooo, I have to forever hold my case. Time for bed and work tomorrow!
Luv,

Neighbour's dog came and visit us today. Very friendly dog that is always sourcing for food. ^_^
After so many days of waiting for each other to cook dinner, and having pasta all the time, we finally had our chance to cook our own dinner!!! *YEY*
Obviously, not cooked by me. I burnt the egg and the onions, hence, my roomie is doing all the cooking and I shall do the washing. T___T

The sky is really blue today.
Like I said, I'm too short for it
Do the wefiie before your supervisor catches you (Introducing my Malaysian-mates : (Left) Ai Wen, Mus, *moi* & my roomie, Sze Man)
We eat kiwis in Malaysia but we never really seen a kiwi tree before
I look darned tired that I can't even move and I don't wanna move!
We had a plain chicken fettucine carbonara, but it was yummy!!~ (Except I burnt the onions)

Came home and found Peter baked cookies and his own bread! The cookies are a bit burnt, but it's still edible and nice too!
We tried something new, chicken sausage fettucine with green apples in carbonara (Apparently, it taste not bad at all! ^_^)
