bumped into the korean girl i met on the bus the other day. she told me someone passed away in an accident from skydive wanaka. checked for the news online out of curiosity. and i realised it was Nino, my instructor. OMG! shit happens but why this kinda accident?   im so glad to be alive. im so glad that i have accomplished something i always wanted to do without any injury. im simply glad to be sitting in the cafe typing this post while enjoying the super yummy cheesecake. seriously, you should live your life with no regrets.    RIP Nino thanks for the sweet memories 

it's almost 8 months since i arrived in NZ. ups and downs. south to north. yes or no. lots of decision making. and i learnt to take care of myself, that includes getting accommodation, securing a job, planning daily meals, budgeting my expenses, laundry and grocery shopping etc. that's tough! really tough!    back to south island simply love south island more than north wish i could meet the folks in ashburton  but everyone has moved on with new plans   oamaru is one of my fav towns nice victorian buildings, art galleries, and cute penguins! and the new frens i made here =)   wish i get to explore the world before  im too old or unfit to climb over fences,  walk 6km on icy grounds,  skydive from 15000ft i'll be back, new zealand!

  the flying & jumping companions   feels excited. not very nervous though   feels so great i did the freefall position. i smiled. i posed for the camera all without fail! yay!    it's great to be up in the sky if it's less expensive, i'll go for a second jump, haha my mum will be mad though   i'll do it again.  guess it feels so great because i have worked very hard for this from vineyard to packhouse to ski field from south island to north island and back to south island 8 months of hard work and i realized one of my childhood dreams =)

went to port chalmers to stay away from the crowd in dunedin. and i have to refrain myself from shopping, haha. it's a beautiful little town, just like what lonely planet describes: just a short drive away from dunedin, but a totally different world.    a huge anchor on top of the hill    view from the look out definitely worth the climb all the roads are very steep =.="   another giant anchor at the end of boiler point love this track it's next to the container terminal  feels like im in a tvb polive drama scene hahaha    the historic building add extra charm to the town  a very nice day trip  bought 2 apples from new world before i head back to dunedin seriously cant stop myself from shopping =P

weather during the day was pretty bad. rainy and windy. didnt do much in the city. walked around, snapped some pics then did some grocery shopping and went back to hostel to fully utilize the free internet. haha.    decided to go for a stroll after dinner. dunedin is defintely prettier at night. 

  went riding one last time before i leave the mountain.  it's an awesome day. thanks everyone for helping me with the t-bar!     back to wellington. was here 4 months back.  time flies. im back again. back to the south   queenstown! such a lovely place.  pretty lake and mountains but it has the worst i-site in NZ    day trip to arrowtown such a hot day. summer is here!  i got sunburn after the trip   milford sound would be better without the rain and strong wind spectacular view. just like watching national geographic would definitely do milford track one fine day!    and now in invercargill. a boring city according to a lot of people i have spent 4 days here. crappy weather.  rain + hail + sun + wind all in one day going to dunedin in 3 hours time!
