missing ashburton!

  i miss ashburton because i miss them have been looking at the love notes they gave me almost every night before i sleep  will i see them again?  if i am going to visit all of them, i'll need to take next year off and start my journey from singapore to taiwan to Uk to france to germany then all the way to south america, haha 法国佬 – 去Talley’s 工作的司机。No worries 和 Up to you 是他的口头禅。一餐可以吃8粒鸡蛋,超夸张的。热情友善的好人一个。很爱找人聊天,所以几乎全工厂和Holiday Park 的人都认识。一开始和他沟通不良,觉得他很奇怪,但相处久后觉得他人好好又不计较。可是有时很情绪化,令人摸不着他心情为何转变得那么快。 司机哥哥 – 英国人。通常周末载我们去图书馆上网和去超级市场进货。他的笑声超好认,很像圣诞老公公。起初觉得他是成熟男人的代表,不像其他人那么没计划,因为他28岁了。相处久后,发现他蛮爱扮可爱。常说自己很倒霉,虽然他的经历是蛮倒霉的,但我相信有一天他可以顺利朝着自己的梦想迈进。 稻米 – 爱尔兰人。由于我误会他曾经偷拿我的鸡腿,所以每次他对我笑,我都觉得他笑容邪恶。直到他走的前两天,误会才解开。他并没有偷我的鸡腿。打呼声很大。个子很高,天气冷时换了件帅气外套,球衣外套就很少出现了。也是周末出城的团员。 肉食男 – 餐餐吃很多肉。Jen说他笑容灿烂。他不过才20岁,难怪那么活泼有阳光。也许一起出城所以混熟了。老爱讲冷笑话。喜欢和他聊天,总有出其不意的爆笑场面。 小鬼 – 肉食男的朋友。和肉食男一起简直是对孖宝,总爱取笑我。和他一起去Christchurch 和看日落后开始熟了。他的酒窝竟然深过我的! 法国型女 – 看不出她31岁了。短头发,衣着打扮和一般女生很不一样。喜欢heavy metal 。在

traveling alone

  no one help me take picture with the statue   having brunch at the park   saw a cute toilet on the way to i-site   reminds me of the playground in ashburton where thomas dropped me off after work this is not the right time to visit wellington. there are a lot of unique buildings, interesting museums and art galleries, nice cafes, and so on. but i am not mentally and emotionally prepared. the incident has had a huge impact on me. im confused. im lost. im just not me.  those who knew what happened, please continue to send me your blessings. i need loads of them to move on. those who didn't know what happened, please don't bother asking.  i will visit wellington again, hopefully with jen.
