My Heart Is Missing My Snuggly

Being away from home and from my loved ones is really painful. The thoughts of home, my loved ones, especially my snuggly, really made me break down and cry.

She even made videos in my phone for me to watch. I definitely wept when I watched if even though it was very short video.

I was fortunate when she shared a few music videos with me on Facebook and it kept me strong.

You are expecting a picture of me crying, aren’t you? Well, sorry to disappoint, but here is a picture of my snuggly, mockingly crying.

Seeing that I have been indoors more as of late (due to finding a job and also because of the horrible rain that has been here all day long), I was busy listening to some music that snuggly had previously mentioned. Like this one below~!

It is an awesome song I must say to understand that we need to live life. But there are a few songs that snuggly shared on her Facebook and we were singing to it in the car before I left.

Like this one here, by Calvin Harris.

But after I left, I soon realized how much she meant to me, and the feeling was the same for her towards me. And we have been sorely missing each other ever since.

This song was shared by snuggly to me via Facebook, and certainly it is a song that helps me keep strong over here in New Zealand.

Snuggly, I won’t give up on us. I have been missing you sooo dearly, and you are the pillar of my strength here in New Zealand. Be strong and stay strong, and I would be strong for you too, and stay strong until your arrival here in New Zealand.

I certainly can’t wait for you to come meet me here in New Zealand. It is no fun cooking for one person. Sometimes it doesn’t seem all that worth it. But shall continue cooking while I can to save some money because it is way cheaper to do so. Huhuhu.

First Time In New Zealand

Being in New Zealand the first time was very daunting. But I was fortunate to meet a couple who were on their way back to Christchurch after they 2 weeks holiday in Malaysia.

Meet Bill and Sandy.

Bill and Sandy of Christchurch

They are really nice folks who really had a lot to talk about with me. Me about Malaysia, and them about New Zealand and Christchurch. It was nice talking to them and was very fortunate to have met them.

They even allowed me a view of New Zealand from high above (since Sandy had the window seat). A lot of people were taking photos.

New Zealand from the Skies

And here is a little trivia, New Zealand has a human population of 4 million, while the sheep population is more than 70 million? Could it really be so? Help me count the sheep can?

After that I took a shuttle instead of the bus to my backpackers as I knew I kinda hurt my shoulder the other time and better not to strain it unnecessarily at the moment.

But here is a view of my room. Sharing with 5 others on my last night there.

The pictures are a little blur as my hands were a little shaky when I took it and the lighting were quite poor in the room as there was still someone in there sleeping.

Now here is my messy bed.

Of course I was there for 2 nights and I did went around, but there wasn’t much to see since they are still demolishing buildings around Christchurch and the centre of Christchurch was closed off to the public. So there wasn’t much to do either.

Flowers in the Botanic Garden

Here is the Botanic Garden, though I didn’t really walk around it, I just went to I-Site to get a bus ticket out of Christchurch. Where to? Well, I shall share that in a moment.

View While Strolling Along The Streets of Christchurch

They do have very nice view and walkway as compared to us in Malaysia. But still it is because of the nice weather that made it nice to walk around.

Me Resting My Shoulders After Walk From Mall

Well I took a short rest and forgive for my fingers intrusion in the picture, still not used to taking pictures using my GoPro Hero 2 yet. Resting why? Well, my shoulders were slightly hurting so I thought why not take a short rest.

While resting I got a few nice shots.

Park in Christchurch

Well, after all that walking, you must be wondering what I was surviving on. Well, I kinda survived on Nutella and bread until I got a bit sick of having sweet breakfast, lunch and dinner, and so I went on to a nearby Pizzeria and gotten myself a cabonara. I choose that because it is more filling that the bolognese.

Now you must be wondering, where I am. Well, I am currently in the state of Nelson, in Central Nelson.

I shall do my best to update on my trip over to Nelson and how much of a not a nice travel it was from Christchurch to Nelson was.

Till next time.

I am amazed as to how we had grown into each other though there has been a whole lot of miss steps along the way on my end, I really wish we could really continue on strong together, for each other, and forever.

I would be missing a whole lot by leaving, but I do hope to gain a whole lot more by going. Lets make this an adventure of a lifetime (despite missing soo many and soo much).
