Huh,after two tests on two consecutive weeks,
it's finally the mid sem break!
Though there's gonna be another test after the break,
I don't care,I just need a break from all the books and notes.
So there I clicked and $$$ and booked the tickets.
It's not a soloist travel though, cause there's still a bunch of Chch friends joining me.
So lets put your hands up and say HIII to Christchurch with me,the tourist a.k.a driver.haha
So before all the fun parts start, it'll be a 6-hour journey to Chch from Dunny.
That should be all right,I'm just kinda worried that I might doze off and miss the stop.
Thank God I made it to the right stop cause fyi the bus stopped at a few places,
and every time it stops, I'll turn my head around to look for Subway and National Bank sign,
cause according to Sing Yii,when I saw these two signs,it means its time to disembark.
"Well,can I get your attention please? This is the only stop at Riccarton Road, so for those whose last stop is here,please come and get your luggage", said the driver.
Oh well,I supposed this is the stop but I didn't see any Subway or National Bank around.
Hmm,perhaps I should just go down and asked the driver.
Just as I stepped out of the bus,Sing Yii was already there! So phewww!
Thank God I got the right stop! How smart am I :P
So after dinner and a pleasant sleep,
there I started my journey in Christchurch with DDD740 Camry :)
Everyone + Camry
So our first destination is Akaroa Lake. and it will be a 1hour and 30mins plus journey.
The time is not the problem,the challenging part is the hills and hills and hills....
According to the person who rent the car to us,
he told us that most of the people driving to Akaroa will end up have a burning engine cause they keep on stepping on the brake while going downhill, so he teaches me to use Gear 2 when driving down the steep road.
Oh well,he certainly did freak me out cause for sure I don't want to end up calling for help in Akaroa,
so I was extra careful and concentrate all the way from Chch to Akaroa,
finally, we arrived at our destination safe and soundly,both us and the car! haha
yay! A photo before the journey.
It's so breathtaking,isn't it?
Fish and chips
Heeeeelp meeee!!!
I wanna hug you tight,my dear sea.
On our way back,we stopped at few places which I cant recall its name,
but that's not important, the best part is the photos and memories :)
The Christchurch gang
Releasing stress
Call it the "rock" beach
I just loveee this!
Epic jump shot which must be done at a beach.
As usual,life's full of hope :)
Us at the playground
Amazing? yea call it "magic!"

So there it goes my first day,this is just the morning part,
Sing Yii and I went for night karaoke + dim sum as supper,
still we make good random partners.
The next morning we went cycling cause the weather was sunny and quite warm,
I visited their Uni, the damaged city which is rebuilding now and etc etc..
Though I got messy hair due to the helmet, painful butt caused by the uneven road,
nothing can beat all the fun that we had! :)
So our next destination is Wildlife Park.
Picture before feeding the giraffe
the enormous creature! haha
blueek ><
Hello we are the otters--Do,Re,Mi,Fa,Soooo!
Superwoman on the trampoline
Magic~
Steamboat from the hosts to the guest.
The chef of the night. Thanks for the food :)
So that marks the end of my journey in Christchurch.
Thank you guys for the warm welcome and I reckon all of us have fun throughout the trip.
Happy Holidays for those who are having their break,
and for those who are not,good luck for your assignment and tests :)
Cheers :)
