Holiday part 2
the second part of my holidays was spent back here at palmy. Danny also came down with me to visit for a week. The bus down wasn't too bad, the seats are not the most comfortable thing, so both of us had sore bums. And i spent most of the break walkign in circles jus to give my bum a break from all the sitting.
Bad thign about being a post grad students is, well, not really suppose to have a holiday, and my class schedule during the holidays is more eventful that during a nomral semester week. Monday, tueday and friday I had full lecture days, in addition i had a meeting on friday for my QS class, and on top of all those i had focus group sessions to run on monday and wednesday night for our PD project. What that unfortunately meant was, my poor hun had to stay at home doing his work on his laptop while i was away at Massey during the day. And the fact that I had heaps of work to work on didn't help either. But what was important was that when I take a break, it was just that much more special when someone is here to share with you. I no longer had to cook dinner alone, nor eat it by myself. And i must say Danny is excellent when it comes to assisting me in the kitchen, chopping (onions), cleaning, washing. Then there's T.V, anime, and ps2... you know.. just the usual.
And for the first time since I've came down, we had been able to have a proper 'lunny day' on friday nights. We went and had a really nice turkish meal, and since no driving, we ordered a glass of wine to accompany too ^^ Turkish food is actually really nice, guess when i go back to auckland, i better go dig around and find nice turkish restaurants ^^
My room is really not designed for 2 ppl, my poor hun had to camp out on the floor the entire week, and everytime i need to walk to my bed or the wardrobe, i need to tramp over his sleeping space :P BUt hopefully I had enough blanket under to make it a comfortable sleeping place.
I guess the only downside to danny visiting is... well... i wont' embarrass him too much, but just a hint, i am thinking of replacing his nickname from slowpoke to snorlax :P
