The hunt continues....

I've been pouring over countless advertised job vacancies.....being very critical and picky (not the best way to look for work...lol) but I want to find something decent,for me it is important that my first full-time job here is something that I really love, I don't like those "transition jobs" that you do...uhm just becoz.....I am such an idiot, this was second motioned by my sister and further carried by my mom..in response to how I went about "looking for a job" FINE! lol 

They did have a point but I know that I wouldn't do well in a job that I don't have any real interest in......I had a relaxing day today, went for a walk, texted the girl that will supposedly haunt me later on....thanks Wilson...I'll keep that one in mind ;) I think that he does have a point, I recently gave some thought about keeping certain elements of my life and my blog-which is kind of the same thing..this blog is my actual life....and because it is a very accurate description of my life...it may be used as evidence against me in some trial or case against me....I saw that on TV, where facebook was used to investigate people. Perhaps my blog may be used as evidence in some sort of hearing....I write the whole truth here.....but some of it is highly dramatized :P lol....I feel that I need to get my hands into the dirt before I start losing my skills. I thought about going back to my old workplace but, I don't want to take a step back....but if there aren't any forward steps..i might as well start walking backwards :P

We had another cancellation to our class party.....how sad,one day....we'll finally have it.....I hope all my buddies are all good too and I wish them all the best in their young careers :) I finally got my much awaited song...Thanks to my friends delay tactics :P I didn't get to put it in my CD...well, I have big plans for next year but only time will tell how that all plays out....my planned trip to Texas is on a big hold at the moment....there is a huge depression.....I now know why they call it a depression....coz it makes those who dwell on the silly economic situation DEPRESSED! :P

Thanks Allen...another 15 inches huh? well, I'd like to think I have grown much more than a few mere inches :P.....well, all-in-all it has been a great time for me studying here....I wish I could be paid to explore this place coz there are just so many places just begging for me to explore!! Have a great weekend all and yeah.....happy holidays too...whatever it is you celebrate in this crazy time of the year! :)

Laterz....

my spanish word for today : vas - not used alone....brought to you by Maria :) thanks.x

Keep me flying,flying.....so free! :D GRADUATION CEREMONY

My graduation is today......yep, just a few more hours then I'm off to the magical city of Auckland to put a silly gown on and bask in my intelectual glory...oh joy :P what I would really love is to get a job and put all that fancy knowledge into practice.....I hope that I can be of some use to the IT industry here in New Zealand. My contribution would be among many from all across the pacific...uhm and India...NZ needs it and in light of the strengthening Fiji dollar....I just wanna say "I wanna go home!!" :( but, I am a man on a mission (as usual) I am here to finish my studies and go back for my already planned wedding in Fiji. Hopefully there is some sort of structure to my life that possibly appeals to people with their sanity, still in check. For crazy people like myself : "there is no spoon"  :D

A small "tap on the back,Jack" moment for me...is all I want for my graduation ceremony. My mom and my sister will be eyewitnesses of this moment as proof that I did do something worthwhile here in this beautiful country :) I have given myself a deadline....1 month. If I don't find a place in this new society within such a time frame I shall return to whence I came!

This is MY timeframe....the great people at New Zealand Immigration have been kind enough to give me 3 months..lol "Te Ratonga Manene" 

I had a hard time finding Auckland Domain.....we got a little lost but managed to find our way to the museum auditorium a little late....but still within time. 

When I sat down I was told by C-the lady standing on the top of the stairs that I had an award...I replied with a "nooo" and I checked the programme and yep, there it was "This award is presented in recognition of graduands who have above average achievement and have demonstrated strong commitment to quality and success" WOW!! I was very happy with my special award, there were 3 of us in my class with a special award. I received it gladly :D

I was flying on the wings of achievement on this night! overjoyed almost in tears.....but nobody likes a crybaby :P I played the whole event down coz I didn't think it was such a big deal....until I got there, and I could just feel the atmosphere, it may not have been a big deal for me but.....it was HUGE for those who had worked really hard and for those who made this their dream and their goal in life. This was just a stepping stone for me, I have bigger dreams and higher goals in life, my dreams and aspirations have changed since my time here has passed, I have learned so much, I have experienced enough about life to know a bit more about what I want in my own life :)

Now for the big question everyone would be asking..."Now what?" lol I'm not asking that question....I know what, just have to follow through. My girl-friend has been so strange with me, I had decided not to contact her for a while and now, I really don't want to talk to her....her personality has become dark and ugly, and even though I know it could be a phase, I just find her disgusting right now. I know she is fat (yes I can call her fat because she accepts and appreciates the truth from me) and she doesn't feel too good about herself right now but she painting such a rosy picture perfect picture that I just honestly don't buy....she is being superficial again...and I really don't know why she does this, she isn't herself and I can't stand her being like this anymore. I cannot be with someone who doesn't respect herself and who doesn't feel like she deserves anything good in her life. Of cos by the time I tell her this or by the time she reads this....she would have a different state of mind and she would definitely argue that this just isn't true.....crazy Panda :) I hope that she finds herself a good guy who is willing to put up with her crap and sort her out....coz I just can't deal with her bullsh*t anymore! I'm sorry :(

Anyway, that doesn't do anything to my buzz :) I'm moving on with life and I can't afford to let anything or ANYONE slow me down.....I would like to congratulate anyone in the world that is improving themselves in ANY way, whatever their achievement, I hope that it helps them become better people :)

My spanish word for today is : mejorar :D

"As we go on....we remember all the times we....had together..."

2000 post views yay :D!

thanks for reading everyone :)

I'm graduating in 2 days, all this excitement I've had has been building up to this moment.....I'm just amazed at how fast it all went by......I'm in a new country,the excitement of breaking into the IT industry here is really something I'm looking forward to. I have had many business ideas floating around in my head......just like many like minded New Zealanders out there. I have been sick the last 2 days, I hope it goes right through me, just in time for my big day on Monday. I'm trying to literally wash it out by drinking huge bottles of NZnatural spring water...lol I am happy with my progress so far...however,tiny and insignificant, it is progress nonetheless :) 

I spoke to S last Sunday and her prediction was right,I am writing about it..lol....she was super,really cool,really delicious and fun :) I missed her so much, she has changed alot and so have I....I am very happy with the positive changes I have made in my life, there are however, obvious negative changes that I need to work on...like my procrastination...I like to call it "procrastinational creativity" thanks for that one T :) uhm...yeah I'll sort that one out later :P

I had been working on the magento project and still no word from the people who were supposed to offer me an internship...I believe this is due the the recession. The New Zealand dollar fell below the Fiji dollar, really weird since 1 NZD usually buys around 0.88 FJD but today, you would get .98 FJD.....Amazing! The Fiji economy is on a recovery so any recession would not be as significant as it would be against a stronger dollar....as in the case of the NZ dollar (I am no economist, this is just my usually stab in the dark guess :P) Employers, are not hiring here in New Zealand and people are even being laid off...it is a huge crisis here and this is somewhat worrying for a graduate like me.....I am not so worried though,it is after all not my home country but...I feel for many who do live here..I always have my home and hopefully my business contacts...if I do go back. Everyone is telling me to go back home...but I don't feel that I am done here.....I certainly want to stay on for at least another 2 years. I want to go back to Fiji for my wedding though, if I still have a willing candidate :P I mean...bride...for now, I'm in a hazy point in my life where there is quite a lot of uncertainty floating around.....I will figure it out, I know that for sure..it is only a matter of time :)
