Big secret revealed!

I completely forgot about continuing the previous post about what the actual good news was.
Since it has all confirmed now....... let's reveal the awesome news...

FRANK IS MOVING BACK TO AUCKLAND!!!!!
 :DDD

The story goes like this, since I am doing my internship up in Auckland instead of New Plymouth, Frank decided to look for a job to move back up, because we did not want to spend our first year of marriage apart. Despite his current job with good pay, good prospect, promising future, he was prepared to resign and take whatever job he can find up in Auckland, even with a pay cut, just to be up here with me.

Luck was on our side, the very first interview he went for, he got the job offer, with similiar pay with what he is currently getting, and it is up here in Auckland!!!

I guess he must be really good at what he is doing, or he has good karma, whatever it is, the contract is signed and he is moving back up in 2 months time!

Time for house hunting finally!! And all our plans of getting married, getting a house, can go ahead as planned. I think everything happened for a reason, the reason I did not get the internship in NP is so that I can get my current job in Auckland, with awesome colleagues and best pay out of all the offers i get, yet do not need to be apart from Frank, plus we get to be close by to our parents!

So yeah, I was real stress before because i did not want to be apart from Frank anymore, and i did not want him to give up such a good job to come up to Auckland,  I guess things happened for a good reason and everything worked out welll in the end!

Happy 25 Birthday to me.

Turning 25 in 3 minutes.
Three years ago, I was celebrating Frank's 25th. I remember the jokes made during his birthday about hitting the mid twenties, before I realise, it is my turn to celebrate the big 25. 
Life in the last 25 years has been a journey, I am pleased to say that today as i look back, I feel a deep contentment that I went through everything I did, because without yesterday, there will not be today. 

So, what have I achieved after 25 years?
I have found the love of my life and am ready to walk down the aisle with the person I want to grow old with, 
I am working in a job that I enjoy, making good use of my skills and knowledge i spent my early twenties training for,
I work in a good environment and good pay, with cool people my age who are supportive and fun to work with,
I live in a country which is safe and peaceful, with lots of opportunities for my profession and I do not need to worry about politics or corruption,
I have my family close by, 
I have friends that i can call true friends, friends who love me and whom i love, friends with a genuine heart with no motive other than being there for me, friends that do not judge when i am myself,
I have a life that i look forward to, spending time with good friends and love ones, doing things i love doing, truthfully having a good time,
I have a dog who is super cute that i am so proud of, besides being well trained and absolutely adorable, she is also my best friend and a part of my life, she never stops making me smile everyday,
I have a cat, he does nothing really besides eating but i adore him,
I have a pet fish whom i saved from bring abandoned to die, and I am proud to say that until today, after almost one year from the day i adopted him, he is still alive and well,
I guess this is the end of list since i started writing about my pets...

On a side note, i have noticed how much i have grown in the past few years. I was the girl who came to New Zealand hoping to leave the country as soon as possible, she disliked uni so much it was a chore to get through each year, she was so depressed about life she did not make an effort to live it fully. And today, this girl has become someone who loves what she does, is using her knowledge she gained at uni fruitfully, she loves going to uni, learning new things and meeting her friends, she now loves the country she lives and has a future planned ahead, living life the best as she can while enjoying every moment of it.

Back~!

I am back after many months of absence!
I did not abandon my blog, many times i signed in and opened a new page up to type, but then i stopped. I had many plans ahead, but everything couldn't proceed because of uncertainties. No, I am not talking about the wedding, we are getting married for sure!
So I have been waiting and waiting, finally, the pathway is unblocked and the plan can fall into place!
I will not reveal what it is until it is allconfirmed.

A very good news delivered to me today indeed, I can't wait to see what's in the future! Oh Ball this Saturday by the way, another exciting event :)
Till then.

Got the job!

I haven't forgotten about my blog, it's just that I didn't want to blog about things until I am sure of what is going to happen. So my plan to move to New Plymouth did not work out, instead, I got a job in Auckland. As it turns out, the salary offer was highest out of all the jobs I applied, and it's a really good pharmacy too, so I guess leaving it to fate turned out well after all. The only thing is Frank is still in New Plymouth, and we both do not want to be separated after getting married next year, so that is another uncertainty we have to work out, will update later on about what is happening to us. Right now, we have a lot to plan, as our intial plan did not work out at all.

Uncertanties

I haven't been gone, it's just that every time I want to write something here, I am lost of words.
So many uncertainties ahead, change of plans and I no longer know what is happening next year, that puts me off from blogging.

I will update once everything is clearer.
