I have started the apartment search. I am leaning more toward living alone than flatting. With the shift work it is just so hard trying to navigate others. Nice thing about here is that mostly everything is done by a weekly basis so it makes it easy to budget, and signing leases is not always as big a deal as it is at home. However it is difficult for me to think in these terms right now.
St. Patty's was fun, I went to a couple of neat irish places yesterday, and back on Saturday there was a parade complete with bagpipers just like home!
I have lost my voice! Sometime between Sunday and Monday, I sometimes go a while between speaking with people, so didn't really notice! My throat doesn't hurt I just have no voice so it was rather funny when I tried to order a smoothie and no sound came out. The guy behind the counter was as shocked as I was let alone trying to hear me through my Canadian accent!
Soccer with Div. 1 team tomorrow night, hopefully it will be a little more competitive than the stuff on the weekend. People are all really fit and outdoorsy here, it is nice to see. Lots of parks and greenspace, and all so well maintained. Auckland is a hilly city, there are beautiful ocean and harbour views from everywhere. From my hotel I can see out across the harbour to Devonport and Rangitoto Island.
Pictures will get posted soon, my internet connection is not secure at the moment and it wastes my usuage allowance to do things like msn/google chat, upload pictures and use Skype.
