Getting cold
It rained today. Like really rained. So I was very happy – got to wear 3 layers today. You see, we were expecting it to be cold. Not cold cold but somewhat cold. BUT it has been real hot the past few days. Like hot hot. NZ sun can get REAL bad, apparently highest cases of skin cancer around. Anyways I only brought 1 pair of shorts and a few t-shirts. I almost left out the pair of shorts thinking it’ll be too windy. I had reduced my clothing so that we can squeeze more of Sophie’s books in. So I was quite glad that my sweaters came in handy today.
P/s It’s as I suspected. We are the only Chinese on the base and in this school. The other Asian is Filipino. The rest are from Europe, Canada and New Zealand. But most of them are very well travelled so no one asked us if Singapore is part of China, phew! I remember 10 yrs ago when I was backpacking in Europe someone asked me, "How were the Communist?" Erm ok…
