Its Friday and i am feeling all right!
I dont feel like going out tonight. Think I will just curl up in bed and read a good book tonite. But just thought I should share some major highlights of the past couple of weeks!
MIALY BIRTHDAY!
For those of you who dont know, Mialy is my flatmate from Madagascar and she turned 25 on August 26.
Woke her up with breakfast and had a surprise party/dinner for her in a restaurant and then the major highlight of the evening... went to a Korean Kareoke club and sang and danced our hearts out! What a trip!
AIESECer in Fonterra
I started running with some colleagues during our lunchbreak at work and had just got back from one of such runs. A bit sweaty and feeling sticky, I had a T-shirt on that had "AIESEC" emblazoned on the front. I got into the elevator to go down to the showers below the building when this petite looking woman in the lift with me exclaimed, 'Oh AIESEC! I used to be in AIESEC'
I made the right noises and politely excused myself when it got to my stop and thought no more of it. I was scheduled to attend a presentation by the Fonterra Global Account Manager for Nestle (Nestle is the biggest customer Fonterra has) later in the day however and yep... you guessed it! The petite looking woman turned out to be giving the presentation.
As it turned out, she was on the MC in New Zealand some 10 years, is based in Amsterdam, gave AIESEC the original contact that has led to Fonterra taking 8 trainees and boy was she excited to hear that! She insisted she wanted to meet up with all the trainees on her next visit to Auckland.
SKY TELEVISION ON
Yes my flatmates and I finally suscribed to cable TV and now I can watch Premiersip games LIVE! Although... they come up early on Sunday mornings. But hey who cares?!!!

I am glad you are enjoying good old Kiwi hospitality. Try going for the 90 mile beach trust me, it is awesome and not that far from Auckland.
Ladi you always write all these things that make me go "awwww I really wish I was in Auckland" for a moment- and thanks for finishing this post with such a sweet remark. :)
... though I really have to ask: who was this lady you mentioned?
