52 weeks & a whole lot of words



Tomorrow will be the first of  many days devoted to reading, writing, and researching. I look forward to this new journey, full of challenges, defeats probably, a lot of fun, and hopefully some helpful results.Tomorrow a thesis commences!

Visa Expiry: Indefinite














I am a NZ resident!!!
I'm looking for the right words to describe what that feels like, but it is not so easy. Joy, relief, excitement!!

Thanks guys!!! Now, for the venture ahead!




I redefined this blog one month ago in order to make it the space where I document my visa application history. I had expected it to be a much longer ordeal, because of our experience back in the motherland. Instead it was a super sweet experience! Kia pai mai hoki, Kirikiriroa!!! We are so happy. Thanks to everyone who has helped support our application in some way or form. You are very well appreciated and loved! From here, the blog must perhaps again be redefined. Perhaps as we venture into the next chapter of our international life, there will be more stories to tell? :-)

'A' for 'honours!'

... or should I say: "'A' for 'After all that'..." For while it is ENOURMOUSLY SWEET to finally receive the final grade as an honours student, I have no doubt that its sweetness is complemented and brought out by the bitter backdrop that came before it. This Sunday we celebrated the completion of a paper that should have taken less than 3 months to complete, but came to take nearly 3 years to defeat!! Thanks everyone, for this took a whole army to get done! :-)
