09/09/11 - RWC Opening was AMAZING. Enough said. So proud of NZ.
I can't believe mocks were only two days ago. I feel like I've done so much after that.
On Friday, it was the opening of the Rugby World Cup. At first I wasn't that keen on going, but then I thought, might as well, mocks are over.
I'm actually really glad I went. Auckland was so alive. I have never seen so many people supporting for one's country. Everywhere I looked there was a Tongan flag.
Quote from William: "Thought I was in Tonga for a moment."

Overall, it was a fun night. I watched my first ever rugby game on the big screen. I was never into sports but the atmosphere was so lively, I couldn't help but get into the game also.
There were some girls behind us rooting for Tonga - "Thats ma husband, thats ma uncle, oh and that big guy right there, thats ma daddyyy." HAHA.
Yeah, glad I went.
10/09/11 - Auckland Art Gallery
The Auckland Art Gallery opened around last last week. I saw it when I was walking past to go study. I REEEALLLY wanted to go in but I resisted temptation and went and studied like the good girl I am :)
So yesterday, the first official day of freedom, I went to the Art Gallery.
We were there for around 2 hours, and although we went to every room in the gallery, I don't feel like I saw everything. I will definitely go back again some other time to look at everything more closely.
