Skyfire. Dinner. Random spastic pictures.Melbourne trip.

This entry is so long overdueeeeee. Gosh. I think even I forgot the events. So many stuff and I'm so lazy to write. haha! We'll just let the pictures so the talking yeh. =)

Sky fire

Set out and had a really long walk to the lake where the fireworks was meant to be displayed. It was like an half hour walk. The estimated distance that we combed was maybe around 5km? Just to get to the place to watch the fireworks. But the fireworks were spectacular. 15 minutes of pure indulgence in bright sparks and lovely colours. Made the walk worthwhile.

look look! i have 2 pimples on my cheeks lah. irritating. and its left and right some more. haha


as usual, min and me.

fireworks. wee!!!

Dumb dumb pictures were taken on our way back after the fireworks. Me, min and yi got so bored and we started playing around! But it was so fun! I am strong enough to piggyback both min and yi lah. But min was too scared to let me carry her. Haha!


Stretchhhhhhhhh.


such unglam picture.


min with her blurblur face.


funny faces.


To infinity and beyond.

light sticks as tiara.

I know we are very boliao. haha! but what ultimately matters is that we were all very happy! Was laughing all the way back to the hall.

Dinner with yi.

Had dinner with yi and his brother. Dress up dress up! Cause he said the brother gonna take us to some expensive restaurant. Lol! but i forgot to take pictures of the food. All I remembered was me camwhoring all the way. Wahaha! But I had this chicken with avocado which was damn nice lah. Creamy and smooth. I heart! Although the place was reputed for its steak, I felt that I didn't make the wrong choice. The chicken was heavenly. Cooked to the correct texture and the juice could all ooze out. Yummy! I wanna go there again!


Me me and me.


Acting cute and all.

There's such a big difference with makeup and without makeup for me. Totally fugly without it lah. Sometimes I just wished I could look pretty even without makeup. Its so tiring sometimes to dress up although I do like it. I'm just vain but lazy. Lol!


Melbourne trip

Went with min and yi to Melbourne. Hanyi and brandy were supposed to come with us but due to last minute complications they had to join the school tour which was going on a later date. So we 3 venture out to Melbourne by ourselves. Woke up at 4 am in the morning to prepare for the 6.50 am flight to Melbourne. Melbourne was pretty fun except that we booked the backpackers too late resulting in us having to stay at Spencer hotel which was pretty distant from the city central. We wanted Taylors on A'beckett initially as it was goot and cheap. However, by the time we called them which was on a thursday and we are leaving on the Sunday, they were fully booked. Had to search for a new roof over our head! Although Spencer was a little rundown but it was much better than some of the hostel that our Ursies stayed in. Plus the people there were really friendly and nice. So yep! That's a plus point! From Spencer hotel we had to walk like 20 mins to get to the city central where all the shopping is. Min, Yi and yours truly are all pretty bad map readers which made us walking around in circles quite a few times. Lol. We got lost in the city too cause we didn't know which way to go.

Day 1
We went Victoria market on the first day which is the most famous fresh food market in Melbourne. It sells tons of stuff from clothing to shoes to plants to pizzas to pasta to sweets to accessories to you get the idea.


Victoria market.



Tim tam galore!


Camel camel!

Saw a camel along our shopping trip. Went to take a picture with it immediately. Lol!


Woot! Picture with the camel! I don't think I've seen a camel so up close before yet.

Went some city exploring after that. But sadly, as it was Easter Day, all the shops were CLOSED! Which means we wasted a day in Melbourne because we can't do anything!!!! SHITT! Saw tons of nice buildings along the way though.


Aren't the buildings nice? It looks so ancient. Make you feel as if its the 19th century or something.


Dancing queen!

Me and yi posing. Haha. I forced him to let me put this picture up. He hates hates hates it. He cringes everytime he sees it lah. Lol!


There's guys toilet along the road. But the smell is unbearble lah.


Scary.


Looks like a jail door.


State library of Victoria.


Posing outside the state library.

Dinner was at SHARK FIN Inn which is a pretty good restaurant. Yummy food! Its located in Chinatown. Yep! There's one chinatown in Melbourne. Sells lots of goot Chinese and Japanese food!

Chinatown of Melbourne.

Although its just a small stretch of road, you feel surprisingly at home because you see tons of Chinese restaurants along the road.



We had pork ribs, pigeon, hot and sour soup, prawn dumpling soup, special fried rice and sweet and sour fish. Hungrieeee.


Look at the amount of awards it got.


Outside the Shark Fin Inn. Goot goot!

Went for a walk around the Casino after dinner. Still got many pictures not up yet. Post them up soon! Will talk more about the Casino and Grecco with
its delicious cake later.
