The real Grandma

It was a very long while since the last time a camera appeared to capture a moment of my grandma and me together...... She was shy, but happy and excited abt the camera showing up...

AH MAH! I LOVE YOU!!!

He's just not that into you!

After much persistence and insistence of a certain friend, I finally picked up this book and read it; Cos she wouldn’t take it back until I had done so… I gave up and gave in. I really not interested in the book cos, I think I know what is in it when I heard the things she described to me. But I do think it’s a book that u can keep in your bookshelf and read it again some other time, or a much much later time.

I finished the book in less than 2 hrs, in MacDonald’s over a very late meal. As expected, the write-in entries and the replies by the Greg (male author) were spot-on. However, I did enjoy the honest sarcastic humor of the male author. And I can really feel the exasperations of Liz (the female author) who is in a “love and hate” relationship with this co-worker of hers. kekeke But I do think the “ I think I get it” entries are pretty crap. The work exercises are what I call “AMUSING” I guess the funniest part is the “Things you should have learnt in this chapter…” I can really imagine Greg saying those bulleted points

* GRIN*

Got some after thoughts of the book,
but kana slammed with work to do.

Everyone take 5 now, I brb!!!

SO UNGLAM!!!

DIESEL ALL THE WAY!

Many thanks for the nice watch to u and you...

But even more thanks to you, who pestered me and dragged your tired self to go see and pick it out with me. Lagi more thank you for staying awake staying alive staying long sufferingly at my indecisiciveness.

Think i am really very unused to standing by and doing nothing by watch type of person, a strange awkward feeling simply overwhelms me...... its more like helplessness bah......

In short... thanks you very much. :)

Love is worth fighting for

Love is not a place, to come and go as we please,                           it is a house we enter in, and then commit to never leave......

Love is a shelter in a raging storm;                                            Love is peace in a middle of a war,                                              and if we try to leave, may God send angels to guard the door.      No, love is NOT a fight!                                                                But its something worth fighting for.

I will fight for you!

Would you fight for me?

It’s worth fighting for.

OH WHAT BIG CAR THAT IS!!!

The Sky

 

。 。 。 。 。 。

 

 

我向往的蓝天。。。。。。

BIG CAR DAY!!!

The Toyota Vios rental was recalled for servicing by the car rental company for a day, and this was the nice replacement. Cool car with great height and view for controls, but vehicle too heavy for handling. Fuel consumption is another issue for economical sense.

Donuts

Hogs Breathe Cafe Saloon & Grill (CHIJIMES)

DO IT!!!

A bell is not a bell till you ring it,
A song is not a song till you sing it,
Love is not there to stay till you give it away!

The Lively Center of Attention

Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical, and always interesting; someone who's constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not one to let it go to their head. They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who'll always cheer them up and help them out.

OH! REALLY?!!

High EQ

You're very careful with words, knows about everything that is to be supposedly kept from you and tends to be able to judge whether someone is genuine about something. One thing to note is that you tend to be judgmental of people who comes for you - not everyone has an agenda to use you, maybe some just wanted to spend quality time with a great friend like you. Furthermore, I believe that someone like you will be compassionate and does not hurt people intentionally, as you can easily feel others' emotions. Piece of advice for you: Learn to let go/talk away the negative emotions you will accumulated from others because it will caused you to be overly depressed about reality. But hey...with such high EQ, there's a high chance that you will suceed above others in life - if you manage them well enough that is. =DDD

Utopia City's House of Dreams

  

赶不走的不速之客?

不知道你是否和我一样？

不时都会有一位不速之客来探访，
虽然他很积极，时时刻刻都在观察
看你是否有朋友陪伴，若没有的话
他会第一时间来探访， 来作伴
但是， 他一进门就迟迟不走

他的名字叫寂寞。

有人告诉我，一山不能藏二虎
只要有末位朋友在，他就无法待久
甚至不能来探访了

来介绍： 他姓 生命 ， 名 意义 = 生命的意义。

他有个很好的兄弟，也会一同到来，
他姓 生命 ， 名 寄托 = 生活的寄托。
有了两位， 寂寞应该没有办法再来造访
即使他来了，你也忙得没法理会他

Constants

Its been like forever since i sought for a constant for me life...
But it seemed like forever disappointing.

I been told to gave up looking cos it i wont find any;

I been told to look for it in my academic aspect,
but found that the journey stops at a degree... (Cos i no head damage to do Perm-Head_Damages).

Then someone said it can be found in a relationships,
be it friends or BGR...
but its not true, cos we are all human,
like myself they change too...
Ppl change in big ans small ways of their own.
Relationships do change, peoples' likes & dislike change,
their interest change, their passion change,
even their perception changes.

Another said that constant in the career u are in,
but its a never ending path... its forever changing,
and there is no absolute trust u can give to the company,
cos all have to be true to their own stand and not yr stands.

Finally, i asked God...
"What is constant in my life... other than the unchanging you?"
"What if i hadnt had you, wat would i have?"
"The uncertainty is like the waves of seas that hit the shores tirelessly each day,
who can withstand such toil?!!"

"Only change is constant in this world, and for the ppl who have yet to believe in me.
Even for you, yr interests and passion and priorities are ever changing, how can u ask for constant in other ppl? Build upon Jesus the cornerstone, in him you find that constant love and strength you need."

My conclusion is i have 2 such constants:
1. Thank God for God! Can only hang on to him like hanging for my dear life in a rushing river.
2. Change is my constant!

天亮了

天亮了天亮了
地球又转一圈了
世界还活生生的存在着
还活着没想到我还活着

穿越一场海啸什么滋味
我终于亲身体会天崩地裂
筋疲力尽灵魂不在身体里面
然而万岁万岁终于和你有个了结

你一边我一边
我们的世界最好别再重叠
也别再回想那个太长太长的昨天
太多爱太多泪别再这样浪费

天亮了天亮了地球又转一圈了
既然我还幸运的活着
当然要全力以赴去快乐
天亮了天亮了世界还是好好的
什么痛都是更渺小的
看太阳不是又升起来了

结束一段感情当然不像
瞒个假那么方便太多时间
太多随便堆在回忆那间房间
但是忍耐一定不去碰它就不危险

你没变我没变
我们到最后才能懂这一点
人活着不就为了实现一个个心愿
好可惜我和你许了不同的愿

天亮了天亮了地球又转一圈了
既然我还幸运的活着
当然要全力以赴去快乐
天亮了天亮了世界还是好好的
什么痛都是更渺小的
看太阳不是又升起来了

我的心是我的不会再给你了

我是我自己的我很快乐

612星球

满园玫瑰 我以为 找到我那一朵
认真爱了 却狠狠 刺伤我的双手
责备什麽人 也没有用
玫瑰都红 难免看错

望着天空 爱是风 活在童话里头
小王子说 有些事 流浪过才会懂
原来每颗心 都有个洞
找不到真爱 会一直寂寞

我但愿有一个人 在等我
在属於我的612星球
好让我 忍着痛 也愿意 往下走
不快乐至少 要有梦

一定会有一个人 在等我
无条件拥抱着我 的所有
想遇见 我还要 翻越 多少山丘
花别谢太快 请你等等我

擦干眼泪 一个人 漂流在这宇宙
小王子说 爱一定 开在某个角落
不想相爱的人那麽多
我会幸福吗 在什麽时候

 

我是火星人

嘴巴上明明是毒药
吻起来却像蜂蜜

掌心看着多么温柔
握起来就多锋利

是谁给我一个微笑
暗藏一万个陷阱

降落在这颗蓝色的星球
还真的需要勇气

像个孩子简单地呼吸
却找不到适合我的氧气

我是火星人快点放我回去

我学不会地球的规矩

承诺说成了笑话

感情当作看玩具

认真输给了游戏

请让我换一个星球定居

我是火星人快点赶我回去

我会坏了地球的规矩

原谅所有的欺骗

拆下所有的面具

管谁说可不可以

我非坚持捧着一颗真心去旅行

一个最温暖的拥抱
能释放多少暗器

一句最贴心的问候
转个弯就要人命

是谁借走我的夏天
还我一万个冬季

究竟在这颗蓝色的星球
流行什么样逻辑

像个孩子傻傻的相信
却没有谁能给我个证据

Strange Dreamz

Been having strange dreams lately... some which really puzzled me but all usually are forgotten in a quick while. Its those times where u wake up with a puzzling expression and if u try to reach for pen and paper, its forgotten almost instantly.

But there was this one that really caused an impression, a phrase which i think may sound scary now... It was pretty sad when i heard it in my dreams, almost heartbreaking bah...

Let's see how much of it i rem...

• strange things happening starts to think of supernatural stuffs like communicating with ppl from the future.
• then actual conversing with someone from the future; via writing on a notepad then responsive statements appearing on the same notepad thereafter.
• starts building something... like making a patch worked child's head... like Frankenstein type then blood all over my hand... then the head talked... a child/kid saying " Tell my mummy i died."
• we in danger, under some sort of attack like robbery or something... then got saved by the child spirit who take over the attacker's body .
• Then after some time, we sort of realized that the child was not a missing child who died, but it died becos the mother had abortion. Frantic efforts were made to keep this from the "child"....
• Then.... cannot rem.... then wake up le....
  

Now it really sounds eerie........

MAMA MIA - Nice! I like!

How she disappeared

Day by day, somehow, fragments of glass were secretly added to her meals... odourless, tasteless and colourless... A story of perfect revenge was set for the scene... The highlights of it was her feeding herself, dumb as she is, the cracking sounds and cuts in her mouth amazingly did not amount to an obvious suspicious alarm of her diet.

In the end... the obvious happened......

 

SHE BECAME TRANSPARENT!!!

CAST AWAY THE CAST!

 

CAST CAST BYE BYE

BYE BYE CAST CAST

FROM NEXT TUESDAY, U SHALL DISAPPEAR FROM MY LIFE ALTOGETHER..... AND NV TO RETURN!

Look @ all the cowboyz

Which is better???

你的黄舒骏。。。的歌。。。。。。

因为实在太无聊了，所以小小地搜寻了一下；只找到这一首，有常常的独白。 这歌叫 “窗”， 有两个版本;  （ 一 ）专辑：未来的街头，（ 二 ）专辑：未央歌。

劉力揚 - 拍寫 Lyrics 歌詞

作詞：顏璽軒 作曲：Jerry.C

雨過後的天晴 灑向了綠蔭
我們跨上機車 穿梭台北旅行
101和白雲 曖昧著親近
聽微風的聲音 指尖想彈鋼琴

聊得來的原因 你也說不清
夜色主動降臨 理智開始微醺
摩天輪很煽情 滾動著星星
你的吻不小心 把友情變愛情

誰知道未來會是怎樣的風景
原諒我貪心 讓你也無法清醒

拍寫 愛沒準備好 迎接你溫柔的擁抱
還隱隱作痛的一顆心 提醒我愛是毒藥
拍寫 我也很困擾 雖然喜歡你的微笑
可我害怕付出了真心 卻什麼都得不到

漁人碼頭煙火 水面上開心
水底暗藏傷心 不想對外說明
朋友不必分手 戀人不一定
其實我很害怕 燦爛又得清醒

剛看的電影 解決很抒情
連路燈都相信 真愛總會來臨
但是我很想電影 畢竟是電影
親愛的有些事 我還不能答應

誰知道未來會是怎樣的風景
原諒我貪心 讓你也無法清醒

拍寫 愛沒準備好 迎接你溫柔的擁抱
還隱隱作痛的一顆心 提醒我愛是毒藥
拍寫 我也很困擾 雖然喜歡你的微笑
可我害怕付出了真心 卻什麼都得不到

拍寫 愛還沒準備好
暫時無法來迎接你溫柔的擁抱
拍寫 我自己也很困擾
雖然很喜歡你天真燦爛的微笑

拍寫 愛沒準備好 迎接你溫柔的擁抱
還隱隱作痛的一顆心 提醒我愛是毒藥
拍寫 我也很困擾 雖然喜歡你的微笑
可我害怕付出了真心 卻什麼都得不到

WANTED - R U in CONTROL?!!

 

I have been wanting to catch this movie for a long time, it was one of those pre-movie adverts that was shown while waiting for the actual movie to be screened in the cinema. Honest truth, the action caught my eyes, so did all the slick moves and... not forgetting Angelina Jolie. :)

Finally caught it, i think its great... the story, the humour, i really enjoyed it... not going to say more, u shld really jus go catch the show. :)

 

WANTED (Writeup: Courtesy of Cathay Movies Online)

Rating: NC16
Consumer Advice: Violence & Some Sexual Scenes
Genre: Fantasy-Thriller
Language: English with Chinese subtitles
Director: Timur Bekmambetov
Cast: Morgan Freeman, James McAvoy, Thomas Kretschmann, Terence Stamp and Angelina Jolie 

Based upon Mark Millar’s explosive graphic novel series and helmed by stunning visualist director Timur Bekmambetov—creator of the most successful Russian film franchise in history, the Night Watch series—Wanted tells the tale of one apathetic nobody’s transformation into an unparalleled enforcer of justice.  In 2008, the world will be introduced to a hero for a new generation: Wesley Gibson.

25-year-old Wes (James McAvoy) was the most disaffected, cube-dwelling drone the planet had ever known.  His boss chewed him out hourly, his girlfriend ignored him routinely and his life plodded on interminably.  Everyone was certain this disengaged slacker would amount to nothing.  There was little else for Wes to do but wile away the days and die in his slow, clock-punching rut.

Until he met a woman named Fox (Angelina Jolie).

After his estranged father is murdered, the deadly sexy Fox recruits Wes into the Fraternity, a secret society that trains Wes to avenge his dad’s death by unlocking his dormant powers.  As she teaches him how to develop lightning-quick reflexes and phenomenal agility, Wes discovers this team lives by an ancient, unbreakable code: carry out the death orders given by fate itself.

With wickedly brilliant tutors—including the Fraternity’s enigmatic leader, Sloan (Morgan Freeman)—Wes grows to enjoy all the strength he ever wanted.  But, slowly, he begins to realize there is more to his dangerous associates than meets the eye.  And as he wavers between newfound heroism and vengeance, Wes will come to learn what no one could ever teach him: he alone controls his destiny

陪你等天亮

 

BEST FRENS

 

What's Yr blood type???

Its Sunday!

Ok.... its sunday now.... i shall stop being cranky... stop being difficult... stop worrying... even if its killing me.

Sleepless

Its been a pretty long time since i cant get to sleep... Usually on a bz schedule these days, i shld be sound asleep by 9pm or at least 11pm bah... But now i am sick from tossing and turning in bed...

Its either the coffee, or you or my work lor..... why i backside itchy... not i regret but i really put myself in a difficult situation... sigh... then work suddenly pop up in my mind... wat a fantastic human system.... automatic work popup in mind when confronted with something you are at loss in wat to do....

Ah.... headache... argh.................................................

 

 

 

 

I cant sleep!!! I cant breathe!!! ARGH!!! ALL UR FAULT!!!!

There is hope for this world!

I realli got to correct myself... the usual humorous me was too straight and actually took what she said seriously...

i met up with my fren finally, i promptly contacted my fren to meet up so as to pass her the belated red packet. When we finally met, the first thing she actually said was: "So lunch coffee???" i was caught off guard but these words but thank God i din "HUH" out loud.

I had to turn her down as i was with my family, who were already upset for waiting for me as i attending church service and them shopping.

But i am happy... happy that it wasnt like the previous post!

The not so good + the good = i think i am fine now day

 

The not so good:

My fren who eagerly wanted to meet me up after work recently, give me a surprise... she suddenly hi me and ask me to meet her on the same evening... to catch up... so she said...

I happily told my fren how touched i was to hear her remembering wat a "wet time" i had at her wedding luncheon.... (i'll save that story for the time being...)

Then i realised tdy tat she merely wanted to get the red packet which i din manage to pass to her on tat wedding luncheon... (i already say i tell u that story another time...)

i am sad... very  very very sad... not becos she hurt my feelings, but becos ..... yah she hurt my feelings... i'm a jelyfishy k, i'm FRAGILE!

 

The good:

I sent 2 postcards to 2 of my frens form Sydney, becos i know they were sort of in their lull times rite now... and one of them "feedback" to me that she was thrilled and she tear-ed (流泪) as she told me how she cried when she saw the postcard. Cos she realized that i had her on my heart even as i went awy for holiday. Thus, she brought it everywhere with her, showing it off to her colleagues and frens.... i'm really speechless... But it made my day becos it made her day betta.

(I'm gonna mail her a towel next time!)

 

Well, it out of my system now... for good... for every 1 smile or even the sound of it, it erases the sadness out of my memories...

For memories that i cannot erase, i jus leave them aside... there is nothing i can do abt now, maybe it will resolve later when the time comes... though it may hurt more then.

Innovative delivery method

A family in the Southern Province of China, were puzzled when the coffin of their dead grandmother arrived from the States. It was sent by one of the daughters. The dead body was so tightly squeezed inside the coffin, with no space left in it! When they opened the lid, they found a letter on top; which read as follows:

Dear Cousins, I am sending Ah-ma body to you since it was her wish that she should be cremated in the compound of our ancestral home in Tung Shin. Sorry, I could not come along as all of my paid leaves are consumed. You will find inside the coffin, under Ah-ma's body, 12 cans of Yohmeitsu, 10 packets of Swiss chocolates and packets of Chinatown Lap Cheong.

Please divide these among all of you. On Ah-ma's feet you will find a new pair of Nike Air shoes (size 10) for Ah boy. Also, there are 2 pairs of shoes for Ah Mei's and Ah Lien's sons. Hope the sizes are correct.

Ah-ma is wearing 6 CK T-Shirts. The large size is for Ah Bak and the others are for my nephews. Just distribute them among yourselves. The 2 new Armani Jeans that Ah-ma is wearing are for the boys.

The Rolex watch that Lee Ah Bai wanted is on Ahma's left wrist. Kiasu Aunty Pei Pei , Ahma is wearing the Tiffany necklace, earrings and ring that you asked for. Please take them. The 6 white Polo cotton socks that Ah ma is wearing must be divided among my teenage cousins.

Let me know what else you need as Ah Kong also not feeling well nowadays. I can send all required things when our Ah Kong goes back too...

Sydney Vacation Day 03 ~ last day

 

Well, tot i'll drop the conventional way of blogging down my days where i could "breathe"... the fishy is losing her "jely"; so jus a summarizing post for the rest of the trip.... which is.... WOAH! a whopping 7 days!!!

Eeks! i din realize tat man!... Sounds long lah, but it felt like it was a moment ago...

Let's see wat i can use from my diary...

 

Sydney Vacation Day 03: 16th June 2008, Monday

MONDAY was COTTON ON day, my dear travelling mate finally got round to spending some Oz dollars.

Then next was to head 4 Chinatown, but decided to stop 4 late lunch @ Naughty Chef 4 my fav noodles called PHO...

Din really noe wher 2 go, so Darling Harbour we went. Walked really far, really really really far.... Then saw someone tat looked like May Phua in e visitors center.

After e short rest, finally saw e harbour & a one legged bird... Steady looking despite its handicap.

Alittle torn abt goin 2 e Wildlife "Park", really wanted 2 go in... But still cannot tahan those reppies!

Nothing much 2 do, fren was bored... Poor gal, i've gt no clue how 2 make her day... I'm simply 2 boring a person 4 her *sigh*

Hunter Valley here we come!

Tmw will be a BETTER DAY!

 

Sydney Vacation Day 04: 17th June 2008, Tuesday

Wakey wakey, rise & shine!

The bus waits 4 no man... Off we go 2 catch e 8.15am bus (may I remind u tat its 6.15am in Sg hrs)

2 grumpies boards e bus in e most grumpy manner possible... in silence. It lasted till arrival @ e HV day tour meeting pt. The bloody brilliant me 4got e vouchers, but they let us go along anyway... We had 2 fork out extra cash 4 lunch :(  as I 4got our paperwork aka lunch vouchers.

A fab crowd of 7 was our day tour, with visitations to 4 wineries, and a cheese place. Tasting was catered by all e wineries we visited. My trusty travel mate & myself were intoxicated!!! And i do mean literately.

Loved e grp: Shelley was really nice, David was frenly, Bryan was REALLY entertaining (and boy did he really ENTERTAINED our dear teacher), Louise & Alex were calm & contained... Lastly, there was US! We had FUN :)

Alittle "argh" tat we din opt 2 stay one nite ther, but its still great fun. :)

 

Sydney Vacation Day 05: 18th June 2008, Wednesday

Finally e day... Our day one for Bienale Sydney 2008... Finally a day with OBJECTIVE! OH YEAH! Can't help but b excited ^_^

Armed with a heavy breakfast of fruit & walnut bread with sides of cheese fruit stew, big bowl of cereals, an tomato spinach & mint omelette and ending it all w a homebrewed latte... Compliments of e Number 71 B&B :)

Its off 2 MCA-Museum of Contemporary Arts! Some of e stuffs r quite interesting, but I only rem a few...

1. Argentina artist's work in 1962 or 1965; He "nailed" a christ like figure onto a US fighter plane... How sarcastic!

2. A photo was displayed w 2 glasses, both had same amount of water, interesting thing was e water lvl were slanting in opposite directions. He did it by spinning e table w glasses of water. Quite ingenious I must say.

3. ''I CAN'T WORK LIKE THIS!" An installation w dented nails on e wall, plenty of nails on e ND w an opened toolbox & hammer. Cool.

4. Foam pipes pumps out tubes, crafted in shape-like syringes. Artist wanted 2 show authorial pressured environment. Something tat's alive, e foam pumps works in cycles ... As would a water fountain. Can look @ tis 4 long time.

5. Film works; Started w themes on joyous celebrations of crowning royalty, w scenes from many diff movies, then assassination of e monarch figure. Then e word REVOLUTION is splated over e screen.Themes of shock, fear and panic... Ending w despair. Interesting & abit funny. But question remains, if revolution's ending is w despair, not as joyous in e monarchy beginning, wat gd is revolution?

6. Horse hung high... alot to say but now dunno how to put in words....

7. Shapes in contours cut out into 3d, hanging in e air... dunno how to effectively describe but it was the shadows of these installations that caught my eyes instead.

8. Installation w a long pole, one end hangs industrial spot light & e other w a fan. Its left 2 spin or move in any manner it wants... Exploration of air & light as an art medium; 2 ends in parallel, as moon would 2 a planet.

Etc... Etc... Etc...

 

Sydney Vacation Day 06: 19th June 2008, Thursday

No gd, no gd... E nitemare has barely gone by and morning came too quickly. The mention of wine not only irks me, but scares me... The episodes tat follows are e terrible smell and e worst gastric ever.

Cockatoo Island was the obvious choice when e Manly Ferry was not included in our 1 wk transport pass.

Saw some more art works, but did not catch all.

But a certain stranger did caught our attention, and many others too. She was alone and alittle too friendly, but not to us. Her behaviour led my mind to many thoughts... i'm a meow, of cos i'm curious why she like tat and wat made her ticked the way she did and etc.... not much conclusion though, but the impression of her stayed with me... i'll blog on if i arrive at any conclusion @ all in the near future of 5-10yrs.... *grin*

Then its finally the last performance @ SOH 2 view was titled " Just becos everything is different doesn't mean everything has changed " It was really one of e highlights of tis trip. We approach e performance w no clue, except w e writeup from website. We were glad 2 find tat it was a standup comedy act by a man claiming tat he is Bruce Lenny, which we find it suspicious as he look alittle too young 2 be the man he claimed 2b.

It was a well spent evening!

 

Sydney Vacation Day 07: 20th June 2008, Friday

Something wrong with my travelling fren tdy, dunno why she say she dun wan breakfast... maybe tired, but it disturbed me.

When dwn for breakfast, asked for scrambled eggs under ystd recommendations... quite shiok! Bacon & scrambled eggs is a heavenly combination, esp when the bacon is SO BIG & CRISPY... and i appreciate it when our nice breakfast lady boss does nice presentation for the foodie.

We went to UNSW to make enquiries on admission and pre-requisition for their course, and etc etc etc... grab some brochures and head for Gallery of NSW for more Bienale viewing!

The place is huge, as before, interesting stuffs came up and very soon there was ART OVERLOAD! The light and interesting start point were the chalk drawings on the gallery walls and as i went in, there were marker drawings on glass windows at a corner. These drawings were abt current affairs, on how the artist  see things on various topics. Simple and humorous, very easy to understand... as if u were reading a comic stripe.

Another work that came across with a deep impression is a super dark room, where a short film was showed with super woofer sound accompaniment. When we entered, was pitch dark, and i cant even see the five fingers of my hand when i had it stretched before me. It was scary, ppl bumping into ppl and everyone stepping on each other. We decided to sit down and stay put, jus to see wat is up... finally it all came to light... It was a video showing someone diving into water... all the mysterious and curious tots dropped to "WOW LAU!" for me... kekekeke i no arty mah... cannot make simpler and less scary meh....

Then it was the ZOHAN nite, a comedy we been eyeing to watch, hoping to experience the Sydney cinema viewing. The place is ok, but my travelling mate says we complained alot, the moment we enter we complain le... gt alot meh? hmm.....

Anyway, she found the movie ok only... i guess disappointed was more the word for her? I found the movie to be very "qin qie", and i did enjoyed it thoroughly. My guess is probably i can identify with the movie.... maybe bah...

 

Sydney Vacation Day 08: 21st June 2008, Saturday

Lady Boss was not kidding man! She say change bed, i tot she wanna change bedsheet again or she forget she also had it change the day before... But she really wanna CHANGE BED for us. *faint*

Time for lunchie with teacher, this time is 2 TNS teacher and a ex TNS student luncheon. The last time round the poor teacher was famished while waiting for us, this time we resolute not to let her go hungry. Nice hot Chinese lunch of Porridge, tempura styled calamari, claypot beancurd and dough fritters! Hot meals are my fav in winter times!

Then we parted with her to go Newtown! Its a place strongly recommended by Lady Boss. It was an area with shophouses rather than shopping centers, many shops to buy from and many cafes & eateries. Spotted a small place gathered with ppl, found a bunch of young ppl making artworks out of cardboards with signs asking for donations. How appropriate it was to have this scene under a full wall painting with words "I HAVE A DREAM". This scene invoked flood gates of tots for both of us i guess...

Paddington's Max Brenner was a disappointment, wat i had seen previously was alot more awwwwwwwwwwwww-ing; sorry to see my fren go "huh ah...ok lor"

Sydney Vacation Day 09: 22nd June 2008, Sunday aka LAST DAY

Day started with shopping @ shop nearby while waiting for teacher, then continued with shopping @ Bondi Market @ Bondi Beach. Saw a stall selling his art pieces, they are really very nice to putting up in homes. But he declined my request to take pics of it for nicole to see... She did ask me 2 buy such paintings for her hse if i saw any. Darn! i shld have asked hw much, if affordable i shld have bought for her! ARGH!

In celebration or rather making ourselves feel better that we were due to leave in hours, we treated ourselves to a bottle of nice champagne and a full rack pork ribs. Yummy... Our table is 3 Asians share a full rack, the other table is each non-Asian a serving of half rack ribs!

Finally, our last stop for shopping... MAMBO! My dear fren gone crazy when she saw the sale price tags... all the AUD$5 and AUD$10 made her lose her mind... it unleashed the green hulk monster in her... no she does not need anger mgmt like the movie, she is jus too repressed from her shopping. And it can no longer be contained on the last day. *GRIN*

Then we went back late, and the called cab went away. Thank God for a prayer answering God, else dunno where to find cab man!

 

We're all sad to leave for airport and board the plane home. This was, for me, just a trip to get away and breathe... but some more happened...... and it stirred the waters for re-structuring.

Sydney Day 02

In the land of legendary seafood world, how can i not have a SEAFOOD LUNCH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fresh Oysters YUM!!!
Cheese baked lobster was great!!
and MORE MORE MORE ...
All i can say is FABULOUS LUNCH!!!!

Food pretty much occupied all my impression of the day until someone commented that i was on retail therapy....

Erm... i am not lah, i jus felt like spending money and getting something i feel justifiable for mah....

Let try to recall wat i bought...
Nice winter boots, new wind proof and cozy jacket... with a nice big hood, sports like pants where i can zip it into bermudas, a pair of shades with red frame, cocoa butter with peppermint lip balm.... think thats abt it....

Sydney Vacation Day 01

It happened again, just before holiday fall sick...
Had to see a doc on the day of departure for syd...

Then we flew... it was A380... i was kinda disappointed after all the big huha... it seems pretty much the same as the other new aircraft... its nice but not something tat fab... its a norm nice... bleah....

With all the necessary clothings, we were well protected from the cold... all until our carelessness when we took a nap in our nice lovely B&B accomo..... We were all cold and frozen after an hr's nap.... ah! Oh yah.... the B&B really nice... very cozy, its actually the same feeling i had when i was in UK the last time round...

I strongly B&B for any vacations in UK, Aussie, Taiwan etc... cos these places are more popuplar with such accomo and are fairly safe. This B&B i'm in is called Number 71, and its really a wow wow wow place when u first step in and a even more wow @ their breakfast! We shld have something like tat in Sg...
