watch the colours burn

Finally, the fireworks video I took during the NDP2012 this year...

=/

What happened to my smiles?


My thoughts are all so negative lately. I need to cheer up and find happiness again. Easy to say hard to do.

"Let God Love You"

Easy to say, hard to do.

Day 6-9 Australia. LOL (realised I drafted it but never posted it)

Day 6

We went to Victoria Market, had an awesome breakfast and we went to the Sydney Aquarium then after that we left for the airport to fly back to Sydney!

 

(this picture reminded me of the socially awkward penguin meme)

Took a cab from Gordon station back to our apartment cause of our luggages.

Day 7

Took a trip to woolsworth, then to chatswood where we we mainly walked around, ate and visited target! Thats where I got kinda crazy and went SHOPPING!!! =) =) We bought some ingredients for our curry that we were planned to cook during our stay. It was mainly a chillax day cause we were still recovering from our Melbourne escapade!

Day 8

 

I went to wander the mall in chatswood once again and spent the entire day shopping at target and a few other shops =X

(I really miss shopping at target!)

 

Then me and ali went to buy chicken cause we were cooking curry! But we forgot to buy the potatoes -___- Fail. HAHAHAH so we had chicken curry w/o potatoes. I think we did not bad! considering we were in a foreign kitchen with no familiar utensils! LOOOL.

Day 9

We went to Holy family church this time for mass and I tell u it was a much better experience than the week before but something very dramatic happened during mass. An elderly man fainted during mass and there was a period of time where the priest just sat there and looked at the guy. Then after calling the ambulance and all, he continued the mass and during the Our Father, the paramedics came and carried the poor man out. After that we went to Gareth's house where we met his parrot and his dog Cosmo. Cosmo was really sweet =) Then we went to meet Gareth's friend at his office. LOL Tao-paoed lunch there. HAHA I ate Salmon and Avacado Sushi! Avacado was srsly dam cheap in Aussy!!

Then we went back to the house and finished our left over curry and i ate instant noodles. LOOOL

Ok anw I give up blogging about Australia alrdy! LOL

Who am I?

Some inner part of me is really girly,
I love watching manicure, makeup tutorials.
I love owning accessories even though I don't wear them.
I love buying makeup even though I rarely put on any.

I love alone time, I love painting, drawing, playing the keyboard and taking pictures.

I really regret not joining the photography club or something during my TP days or dance.



Haven't really blogged about Australia after all.
But I uploaded most of the pictures on fb. =)

Australia trip PART TWO- Day 3-5

Okay! Continuing my post about Australia! =)

Day 3

*Drumroll* We OVERSLEPT!

Thank God Gareth rushed up to the airport and we managed to catch our flight to Melbourne. =O

As we took a super early flight, managed to capture this awesome picture of God's creation!

So we arrived in melbourne and then we took an airport shuttle to Melbourne CBD area, we stayed at hayward lane, next to latrobe street at another apartment, our host, Sharon(not sure of the spelling) was really nice and welcoming. She had a really cute dog to boot! The Dog's name is Roger if I dun remember wrongly.

The day was spent walking around the melbourne CBD area and just buying souvenirs!

 

Greeted with shops filled with sinful treats...

We fell prey to one of these shops and We ate some horrible tasting cheesecake that set us back by 9AUD!

 Saw this outside an Anglican Church, found it really interesting as usually Christian Churches do not have cruxifixes. But they only have a cross in church.

One of the cool buildings we saw while walking around the CBD area =)

I still have no idea why the clocks are set to different times -__-

YAY we had our hotpot dinner in Chinatown! =)

Day 4

We took the Great ocean tour by Bunyip.

We saw many beaches of which I cannot differentiate from the many pictures I took -___-

 Taken while waiting for the bus to move!!!

 So begins the Great Ocean Road Tour!

 At one of the beaches... Really love the blue sky!

 =( signs of rain coming

Pretty Beach!!

Then we did some rainforest trek thing where we saw some flesh eating snail or something =/

 Our Lunch @ the lighthouse! =)

It was great till we got to the twelve apostles...

A picture of me and the twelve apostles -_-

A picture of the twelve apostles =)

 I was just feeling so lethargic and just feeling sian cause it was raining and it was a super long day. We spotted some wild koalas as well...

Day 5

We did the Philips Island Tour with Go West, awesome tour group and we had a great tour guide =) We visited quite a number of places and I really enjoyed myself this time round.

We went to the chocolate factory... (havent uploaded the pictures yet, will probably post to fb, all pictures in the blog posts are from my iphone. HAHAHA)

Picture taken outside de chocolate factory!

Koala Conservation center. Had such a hard time spotting these! So well camouflaged!

The thing with nature is it is so easy to just miss them!

Taken at the Nobbies.

Anw So we headed to the penguin parade....

WOW!

Armies of cute penguins waddling up in groups of forties... I almost died of cuteness overload.

Cause we weren't allowed to take photos of the penguins as the flash frightens them and will ruin their eyesight. I didnt take any pictures but here is a picture from the website -_-

I got super irritated and pissed off at two bunches of tourists, both PRCs and Indians (Not being racist here, they just happened to be who they are)

The groups of Indians kept shouting at the penguins and taking photos of them even when the ranger approached them twice! =/ Felt so sian for the penguins when they started shouting at them.

The PRCs kept pushing us and not listen to instructions from the rangers. =(

Anw then we headed back to Melbourne. =)

Anw, the tour that we booked with GoWest can be found here: http://www.gowest.com.au/our-tours/penguin-parade-day-tour

I really enjoyed the tour and if you are interested you can do your tour with them or something =)

To be continued! =)

Australia trip PART ONE- Day 1 & 2

Took a trip to Australia, Sydney and Melbourne for a total of 19 Days! So heres the post(s) on what we did in chronological order =) Breaking it up in different posts so as not to be too lenghty

Day 1

Arrived in Sydney in the morning super early in the morning around 7am and the trains at the airport were undergoing trackwork therefore we hadda commute by bus instead. It was a bit overwhelming at first but we managed to arrive at Gordon, the train station near the place we were staying at.

On the train!!

@ Gordon =)
Our host, Don, a super enthusiatic guy came to meet us and brought us back to the house. We rested and waited for Gareth to come over and bring us around =)

So we started off the trip with the northern beaches! First off was sydney harbour, Gareth drove us to a place where we had a great view of the Sydney Harbour Bridge! From there we caught a glimpse of Luna Park =)

It looks like a great place to picnic as well =)

Then we headed to Balmoral Beach to have some Fish and chips by the beach, it was literally an enid blyton dream come true as we sat on the cliff and ate our fish and chips. LOL we were harassed by some hungry seagulls.

the seagull that harassed us for FOOD!! tsk!

After lunch, we took a long drive to Palm Beach, Where I took seriously dam beautiful pictures of the beach!! And Climbed the rocks around the beach jumping from rock to rock =)

Check out the sky!!

Gorgeous Sea, beautiful sky and awesome rocks! =)

After that we headed back to our apartment!

Day 2

We had brunch at a cool Japanese place near townhall. It serves awesome donburis!! =)

(We didnt alight at townhall though, we walked from wynyard)

We headed to the Rocks where there were having a market place and bought a few awesome stuff! saw a speed spray paint panter in real life as well!!

After that we strolled along Sydney harbour, walked past the opera house and went to the Royal botanic gardens where we sat down and watched and rested.

Grassy Area in the Botanic Gardens

I love the leaves!!

After that it was evening mass at St Mary Cathedral. I was so sleepy and it was so cold and I was so bundled up in soft clothes I almost fell asleep standing up!! =O

Plus it was pipe organ and there was only one person singing... Had such a hard time staying awake!! =/ The place was really nice and all though.

Grabbed Pizza on the way back to the house. IT WAS DELICIOUS!! =)

Best Pizza eaten ever!

Well, technically its a calzone but.... hahaha Whatever! =X

OK END OF DAY 1 and DAY 2!
