ok... i'm trying to make myself to appreciate my 'exciting' life here...
but frankly, no matter how 'exciting' life is... i'm only enjoying half of it... another half i'm wondering off thinking abt how nice it would be if my loved ones were here to share it with me... be it my family, ming or frens in sg... i think i learnt to appreciate the times i have with them... no matter how simple or boring places we go... esp just walking ard cwp, sit down anywhere just for chit chat or just watching tv... i miss this simple life...
anw, since i'm here... i'll make full use of my time too... mb when i think back abt my study life in aussie... ya... i still got some excitements happening here... haha...
so after a few days of slacking at home... we went to the city on sun n healesville sanctuary on mon...

went to explore other side of city... instead of shoppin... we look for markets. haha... not those wet market tt sell fishes n meat but market that sells flowers, fruits, house ware n even some clothes... oh ya... not forgetting food! i had my favorite lamb curry there! hehe... that is South Melbourne Market...
after that went to The Esplanade market and Lunar Park at st kilda... The Esplanade market sells art n craft stuffs... some own design bags and accessories... kinda ex too... haha... so din get anything for myself... bought a customize bracelet with name on it for my fren's bday gift at $20...
as we walk along the market... we saw rainbow! haha... nice scenery huh... with sea and coconut trees... haha... anw, we went into Lunar Park... its the only theme park found in Melbourne... its like Escape in Singapore... but of coz it is better den Escape. haha... but its also design for kids... no thrilling rides... admission is fee... but per ride is at $7... and unlimited at $35... their roller coaster... scenic railway... is very retro sia... tracks are made from woods, and there is a staff STANDING in the middle of the train, PULLING BRAKE when the roller coaster goes down. haha... cool rite...

since we were there... we went to the beach... n watch the sun set... haha... pardon me but we saw an indian couple kissing from daylight to dusk... haha...

anw, after sunset we went back to the city for dinner... haha guess what... the only restaurant that opens after 7pm is this Chinese restaurant Chilli Padi... we went there be4, price WAS resonable... but this time we went... they increase their price... haha... after sitting down looking at the menu, we decided to leave... haha wun be coming back le ba... haha. end up we went to Hungry Jack's its actually Burger King... ya... what a day in the city... haha...
ytd... we went to one of the 3 zoo in Melbourne... Healesville sanctuary is slightly out of Melbourne... we took bus, train and bus again to get to that place... its more located at a small village place... no tall buildings or shopping centres... total journey abt 2 hrs? we woke up very early like 6.30 am ar! haha... anw... there we saw lots of wildlife animals in aussie... as usual... kangaroo and koala haha... and others like platypus, wombats (which looks like pig but with fur, haha), wallaby (small version of kangaroo), Tasmanian Devils (erm, look like big rats?) and the Birds show is spectacular, with birds flying low just above our heads!

thats Tassie Devils on the bottom left and Wallaby on the bottom right...
we went to visit the Wildlife Hospital too... saw the operation process they did on parrot and also saw a baby kangaroo in the nursery room!

for a moment makes my wanna to be a vet... but haiz... i din take up vet course so its impossible. anw... we were being attack by this stupid bird, pelicans! it really hates human huh? i was video-ing how this stupid bird wobble its flabby 'mouth' n it flap its wings n run towards me! n i even record the process of 'escaping' n screaming of us la! haha... very dumb...

haha, i guess tt is it for 'wildlife' experience... haha... it was sun set again while on the way back... on the bus... i saw sunset again... this time the background are mountains and grass... its a nice scenery too... but i lazy to take out my cam... haha... and fall aslp while enjoying the scenery...
everytime i'm at home... i'll dl movies to watch... so far i've watched fifth element, face off, and series of american pie. oh ya... did i mention that i went to watch a movie Knocked up? haha, its a funny show... not bad for laughter... haha...
now left FEW days before i know my results which is on Fri the 13th. how gd is tt? haha... i guess that's all folks!
