Tuesday / The Last Day

today is the last day here in sydney, woke up early to pack everything and got a cab to the city to catch up with them and we went for yum cha again before they head to Gold Coast and me and corrine back to Canberra.

The yumcha was disappointing. We went to yumcha at Marigold Restaurant (no siu mai??? are u kidding me?) and the waitresses there were freaking annoying as their customer service were shitty. They just showed stupid faces when serving...just hate that. People out there, just dont go to Marigold restaurant at Sydney near chinatown to have yumcha, go somewhere instead where you can get better service and better food, maybe better price.

after that, they went back to get their luggages and got a cab to the airport to head to gold coast and me and corrine took the bus back to canberra. 3 hours bus ride, watched series in my lappy and we're back to Canberra.

MoNdaY

so i woke up early today to catch a bus to the city and i walked to chinatown to meet they all and we went to have our brunch at a Vietnamese restaurant. i ordered a pork chop rice and they ordered 2 Pho (vietnamese noodle soup) and one chicken rice.

afterthat we went to Jurlique and kathy got herself a citrus flavour hand cream, now she smells like orange! anyway we went back to CEO karaoke again with their new friend, Serena from Charles Stuart too, there goes our nice 4 hours.

well we met up with anotha kathy & jingle's friend, from IACT and we went to MAMAK to have our dinner. Woah anotha nice malaysian food restaurant. We ordered four nasi lemak with curry chicken, curry fish and mutton, roti kaya, ayam goreng, CENDOL!!! (my fav dessert ever!!wooot yummy), teh tarik and limau ice. Though was a bit pricey but was worth...the sambal was soo HOT! and i sweat so much like i just wash my face. People were looking at me (my sweaty face) and wonder (why that malaysian boy is sweating that much). Seriously i almost sweat until my tears out, no joke! PEDASNYA!!!

well after the Hot dinner, we walked to QVB and saw some nice xmas lighting around george street (sydney town hall was beautiful) and the tall Swarovski Crystal Chrismas Tree inside Queen Victoria Building! gorgeous!

Anotha Blue Sunday

well today we woke up early and yujin brought to coogee beach (this beach was sooo beautiful!) to have fish 'n' chips (my favourite food ever!!!!) and that was awesome! with buk choi as side dish (i know thats pretty funny but thats one of their specialty...lol).

we went for beaches sight seeing after that, all beaches were full of people lying down to get tan? (and to get skin cancer?) though i got some tan as well...just love the sun! bondi beach was full of people because the weather was hot, everyone came up to surf and get tan.

well we went home after that because was going to rain (dark clouds appeared!), but...it didnt rain, not even a bit! but the weather was chilly and cool...love that! anyway we played his PS3...need for speed was soo fun (dragging was fabulous! incredicle burnout!)...he was tired and went for a arvo nap and i kept on playing, yea anotha game, Metal Gear Solid 4, zOMG, that game was sooooo tough! and i kept on dying (SNAKE!!!!!!!!!! *someone yelled snake when i got killed, because the main actor named Snake! and he died lol) instead of going further...coz of the kept-on-dying boredness, i changed to GTA4, so much better than getting killed. Killing someone was much more interesting that being killed hahaha...

tho i was lil bit tired but i didnt had any arvo nap, but went to watch some series.

after when he woke up, we went to his friend's, Kenneth, Melvin's house to have dinner...was happy to eat over there because kenneth seldom cook and that was his 3rd time cooking in this year (what an honour!), the dishes were yummy. Vege, Roast Pork, ShanTong Chicken, Chillie Prawns, Meat Balls...amazing!

later we went out for a drink at a cafe, and we ordered a choc mud cake and a berry cheesecake and i got myself a ice chocolate (one of the worse ice choc ive ever drank, was not choc at all)

sat-ur-day

ok today we woke up early in the morning at 8am to wait for a friend of kathy, Jingle, flew from melbourne to join us.

we then went to a taiwanese restaurant at chinatown to have breakfast, chinatown was a bit less crowded maybe because was too early for people to come out to have a walk.

after breaky we went to take a train to darling harbour and took a monorail back to city centre and walked to the oprah house, on the way to the oprah house, we saw this tall christmas tree.my new print ad for ANZ lol...
The weather was so hot and it made us tired, so we went to starbucks to rest for awhile before continuing any more walk. (and i got myself a new Toffee Frappucino)

anyway we went to the rock for the market and that market was full of tourist (especially japanese students). failed to take videos from there because some people actually looked at me talking to myself and thought im crazy lol...but i did took some vid tho :P

so we went back to circular quay, and saw this gigantic cruise here...the Millennium then we went to catch a bus back to goulburn street as george street was too long for us to walk...weather+distance=crazy

we went for a 4-hours karaoke session in CEO Karaoke with kathy, corrine and jingle and the place was pretty cool and new and the room was big for 4. (we ordered a jar of water (natural spring water?) that cost us 7DOLLARS!!! arse cossy!)

ok after the enjoyable screaming and yelling and singing...3 of them headed to have dinner at Cha For Tea and i went to meet YuJin to stay at his place until tuesday. He brought me to a malaysian restaurant and the food were OMG...the hokkien mee, chao keow teow and satay!!! were amazing!! and my teh tarik as well...delicious!

we went back to his house and i went to sleep because i was too tired...too much walking for a day. :S

Fryyyy day

so today we woke up early to go for yumcha in Marigold Restaurant near chinatown.
The food was ok and we met Chris's friend, Julie. She's Indo-Chinese and was very friendly.

after the breaky, we went for a walk and we went to have ice cream at passion flower. Ice cream was soooo nice (cant describe coz was too deliciousss)

today wasnt so happening but we went to a place called Norita for boardgames and the place was crowded, full of koreans. We played Pictionary and they screamed while playing and almost everyone looked at us, and i was like...lol (we're there for 2-3 hours)

we went to Takero, a japanese restaurant to have our dinner and i love the TAKO!!!

anyway, we walked to darling harbour for a walk after the dinner and drunkards were all around the place, lying on the ground, sleeping lol, they're just too smashed!

well, we went back to the hotel with few cruisers and we played cards again...then we need to head to bed earlier because tomorrow, need to wake up early to meet anotha new friend of kathy...JINGLE

First day of Sydney

So we're in sydney, had a nice lunch at Chinatown as the hotel was near and just across the paddy market.

waited for christiana to come to join us and we went to take a train from city to bondi junction and then we need to take a bus to the beach, yea the bondi beach.

was not that crowded but still were people with their pets and surfing and we went for a walk on the sandy beach...the wind was so strong and chilled~~~

anyway, we went back to bondi junction to catch the train back to city and went to have out dinner in a Vietnamese restaurant with Kathy's friend, Steven. Food were great and yum yum...soft crab, spring rolls, pineapple fried rice and pancake...were soooo delicious.

so afterthat, we went to back home instead going elsewhere again because we're sooo tired walking for the whole day.

(waiting for the trees to fall lol...but the trees were so full of self-confidence and and showed COCKINESS...[mr tree: i'm strong! and i wont get blown off!] blah blah blah) maybe mr tree just too old and have such strong branches that hold him tight to the ground hahaha. Why am i talking about tree? lol

National Cherries Festival held in Young, hopefully this will be a great and boom start for my plan as i will go with Greg, Jesse, Harry, Ian and etc. lol Heard that it will be a fun party over there, so will see what happens.

Next...Sydney trip again, just for food and walk and shop? how great to walk with a normal walking this time (because i sprained my ankle the day before i went to Sydney that day), cant wait for that...now i can walk more!

Will be back to Canberra for friends' graduations...(but when is my graduation?! 1.5 years more...omg thats long enough...means more studies to goooo)

Great songs, clashed?

Britney's back with her latest single "Womanizer" which is a superb song.
Beyonce also came up with two singles "Single Ladies" & "If I Were A Boy" which are also great.

I think Britney's "Womanizer" music video is much better compare to both of Beyonce's singles, so which do you think is better?

Britney Spears - Womanizer


Beyonce - Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)


Beyonce - If I Were A Boy


I still prefer Britney's Womanizer, it's great and interesting.
What about you?
