sydney was pretty and fun.
it was my first time there, definitely one of my fave places now! it's really pretty and i thought it would be pretty laid back and all, but it's quite similar to la. maybe all cities are the same. but truly, sydney's really pretty. it was supposedly summer but me being a tropical being found it quite cold (yes!) but thank goodness for my trusted hoodie, i was alright (: most of the times were spent in sydney the city itself, and breakfast at chinatown everyday was like fab. i think i put on like 5kg cos the food there are like damn. they're really good, even the chinese dishes. but best of all must be the seafood and the beef. sydney's fish market and steakhouses, throw me with those anytime. worth fats and calories and whatever! seriously good.
we didnt just stay in sydney, doh, that'd just be stupid and a waste of money. let's see, i think we signed up for a total of 3 tours, one was to huntersvalley, this wine making town or sth. we stopped by at some zoo and yes there were the kangaroos and the koalas and everyone was like aww except my dad, who wasnt much of an animal lover. but that's beside the point and anyw he enjoyed himself too cos the later part of the tour was wine tasting in which there were 10 over diff wines for you to try from. free. say yay! and i learnt sand boarding too, which was really fun. another tour was to gold coast, and this, is my fave tour among all (: 12 hour bus ride from the city was made enjoyable with the ipod, and gosh gold coast is beautiful. sun sun everywhere, my kind of place. of course the surfers (eyecandies!) were a plus too. stayed for 3 days thr, and the tour guide brought us to sea world and movie world, and we got to see all the dolphins and whales and sharks and all. of course, the theme park rides are awesome, and you have got to try this superman thing. it's really fast, the best ever. better than disneyland's! 100 times over, i have to say. i will learn surfing and one day i will surf in gold coast! definitely a must. okay and then the last tour was to blue mountains, more of a scenic tour i guess. im not really a scenic kinda person, so i didnt really enjoy that. but still, the view is too breathtaking for anyone to ignore, so i didnt leave empty-imaged. i'm really satisfied with this trip (:
okay so i've been ranting on and on about aus, and now that im back its time to think about the things here again. i called the moe hotline today to find out that i'm posted to pioneer science. (lea you lucky lucky girl!) i think i'm staying in pioneer then i'll see whr my o results can take me. i'm so excited yet so scared, so happy yet so sad. holidays are going to end in a flash, and it's time to say goodbye ): man i'm all nostalgic again. always! why o why do we organise class outings now that everyone has to separate? i wished we all could've bonded sooner. really do.
okay enough rantings for now. oh before i end i wanna thank marcus and three of my lovelies, jorina, jiali and shuwen once again for the really early christmas card! time to go return and favour and damn, i havent done my christmas shopping. i hope the outing tmr with huimin and gang works out! (: okay bye for now.
