my holidays here in melbourne started a week ago.
the first thing we did was go on a trip to the great ocean road over the weekend. paid 130 dollars to get motion sickness and squash ourselves in a tiny bus and rush from one scenic spot to another. but also to spend a lot of valuable time with friends and get utterly refreshed by the great sea views and the glow worms.
it was so funny on saturday morning. cos we were supposed to meet at 9am at lincoln square. and us albert house people were late as usual. i was so scared that the bus had left without us know.. if not our money would have been wasted and they would probably have only 5 people on the bus ??
but yeah we made it on time cos the bus driver went to the wrong place so he was late too .. hurr hurr
so yeah we set off all excited and cramped in the tiny tiny bus. just nice to fit us in it
there the small bus and all of us on the trip
this is us at the beginning of the tourist section of great ocean road.
we went to see the twelve apostles. then went to this beach to see how tall it actually was. i went to play with the water being the only one in slippers and short pants and i lost my slipperthats me before
thats me in the water
thats me after the wave took me slipper
but luckily i managed to get it back thanks to a wonderful friend who grabbed it back when the waves brought it back. yupp jinsern tried to throw my other slipper into the sand. lucky he didn't
so i still have both left and right slippers now.
yupp we did a lot of fun things. we went to stay at this dorm kinda thing and spent the night playing games and all. really got to know people better. especially people like lilian and steven cos i never really talked to them before but they're very VERY nice people although lilian lost her voice haha. poor thing. but she protected me and held onto my hand when i was scared going up and down the stairs which were very high and i made sure she didn't fall down at the rainforest at night. cos we went to this rainforest to look at glowworms. initially we used torchlights. but later we turned them off to have a better view of them. the darker and the quieter it was. the more worms lit up. they looked like stars in front of you. very preetty !!
dinner at the camp place was sper nice !!
pumpkin soup and bread.. chicken and beef and peas and carrots and potatoes and pumpkin. woah so so so nice i tell you. so succulent and tender the meat and really tasty. so much better than the albert house we've been eating. the dinner !!
i'm not in the photo but there's our bus driver
oh hoho. we did a lot a lot of things during that trip. sang old songs for about an hour on the way back from the glow worms. took like a gazillion photos. yupp.
an overall enjoyable trip. good to be spent with friends or family. but a generallylong journey and ride which was winding. but thats life right. sometimes you get a bit sick and the roads are never straight but you get to be with people who love and care for you and have a whole lot of fun at the same time
i'm now in the state library. its the first time i'm coming in here and its so pretty !! i think i wouldn't mind coming here to study for term4. or in the future. really nice and there's computers to use. hoho
today was the opening of the new kirspy kremes in the city. we planned to wake up at 6am to go and queue up but ah haha no one did.. anyqway syafiq bought the girls a dozen and we all shared.. YUMMY !!! super nice i tell you/ especially the blueberry one which looked the ugliest but tasted one of the best. and the original one is sooo nice too. mm mmm..
the jam ones and the others were quite weird so i still like blueberry and original THE BEST ~~~ whoo
this isn't finished yet but i'll finish it soon
