........

2 days ago, I accompanied my housemate to go to hospital.....

today, another housemate received the news about his father's sudden death

天意吗？

懒郊狼

最近才发现，
我身边的懒胶狼越来越多。。。

hmm。。。 

是我的观察能力变差了。。。

还是。。。

他们伪装得太棒？

*极端！！*

“小姐，你不累吗？

要我帮你盖好你外面那层羊皮吗？”

*吸气~。。。呼气~。。。吸气~。。。呼气~。。。*

“嗨！”
=D

duh~

Just came back from hospital with my house mate, hopefully everything will be fine soon.

Seriously, I've never notice how much I loath to go into a hospital. I don't like the smell of the chemicals, I don't like the low temperature inside the building, and there's always a corner where sunlight is never able to reach.

Don't worry, it's not me, just that my house mate got and infection. Hope nothing will go serious, if not, it's really serious. =(

An unexpected call

It's just the 3rd day of my second year, yet all the assignments came pouring down like rain...haha
The feeling is totally different from 1st year... XP
All in all, the most important thing is still time management.
In amidst of all those assignments pouring down.... life will always give you something occasionally which will either make your day worse or brighten up everything.

Like this afternoon, my phone rang and the number appeared on the screen is an unknown number.
I hesitated for a moment and finally picked it up....

"Helloooooo........ Song?!"
"Hmm...? Chuck?...haha" *I started to laugh, for no reason.....haha..... weirdo?*

Chuck, he's the partner I worked with in the apple farm, a Korean who's already in his 26 but face looked like 18 and below... XP

Nothing much actually, we just chat, chat, chat and chat... haha
He's going back to Korea this Friday, which means another 2 days, and good news is he's transiting in Kuala Lumpur. But the bad news is I'm still in Tassie. duh~ it's pathetic to know that your friend is coming to your country but you won't be there. = (

But, I'm glad... or should I say 'very happy'? that he called before he leave.Maybe I might not be able to see any traces of him anymore in my life, even in this world filled with virtual social networking like FB and twitter. Life is still life, the net net thingy is no substitution for it...... not even a little.

As usual, he asked me.... again.... to find a gf, and I told him to marry and set up a family ASAP. haha....
Nothing much, I just hope that he'll  get a good and stable job in South Korea and always be happy.

Before hang up, he told me
"Sornng, tank-kiul for everything"
"haha......no worries!! I must thank you too!...hahaha...... Annyong-hikaseyo!"
*the laughter just went on and on for no reason*
What I discovered is that a simple call from someone unexpected can be really really really really..... hmmm...... I don't know how to put this, but I clearly know that I like the feeling I'm having now.

"Throughout your whole life,

numerous people will walk in 

and walk out from your heart,

some leave no traces

but

some will leave a 
life-long  mark in your heart"

Landed on Gold Coast!

Finally, after an hour of delay in our flight, 

we left the Metropolitan city of Melbourne and 

headed towards the tropical land - GOLD COAST!!

Luckily, the area was not affected by 'Yasi'

Overall, the main activity in Gold Coast will be none but the theme parks.

The first one that we visited is the SEA WORLD.

It's mainly a theme park filled with aquamarine life.

 Group photo at the entrance =D

The first animal show - The Detective Seal

I'm not really a big fan of animal show, so it's just average for me.

The weather turned wet after around half an hour we arrived at the park.

Wet-wet-wet....... but at least it's not cold. 

Stingray! We actually touched it!!! and some how its skin felt
like a rough leather with jelly on top of it XP *yumm~*

海参！Hai Somm!! Sea Cucumber!! Timun Laut!!
Fooh! sure it's going to taste yummy if have steamboat XD
THAM CIAK!

Hi Sayang! 乖乖哦
哈哈~ *白痴*
(^___^)

I'm wondering how much corals are destroyed 

just to shift this on into the 'Sea World'......hmmmm... *guilt*

hmmm..... tell me Patrick, did they force you here?

Can see that there're a few in their ponchos 

Is that a Gummy Shark?

GOSH!!!
Even Jiraiya Sama's legendary toad can be found here!!!
haha.... only those who follows Naruto will know this joke.

Some average rides in the park.... maybe just for me.

haha... I just found them to be a bit less thrilled. 

 Sea World is basically a place for family with members of all ages, 

from infants to those with silver linings are suitable for this park.

Family day 

Theme park staff: We'll first dissect the dolphin from its bottom tummy,

of course, a vital blow from a well-sharpened knife is necessary.

Me: Ooopss! ... look like it's not really that "family-friendly" after all. XP

Had a pirate show for the afternoon session.
Not that bad, at least no chance of animal abuse. >_

 Before going back to our accommodation, 

we manage to stopped by at the polar bear section.

Bear Bear: amm....ammm......yumm....yummm *chewing the tuna given*

 Me: NO WONDER LAHHH!! Its buttock is so HUGE!!!

haha.... it reminded me a popular saying by the older people

"If you sit down or lay down immediately after your meal,

you gonna have a monstrous buttock and multiple layers of spare tyres"

haha.....

seems like I have found the proof.

cheers guys!

p/s: 元宵节快乐！
不管你是抛柑，捞蕉
还是抛蕉，捞柑
祝大家有个美满的元宵节。

On my way to Goldcoast

This trip can be considered as the last escape before my Uni recommences. To where?
GOLD COAST!黄金海岸！
A place which shares the same weather with Malaysia, hot and humid. To me, it's heavenly heaven. (o^ ~ ^o)
Before reaching Goldcoast, I have to transit at Melbourne. Too bad, no KBU'ians there =(
Hmm... what can I say about Melbourne?.....
It's a city, definitely a metropolitan, especially for a Tassie boy who has been indulging himself in the Australian Bush for the past 365 days.
*yes, exactly 365 days after I've reached Tassie*

At first, we didn't really plan to go into the Melbourne city. 

What we first planned was just hanging around the Melbourne airport, 

sleep here and there, 

hanging around again, 

sleep here and there again.... 

and make ourselves bored. 

But

How can we stand rooted on the ground when there's a metropolitan city out there!!??

We checked out the fare needed to be paid to get onto the city express shuttle.

It was DAMN BLOOD SUCKING SKYROCKETING HIGH! 
*well..... for a shuttle bus* XP

So, we rented a car which is almost hundred dollar cheaper than our bus fare in total.

SO?!

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

Theeee Melbourne CeeTee'eeeess Way-aiting for us!

(Adrenalin pumping in the vessels) haha... just can't help.

We're on the Melbourne Highway!!!

I noticed they called it 'Freeway', which means toll free, while the one named Centrelink is not. 

Another unusual thing about the toll is they don't have toll station to collect the toll fees. 

Instead, they have a speed camera to capture the registration number of the vehicles 

and bill will reach the doorstep of the owners. 

Canggih kan!? No queue, which means less jamming along the road.

My first ever glimpse on the Melbourne CBD skyline!

*sorry for the over-reacting, I just can't help it* >_

nice taste on designing the bridge supports.

We first parked the car at the Queen Victoria Market, 

then only we started on our city venture.

 I think I should call it "an open-eye to Melbourne CBD architecture"

The transportations in Melbourne

Bicycle, anyone?

Tram service

Who has a soft heart for fairy tale comes true?

Standing between the new and old?

You can see how 'sampat' I am, even the flower stall becomes the victim of this shutterbug. 

Walking by the street

LOOK!
Me: HUA-WHAT?!!

I call this rumah kotak, house of boxes =P

This building looked like the giant version of an I-beam... haha

Even the street lamp is so Artsy-Fartsy!!
I felt so BEH-tahan!! But I like it! haha... 

(*_______*) ##
beware of the stalker looming around~

RMIT

A warm and hommie ghost house > ~ <

My housemate with the beautifully vaulted corridor 

Seriously, I really felt different when I first stepped into the Melbourne CBD.

Everything's so different from Tassie,

the endless crowd

the beautiful skyline

the rushing asian community

the  tram which is *ting-ting-tiang-tiang* away in distance

the breath-taking hook turn at the cross junction

the summer weather

the artsy-fartsy street

the cooling greeneries

the diversity found there is really nice!

Bye Melbourne!

and

GOLD COAST! WAIT FOR MEE!
