1st day in Sydney

Was talking about posting my trip.... There you go!
THE VERY VERY FIRST DAY!!!

I caught the early flight from Lonnie to Sydney.
It took me 3 years to reach one of the most iconic cities in Australia, can't believe it? not even myself *ha!!*

I was rather anxious at first on the plane.
First is I'm gonna meet my junior JJ after 3 years of not seeing him.
and second is I'm really really unsure about my trip.
Especially the transportation in Sydney.... after being in Kampung Lonnie for so damn LOOOONG.

Luckily, I met a new friend on the early flight.
His name is Sai, (not PSY, even though I wish he is) XP
We got along pretty well, and found out that we actually share quite a number of similarities.
We are both the eldest among our siblings, the only one in Aussie with family back home (he's from Cambodia). He's just completed his degree in medicine and going to sit for his test before taking up housemanship as a General Practitioner.
With his help, I got my Multipass at a convinience shop successfully! YAAATAA!
=D FIRST STEP city's public transport for a tourist!


Afterwards, I boarded a 400 bus franticly with JJ guiding me through the mobile. 
The line wasn't really clear at that time. What I heard is just:
"when you see........mall.......turn...... then you will..... right....traffic light"
当时真的听到心都凉了。。。
head-ache ahhh.....
I decided to hang the phone off, and rely on text. 
It's hard.... but at least more stable, at least you won't get a missing sentence.
With the help of texts and the google earth I did before, I manage to arrive not lost. XP
I almost shout out to a guy who resembles my junior at first (I realise my ability to differentiate asians has actually drop...haha... I keep calling the wrong person from far) >_<!!!!
After meeting up, we went for lunch at an Indon restaurant, which is not too bad. =D
Then, we headed to his uni, the University of New South Wales.


The architecture school

Ma junior JJ

sarcasm ehh?

obviously, someone's overbored




Head bang-bang!
too tired JJ?
(he has just finished bringing some of his friends around.... komennasai)


According to JJ, it's always flocked with graduans waiting to take photos at this  monument.
hmm.... not sure why.

One of the brilliant coloured buildings

See you UNSW!!
Later, we caught up with Jabez (my senior) and JJ's roomie LiTi for dinner.
Then, we headed to the can't-be-any-more-famous Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge.

WHOA!!!! FINALLY!!! I'MMMM HERE!!!

Harbour Bridge
This pretty much concludes my first night in Sydney. Stay tune for more 
=D

收拾

还有不久即将回到一年四季皆夏的故乡了!
盼这天很久了,但,没有意想中的兴奋。
意外的是。。。整理家跟打包行李还真的有种洗涤心灵的效应!
这三年来,说来好像很长,但眨下眼,又过去了。
除了不少收获,当然遗憾也不少。
人就是那么的不满足!哈!谁叫我是人~
收拾的当儿,也想起了刚到Australia的我。

二月十四号二零一零年
除夕夜的飞机餐,丰富但乏味
初一的悉尼机场,对第一次出国的人来说,真的大到妈妈都找不到!
还有初二的塔斯,人生地不熟到心都凉了*没夸噢!*

还记得刚到的时候参与了个塔斯的农历新年庆典,
记得有个一起参与,高高瘦瘦的中国大兄说我的唐装很好看,
可惜,失去联络了。
如果在街上碰见,但认不出你,
请多多原谅,愿一切安康!=D

还有两个让我们寄宿的大哥。
其中一个在第一天来到就穿着boxer欢迎我们 =___= lll
希望你们现在的工作一切顺利!
永远不会忘记你们的那辆车。
一转弯就会发出好像快要脱落的声音,
所以我们都叫它"monster"。
后来听说你们逼不得已将它给回收了吧?
愿它安息!哈哈~

还有从车站接我们的大哥,
你应该看得出当时我们很迷茫吧!=P
谢谢。

还有某某车站的女职员,
谢谢你淋雨帮我们推车。
小姐,辛苦了!

还有很多很多无名的江湖过客,
谢谢一路的拔刀相助!
这一杯!干了!!

当然,少不了家里的那些老瓜,嫩瓜,小瓜。

谢谢小姑的手提电脑,它在这三年里真的帮了不少。

还有猪猪跟毛月*monyet*,谢谢三年来在家顶替我这一脚。
老蟹跟番薯先生来的这几个星期偶尔会叫我“shuoh boy/ah晟"
哈哈。。。XP 看来他们真的老了!

还有帮我申请了张卡的五叔。
虽然小姑一直叫我“拿去使,拿去使”,
但始终都没有使到。
原因简单:如果花钱像把大便大出来那么容易;那么赚钱必定像把大便塞进口般难。
哈哈。。。you know ma style, dirty but makes sense.

二姑的行李用到现在还在用着。
没办法,有感情的嘛~*装感性`*

还有那些寄于红包的长辈们,谢噢!

快了!

Tired 累

After an almost 4 week break with family around Aus, I actually feel more tired, but very content.
We travelled from Sydney to Tasmania and dropped by at Melbourne before catching a flight to KL and finally PG. (I'm back in Tassie as usual~ haa~)
The journey was so long till I'm not sure whether I should even blog about it, maybe?

READY TOOOOOO GOOOO!!!
