uno dos TRES

On the seventh day, God completed all his work and rested
We're not as almighty as the big one so...
We did on the 3rd.
Hahah
Actually, i did.
So here's the story.
Nicole woke me up at 1130 with the intention to vist Queen Victoria Market today
I told her to go get ready and by the time she is done, i'll be up
She did and i was still dead as a log, so she let me sleep a little more.
So she tried again at 1230, no response.
Woke me up at 3pm, and told me the market closes at 5pm
In all my grogginess, i asked her "Huh???!! den how?"
And nic replied: "Den go back to sleep den"
And so i did!
Finally woke up at 5pm
I was dead tired man
We decided that todays gonna be chill bill day anyway, so its cool

Nicole made dinner at home.
Korean kim chee noodles with stir fried beef and straw mushrooms
Yummy:)







so its 343am on my side now.
Just in case you dont know, we are 3 hours ahead of Singapore
Supposedly 2, but because of "daylight saving" they added 1 hour just a few days ago.
Nic tried explaining what day light saving is to me
But i still dont get it
Very warped theory

Plans for tmr?
Till then!
Ciao

p.s: YES GINA, i would LOVE TO BE YOUR BRIDE'S MAID:)
very nice site btw.
and i am glad you chose that picture of me, cause i like it too!

Oz too

Happy Boxing Day guys!
Day two down under is jammed packed with action and I'll tell you why
We woke up at 430am zomg cause traditionally on boxing day all the malls hold this great great sale and open their door at an unearthly 5am and close at 12pm

Our very first destination was Burket street.
It is kinda like the Orchard Road in singapore
We took a tram there and reached the place at an unearthly time of 545am



Oooh! and guess what?
As I approach the place, I was greeted by this very apt piece of art


A giant Purse
As i look at the picture now, i pity that smiley girl on the giant purse who has no idea that she had just sealed the deal with the giant purse of spending for the rest of the day.

pit stop 1: Myer
Trying out lovely hats which nicole eventually bought.




after a very fruitful shopping experience at myer with no photos as we were too busy shopping, we headed to the train station to make a pilgrimage to Chadston, the fashion capital of Melbourne
En route Chadston, eating subway at Flinders train station.




Yes, they allow food- They even have little vendors selling food at the platform.
How cool is that?
Anyway, Chadston is like this giant shopping mall with every shop you can imagine
From the super atas like Louis Vuiton to the very affordable Cotton on.
As we were busy shopping, i didnt manage to take any photos
For a little break, we hopped over to the pankncake house for a little sugar rush with an order of double stack pancakes with a single scoop of vanilla ice cream- each.
And because we over spent, we can only dream abt drinking something else other than water,






After ice cream, we were good to go and began our long journey back to Bourke Street via the trains again
Candids while waiting for the trains.






Before going back home, we went to Woolworths to get do some grocerry shopping
This supermarket is damn cool.
You check your own items out
Here is nicole scanning the bar codes on the food and putting them into the plastic bags on her own.




Cool right?
I remembered i wanted to be a cashier when i was young.
Shopping here would definitely be a perfect alternative to being a cashier for real
Not sure if it increases efficiency though caused the machine screwed up many time and we needed the assitant's help to reset the machine.

Nicole got me a belated christmas pressie and i LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE it.
Everyone, meet

my new orang utan!!
Hector i call it.
Hector the orang.
Cute right?

So after a jammed packed day,
being back at home is kinda weird.
So, to let off the excess energy that we have, i present to you some good girls gone bad down in melbourne.
Hah.



Siao cha bors. Okay....more like siao cha bor-singular.
Nicole is totally patronizing me. Look at the unwillingness in her face.
Party pooper!
haha
anyway, till the next adventure!
i think tmr is a day for recovery
Damn shagzz

Oz 1

Merry Christmas from down under!
Chritmas in Melbourne is kinda like chinese new year in China.
The whole place is a freaking ghost town.
Basically all major and even minor stores are closed for today
So, its a chill and relax day for me

When i touched down, i called nicole who was supposed to come pick me up at the airport.
But dear miss teo partied a little too hard last night, so she kinda overslept.
Took a cab all the way to her place by myself and i nearly fainted cause the cab fare was like MAD CRAZY
The meter doesnt moves, it freaking run cause it increases by 10cents every second.
I paid 57 aussie bucks just to cab to her place.
Please do not tell me the amount in Sing dollars cause i think i may cry.

So, since the stores are all closed, we tried out luck with the restaurants and thank god they were open
But we had to walk like damn far
and i dont like to walk damn far so i was like complaining all the way


Settled for italian and boy was it good
We had mixed pasta combo for 2 that comes with out choice of 3 pasta


1. Risotto Pollo
2. Spaghetti Meatballs
3. Linguine Prawn
Aewsome yum.
The serving here is like mad huge so we were stuffed and left the meatballs one out cause it was the least favourite
The risotto is awesome. Best one i have tried.




Anyway here is a story that nicole shared with me today and i think its damn funny.
She was trying to tell me about the racism situation in aust and how the whites hate the ah nehs and ah tiongs(which is us in aussie context)
After that she was getting to a point where you dont mess with the vietnamese here cause they are like post war generation and are super gung ho abt everything
So 3 white aussie guys where messing around in the club and the accidentally bumbed into a vietnamese guy
The vietnamese guy was so angry that he went to his car and took out a SAMURAI SWORD
he unsheathed the sword and chased the 3 guys while dragging it on the floor, you can see a trail of sparks
So he basically killed 2 of the white guys with the sword and only one survived
No.1 who carries a freaking samurai sword in their car?
No.2 dragging the sword to create sparks?
haha...
yeah.. thats the funny part.

So boxing day sales tmr starts at 5am!!
zomgwtfknsgtglolbrbstuf
I dunno how i am supposed to wake up
till then.
uodates soon:)

i know that you are trouble but i couldn't resist

still packing.
and making a mess.
I got a feeling i'll be up all night.
Call me.


Banging my head to "Good girls go bad" by Cobra Starship.

I Know Your Type
Boy You’re Dangerous
Yeah You're That Guy I‘d Be Stupid To Trust
But Just One Night Couldn’t Be So Wrong
You Make Me Wanna Lose Control

Results.

i dont suck at soccer!!!!!
I know its the wrong trophy but, it is adequate.
Just like the rest of my results
Adequate.
General physiology is a bitch- nuff said

I'll be busy packing my luggage and room when i wake up in the afternoon
Lotsa things to do and i always wonder why i am constantly on this mad rush on the final day before the due of anything.
Everyone say it with me: PROCRASTINATOR
That shall be my middle name together with beauty/destroyer
Final day before ozzie and i am so not ready!!
Dad was at the airport to check in for me so i wouldnt have to on thursday and he told me that the airplane that i'll be taking is the airbus A380-upper deck window seat
Called him back immediately to get him to change to aisle seat
Thank god he was still at the counter
I dunno if its just me, but whenever i am travelling alone,
i would never choose to take the window seat because that would mean that i would have to squeeze past everyone to get to the restroom.
No??
Thanks daddy anyway!

Went to marina barrage with besties to play cards and chat up after dinner at the quainte little restaurant near arab street called "The vintage deli restaurant.
The food is really good and friendly on your wallet- always a plus when its economical.
And, its halal, so melati you can go there to pak tor(instead of always gg to Pasta Mania!!), sarah you can bring bee there and brother bear, you can treat me to lunch soon.
Anyway, it was my first time at the barrage and i think the place is realy great but it is really inaccessible to the public cause its tucked at a deep corner near raffles place if i am not wrong
Thank god marcus dear drove
So, to all the couples out there, if you wanna go pak tor at the marina barrage, you better make sure you have a car cause the place is really awesome with a great view and nice breeze.

Princess and the Frog is like DA BOMB

The queen mother of all bombs
It has been such a long time since disney made such an awesome movie
Somehow, i feel that this movie stuck true to the essence of how all disney movies made kids felt in the past
The appropriate little songs at every scence
The same message that "Dreams come true"
The happily ever after
By the end of the movie, i found myself clapping and smilling so wide that my face was always halved by it.
I saw a little reminisence of Hercules, Anastasia, Jungle Book just to name a few in this film alone.
So....
If you havent watched it, i beg you please..
GO!

omg..
its 620 now and i heard my mamma's door open
imma go sleep now in case i get in trouble!!!

edit:
busted!!!

drive safe.

Tale as old as time

Was out with the PPGs today to catch a local musical staged by wild rice, Beauty and the Beast


The atmosphere was really good as it happened to be the final show hence the place was graced by the presence of theatre celebs like Hossan Leong and the wild rice director himself who were all coincidentally sitting at the row just behind us.
ooh.. Star struck.

Personally, i am a great fan of local stage productions and i belive they are much more entertaining than the broadway ones cause they would always add a little social satire that we can relate to and laugh about.
However i think this one is really a miss for me at least cause Sarah enjoyed herself very much.
On the whole, i would say that the show was only average
The punch lines if any, were mediocre and all the jokes were just permutations of the Ris Low saga
And come on, there are only so many Ris Low jokes that one can assimilate in a single day
Probably one of the very few highlights of the show were the two ugly sisters of Beauty played by En Lai and some other guy.
They were hilarious.
Yeah. Thats about it.
This one sadly is a "neh" for me.
If i were to rate it, i give it 1.5 soggy styrofoam tasting popcorns tops.

To end, i leave you guys with a final picture on the way home
I swear you wouldnt wanna know the long arduous and noisy process of choosing who was supposed to be the photographer preceding the shooting of this beautiful image.


i promised sarah i wouldn't photoshop her boobs this time.
you should really see the dress below the shoulders man.
Its like...... Boomz.
Literally.
