Woooh.. I had not blogged for so so long!! I was so busy. I was leading a fulfilling life. I had exams. That’s not the fulfilling part. I went to Sydney and Melbourne with huiquan. I must say I love both cities. I always assume Australia to be like Canberra, which is quiet, serene, calm and nice. Its tranquillity gradually turned into being plain boring. I think the super market in the shopping centre nearby is the most happening place in Canberra. Ok, I should stop complaining about the lack of activities here.

I went to Sydney when huiquan first arrived. It was a really fun experience being in Sydney as for once, more than 30 people are within my view in Australia. We went to sydney fish market
nd had picnic by the sea. We had lobster, oyster, snapper, prawns etc etc and beer by the sea. We sat on the grass. In singapore, i dont think people are very willing to sit on grass as there are ants la, mud la etc etc. But in australia, it's like a norm. You have to sit on grass to feel australian.

We went to the opera house and the harbour bridge after that.


Sydney oper house really looks magnificient, in postcards. When we saw it in person, it is not that grand. The structure is interesting but it is not very well maintained i think. From close-up, i thought that it look like ministry of manpower in tanjong pagar. Harbour bridge is nicer :)


Oh then we went to melbourne on the following week. MELBOURNE IS VERY NICE. haha i like it a lot. It was so so fun. I feel like i was trapped in Tekong, and released into pasir ris white sands. But melbourne is a really nice city. Buildings very european, shopping is really good. They have this street called colin st which is a small alley with all the small cafes, restaurants and shopping etc.


I have always wanted to visit sydney and melbourne ever since i was young. It is quite surreal that i can just take a bus over.


I stayed near a beach in melbourne. On my last day, i realised that i can actually see penguins on the beach if i am there at the right time!!! So we did not see any penguins although we could hear them. They were hiding in the rocks by the time we went there. But we saw other types of birds la.

These few weeks is the most amazing period i had here in australia. I will never forget the time i had. It was really fun and memorable. But when i came back, i had to start preparing for exams!! which was like a week away. haha.
