Great Ocean Road and Philip Island

Hello! I'm finally back to blog bout my super duper awesome 2 days 1 night trip. :)

DAY 1

So, on Saturday morning, we had to leave our apartment really early. Really EARLY in the morning, like at 5.40am, so that we could catch the 5.45am train cause we had to be at Monash Clayton campus by 7.15am. And I know rite, why take such an early train. Cause we didnt wanna miss the bus from Huntingdale Station or else we will have to wait another 30mins I think? LOL



I had only like 4 hours of sleep the night before okay. My eye bags was freaking bad and I looked like a zombie. Haha



Reach Monash Clayton way earlier than we were supposed to be there, and so we just hang around, wanting to find toilet in the campus, but none of the buildings were open. Then just sat there and I was telling my stupid ghost story (which I think you all don't wanna know coz its stupid now that I think back, but at that time when it happened, it was freaking creepy!!)



Then finally our mini bus arrived ;D Yes its "mini". Only can fit 24 people max. We paid for tour, with STA travel. Cost about AUD 235 for 2 days 1 night. And the rest of the people in the bus were engineering exchange students, studying in Clayton.


The minute I was on the bus, I totally died off. Into deeeeep sleeeep :) 1 and the half hours later, our bus driver woke us up, and we were at Colac town. Went down for toilet break and the bus driver told us to go "play with the swings" at the playground while he went off to buy BBQ stuffs for our dinner that nite :D



And yeapp, we did exactly like what he told us to do. HAHA

*Coolest swing ever ok. Its a combination of a see saw and a swing*
Cannot be found in Malaysia! XD

*Wheee revealing my kiddish side* :P

Got bored of it after awhile la =.=


Then bus driver came back, and we got up the bus, I went back to deep sleep :D Hehe. Then he woke us up again 1 hour later and we were at the famous Ship Wreck Coast, which is home of London bridge, and Loch and Gorge.


I dont remember which is which la. Cause everything looked the same. Rocks and oceans XD

*The broken London Bridge*

*Sampat house mate doing her 'im so cold' look*
But it was seriously freeeezing @@

*Chern, Mun*

After that, we went back up the bus and had lunch on the bus. Ham and salad roll, with apple and blackcurrant drink. Haha quite sucky lunch la. Headed over to Port Campbell town and just walked around the town and hanged around in the beach.

*Port Campbell town*

*Nice beach!*

*Saw cute dogs*
Dogs in Aussie are seriously very well trained lo. They dont jump, dont bite. They just sit still and let u touch them. Awwww <3

Then we continued our journey to The Razorback (p/s: i have no freaking idea whats that) Lol must be cause I was too sleeeepy :P











Headed down to the beach next.





We took off all our shoes and socks and just ran around in the beach. Haha who cares about getting sand everywhere. Its a once in a life time thing man!

*Went and dip my leg into the water and it was freeeeeeeeezing cold!!*
My leg was numb after this picture =.=

*JUMPSHOTS, as usual :)*

Went to another beach.
And I also forgot what beach is this. Too many places in a day. But this beach was freaking awesome. Its so beautiful!! Beautifully fake in a way. Looked like a picture from a post card lo. I stood there and just stared at the scenery and I couldn't believe my eyes. Best I've seen ever!










Up next was 12 Apostles.











Then went back up the bus, and I thought we were finally done for the day. But NOOOO. I slept for like 1 hour then the bus driver woke us up for jungle trekking. Oh my Gawd I was so freaking tired and sleepy I really wasn't in the mood for trekking. But I was forced too haihhhh...

I'm super not interested in trees lorrrr :( The tour guide told us that its a cool-tempered rain forest, which means that the temperature in that rainforest would be slightly lowered compared to the temperature outside.


And yup it was FREEZING. I was shivering and my teeth were chattering throughout the whole trekking which only took us about 30 mins. Haha cause we keep saying 'walk faster then can go back faster and eat dinner faster'. :P








Once we were done, it was finally time for us to have dinner. And we were having BBQ dinner that night! Yummmy. The driver took us to our backpackers place where we will be staying for the night.

First time staying in a backpackers place and it was way better than i expected it to be. What I imagined when the word backpackers come to my mind is, jail-like dorms with dirty bathrooms. But I was wrong!!

The place is a really really big house with rooms. And the toilets were super clean. Rooms were super clean too. My first experience in such place and I really enjoyed it. Reason is cause its so 'homely' and we get to meet other people staying in that place as well :)

*Room*

*Living Room area*

*Kitchen*

BBQ TIME
We had lots and lots of foooood!
Lamb Chops, Sausages, Patties, Pasta, Salad, Honey Chicken Wings

It was a really hearty meal. I ate till I wanted to puke LOL XD Greedy much me :P

*And of course not forgetting boooooooze :P*
2 cartons of beers. Wheeeee :D

And I got drunk that night. 2nd time since I came to Aussie. :P I was super high and drunk that I laughed till I cried. Literally tears falling down. XD And I forgot the way back to our backpackers. :P But it was a really really fun night!


After drinking and eating, we walked back to our backpackers and had to shower bla bla bla. I was so drunk that I couldn't walk up the stairs properly XD And I insisted that my friend had to talk to me all the time while I was bathing.

I said 'if I stop talking to you, pls bang open my door because most probably I'd already fainted inside' XD


After shower, felt soo soo much better. Less drunk but still high. And so we went to the guys room and had card games. LOL damn funnnnny la that night. We were making soooo much noise that someone staying in that house came knocking on our door and ask us to lower down our voice. Hehe paisehhhhhhh :P


Slept close to 2am that night and we had to wake at 7 the next morning. Lol I seriously felt and looked like a zombie the next morning lorrrr..




DAY 2


I forgot what happened in Day 2. -.- I just remembered getting up the bus, then stopping at lots of places. Going down to take pics. Then getting up again. And the whole process repeats. So I'll just post some pictures up la k :P

*Saw Koala Bears!!*
But they are always sleeping. So sien

*Stopped at some place with awesome scenery beside the road*

We boarded a ferry after that across Port Philip Bay to Mornington Peninsular.

*Cool leh!!! :P*
haha p/s: I was seasick but I still could take this shot
Shows how SS I am :P

Headed over to Philip Island and we stopped by Maru Park. We got to hand feed kangaroos okay!!! So cuteeeeeeeeee...

*My first try*
I was so freaking scared when the kangaroo came towards me hahaha
But they are really really tame laaa So cuteeeeeee ;D

WHEEEEEE :D

*And we spotted a mummy kangaroo carrying her baby in her pouch!!!*
Omg so freaking cuteeee!!!!!!!

Mun: Come eat my foooood kangaroo
Kangaroo: HMPHH no choi u :(
(See the kangaroo's lanci face)

*But I forced its head to my bowl of food eventually XD* Muahahaha evil me

*Meet Mr Donkey ;D*

Next was beach again. I have no idea why he brought us to sooo many beaches @@

But we will never get bored of doing jumpshots hahahahahaha

Dinner was next. Had pizza at some park-beach kinda place.

*PIZZZZA :D*

*Happy me with my pizza. I had 4 slices hahaahhahahaha :D*

*Some place which I forgot the name*

*Headed over to Penguin Parade next*

The penguins were only supposed to come out at about 8.30 pm so we were super early. Haha so what we did was hang around in the souvenir shops playing with all their stuffs :P

*Koala-bear wanna-be*
Hehe in case you cant see, we're wearing koala ears headband. Damn cuteee okieee:D

*Penguinnnnn * :D

Then when it was time for us to go watch the penguins, we headed over to the beach. And we had to sit there quietly in the cold just to wait for the penguins to come out. Omg no regrets man! The cutest living creature I've ever seen in my whole entire life!!!!!!!


They walk in 1 line and they will wait for each other. And they are so freaking tiny omggg..

*Blurred picture of penguins*
We weren't allowed to take pics :(

And the most amazing thing is watching penguins jump off a road curb. I swear to god its the cutest thing I've ever seen. They will go to the edge of the curb and hop off one by one. And the ones that have already hopped off, will wait for the rest. Freaking cute rite?????? :DDDDD

*Cute penguin signboard :P*

Haha after we were done with penguins, it was time for us to head home. Booo. Everyone was freaking exhausted but it was a really really fun and unforgettable 2 days 1 night trip.


2 hours plus journey home and we finally reached back the city. That night I slept at 4 am cause had to come home and bath then talk to dearie awhile cause I totally abandon him during my whole trip. Sowiee dear I was having too much fun that I forgot all bout you :(


And thank god my class the next day was like at 3 pm so I had plenty of time to sleep. Hehe

hhahahahah I've been playing it since I came back from uni until know non stop. Omg kill me pls someone. I gotta stop it soooooooon! :P


-mun-

First lab practical

Wheee I had my first lab practical yesterday. And the difference with the practicals conducted here and back in Sunway is a BIG difference.
Firstly, people here are so , errrrr serious? I think that's the word to describe them. Its like all work and no play. Everyone is so serious bout the practical and everyone works so efficiently.



Our practicals in Sunway usually takes up 3 hours. And even with 3 hours, we wont be able to complete our pracs. And here its only 2 hours!! And I'm proud to announce that for ONCE in my whole entire 3 years of studying pharmacy, I succeeded in getting results :D HAHA even the demonstrator said my results were excellent okay!! :P



Usually in Sunway, we will be busy playing around, disturbing the demonstrators, facebook-ing, pat gua-ing with friends. Lol no wonder we dont get things done. And no wonder ALL our pracs didnt succeed :P And yesterday's prac made me miss Sunway. I wanna go back there where no one is so serious. i wana go back to making fun and kacau-ing the demonstrators. Haihhh :(




Oh and on Sunday, I decided to be "adventurous" and went exploring by myself. Haha ok la not really considered exploring because I just walked to Lygon Street from Swanston Street. LOL and I got lost -.- Yes Yes I know, you all can start laughing at me now. Even my friends laughed at me non stop :( How can someone get lost when Lygon street is only 7 mins away T.T


Thank god for GPS on my hp :D I switched on my navigation, and stood on one spot, and started turning around in circles, just so that I can find the correct direction that is showing on my gps. Hhahahaha and the GPS led me to Lygon Street with voice guidance sumore okie! :D I dont care if my method of getting there is stupid, at least my stupid ways got me to the destination at last rite rite??? :D


This was wat my friend said :

Gwen - ... you got lost from swanston st to lygon st?
Way Chern -HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA! very funny xD
Way Chern-  ‎Gwen Ong,  Listen to her n u know how funny is it!!XD She said the navigator TALKS to her while she is WALKING soooo cute kan! ;D 


Oh and the reason why I went to lygon was to find for freddo gelato ice cream! Wheee mission accomplished!

*Durian and Dolce Heaven flavor* 

Sat there, enjoying the breeze, looking at the cars pass by, msn-ing dearie using my hp :) Really relaxing :)

Came back home and found out that I was gonna eat dinner alone as both my housemates had their own plans. So I cooked spaghetti! Freaking yummy! With mince pork!! :D 


Haha and had my first dinner date with dear on webcam. He ate his dinner while I ate mine. Feels good :) At least someone is there to talk to me and teman me while I'm alone. And we were comparing food, to see whos food looks better. Obviously I win :P Lol we should do this more often dear :P

And finally I bought this!!

*Chips* HEHE gonna try it out real soon ;P

Now back to studying :( 
I will munch on my chips now muaahahahahah Im so happpy :D

-mun- 

Pissed off!!

Im freaking pissed off with Unilodge! They made us lose everything we had in the fridge!! I dont fking care bout the groceries but my pimple cream was in the fridge and its now gone! Into the rubbish bin. And it cost rm200. ARHHGG I cant live without my pimple cream laaaaa.Its from Malaysia and what you want me to do now??!!!



We made a BIG fuss about it and went down to complain and talked to the manager, and the manager wanted to shut our mouth by giving us 15 HOYTS free movie tickets to watch any movie we want and 3 vouchers for massage. Blardy hell, keep your movie tickets and vouchers la. How you expect us to watch so many movies. You think we're here to watch movies?? We want back our groceries. Give us someting more useful, like restaurant vouchers or cash vouchers to buy back our groceries la. Dont give us movie tickets. Freaking useless! JUST GIVE ME BACK MY PIMPLE CREAM AND I WILL FORGET BOUT MY GROCERIES.



Tomorrow, we will go down and complain again. HAHA we are damn famous here d. Famous for complaining. The whole reception knows us and every time they see us, they will know that we're there to complain again. haha. Hopefully we can come up with a solution that both parties are happy about.


And because of that, we couldnt cook anything yesterday night and haha a chance for me to go out and spend money :D Went to QV and explored around and finally settled down at Hanaichi ( I tink its spelled like that ) lol.

*Chicken Teriyaki* 

Nice! :D

And just now had EasyWay bubble tea with Nian and TY, and few other people. My first bubble tea in Australia! Wheeee and it was nian's treat coz I had no small change! Thankiewww :)


Weather is getting freaking cold these days. I dont have the mood to go out at all. I just wanna stay at home and rot. Sleep, eat, online chat, and watch my drama :D


Haha. And and we booked our air tickets to Sydney already!!!! Wheeee going for 10 days. Omg more than emough! I'm so happppy :D 10 full days with darling after not seeing him for 4 months. Then he will be flying back to Malaysia while I fly back to Melbourne, and continue rotting here till whenever I like, juz cause I dont like going home hahahaha :P


And no more Gold Coast during Easter. Cause air tickets are freaking expensive and so not worth. So we decided that we'll go during end of semester break too. 23 - 26 June to Gold Coast then 29 June to Sydney! Oh myy I can't wait!!! ;D


Hehe now I just wish the semester will pass faster cause I wanna go on holidays :D


-mun-

3.5 months

yup. that's the amount of time left for me in Malaysia. in 3.5 months time, i will be leaving everything behind, leaving my home, leaving my ever comfort zone. to a whole new place, whole new life, whole new environment. and soon, that new place will be my home, and this place where i am now. can onl y be my holiday home. if everything goes as planned, i think. i will probably be back in Msia like. once a year only?

i cant believe that this happening to soon. i thought i had 2.5 years extra in msia. but little do i know, 2.5 years flew past this quickly. and soon, in 3.5 months time. i will be away for good. i will be on my own from that time onwards. it will be time for me to grow up, be independent and live like an adult. i am scared, to be away. to be alone. to deal with things all by my own. i am so not ready to leave home, this place where i have everything with me. and i cant bear the fact that i have to leave home. its like. im never coming back home for good. and if i come back, its just gonna be 3 months MAX. noooooo T______________T but then, part of me is really excited. its finally my turn to grow up, and get exposed to the world outside. its finally time for me to be independent. and i am now one step nearer to my dream!

and yes. I am going to New Zealand. i have been hoping and praying to get Aus but luck wasnt by my side. and since NZ and Otago love me so much, i shall go to you. be sure to treat me good and make me fall in love with u! things will be completely different there. like. its 30+ degree here but when i reach there, the temperature probably ranges from 0-10 degrees only. then, from a big city, im going to a student town, which is so quiet. from having a car to get around places, to Bus 11 (hahah got it from Lincoln =p) from yamcha sessions at night, to drinking hot tea alone at home in front of the laptop? and from this food paradise to... simple, cheap and my sucky homecooked food.

but oh well, i have another 14 people there with me and i am DAMN SURE that we will have fun =)

so. for the next 3.5 months, im gonna live with no budget! hahha. must eat all the nice food (hawker food) around... must enjoy all the local delicacies and all the kopitiams and local coffee. must live my life to the fullest before i leave! hahha..

k this is alot of words. n as i said. eat all the nice food around. so for the past 1.5 months, i dined 3 times in Hokkaido Ichiban. haha. wouldnt say that its damn good but its not bad for the price im paying.

*beef* yum yum..... meat might be a little tough but definitely taste good.

then on a fine day after paintball with my coursemates. we tried Uncle Jang's. that famous korean place everyone's talking about lately. the food taste good but damn it! too spicy for me! i was sweating nonstop, with a super runny nose and i could feel tears coming out from my eyes k. and the worst part is. we ordered 2 normal and 1 spicy.

*so. uncle jang*
not done cooking yet la

and on Monday, finally had the chance to try this Japanese place in Sri Petaling. and i only get to try it cus i made dad bring me. hahah!!

*bento set for rm32*
really not bad! big portion and i like the ramen.
but i still prefer the main branch in hartamas

speaking of eating all the nice food. after jap food for lunch, i had Korean for dinner. wahahhaha! Kimchi.. yummmmsssssss... my love!!

on the same day, dad became my patient. he was so patient, waited for 3.5 hours! just for me to get things done for him. and he didnt even complain at all. and he agreed to have a new denture done just so that i can learn how to make a denture. daddy is the best! hehehe... he even recommended me to his friends.. awwwww.....

then.. last saturday. i conquered Klang Gates again. first time without my parents. so proud of myself. haha. except that we got lost in the end, and we came out from the other exit which was like 1.5km away from the car. and had famous ampang yong tau foo after that. hehehe!

*super nice scenery*
i really dont mind going back again. hhaha

*group photo*

this was my conversation with my classmate

him: eh eat cheaper food la. im on rm5 budget la
me: i still got 3.5 months here only! 3.5 months to eat all the nice food in malaysia. dont ask me to go on budget!

and yes. im gonna eat more good food from tmr till sat. wheee. im a happy girl.

k and i wanna sleep d. its been quite sometime since i had good quality sleep. i have been really busy since. CNY. half of the time i wont be home and i can dont see my parents for a few day straight.. nitez ppl

-cher-

Today is a special day

A very special day for both of us :) It was the day we decided that we wanted each other in our lives :)

It wasn't easy for us. There were doubts, barriers, objections. But we made it through all of it and here we are today, as strong as ever. He sacrificed everything for me. He let go everything for me. Thank you darling. I really appreciate everything that you have done for me.

And he said 'I will try my very best to make this relationship as perfect as possible :)'

Awwww <3



Happy 1st year anniversary darling <3 and many many more years to come hopefully :)




He looked me in the eye, and said 'I really have no idea what I did in my past life to be so lucky to have a gf like you.'

Seriously, I could feel the sincerity in his eyes. The way he looks at me. The way he tells me how much he appreciates me. And the guilt creeps in. On how I always scold him, how I always wants things to go my way. How I always lose my temper for no reason.

Haha I promise I will try to control my temper, learn to be a better gf okie? :P


Anyway, have fun while I'm not there to accompany you. Go play with your friends. And the next time we will meet again will be in Sydney okie okie?? I'm so looking forward to it!! 3 months will come and go really quick I promise :) And I promise you, I'll remain the same girl. I wont change. Not unless you change first (you remember the rules rite? ;p)




p/s : dont feel so insecure bout me being here k. You know I wont simply just fall for another guy just cause that guy likes me rite? Learn to trust me and to trust yourself also ok :)

失望。。。

唉。。为什么会这样子的呢？走了那么久，找了那么久，才找到唯一一件喜欢的。为什么会撞衣呢？还要是同一帮朋友呢？还有。。一件晚装不便宜呢！花了那么多钱买一件一样的。好失望。。。

how would feel. if u were to be in the same situation. what will u do if u are in my position now. wear?sell and try to get a new one? but the latter will be too much of a trouble. dilemma of life. sigh.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

that aside, there is only one word to describe my life now. BUSY... but it is in a good way...

more updates soon. when i have the time to sit down and write. judging by the last time i last blogged, it shows that i have really been busy that i cant even find the time to sit and write..

part of me wants to continue this occupied life. and part of me just want to rest.. can i have 48 hours a day instead?

and yes. 4 more months till i leave the country. and its finally my turn to leave. to lead a new life and to leave the ugly side of life behind.

till then.
-cher-

Random coz I'm bored

I'm bored. The weather is freaking hot. It's killing me. I swear I just sit here and do nothing and I can sweat like shit. Pls mannnnnn dont do this to me.


My apartment feels like an oven, till I had to go down and just chill on the sofas at the reception area. Cause they have aircond downstairs! :D Felt like heaven man omggg.. Haha I slept there, talk on the phone there. Did everything there because my room was seriously gonna drive me crazy :(


And my phone is driving me crazyy!!!! Arghhh!! Dear ahhhh save me from this shit please before I get so pissed and throw my hp down from the 14th floor. I feel like killing it already. From once a day to FEW TIMES a day now. Fuck it la ishhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!



Been staying at home for the past 2 days because I had no mood to go anywhere, all thanks to the heat. All I wanted to do was sit still and dont move. Haha I know I'm damn lazy la :P And because I'm damn freaking lazy to dress up to see the world. So i prefer to just sit home with my ah ma look and house clothes :P I even when Melbourne Central with my ah ma look once or twice :P

*At the reception area with my ah ma look and a patch on my head*
coz i had nothing to do. coz i was bored.

this is how super free I am and this is how miserable I feel about the heat!!!!!!!!!!



Oh and I ate my first ever KFC in Melb after 3 weeks. Omigod I miss KFC. I'm a hugeee fan of kfc la please. everyone knows that :P but honestly, kfc here sucks. Cant be compared to the ones in Malaysia lo. Plus its not cheap either. Haihhhh. Maybe I'll just stick to McD or Hungry Jacks. And kfc once in a while when I can't tahan :( And when I'm back in Msia, I'll spam kfc 99 :P

*My first kfc here hehe :D*

And I'm so full I dont feel like eating dinner la. Both my housemates went out. And oh we will be shifting to our new apartment on thursday. Still in Unilodge, just different floors and ofcourse a much much bigger unit :P Omg I can't wait laaaa like finally!!!! It better be good cause we're paying hell alot for the new unit. I'm gonna screw the fella if its not up to my expectation!!!!!!!


Everyone keeps telling us how they envy us coz we are staying like in the city. So convenient and all that but do you know much we're paying for this? Hell alot! I guess thats the price to pay for convenience and to live comfortably. And also good security? Haha so funny. I can view the CCTV downstairs from my own tv. So I can see when my room mate is coming back. Who is downstairs and all that XD LOL


Ok im done with being random. Classes starting tomorrow. 9 am. Shit. Gotta sleep early tonite. Oh and I think I lost weight since I came here. haha must be cause of too much walking and less eating. Wheee I'm happy cause my new year resolution is to LOSE WEIGHT!!!! :D
