so as not to make dimi feel cheated...

i have to post SOMETHING...
since i "lied" to dimi about posting something up soon.. haha... i thought id have lotsa time to do trivial things like uploading pictures of food and myself and putting nifty lil comments under them.. but now i have so many weird assignments to do... most of what i learn is still very airy fairy.
Anyway, i just found out that cassie (aka the machine) has been pooling people to tell me i suck, even though im this far away.. i think it can only be fair that i tell people back in malaysia to do the same..
hmm... so much has happened that i cant really remember things.. but Sydney's like a girl having PMS.. Sometimes its quite fun and nice, and sometimes you just sit down and said "THIS COUNTRY SUCKS!" .... more often than not, for me at least, is when u see stuff 9999x more expensive than in malaysia...

*looks at economy rice* AU$8.50..... wth... *makes mental calculation* 8.50x3 = RM25.50.
*equate with similar priced food* "i can eat lamb shoulder in chillies"

Look at thai food, price- AU$12-15 ... *mental calc*
RM36-45... the mean is around 40.. RM0.80 for 1 roti kosong..
*equate* i can eat 50 roti canai...

But im slowly evolving to be indifferent towards the price..
"Clothes Hanger for 1.99 got 10!! BUY!"
"WAH WATER FOR 57c!!! DAMN CHEAP" *ignores inbuilt currency converter*
"WOA!! AU$ 4 bucks for burgerr.. eat here everyday!" *same as above*
"Chinese food 7 bucks! not bad la..." *RM21 can eat 6 plates of char kuay teo*

hmmmmmmmm....
I might be going for medical camp this weekend.. but im still thinking about it coz its so expensive!!! its AUD180 for 3 days!! 3 freakin days! and the 1st day we leave Uni after classes at 5pm.. haihh... 180x3= 540.. OMG can stay hotel!
Then after that easter got Easter Getaway aka church camp... quite interested but again, AUD190!!.. but for 4 days... ^&*()(*&^%^&*()(!*@(#^&!@)#

Then of course ill definately be going for my divers license i think.. since i get a discount of AUD 280.. which means its around.. RM840.. which is AROUND msias price... just with less dives..

so far all u hear from me is money related...hahahaha...

Well the beaches are really nice, the sun increases potential of skin cancer, i dont have sunblock NOR shades, some people have very nice eyes... girls AND guys..
people dont look like what they are here.... if i threw u into the med lectures. u'd nearly never guess the aussies are med students... but if i put u in the Msia Medical lectures... u can see all the freaks there... here the only freaks are the asians.. lol ..
theres this girl who looks like... non nerdy.. but has a 99.5 percentile in HSC (alvl equivalent).. means shes the top of the Aus edu system.. (supposedly)
then when they're drunk, EVEN HARDER TO RECOGNIZE... they'll be bouncing around, peeing everywhere, guys will be jumping on girls laps and whatnot...
YET, theres a guy med student whose arm is in a cast, and when he was drunk,semi concious,hardly looking, eyes droopey, and with 1 hand, solved the rubics cube in less than 5 mins..
Rumours is that he's a math genius...
He looks like a freaking bum la ok!
Girls have guy names and guys have girl names..
oh and i have a bar in my uni..... thats weird isnt it?
and i play the frisbee now...
and COOK...


Anddd i gtg.. im late.. shall post some random photos up now.. c u guys soon!
ps- sorry the picture quality sucks... i only have a camera phone..
and im being inconsiderate by using up all the bandwidth upload all these... but its ok...
ill post quick comments.. this post took me nealry 1 hour what a long time!! arhghghg

We start with tourist shots of sydney... the pictures are by no means in chronological order...
Thats called "a port" and "the bridge"... nice clouds innit?


And that, floating in the ocean, is the sydney olympic stadium of music.. where coldplay performed back in 2001...


This is where they serve u thai food, followed by the removal of ur n*ts... its like AU$15 per plate... it also shows never to let girls choose the place to eat.. (i shared with the guy opposite me.. he ended up earning AU$3 for the meal thanks to unclaimed change)


This is to show why i dont really take photos with my super camera... thats hillsong's live recording of their new albumm!!!! (there were much more people than that o0k.. but lazy to upload crowds..)

More of the hillsong recording... There was guest appearance by Mike Gluggimuchi..where he sang "healer"... he looked so different from 2004..unrecognizable...


This is my favourite picture.. but somehow it landed in the middle of the picture post.. this is Maroubra beach... the "lousiest" of the 3 beaches.. but heck ... its still awesome..


waves... sky... mountain.. tranquil... free.. i like.. =)


Stonehedge.. or rather.. a pile of rocks and blocks of cement lodged into the ground under the facade that it is "art"... placed in a park near the city.. (and of coz, being the amused tourist we are... we stood on those pieces of art and took photos... but not my camera of course")


People sitting on the floor next to the street.. for what?


More people now standing, guys wearing hairbands and girl attire? why so gay?
(ps- the guy staring at the camera on the far left with his hand close to his mouth is NOT part of us and is SUPER gay.., like.. gross kinda gay... damn "teh" or "manja"... creepy)


So there... parading gay/lesbian/bisexual people.. i present to you.....

Mardi Gras 2008, Sydney


Pancakes on the Rocks, Never Closed. OoOooo
(in Malaysia also known as 24h, like all the mamaks.. but here, its something to brag about, since things close by 4-5pm... )

Of course the food is no where near mamak.. there are more pictures but lazy 2 upload... and ITS EXPENSIVE OF COURSE...


ps- some pictures are blur coz i forgot to take off the protective layer covering my handphone camera...
hope u enjoyed this post which robbed me of my time and ruined all my plans... byebye... :)
