Hiya!!! Inire's back!!!!

Hahah!!! First time not going through chinese new year here. I went to Australia with my family for 6 days!!!! There, we met up with my Godfamily!!! YAYSSS!!!! We got our own apartment, courtesy of my good 'sis' ^^ We prepared everything and got ready for our first walk...

Day 1
We went to Manly Beach. We got onto 'second sis and in law's' car and got our way to the beach from Artarman where we stay. My parents got into my godparents' car. You know, in Australia only max five in a car and all must wear seat belts, else kena fine $180. PAIN!!

Anyway, walked along the beach towards some really famous fish & chips shop. Then, w00t!!! 'sis' turned around and pointed at the beach, "There's one there." What else could it be? A woman topless on resting on the beach!!!!! Climax over, went to the shop, purchased the food after all the parents arrived. Walked towards a table along the beach and we all sat down and enjoyed the food. Played with the seagulls, feeding and yet chasing them away. Haha, it was fun!! After that, we walked along the beach for quite some time and at last went back. There was a bad sun burn on all of us. Proof we've been to Australia =D

Had dinner in an Italian restaurant. 'Elder sis' joined the crowd. Godfather ordered whole lot of food.. and wow!! They were different from here!!! The food are so Italian-ish, and I loved the Marinara!!! We traveled to the Australia China Town after dinner. 'elder sis' was the driver, other than my godfather!! In China Town we walked about and saw the huge crowd celebrating chinese new year!! It was very very packed!!! Had a supper in some chinese restaurant, and then went back to the apartment. That ends this day

Day 2
We used the very useful, well-planned, clean, fantastic, no sound pollution, fast, big, etc etc train from Artarman to Town Hall. Seriously, the train there is far better. We walked from the Town Hall station to the market... ermm... I forgot what's the name.. crap! Anyway, we had a few walk there shopping.

After that we got to QVB (Queen Victoria Building)!!! The old but grand building. We just had a short walk in there, but wow... it hasn't changed much in 7 years... still as old as it was XD but it looks new... haha!! Then, we went to The Rocks, where there were more things to shop on. Saw quite a lot of weird things there, eg kangaroo's balls... fake la!!! But that's the label ^^

Then, we went to the ever famous Sydney Opera House!! Lalalala!!! Hahaha!! Got a few pics and rested in front of the Opera House. It was really really windy up there. It was as if that the wind itself could blow us off anytime. After the rest, we walked back towards Circular Quay. We bought bottles of water there... and HECK was it expensive!!!! $3 for a bottle... T_T Dinner was at a hong kong cha chan teng. It was really nice, the food. That sums up that day.

Day 3
This day was spent in the Wildlife park and Aquarium in Circular Quay. We took a "Captain Hook Explorer" cruise to look around the water view of sydney, on the way to the place.

After the aquarium, we got back. Dinner was at some really great restaurant. There were steak and pasta and all. It was really magnificant! That's about it for the day.

Day 4
HOLY CRAP!!!! THE WORLD'S BIGGEST SHIP JUST DOCKED AT SYDNEY!!!!!! WEEEEE!!!! QUEEN MARY 2!!!!

So, we walked to Fish Market first to have our lunch there. It was quite a walk... Hot.. blazing and all... reached there anyway... Had a whole bunch of seafood, and a lil bit of wine... I got drunk... =.=" Haizzz... At my drunken state, walked all the way to the other end of Sydney to see the gigantic ship.

*puff* *puff* ouch... tired.. ouch... hahah... Well, it WAS a long way... Had a look at the big big big big big ship... then, went back.. It was really huge, k.. Then, on the way back, we had a look at the Magnificant Art Gallery. There were quite a lot of things in there.. Then, we went to the St Mary Cathedral... That was a really great cathedral... I love their structures... always did ^.^

We got back, rest-ed, dinner at some chinese restaurant and back to sleep. That's it!!

Last day
Nothing much today. Just preparing to go back. Goodbye Australia... God knows when I'll see you again *sob* Took off at 3 something. That was my trip to Australia.

Oh, yeah, saw this cool water tap.

Turn then press, and it comes out. Guess whether it's hot or cold? Answer is cold ^^

Another lonely valentine's day...
That's just dumb. Stupid Alex, influence me pula... It's another college life day, so nothing really special about today for me... No valentine... sad kan?

Anyway... first class was calculus and we had OUR VERY FIRST TEST!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!! I can't believe I can't do maths!!!! I think I'm gonna fail it!!! WAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!! There's all the complicated answers. I wanted to get full marks so badly that I did tonnes of stupid mistakes!!! GARGH!!!! STUPID ME!!!!!

Enough with calculus, Accounts passed by easily, then there was homework for esl, which was crap... ahh... life's been so harsh on me XD

Went to dear cousin's house to have lunch, hung around there for some time, then it was time to get back to college. Here's the fun part. My really funny cousin came up with the idea of singing out loud + blasting the music + car windows down while driving. We went from one song to the other. Seriously, accident could have happened >.< haha... In a way it was fun. It was more of shouting than singing. And when we finally parked the car. I found the song huo yuan jia, and that was the start of the insaneness. We waited for the song to reach that part, wind down window... and start to shout huo huo huo huo huo huo huo huo! hahaha... we realised later on that the street was actually quite quiet... OOPS!!!!

Then we had MS. wasnt much of anything there. then went home la... That was my another year's valentine's day. Well, I really hope that she enjoys her valentine... be happy always... see ya!

Flying through the clouds for the first time ever. I felt true freedom, with lots of places for me to venture, and all to my heart's content. I glided pass the thick white clouds, the feeling of it was so soft.

Then, I came out to an open air, where the blue sky was infinitively high, and there was not a single cloud amidst it. It was at this time, I felt your soul. I shut my eyes... and i could hear it, faint... but it was there -- your heartbeat...

It made me think back.. when was it that you were gone? I really wished that I could just see you once more... No, not once... to be with you forever. I knew that was impossible. Your gentle hands, I want to grasp it once more. Your sweet smile... I would like to see it again.

I was really down, when I heard you were gone. It was as if a part of me had been forcefully taken away from me. But it won't be like that anymore... I have come to look for you... and we will always be together from thence... I can hear you... Can you feel me??

I still can't forget you...

Little by little
Over every moment we were together
Venturing deeper into each other's hearts
Engraving memories inside our very souls...

Your touch remained in my heart
Over your threshold I went,
Until that day came...

Sending you my best wishes
To your time with your ever beloved
I tried to forget all of this, but,
Little by little
Living without you hurts deeply even now...

When will I see you again?
So much in hope for that day...

It feels odd... without facing you in this lonely world...

Dear,

I've been collecting pieces of my heart for quite some time already. When I was pretty sure there was none left to be picked up, I found out that there were some pieces that remain lost...

From the moment I noticed the missing pieces, your image had been appearing in my mind till now. It wasn't that significant at first. Thought it was just my dream playing with me. Then, it got worse. I long to meet you again. I guess you could use the word "miss"... I really missed you... When will I see you again? Do you still remember me?

Sigh... What is this that I'm feeling? I really ought to toss it aside and go on, but it is tough... I tried, but your face, your voice... they seem to revolve around me like a vortex. I couldn't talk to you, couldn't see you, couldn't get any news of you. All this made me feel crushed, I don't want to... but I can't help it...

I wish you all the best in your new life. May your path bring you to happiness forever...

Signed,
Inire
