The Break is OVER

This week has been by far the most interesting, amazing, exhausting and hilarious week I've had ever. Nat and Liheng were down in Brisbane for 1.5 weeks, and it was really great having a part of home come down to visit. It was funny how our group of maybe 3-4 people slowly expanded with each night, such that by the end of the week we were sitting at tables with 10 people. I was telling Nat that when you're overseas, the amount of links and networks you draw up are pretty incredible, such that pretty soon you know everyone. Anyways, playing tourguide for a week is no joke, and I'm really glad we all enjoyed ourselves.

Ok picure time, because my brain is still slightly fuzzy from the after effects of all the events.

That's us at this awesome cafe called 3 Monkeys! I shan't elaborate more about finding the cafe, it was so embarrassing. After this photo we had 4 more people join us, and ended up with a kind of pseudo-wedding-dinner table setting. That was pretty interesting because we started as a table of 2 groups of strangers and were friends by the end of the night.

And duh, Brisbane city in the day. Don't you love those Simpson clouds?? Awesome right? But the weather throughout the week was retarded. When we decided to go to Movieworld on Monday it rained like Siyi's unstoppable leaking tap. Resulting in Nat and my shoes turning into mini canoes of water and very smelly, wet, wrinkled feet. After that day, it no longer rained. Siao one.


Movie World shot in front of Superman! I think I probably posted something similar last year in Sep considering what an awesome ride this is. Nothing can beat Superman Escape. Honestly promise confirm plus chop. And that's the bunch of us with an adrenaline-high pose after the ride. We wanted to go on one more time but, as I said before, the stupid rain just flooded in like nobody's business.
I'm impressed with my own photography skills man. Haha. Nah, how bad can a shot of a giant ferris wheel be? It's their version of our Flyer, just 3 times faster and slightly smaller. Looks awesome in the skyline though.

And Cons passed me paintings that are just SOOOOO gorgeous!!! I just fell 10 times happier everytime I look on them on my wall. Don't you think they look really zen and classy now that I stuck them on this way? Heh.. I suck at decorating rooms, can't stick stuff on walls properly for nuts, so I was really surprised they turned out looking great on my very very bare walls. Everyone loves the paintings Cons!! Thank you!


Guess what??? More colours!!! NAt and I went slightly deranged at the sight of coloured scrapbook paper and embellishments, we split the 'goods' cos I'll be preparing for my sister's scrapbook for the end of this year! Yay can't wait! :D:D
And I apologise but that's about as may words I can come up with. (Head still buzzing)
