Waiting for the fireworks to start...

My favs, fireworks.

Randomly took some pics, most in video form.

It happens along the yarra river... It didn't shoot very high, so quite big n low.

Ashes n smoke veing blown towards our direction... miss the times spendiing.

Sat the giant spin ride... fun. but one thing, too many insects crawling ard there.

Shall upload my video another dae.

Japan earthquake

Every morning when waking up and saw sunlight, thank god.
Be thankful that when u woke up and did not see any devastating views outside.
Hurts to hear disasters news (esp on a big scale like this time). Its everywhere on media. TV, internet, etc.

Heart goes out for those who are affected, and trapped in the recent japan earthquake/tsunami, that they are save and remain strong.

But one thing... the buildings in japan have very good construction!!! Due to earthquakes being common overthere, but not as large as this time. Most of the deaths are cause by the tsunami instead.

Hurts to see pple losing their family members/friends/etc.
Finally, be thankful of what you've got, and not take things for granted. =)

Its janice bdae!!!! 11march. Happy Birthday to You!!! XD

Peaches

2dae is a very tiring day...
had dairy lec from 1030-130pm, then rush down to lab for fruit n veg prac at 130pm.
Funny how douglas, manage to eat n walk at the same time... haha.

Although the prac is suppose to end at 530pm, but ended at 730pm instead. 2dae's prac is on the varieties of peaches for canning.
Super tired. due to washing, peeling, weighing, blanching, n walking in the huge lab, where things are placed at the far end of the lab. what wonderful design of this lab haf. lol.
N the number of peaches tt we needed to do all these steps, are at ard 20kg. wah...
everyone was tired n hungry...
But liz bought some icecreams!!! haha. then we ate it with the fruits there. such as mangoes n peaches.
Each of us brought home some fruits. haha. i brought home a mango.
Although it was a very tiring day. But everyone seems to have fun n are enjoying the whole prac session. N the demostrators n lecturer there were all patient n kind too.

Hope dairy lab is the same too.

Going to brighton beach to c the colourful small houses and luna park.

1st, got on the train at melbourne central and to alight at the 3rd last stop. ard 30-45mins ride i think, not sure. haha.
Got off brighton beach station, its a bright n sunny day... At first it was still cold in the morning. but towards the afternoon. weather getting hotter n hotter.

At brighton beach. but where's all the famous colourful houses??? mmmm...

So we walk along the beach area... water is very clear here. but sand not as nice as the one in gold coast. haha XD.

Saw many seagulls on the way...

Saw it!!! Far away... the colourful houses.

After some difficulty walking (sandy, narrow paths, etc), finally reached.

So beautiful!

Lecia n her jump shot. haha. i think i getting better at taking jumpshots pics. After practicing in sydney, by eve n lecia.

After brighton beach, walk a longgggggg way to find the nearest train station, which is middle brighton.

Actually wanted to go to st. kilda there for fish n chips, but... clever us, got down at dunno wat station and changing to a tram there. We blur blur waited for the tram replacement bus (no tram at this st.) for abt 30mins... nothing... then realized tt there's no tram service till 7pm. wahlao. waste time.

In the end, went back to melbourne city the chinatown there the korean restaurant named, da jang jing for lunch. (the 2nd time, eating here ever since come with my mum, which is 1yr ago). haha. the food here is quite nice.

My korean spicy rice cakes:

After lunch, went to the carnival at melb city behind QV there.
Lots of game store. Toys so big n seems tt it is quite easy to get. But not playing, cuz i dun want to win any prize, prize so big, cannot bring back sg. haha.

Another throw coin game:

Its actually a Greek carnival. There is this food called:

nv try b4, so bought n try... ok.. it is super sweet. n the donuts are heavy. inside there is some liquid thing. At 1st, find the taste weird. but after a few more mouth, it is actually not bad. haha.

After tt, still got time. Went to the luna park at st. kilda. Free entrance, so went inside to walk walk.

Some of the rides there:

Actually feel like taking one of the rides, but the single tix is so expensive of AU$9.50. if u not buying unlimited rides tix, which is AU$40+. So forget it, next time go back sg, maybe yr 2012 then go universal studios again, after more rides r added in.

Stomach very full le. haha. N super sleepy, esp when travelling on the trains n trams.

Went home after tt, load showsssss, msn... etc. n most imp sleep. haha.

Oya, juz now spotted a huge insect near my balcony. N its inside not outside... wah super scared. Looks like a grasshopper or some type of cockroaches. eeeeeeeeeeeee......

So scare tt it was still alive.

So i wore hand gloves + newspapers + broom n dustpan + insecticides.

Spray super alot on it, then realized tt it was actually dead. wah lucky. But the body is damn big n disgusting. i dun dare to touch it, took some time to sweep the body onto the dustpan while having a newspaper layer between me n the insect, n dumb it into the bin. I only ah xing after i throw away the letter containing the body. haha.

Tired day.. after watching my shows... off to bed early (i hope) hehe.
