Went Port Stephens over the weekend. Its at the north-east of Sydney. Beautiful beach, great weather, fresh oysters, but horrible people. :( Another bad experience. So my dad dropped us off at this fish and chips restaurant while he went to park the car. We were just slightly on the side of the road,and this car came by us and the driver said "This is the driver's side of the road". OKAY we were just walking into the restaurant and my grandmother cant walk fast. So wadeva la we ignored him. AND THEN he shouted at us "GET OFF THE ROAD!!" ...WTF?! The road is as wide as his shithole and we werent in the middle of the road..tamade! And he managed to drive off just in time b4 we could say anything. I was soo upset like i never got screamed at in public. But one guy who worked in the restaurant was like saying such people are not worth getting upset over. At least there are still nice people around.
Anyway, is a nice place apart from that incident. We went on a dolphin cruise because Port Stephens is supposed to be a dolphin territory. And according to their website, there's 99% success rate in dolphin sightings. A dolphin sighting is guaranteed or a free ticket to come again is given. Yea so after 90 mins of sighting FOR dolphins,we were given a free ticket return. No dolphins..not even a seagull. :(
The only dolphin i saw was the one behind me. Wind was sooo strong,nearly got blown off.No weird snacks here la haha this is Australia la not Thailand. But there's lots of thai restaurants and kebab here. Like everywhere you go..you're bound to see thai food and kebab. Other than that..its just steak steak steak and steak. Haha. The steak here is really not bad. You can just buy a piece of rib eye from the supermarket for less than 10 Aussie dollars,grill it yourself..and it tastes better than any Tony Romas in Malaysia or Singapore.
Uni applications..hmm my first choice to do commerce major in actuarial got rejected by UNSW, instead they gave me my 2nd choice which is food science. Not really keen on that..so UNSW is OUT..stupid university..go la go give all the prcs,no wonder your university looks soo dirty and smelly..okie not entirely through haha but wadeva. Anw,University of Sydney accepted me for electrical engineering, so did NTU and NUS. Hmm..tough decision and then there's Anu's actuarial to consider. But i guess since accomodation,meals and sai kang jobs(my sisters muahaha) are all catered for here in Sydney. It'll most likely be Usyd. :) But im quite scared..like what if engineering is not suitable for me,geee i dunno eh. I dont want to get stuck with something i suck at and then i cant graduate with honours. Nursing is good..there's plenty of job prospects out there..and its a high pay job! Sadly not my cup of tea. Hope you get it! I can totally imagine you in nurse uniform cleaning up people's shit. HAHA jk jk :)
I might be goin down Singapore one last time on the 21st of May. Hopefully the NS people would be out by then and we could all meet up! :)
Im reading lots and lots of books too..But they are all romance haha. One week in Sydney and i've already read three books from Melanie La'Brooy,an aussie author. My sis just got a nintendo DS and im addicted to this game called Cooking Mama 2! Its like you have to cook a dish and in the end you're graded for it and if you do well,you unlock another dish to cook. The cooking process is really fun. like cracking egg,slicing apple,peeling prawn,washing rice etc etc within the time limit. Hehe FUN! :)
I watched The biggest loser on aussie tv that night..nice meh? Its like very drama leh. Hehe anw i'm super free now so i'll just watch anything :) Alright im going gym now..muahaha hope i wont faint :) Tata!
