Last day in Sydney!!! 'Animals and Hotties' - Watchin'

For this entry, I will let the pictures do most of the talking..Lol...


Once again, the gals embarked on their journey of surprises and fun..

They sailed across the sea to reach their destination... First Stop - Taronga Zoo~



After 20 minutes, they reached their 'home'.....

and found their long-lost family...






and had a reunion with cuddly Nana Koala...




Made a few new friends..



Then, it was time to bid goodbye... *sob*......


After 2 minutes of emoness........

BONDI BEACH!!!!!!!!! Here we come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the gals

the funeral service of the poor crab...

the camwhoring

the lucky NING-ko

the super lucky NING-ko

Chong-ee and I

All the pretty ladies
(who says we need to be clad in bikinis or few tiny pieces of cloth to look good on the beach?)

the 'mei tuis' (translation: Pretty legs)

the happy beach-goers

Yay!

After hard-out partying in the beach, its time to say goodbye... (the wind was getting really chilly too...)


while Wira gets away with nice and pretty poses....

They always ask me to do the silliest poses..... hahahahaha....


Well, the day ended with a great note...

Dinner was....



................. GREAT!!!!!!!!!!

Sydney - Day 4

Day 4 was a slightly for relaxing day..

Popo had to work, so Chong-ee had to babysit Wira and I... And she did her job so well! *hugz*

We had fresh seafooooooooood... YUM!



We had some casino royale moments... (with the not-hot-but-a-bit-gatal security guy trying to flirt with us... -.-'')

This pic was taken by a poor guy whom we ambushed (he looked so shy and...somewhat scared... while his friends were busy giggling away...haih... what's so funny anyway?) outside the casino


We had some ridiculously cheap souvenir shopping (too busy buying stuff and neglected the camera..hehehe)

And, we rejoined Popo after work.. at Macquarie Centre...



*scratches head* what else happened??? Searching for traces of memories in this tiny brain of mine...........

The following is not in sequence...

We were scolded by the lady bus driver who got annoyed by the sudden screaming of the girls after i said something silly... She actually stopped the bus just to give us a word or two... goshhhh.... *malu siren ringing*

Wira was told off by an old man when we were about to leave KFC... To be exact, his words were 'your skirt can't get any shorter huh...' *malu siren ringing again*

Our bus was bombarded by 10... i repeat 10 transport officers (don't know what are they called exactly... Those that just hop in and out of buses to check whether passengers purchased the right tickets instead of mis-using concessions)..... Heng... We were safe....

Met Sabrina on our way back and she joined us in the bus... But due to Sabrina's over-enthusiasm in her story-telling, the lady who sat opposite her rose up to change her seat!!!!! *malu siren went crazy!!!!!*

aigoooo.... That's Day 4 for you

Sydney at its best! (Day 3)

Finally, a day with pure good weather! Oh yeaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

It's time to make our presence known in the city!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All geared up, the girls started another wacky adventure of theirs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



The Guide To A Wholesome Sydney Exploration During Summer

First stop - The infamous harbour bridge and the opera house~

Lesson 1: Get a gelato


Lesson 2: Dress 'summery'


Lesson 3: Bring cameras and shoot away

Lesson 3.5: Do not say 'no' to an old couple who offered to take a picture of you even though you have companions who can do it for you... Just comply and make them happy...

photo taken by the kind old couple


Lesson 4: Don't be shy when posing for the camera.. No one knows you and no one cares... In the end, its the pictures taken, and the memories captured that matter.


Lesson 5: Apply TONNES of sunblock if you prefer vanilla rather than caramel~


Second Stop - the Park and the Church (Can't even remember the names....... uh ohh..)

Lesson 6: Master the umbrella and protect the skirt during windy days...

omg!!!
wira *turn around*
pinky *save ur ass*

Lesson 6.5: Do not talk about ass, panties, and holes loudly and shamelessly without realising an old man was chuckling away behind.............. -.-'''



Lesson 7: Pose for more pictures


Lesson 7.5: Wait for the hot-looking jogger and ask him to take picture for you ;)

pic taken by the shy, but hot guy... even though it didn't come out as good, it's the effort that matters ;)


Lesson 8: Just have fun and be silly =P






Third stop - the Restaurant! (if you haven't realised, i'm bad with names...)

Lesson 9: Camwhore while waiting for food


Lesson 10: Eat and be merry


Lesson 11: Go for a nice stroll after dinner


Lesson 12: Do not wear too 'summery' if you will be out till late... You might be the next marilyn monroe


Lesson 12.5: Do not curse about the weather and the skirts so loudly without realising a few passersby were laughing to their hearts' content...



Basically, that day has been a humiliating day at its best... We managed to humiliate ourselves so many times that we were even surprised by our ability to humiliate ourselves....... hahahahaha.... I guess only the girls will remember those moments for a long long while...............

Misadventures continue... Day 2

After an unforgettable first day in Sydney, we started our new day with high spirits... that didn't seem to last long... just because the rain decided it's a wonderful day to visit the city with us... how nice......gahhhhhhhh....

Well, without dampening our spirits further, we had a lovely breakfast of deliciously-wicked brownies (baked with love by the babes), bread, ham, and a high dose of morning chatter.. Gosh, those were awesome moments... and we were LOUD.... hahahaha....


After that, we had a mini send off for Diren, our 'macho-looking-but-can't- help-dropping-a-tear-or-two' senior... In another 8 months or less, that would be us.... double gahhhssssss....


After the 'emoness', we headed of to the city, which is approximately 1 hour away... *woohoo on the outside, grumbling in the inside*


Since God decided to further test our patience before allowing us to act all mad in OZ by sending Mr Rain, our choices became seemingly limited... So we explored Queen Victoria Building, a super-chio shopping mall, with a touch of victorian feel (trying to talk classy here... hahaha...)



The best part of the mall trip was the super-duper chio swaroski christmas tree!!! Imagine a four or five storey high Christmas tree decorated with swaroski crystals, looking all bling bling and inviting...

Straight away i went into my lulu mood and wanted to 'steal', errrr ... 'have a closer look' at the crystals before Super Popo held me back and pointed at the bunch of cctv surrounding the tree.........................Mission failed.. *sulks*



The worst part of the mall trip...... everything is bloody expensive!!!!!!!!!!!! Since we're not born as trust fund babies, neither have any socialites potential, we decided to acknowledge our modest position, and pass by those shops with ..errr.... style...................

After feeling frustrated for not being able to shop without a care..*chuckles*... we went to the sydney aquarium! Remember people... it was raining mercilessly.............

To our pleasant surprise, the aquarium turned out fun after all!





ANd for some reason, Super Popo and Super Chong-ee switched to pro photographers mode and decided to do a documentary on fish and sea life....... *shakes head looking at Super Popo trying to snap a perfect picture of the mischevious clown fish as she was technically kneeling down and switching various positions just to 'catch up' with that 'finding nemo' fish............ hahaha........



After a day with sharks, corals, starfish and sting rays............ we were FAMISHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We looked like starving zombies, with Super Wira eyeing the popcorn stall lustfully............lol...... So we met up with Ning Ko, and walked to our food paradise (have i mentioned that we walked a LOT for the whole day? And those places are not even near to each other............)

The korean bbq and seafood pancake were lovely.... the hot guy nearby was lovely too......... lol....

But my oh my, if cost of living in Auckland is high...... Sydney is crazier..... our standard price for eating out is roughly 10 bucks each, but theirs is double the price... *calculating currency change some more....... aigoooo*




Somehow day 2 ended rather peacefully....... hmm...... does that mean our adventures are gonna take a nice turn now? *fingers-crossed...*

The Misadventures of the Five Super Gals - Day 1

Had a lovely start for the day today, so was in the mood to blog... while savouring prefectly sweet, seedless, Chile grapes, I was flicking through my many photos of my OZ trip... *pause*... aha... Thus i found the topic of my new entry!

To start off, let me just give a brief background information about the purpose of the trip.

Well, long long time ago (4 years to be precise..lol), a group of 130 innocent beings were caught and trained in this secret faculty called IPBA...
In order to make us into tough individuals, they put us in termites-infested apartments, cramping 12-14 of us in a dorm with only 2 working toilets.


In order to make us fast, they post time sheets on the special wall at random hours, and have us push around, run through shortcuts, and play dirty just to put our names on our preferred time slots.

To promote survival of the fittest, they cramp all assignments due dates to a same period of time, and have us struggle and fight our fatigue, and see who can survive....

Well, amidst those trials and tribulations, a group of girls stood together, side by side, helping each other through those inhumane experiences...

BUT!!!! These group of girls, were later separated into two different continents of the world, just because the "Administrators" sensed their strength and power... and ability to lead a rebelion...

Even so, distance was never a problem... Not especially when girl powers are involved... This is a story of how powers were united, chaos were created, when Super Wira and Super Lulu, flew over 2153.61km to rejoin Super Chong-ee, Super Popo, and Super Pinky!!!!

Introducing... the main characters...

from the city of sails,

Super Wira
Super Lulu (me ;p ) from the harbour city,

Super Chong-ee


Super Popo and Super Pinky _______________________________________________________________ Let the tales of the misadventures begin.... Day 1

Super Wira and Super Lulu were super excited!!! The thoughts of painting the town red with the gals drove their adrenaline high... and images of seeing the girls shriek and wave frantically in the airport, put smiles on their faces....

Or so they thought...

They reached the airport with beaming smiles... Went to the nearest toilet to freshen up.. Then marched to the arrival hall in style........

"Eh, mana pompuan-pompuan tu???" ...

Instead of a fantasy welcoming like this...

... we had strange stares from people holding cards written with "Welcome Caroline" or some random korean names.... *clears throat*.... Couldn't have been better...

Later, Super Lulu decided to text Super Chong-ee... And within minutes, some estatic screaming voices were blaring from my phone...

To cut the story short, the girls were happy that we arrived, they apologized for being late due to train delays, they reassured us that they love us to bits, they tried to coax us to wait for 1 more hour, and they tried to bribe us with a free Mcdonald meal...... hahahahaha.... Oh well, there's nothing we could do, but to bitch about them being so mean to us while waiting....

and camwhoring seems to be a fun activity.... followed by spacing out....

well... they did arrived after 1 hour.... and they were like waving, and screaming, and being all excited... while the two of us were just staring at them lazily from our seats.... *hmmm... seems like the roles had been reversed..lol*

But still, we managed to fill the trains and the buses with our loud, sampat, Manglish throughout our journey to Marsfield... To be honest, Super Wira and Super Lulu has actually turned mild and civilised during their stay in Auckland (due to the influence of their super goodey seniors), but the other girls didn't seem to have change much (looking at Diren, its pretty much understandable)... and we actually got a cultural shock...hahahaha.....

So for the first night, it was just about settling down for the day...

Super Chong-ee and Super Popo cooked up a feast for us...

and we thought the day would end peacefully........

or so i thought.......


That night was raining heaviliy and it got pretty chilly at night... So Super Lulu decided to turn on the heater in Iner's room (we managed to have a room each cause our babes, Iner and Farizah are in Brisbane and lent us their beautiful rooms)...

Little did i know that the heater was actually faulty... some burning smell came out of it... and the next thing i know... the freaking FIRE ALARM was blaring like nobody's business!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Super Lulu was panicking as her friends were like staying a few blocks away and she kept having pictures of fire engines surrounding her room and a big whip of 2000 bucks will be gone just like that.... it was definitely NOT COOL............

Super Lulu tried to grab her senses and frantically opened up all d windows to let the smoke disperse, pulled out the heater from the power, n fanned the smoke detector...Finally d crazily loud alarm stopped after 10 not-so-cool minutes... when Super Lulu called up Super Chong-ee, she apologized for forgetting to inform about the heater.... At least my 2000 bucks were still safely intact with me......

And I couldn't sleep in peace that night...............

What a way to start of our misadventures........ hahahahahaha......... And that was just Day One.... ;)
