Pulang Kampung ..

If things go as plan, I'll heading "home" to my growing up place in 3 months time, which is I'll be spending Christmas and possibly New Year in the land down under .. yay! :D

This was totally take me by surprise, I did plan for a trip to Aussie in 2010 for my best friend's wedding but since this trip will be about 6 months in advance, I'm sorry B .. I guess I won't be attending your wedding, but miracle happens, so hope by then I have enough saving to go there again and witness your special day ^^



My trip this time will be a family trip .. my cousin (first grand child from my mom side) will be getting married in Hunter Valley - Wine Country, it's indeed a beautiful place. It's located about 2 hours drive North of Sydney. She has picked an awesome place, though it would be even more beautiful if she could pick in Autumn/Spring season to have her wedding instead of Summer, 'cos Summer in Australia is just too hot and dry .. anyway, this wedding would be a big reunion for my mom's family from all over the world as well, we will indeed gonna have a good time.

And surely I'll be heading down to Wollongong .. place I can still call home .. I'm so looking forward to see my friends there again and reminiscing those special moments. I'm also gonna be a tour guide for most of my family who has never been to Aussie .. Sydney and Wollongong in particular.


I really hope that 2 weeks would be enough for me to have that reminiscing feeling of being home after 7 years.

5 days to go ..

'till One Tree Hill Season 7 begins .. can't wait!! Now that Nathan is with the NBA, it's gonna be awesome .. but too bad no more Lucas and Peyton. Hope they would pop in every now and then ..

五月天 First Concert

My first MayDay concert was great .. the concert itself was actually awesome though sadly I didn't feel the hype 'cos I was pretty much lost with the songs, only few were familiar in my ears. But I enjoyed it ..

This was my 2nd time step foot in Singapore Indoor Stadium, of course it felt different .. the first was back in Oct 2006 for Heroes of Earth concert. Back then I could feel the hype even before the concert. This time, I was looking forward for it, but at the same time I felt something missing.

As for the crowd, this MD concert was definitely smaller than LH's back then, there were still lots of empty seats but becos it was a rock concert, you can actually feel the hype-ness from the fanatic fans. There were lots of fast songs and the fans were jumping, screaming and sang along with them.

I was practically a silent audience .. other than I don't know most of the songs, the guys were all speaking in Chinese which I was lost once again, I picked up bits and bits but overall I was pretty much out there. Though one thing I like the most was during the L.O.V.E shout out and how the guys warmed the stadium, it was amazing! It was different than LH's or DT's concert.

The concert went 'till 10 mins passed midnight .. it was surely an experience. Afterwards we headed to the usual supper place MD guys always go when they are in SG, but too bad we didn't see them.

Anyway, these are the best pics I took during the concert .. and somehow I liked these, it's not close up but it shows the whole stage with all of them on it. Well, what more you could get from side seat :)

Sweet treats from Japan

A friend from work just got back from his partying trip in Japan and brought us these sweets. These are some interesting flavour of KitKat .. they are original KitKat (red), Lemon Vinegar (yellow-white), Mango (yellow-red) and lemonade (blue). Imagine sprite flavour in a chocolate .. hmmm .. yummo!

I have yet to taste any of these, but it sounds interesting. Thanks Ndi.

Bankrupcty

My 6 days trip in SG resulted me with bankruptcy .. these are just parts of what I spent .. but a friend said that as long as the things you bought not available in Indo, then you're fine. Well, thanks man .. :)

My new-added collections of My Melody

And my original Season 4 of One Tree Hill .. yay!!

On my last day of the SG trip, I checked-in to the hotel and guess what there was a DVD player in the room. What could be better watching Nathan in action in a quite decent hotel room .. alone :D

.. and make-up expert too?

So not only he is a musician, a designer he is now a make-up artist/expert too?! Interesting ..

I (Finally) went to Singapore

Well .. you know what people said that you haven't been to Singapore if you haven't visited the Merlion .. so yes, after my countless visits, I "finally" went to Singapore ..

I spent most of my times in SG alone this time .. I took my time to browse one place and move to another when I had enough, it's good to really enjoy your alone time like that.

So on Sunday, I went to take Singapore River Cruise with my childhood friend - Tep ... I got 3 free tickets from Lia (thanks De) .. night cruise is always better with the beautiful lights and under the stars. It'd be romantic with a guy we love of course, but since that hasn't been accomplished yet, nothing better to spend it with your best friend right?

Other than the Merlion and Esplanade, we went pass this gorgeous hotel .. The Fullerton Hotel which used to be a post office in those British era. Wonder how much to stay there a nite ..
