Not much different=)

~Gathering~
I cant, remember when was the last time we had it.
Although only 15 of us were there yesterday, but i was happy=)

It has been 7 years yet i don't feel much different among us.
We still talked quite a lot when we met yesterday~
We still can recognize each and everyone's faces clearly~

It was a last minute thing ya know?
From planning to calling until the gathering ends, it was still within 24 hours ^.^
Given more time, i know surely more people can show up=)

Oh well, that night brought back endless childhood memory and hopefully we can make it once every year~
I think the next one will be when those from overseas come back for holiday?

Anyway
Big thank you to
Melvin(Goh), Wai How, Melvin(Wong),Zhen,Popiah,Andy,Jasle,JiaYi,YenFun,ChiaChee,Olivia and Chuan for showing up=)

Thx Jasle for the photos =P

My Christmas so far =)

I know i have not been posting anything for quite a long period of time.
Seems that i don't post much during holiday xD

By the way,
Its Christmas today!=)

I wonder how everyone else is celebrating this festive season but it has been half a day now and my day was just plain and dull...

I remember i used to looked forward to Christmas when i was younger,
hoping that i would celebrate Christmas like those i saw in various Christmas movies~
Well, even something like Home Alone will be interesting=P
Christmas tree, amazingly beautiful lighting all over, people smiling to you whenever you go, presents everywhere!

Haha, these are just dreams though....
I never really celebrated Xmas before....
Haha~ wonder why? =P

Now that i think back,
Christmas is just another festival or holiday like every others....
A day for us to rest i suppose?
A day for you to gather with friends?
Well, sadly~ all my close friends were no where near me yesterday and today =(

I do glad that i went for a short dinner gathering with my old classmates yesterday...
It might be normal, but glad that i am keeping in touch=)
Haha, we even brought simple gifts to exchange with each other~
Seems childish but, i think its another way of keeping in touch? who knows?

Was suppose to went movie marathon with Ken today,
but he was sick........again....=.=
For the last 2 months, i think he have been sick for 3 or 4 times!
Wonder what happened.....Get well soon ya mate=)
So, i have been checking out facebook and youtube for the whole afternoon....
Haha, not doing anything serious today, pathetic huh?

Jingle Bell~ Santa Claus~ Presents~ Christmas Carol~

Hey, its Christmas and i do hope everyone enjoy their day~

Wishing everyone a festive and jolly Merry Christmas!
Cheers!!

Part 5:Moving Around Sunshine Coast

Day 6 was a tiring one as we travel to Sunshine Coast and went to quite a number of places....Lucky me, i can sleep in the car=) Early morning, we arrived Beerburrum,a small town somewhere near the famous Steve Irwin Australia Zoo...
The reason we were there? To conquer Mt. Beerburrum xD


It wasn't hard as its just 278M...
We only have to walk around 800M but it wasn't easy as not all of us are young!
We walked for 30 minutes or 45 minutes and donated large amount of blood to the local mosquitoes xD

The peak?There is a watch tower up there for us to climb up=)

The scenery?Very rewarding for me!

After that, we travel to A Australia rain forest scenic reserveWe had a pleasant walk in the forest there as various kind of different birds chirping all the time!
So nice~

We also spotted quite a number of wild Wallaby Cute?

We had our picnic there after the walk, enjoying the environments while eating....relaxing=)

After having our lunch, we headed to another small town nearby to this candy store
See those large lollipops hanging there? They were huge!
There were a lot of different candies there, making us don't know which to buy xDMum with candies=)

Went to the world largest ginger factory as well
Bought a number of ginger products, had the amazing ginger ice-cream which was super nice andI had my nicest ginger beer there too!

After that, we went just opposite of the street to the macadamia store
bought some macadamia products as well!

It was near evening already and we went to the beach at Sunshine Coast~
We spent some times playing there and after that went for dinner~

In Chinese is a name of HongKong place but it is Malaya Corner in English=.=
I was quite reluctant to eat there at 1st butAmazingly the food wasn't bad at all~
The portions were super big however xD

Guess what is this~
LEMON COFFEE!
IT SUCKS!! LMAO xD

Thats pretty much ended day 6=)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Playing with the Waves in Gold Coast Part 4

Headed to Gold Coast on the 4th day ^.^
My cousin have a conference at Surfer Paradise so we drop him there early in the morning and headed to the beach~

Along the way~
Cool houses

It was just 8.30AM but it was already freaking hot~ I mean FREAKING!
I am just gonna show some images of the beach=)



I love beaches~We took a group photo

After that everyone hide under the shade right away=.=


I don't really care about the sun~
So i just walk along the beach with my brother=)
The sand was white, soft and so so so tiny~ made me felt like lying down
However, the water was icy cold xD

They pretty much spent most of the time in the souvenirs shops while i wander around~

Around 11AM we headed to
The famous Movie World!
Will cover it later though =)
Wait and stay tune ya!

We pretty much spent the day there until 4.30PM
After that, they drop me to the hotel where my cousin was having his conference and they went home as i will be staying with my cousin in Gold Coast~

He got me a ticket to his dinner with a few hundreds of scientists around the world.
So we had our dinner at The Australian Outback Spectacular, just beside Movie World=.=

It was pretty cool and fine dinner but i wasn't allowed to take any photos there=(
Everyone were basically seated in an arena like place and they have performances in the middle while we had our 3 course meal on top! The performance was mostly about The Outback of Australia, giving you ideas of The Outback~
Oh, The Outback is like the Wild West of the Australia ok?

After a very fine dinning, we headed back to the hotel and went to the beach=)
Hang out with my cousin there~ We sat down on the sandy beaches and talked a lot~
It was so comfortable!

There were quite a lot of police patrolling though as it was schoolies week~
ya know, to avoid teenagers making out on the beach xD

The other day, we pretty much hang out on the beach again~
Playing with the waves was so so so fun! xD
The whole beach was crowded with people sunbathing~

To those who are afraid of sun or a tan, please don't go to the beach with me as you might spoil my mood! lol

After we had our lunch,
err we had Irish food=)
NICE!

We headed back with public transport.
You can go on buses or train with the same ticket as long as your destination is the same


We had fun=)
Arrive back to Kangaroo Pt at around 7PM on the 5th day
Realize that all the other guys did not visit anywhere but the supermarket for the whole day!
Pity my little brother~ must be so damn boring! xD

Sorry for not updating daily xD
I stayed in Gold Coast yesterday with my cousin as he had a conference there...
Just the two of us though~

So,two days ago which was the 1st of December~
It was my cousin's PHD graduation ceremony =)
It was on the afternoon so we basically hang out at the housePlaying table tennis
&
Making pasta~ New Zealand Aunt's recipe haha~

So we headed out to The University of Queensland's St Lucia Campus at around 12 in the noon.
Here are some images of the campus itselves Main Entrance
Field and Tracks, there is actually an Olympic size pool, 12 tennis courts, beach volleyball court, basketball courts, etc..... Lazy to upload lar! haha
The Main Building~ Over 100 years old
They even have this mobile science lab which i think is pretty cool!

That was what we saw on the way to the hall by the way~
After that each of us were given a ticket to enter the hall for the ceremony~
The ticket~
We buy flowers on the spot~

Took quite a number of photos~
Really quite a lot=.=
This is my cousin btw xD


After all the photos, we headed in to wait for the ceremony....
The Hall

Well, graduation ceremony~
nothing much to talk about~ basically short speeches and then proceed with the awards...
BORING!

Stayed inside for one and a half hour and we were all done!
There was a short refreshment provided and thats it with the whole thing~
We basically visit the whole campus for photo sessions and a lot of photos were taken~
The campus was really nice, it would be great to be able to study there!

So........er..........
We basically take photos for like 3 hours? i don't really know~

However, we went to a place nearby the campus to have our dinner after that~
Just a small lot~
FISH & CHIPS!Thats a lot of CHIPS! xD
Basically, one set came with a starter which was a lot of chips and calamaris, main course of the fillet with your liking with a lot of chips again, and also a big bowl of salad of your choice~
We ate so so so so much!
It was really nice~ the chips were real good! The fillet too!
Of course, we have white wine with us xD

Something really interesting though~
SMILING at me =)
