no, sally can't wait.

i just realised that my last entry was heavily punctuated with exclamation marks. like, ! once every two sentences. i wonder what state of mind i was in whilst typing that entry. oh well.

it's getting pretty cold here again, tonight's 17degrees with wind.


this is a really cute house we saw on the way to cockling at Goolwa Beach. it was freezing cold in the water and the broken shells were really sharp. we did manage to catch about 30 odd cockles. it's hard work, you know. you have to dig really deep into the sand and actually look for them.

well there it is. our cockles. felt pretty bad eating them the next day for dinner, but well, they were just too delicious.

frozen toes for sale.

the weather has taken a drastic change from scorching hot to freezing cold. okay, probably 20 degrees with very strong winds. the type you can actually hear. 20 degrees may not be very cold but it is when you came, packed with clothes fit for very hot temperatures. i feel like i'm in the desert, minus the swirling sand that impairs your eyesight.

i've been cooking meals everyday i feel like i can be a michelin three star chef. okay, not that good but i think i'm talented! cause the food's yummy.

menu for today was,

lunch:
black pepper salmon
stir fried long beans with onions

dinner:
meatballs with sauce and jam (ikea style)
pasta!

okay, i admit. the meatballs were frozen and the sauce is ready made. but sis' friend loved the meal and said it was yummy. so yeah, confirmation for my flair for cooking.

okay. off to make hot milk for sis.

greetings from australia

okay so we're in aussie now. it's really really hot and sis does not have aircon. which really sucks. tried sleeping last night in the heat and ended up waking up in the middle of the night, sweating.

someone ended up taking our luggage bag. the most important piece of luggage we brought to adelaide, the one with allllll the clothes and underwear. luckily that certain someone returned it and we got it in the end.

things here are really different, people too. australia is a really pleasant place on the whole, with exceptions here and there. am two and a half hours ahead here in adelaide but it doesn't feel like it at all. sunset's at 8pm and even at 9pm, you can still see the glowing sky. it's no wonder we ended up having our dinner at eleven last night.

staying at the townhouse on sis' university campus. we're up on the hills so it's a really wonderful view from up here, especially at night cause we're overlooking the city, and at night, the whole city lights up. it's just beautiful!

went shopping at harbour town today. got clothes for really cheap prices! a top at five bucks and shorts at ten. but mok, i haven't found nice surf slippers for you yet. (:

started watching greys anatomy, from the first season, first episode. now i'm hooked. besides cooking, cleaning, doing the laundry, (and sweating alot), i watch GA. haha.

the stars here are very, very pretty!

(:

you'll be so high you'll be flyinggg.

i'm leaving tonight! and what a wonderful feeling it is.

haven't been to australia since i was really young so i'm looking forward to the trip. other than the fact that it's sweltering hot there now. (sis says it'll be 38 degrees celsius when we get there) man, just when singapore's starting to get cooler. oh well.

i expect i'd be blogging more when i'm there since i'd be stuck in the townhouse with big sis till she's done with her stuff.

i've fallen in love all over again with robbie williams! he's been on replay all day long.

okay i shall go continue packing now. i promise i'll be more diligent when i'm there.

oh, note to all. please don't expect me to bring back live kangaroos or koalas for you guys. i am in no way tempted to be caught by immigrations for illegal smuggling. anything else, show me the money!
