Just For FUN!!!

P/s : I hope the actors and actresses involved will not read my blog :P

Got pissed!!!

Today, I went to Midvalley for lunch with my buddy, Sharon, who's working there. I took the train to Midv and arrived early. So, decided to loiter around while waiting for her lunch break. At around 2.15pm, she arrived and we went for lunch at Chili's. I've always wanted to try out at Chili's for a long time but always couldn't make it because some people are 'airplane kings and queens' who always FFK me :P. Well, finally have the chance today. Yippie!

My Fish & Chips

Sharon's Tequila-Lime Fish Steak

The food were okay with bottomless soft drinks, fruit juices and potato chips. And they serve BIG dishes. I couldn't finish my chips. LOL! However, fish and chips here is not as nice as what I had in Fremantle. The first three bites were still okay but after the fifth bites onwards, I felt like swallowing chunks of fried flour! But I would highly recommend tequila-lime fish steak, which comes with vegies and rice. That's very yummy and fishylicious, for me laa.

After lunch, I took the train home. The KTM today was not too crowded. Perhaps it was still early. But when I reach South Lake station, holy Mary mother of Jesus, the station suddenly became so so so overly crowded with people blocking at all train exits. Imagine during a fire emergency, there's only one fire exit and all the people are pushing their ways through the tiny opening. That's how it was!

I was supposed to be the first to get out as I was standing near the door for the entire journey. But heck! Those barbarians outside were trying to pry open the train's doors even before it stopped! Can you imagine how horrible they were? They were like those zombies in Resident Evil, trying to bite and infect another uninfected human being! My goodness! When the train has stopped completely and the doors were opened, needless to say, they immediately dashed in. There's not only one or two of them but a lot! Perhaps around 20-30 per entrance!

There were several students behind me, also struggling to get out. I couldn't squeeze myself out and shit, the doors were about to close. Logically, I can always get down at the next station and get my train back. But what made me angry was that those retarded freaks were very uncivilized and barbaric. I got pushed back in! They should let the passengers get out before boarding the train. I shouted "Excuse me" but no one bothers. Then all of a sudden, I exclaimed, "Fuck off, fuckers!!!" For a moment, I thought I was going to be punched or slapped or something like that. But surprisingly, those barbarians suddenly gave way and kept apologizing "Sorry! Sorry!". Just like a dog!!! Forgive me for being so rude. But hey, with these people, I don't have to be polite at all! It's not that I like to criticize them. Sigh ... I'm getting even more anti- m people (if you know who I mean) now! Alright, I better stop this topic. Very sensitive issue.

I then stormed out of the train very stylishly (eherm) followed by the few students just now. Two of them even thanked me for helping them to open the way! What the hell! Well, I just smirked and walked on by.

Never in my life had I been so furious
Never in my life had I lost my temper in front of strangers
Never in my life had I scolded someone with vulgar words
And never in my life had I been so ....... audacious. Haha!

Perth Getaway Season Finale

Wakie, wakie! Get up and get changed! Bring along your jacket. It's rather cold today. We have a few places to go. Do you know where our first stop of the day is? Alright, I'll give you a hint : I'm a chocolate maniac. Got it? Did you say going to buy chocolates? Damn smart! Yes! We're going to a chocolate company, Margaret River Chocolate Company, to be exact. This company, or rather factory, is located at Swan Valley, which is quite far, I would say. It provides free chocolate tastings and there's a viewing window for you to see how the BABIES were made.

The process of making babies (I mean chocolates, ok)

Free tasting of 3 core varieties. Clockwise from top left : Dark, white and milk pastelles

This looks like...golds in toilet

A wide range of mouth-watering chocolates!!! So chocolicious!

There are more

Begging for more?

There you go. This is just part of it. But the truth is, the whole cabinet measuring umpteen feet long and wide is completely occupied with chocolates!

How I wish to work here and indulge myself in the fascinating world of CHOCOLATES!!! Cadbury and Lindt had been my utmost loyal partners during stressful exam periods. I can finish the whole bar alone (largest bar, mind you). Nah, forget about the calories! But I seldom eat chocolates nowadays since I don't have anymore exams (YAY!). Trying to be weight-conscious and maintain my weight below 45kg. Kekeke.... If you notice me getting fatter, then it must be Cadbury and Lindt. Deng!

My best and loyal friends. Oh my god! How can I leave out Old Jamaica? He's my best friend too.

Outside heaven

Let's drive to the Swan Valley and Sandalford winery (Caversham vineyard) nearby. There's free wine tasting too. You can try and buy some if you like it. Too bad I'm not into wine. Guess I'll just snap some photos. You guys don't be shy and go ahead yea.

Swan Valley and Sandalford Wineyard (Caversham Vineyard)

Let's take a look at Curtin University (Soon's uni) before we head out to Fremantle. I bet you're hungry, right? I can hear those grrr-ing sounds from your stomach.

Curtin University (School of Businness)

Here we are at Fremantle

From left : Chilli mussels, fish & chips and fried squid (Soon's heaven) and prawn spaghetti at Cicerello's Landing


He looked exhausted carrying the heavy catches so we decided to lend him a hand

Alright, let's walk to the Maritime Museum. But don't expect too much. There's nothing much to see there. Only a ship wreck and some antiques. Oh, and a set of skeleton.

Outside Maritime Museum

The trip to Perth is incomplete without going to Kings Park. Let's hurry to cross that glass bridge before it closes at 5pm.

On the glass bridge

View of Perth City from the glass bridge

Remember we missed out on the chance to FAT FA DIN at Araluen? Now we got the chance! A variety of flowers of different colours and sizes can be found here. So grab your chance yea!

They do look like faces, don't they?

Some of my FAT FA DIN moments

Some of the breathtaking sceneries at Kings Park

Roll, Soony, Roll!

Soon and I went for steamboat buffet with Michelle, Ah Jia a.k.a. Ah Kei (the chicken) and her sis, Clover at Dragon Seafood Chinese Restaurant at Chinatown. Really haven't met them (high school friends) for a long time. 3 years, if my mind is still working right. The buffet was AUD31 (student price) and the scallops were very huge and yummy!

Alright. I really should be in bed now. It's really not good to stay up late. So, I'm signing off for now. See you soon. =)

Perth Getaway Season 4

Had a good sleep last night? Well, you better did because I'll be taking you to city today and we have to do some walking. The weather today is fine. Not too cold. Just nice. So you can leave behind your thick jackets if you want to. Oh, the bus will be here soon. Come on, let's walk out to get the bus. Don't fret. The bus stop is just 3 minutes away. Get your small change ready yea. AUD3.60 for an adult to the city (that will be RM 10.80). Keep your ticket in case you still want to travel with public transport like buses and ships. It's FOC within the first 2 hours. Now, are you cracking your mind trying to think and recall where to get this kind of service in Malaysia? Nah, don't be stupid. You cant find this kind of service anywhere in Malaysia.

See the pole he's leaning? That's the bus stand

Cam whoring while waiting for the bus. The grass were so bally!

Inside the bus, on the way to city

The bus service here is very punctual. Unlike Malaysia, whereby if you miss the bus, then you will have to wait for another bloody 45 minutes or even more than an hour. Oops, I'm comparing again. No offence yea. I'm just expressing my thoughts. Honest critics lead to improvements, right? But there's something which you can only find in Malaysia but not elsewhere. Guess what it is. Oh come on, just a wild guess! No idea? Really? Aiks...it's uncivilized barbarians! You cant find it anywhere else!

Have you guys ever notice those barbarians rushing to board the buses or trains or LRTs in Malaysia? They were dashing and pushing with each other as if rushing for their reincarnation. Terrible, I tell you. If you never experienced it before, try taking a public transport during the peak hours. You will know what I mean by then. I think I'm slowly 'trained' to become one of them. Shit! Australians are much more courteous and civilized than Malaysians. They do not rush to get onto public transports. Shame on you, Malaysians! (as if I'm not one :p) Alright, the journey will take around 40 minutes. So, enjoy the scenery.

Here we are, in the City of Perth

Got that English feeling? Wrong! We're not in London, my dear. We're still in Perth. This street is called London Court.

Are you hungry already? Hold on. We'll have Korean delights later on, ok? Just a few more streets to go. Meanwhile, enjoy the city view and compare the cleanliness with that of KL. I cant find a single rubbish on the street here. But in KL, goodness gracious! Rubbish of various sizes, colours and smells can be seen everywhere no matter which angle you turn your eyes to. Sorry for complaining again but this is the fact! Such an eye sore. Again, shame on you, Malaysians!

Hay street & Murray street

Ok! Ok! Stop nagging. We're about to reach Arirang soon. Before that, check out this hawker. He sells good hot dogs, I suppose. AUD2 for one. It's not expensive if you don't convert to RM.

Mmm~~~ Mmm~~~Smells good

Here we are, at Arirang, famous Korean restaurant which serves tasty Korean cuisine. The workers are all Koreans as well, with small eyes...hahaha!

Arirang

Clockwise from top left : Bibimbap, Hotpot with rice, Chilli beef with rice & Chilli chicken with rice

Charged up now? Good. Let's snap a couple of this cathedral-resembling building.

Come, follow me. Let's go to Bell Tower.

Bell Tower & Wheel of Perth

I like this pit of sand because the flowers can be seen sprouting on it

Harbour near Bell Tower

Some random shots at Bell Tower

Let's buy some bubble milk tea (Thanks, Soon. I'm addicted to bubble milk tea again after stop drinking for more than 6 months). I'm thirsty. For anyone of you who wish to buy souvenirs, you can do so here. But you have to walk around and do some survey before buying due to the price differences. Well, if you're lazy to walk and survey, you can straight away buy, of course! Just don't start hitting your chest (am dap) if you find a cheaper one.

My results

Are you done buying? We've been spending money for the past 2 hours. If you're done, then we'll go to Harbour Town for some outlet shopping. By the way, there's this shuttle service which provides free ride around the city, which they call as red, blue and yellow cats. Yes, you read me right. It's FREE! Previously, our RapidKL also offered bus rides for RM2 per day. Similar but not exactly the same as we still have to pay for the RM2. But now even worse. It's been abolished and changed to RM2 per ride. Damn!

Ok, coming back to our free ride here. I'm not sure which cat to take. Hold on a second. Let's ask the boss of the souvenir shop. He said take the red cat from here and get off at the next stop. Then take the BULU cat (it's actually BLUE cat but I don't know why on earth he pronounced as BULU instead...ROFL) and get off after 2 stops. Then take the yellow cat and you will reach Harbour Town. Hahaha! So now we'll take the red, BULU and yellow cat, ok? Let's go!

Harbour Town. That's mom with our souvenirs

There are a lot of branded outlets here like NIKE, ADIDAS, FILA, ESPRIT, JAY JAYS and PORTMANS, just to name a few. Wow...the jeans are so cheap. So are the shirts! I go try first ... hehehe. And the result, ......

A pair of Dotti jeans for AUD10 and Jay Jays shirt for AUD7.50. Freaking cheap!

It's 5pm now. The shops are closing down. Pay for your last stuff and we'll go to buy some roasted pork, duck, chicken and BBQ pork at Good Fortune for dinner tonight. Let's walk over the street to Soon's eldest sis' office. She'll be driving us home.

Near her office

Alright. I'm tired of tour guiding for the whole day. Guess I'll call it a day. See you in my next stop! Cheers!~~~
