Suffering...

Another boring day pass. THANK GOD! I was actually listening to Suffering by Jess Lee Jia Wei. She's a Malaysian and she won FIRST PLACE in a Taiwan singing competition. Her voice.... is sooooooo POWERFUL! Listen to it. Its actually in chinese. Honest speaking, i'm actually obsess with this song. You know me always obsess with weird songs. This song is about a girl ( not Jess ) she and a guy.... went over the limit. You know what I mean. So she's  currently pregnant i think...  So she's very frustrated and suffering. She's been eating expired food and wine. 

Enough of "suffering". I've been wanting ipad for a very long time. No, my parents didn't get me an ipad. But if they did, I will be very happy and will be high for my whole life! Kk enough. Today was sooo boring, even me and Rachael started talking fairytales story about both of us. And now we are gossiping about Zhiying! It's a prank. WE WERE BORED! You might be wondering why am I so close to Rachael suddenly. No we're not, we dun talk much in school. But we are close on facebook.

Kay i got to go. Needa prepare for another boring day.

Boring day number 3 here i come...

Last Day of School :(

Today was the last day of school. :( It was also known as " Party Day " After lunch time, at 1 o'clock sharp. Party Day will officially begin!!! Our class ordered Dominos Pizza ( as usual ) me, fifi, kheng yue bought 2 cakes and brought them to school. And its Secret Recipe! Chocolate Banana and Chocolate Indulgence!!!~ ^^ thinking of the cakes makes me hungry now! We were actually planning on spraying our beloved Teacher Chung Han with 2 bottles of whip cream. Because of some "technical difficulties" We cancel the Prank. :( One of the cakes was for Teacher Chung Han's birthday. On the other hand, the Chocolate Indulgence was for Teacher Chung Han and Cher How Kian. 




Other than that we watched The Devil Wears Prada. Staring Anne Hathaway. Me and Kheng Yue pretended we were in a cinema eating popcorn. But we were actually in a classroom eating Prawn Crackers 8) The movie was really nice. Except for the part where the other side of our class make noise. Its so annoying! 

Soon it was 4.00pm. We were shocked by how time flies! Lionel and the other boys were to perform their very own Sexy And I Know It dance at 4.30pm! Me and Fifi went to invite the teachers to come and watch. Teacher May Peng, How Kian, Chung Han, Bernie and Sethu. Oh,  here's the fun part. Instead of Lionel and the boys, Teacher Chung Han and Teacher How Kian was forced by US to dance with them XD 

I still remember the first day of school. Shy, quiet... And now, I find myself hugging almost every teacher. I will never forget the good moments we had together. I'll miss you my dear teachers and friend. May we meet again.~

Movie+ Disappointment

2 more days till school ends... Today is Tuesday. It actually started off pretty good! We watched a movie called The Sixth Sense. It's actually a horror movie, you can tell by its name :) Its actually about the boy name Cole. He could see ghosts and he was requested to help the ghosts to do something. Everyone literally screamed when the ghosts came out. :S

Later on during social skills. We were to discuss about our class throughout the year... To me, we were not united. We were, at first... Most of the teachers were really disappointed in us. :/ how sad.............

Western Australia Day 4

Beautiful pure white san dunes.

Today was the highlight of the whole trip (to me). First we travelled to Lancelin, the sand dune town. The place which is famous for "sand boarding! " One look all sand " haha i just make up an idiom ;) We rented 2 sand boards from a general store in town. And off we went sand boarding!!!

It was fun but there were a LOT of flies and it was very very hot!!!!!!! My hat was the only weapon against them :/ But it was worth it when we slided down the sand! WHEE~~~

We really enjoyed it there. It was very fast when I slided down. Well my mom slided too. She's afraid of heights so she slided on the smallest slope -.- The downside was .... the climb. After each slide, we had to climb all the way up again against the strong winds plus carrying the board. After each of us had a few rounds, we went back to the town to return the boards.

Then we cleaned ourselves up in the public toilet. We then drove to the Pinacles Desert. As shown in the picture. The rocks were formed naturally. ;) It all started when they were small shells then they broke down. And eventually the become rocks like this.

It was quite a sight. Golden dessert with mass rock formation. Unfortunately it was also full of flies. Luckily there was a path where we could drive in. We didn't stay long there cos the flies and the heat was unbearable. After a short visit to the discovery centre, we drove to Perth City.

It was a relieve once we were back to "civilisation". We quickly checked into Bailey's Hotel and returned the rented car before the office closed. It was about 5pm but the sun was still going strong and "fierce". So we decided to go to the Swan Bell tower. Well, nothing much there except for the Bell tower which has huge mechanism for bell ringing inside. We proceed to the Hay Street next. The shops were mostly closed by then. So we ended having Macdonald for dinner which cost 3 times more than Malaysia (in RM). 

Movie Day~~~

Today during Maths tutorial... Tr. How Kian let us watch a movie: Tron Legacy... ^^ Its about 2 different dimensions. A human world and the Tron World( Sci-fi world) Sam Flynn has enter the Tron world and found his dad, Kevin Flynn, which has disappeared a few years ago. While Kevin was trapped, He created Clu, his clone. Clu was built to create the perfect system with Kevin but Clu betrayed him. 


Clu: Yellow light ribbon
Sam: Blue Light ribbon

( as shown in picture ) 

                     

Isn't Sam Flynn hawt?????? ^^ When Sam entered the Tron World. He was known as a "user" among the "programs". He was forced to enter a game: Disk War. Where opponents throw Disk at each other.

The Disk is attached to the back of the programs/users. The girl beside Sam. Was an ISO. ISO is when the blue and orange light ribbon mixes. Her name is Quorra. She was the apprentice of Kevin. When Sam met Kevin after being saved by Quorra during Sam's battle against Clu in Light Cycle, they need to get Sam to the portal so he can shut Clu down. 

This, is a Light Cycle... The game is Light Cycle but i'm not sure what's the bike call. :/ See the blue light behind the bike? That's the light ribbon, when the light ribbon hits the opponent, the opponent will shattered into pieces ( die ) 

If you haven't watch the movie, watch it! -.-

Spoiler here: Kevin Flynn died :( 

Ciao~

Western Australia Day 3

This morning we had breakfast of milk and bread in the hotel. Pa then showed us the place where he bought the dinner simply b'cos it's the Last Eating House before the Antarctic", 5439kms away. Oh my, we were that close!

Cool man..........

After which we drove north to Margaret River.  Along the way, pa spotted a shell museum and he decided to take a look. It's quite a nice place to visit. The shells are neatly arranged with labels. 

Huge collections of shells from all over the world.

We were then proceed to Margaret River for wine tasting. We went to the first one as soon as we entered the winery region. It's called Watershed Premium Wines.

Magnificent wine yards with clear blue sky.

After a few rounds, mi finally purchased a bottle of white wine. Pa is just not into wine, he likes whisky only. Then we drove to the town center where we walked around the town area and purchased some souvenirs and juices.

 Our next destination was Busselton Jetty. We spotted this weird looking plant beside the road. 

Little yellow wild flower by the road side.

Busselton is a very pretty city. The jetty is the longest in the southern hemisphere, 2km long. To and fro will be 4km, we managed only half way. You can choose to take the train instead of walking but the fee is AUD16.90 which is costly.



Can you spot the end of the jetty?

It was a very bright and sunny day.

We headed to Fremantle after this. The GPS was not being very helpful here. It couldn't detect our location accurately. It was a relieve when we finally arrived at the Fremantle Village, our accommodation for the night. Fortunately it turned out to be a very interesting place to stay.

Interesting chalet with big flat screen tv.

Unfair... !

Enough of Western Australia... for a moment.... The Sri Emas school is taking all of our good teachers! >< even though their just assistant teachers! >< Our English assistant teachers, Teacher Chung Han is going there... And leaving us! Its so unfair... :( The twin teachers, Teacher Andy and Teacher Chris are going too! Their going to leave us next year! >< No offence but why do they want to take them instead oh our maths tutorial and our bio teacher??? 

Western Australia Day 2

We had a very hearty breakfast prepared by the host, Kerri. She even checked with us about food preference when we checked in the day before. We were first served with yogurt with some fruits, follow by the main dish of egg, beacon and sausage with fresh wild mushroom. There were toast and fruit juice and tea/coffee and honey.

The table was arranged with details and with a personal touch. Mmmm, yummy.....

Planning the day's itinerary.

Saying goodbye to this wonderful place and missing the dog so much.

 

 We kicked start our day with a short visit to the Greens Pool with amazing colour.

Then we went to the much acclaimed Valley of the Giants. The giants here are referring to the enormous tingle trees. While we walked on the wobbling but solidly constructed steel walkway, we were so high up it was like walking on the tree top.

The Tree Top Walk soars 40 meters into the Tingle canopy.

Enormous tingle trees view from the walk.

Incredible hollow trees.



Hello, Grandma!

After close-encounter with the ancient giant trees, we then stopped at Walpole to have some bites on the local bread which is not something we like.  We continued our journey to Augusta where we would check into Augusta Motel. Luckily we were in time for the Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse. It's situated on the south west tip of Australia continent. That's why the wind was extremely strong it made walking against it a challenge.

To the left, Southern Ocean, to the right, Indian Ocean.

Blissful landscape!

We then checked into our hotel and pa "tapau" fish and chips for dinner. At night we watched our photos before we retired in our family room.

Western Australia Trip Day 1

After months of planning and researching, we finally flew to WA on 28 Oct 2011 @ 11.50pm.

When we reached Perth Int. Airport at 5.25am, it was freezing cold but the sky was already bright. We passed thru the check point without any hassle, in fact they were so friendly. Straight away we went to collect our pre-booked car at Redspot Budget Car Rental after we had a quick breakfast.  It was an Hyundai Elantra and it's comfortable enough for 4 of us.

We also rented a GPS, AKA Tom Tom to help with the navigation.

With tom's help, pa drove towards Albany Highway easily.

Beautiful farm along the way.

 We stopped at Kojonup for some bakery and milk. It was very small but clean and neat.

 

 After about 400 kms of this:-

    We were at Albany at last. Mi and I were very excited. The weather was cold and windy.

 

We then adjourned to our first itinerary, the Torndirrup National Park where we found the Natural Bridge and the Gap. Were greeted with massive rock formation by the sea.

The Natural Bridge. Look how small the peaple appeared on the bridge.

   

The Gap which is a narrow gap which plunges 25 meters into the sea. Really impressive.

 Next we drove to Denmark where our first night accommodation located. Before we check in, we visited Pentland Alpaca Farm.

These are Alpacas. They are very calm and gentle and very fluffy to the touch. They are from South America and breed for the fibre. I really had a nice time with them.

I had the chance to cuddle the calf and feeding them. It was really fun.

Then we proceed to Sensational Heights Bed and Breakfast.

It's a very beautiful B&B with great lawns and views.

We had a family room.

5 star wash room.

The owner's handsome dog. So friendly and cute. It was fun running with him under clear blue sky and on green grass. I missed hugging him.

The town of Denmark.
