landed at about 3 plus in the afternoon at Sydney International Airport. Had a rather rurbulent flight on Lauda Air. I dont know it was purely fatigue and exhuastion that made me a little light headed, or the flight itself. All i know was i was so glad we landed. Got onto a train and went to Central in the heart of the city!
Beatrice was the first person i met in Sydney! so happy to see her. We went to Keeran's place but he was at work. Put my bags down n all, then went to meet the rest of Beat's friends. Went to Cole's and bought this thing called a pavlova for one of their friends' birthday. it was kinda cool.
Kor came at about 8-ish pm. we all went for dinner at this place called Milliore which was Korean. ahaha my first meal in the land down under was Korean. :) Allison, Zee wan & Sher lyn came along. we chilled in Beat's hostel, where i stole 40 winks. i was so so tired.
Met Keeran and Ching back at their apartments finally. He was showing us a few places in Sydney on the map, including a nice jogging path.:)
Then they decided to head to the Rocks...at midnight! ahahha but The Rocks was beautiful. really really beautiful. took my breath away.
Pancakes on The Rocks was delicious! really really good. we walked back to Keeran's apartment much much later. Kor decided to go jogging in the morning. That time it was 4 am. so we set the alarm at 8.

omg...waking at 8 was such a chore. sitting on the toilet was an even bigger chore. But the worst was feeling the freezing cold win slapping my face when the glass doors of Miramar apartment slided open and allowed it in! My entire skeleton was chattering. It was madness. I thought i was mad!
was supposed to run up to Mrs Macquarie's Chair but we somehow took a wrong turn and ended up running along a lot of roads. I hate traffic lights. they make me stop and feel the cold! but it was a good 1 hour run. really it was. Everything was just so beauiful esp at the rocks. :) met mel and her mum on some traffic light!! haha she went "OMG what are you doing jogging on your first morning?!?!" hahah....
Mel didnt feel well so she asked my bro and i to go on our own to The Rocks Market. This i liked. There were so much to see there. I bought a bag of chilli chocolates for my dad. ahhaha i hope he would like them.
we hopped onto a ferry to Taronga Zoo. It's actually very big and all, but certain things quite disappointing lar..for example, i couldnt see my platypus. sigh...ahhaha but okla...:)
we got back at about 5-ish 6. quickly hurried back and got ready for big dinner. Beat told us we were having pork ribs at this place called Hurricanes on Bondi. whoa...im not much of a red meat person. i can eat but i dont exactly indulge in it. But ribs n steak at the Hurricanes? anytime man, anytime. :)
we decided to retire as early as possible...and so we slept till the alarm rang again the next morning...
okla..that should be good for now. im gonna go see what mel is doing. i havent uploaded any pics. will add them in when i do. see ya!
