melbourne 2010

Melbourne in a nutshell? ARTSY.

A lot of my friends have been telling me that i MUST go to Melbourne because it’s SO ME! And from what i’ve heard and experienced… YES, i think i fell in love with the city. From the graffiti to coffee and artistic building architecture and people… i just feel at ease being there. And strangely, i can feel that i can express myself more in a city so foreign yet not a stranger to me.

Sydney or Melbourne? I can’t decide which one i like more. Both is different in it’s own way and also i like them both because of different things as well.

Anyways. Pics in random. I lost track of the name of the places halfway.

Sydney 2010

WOAH. blog neglected! :P

haha. Anyhoo, As some of you might already know, i just got back from the land down under not too long ago.
Life’s been busy and exciting at the same time for me. Ive let go certain things in my life and im moving on. :)

Also, if you dont already know… i’ve chopped off my long locks and have a sorta punky hairstyle now. :p pictures later or you can always stalk my facebook or find me for drinks. of course i would prefer if you give me a call and we can go food hunting/shopping/doing nothing :)

Any crazy dude out there wanna go on a crazy backpacking trip with me? hahaa :P The only condition is for you to be able to handle a camera (to take pictures of me conquering the world wtf) :P

Definitely going back to Aussie soon, just to finish off my travel to -do lists … which is really crazy and i will only share it with you if you are going traveling with me. haha wtf :P

nuff talking. pics now. caution. bandwidth overload.

Semi Permanent 2010
Semi Permanent was insightful. There were a few speakers that intrigues me but some were actually just plain weird(?). The conference in Sydney this year seems to focus more on print and online. I actually spent some $$ buying frankie as they seems to be a big hype for the fashion industry. little did i know, i actually have collected a lot of their artworks unknowingly in my folder of inspiration. :) guess what, i also receive a surprise souvenir from whirwind for participating in their badge design competition. *teehee*

Darling Harbour
is BEAUTIFUL!!! The skies there amazes me. beyond words. :) Took plenty of pics but i guess i’ll just pick a handful to show.

Chinatown
feels like home! All the asians walking around and so on. Food’s decent here and basically, i just felt as if i can live here. The japanese food in Sydney is awesome! Better than what i expected and totally worth every penny!

The streets of sydney
What i like most from Sydney is how each section of the city can look different in it’s own interesting way. I love the ARCHITECTURE of their buildings as somehow, it seems to preserved the old school feeling and still look very well maintained and sort. Some restaurants are just so pretty!

Train Station
The train station reminds me of Hong Kong! somehow even with the trains being old and dirty, it’s interesting to try other country’s public transport. :)

Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Opera House
WOAH. i took millions of photos here but i guess i’ll just upload a few. ;) The view is spectacular and the chilly winds while walking along the harbour… breathtaking! too bad we were too late, else we could have had dinner at the opera house!

Bondi Junction & Bondi Beach
PARADISE! my only regret from my whole trip is not getting to surf at the beach! :( We were rushing for another flight and there goes. :( I swear to go back next summer , just to surf at bondi for at least 3 DAYS IN A ROW wtf. :(:(:(
anyhoo, bondi is such a paradise. love it so much! Surprisingly i took the least pics here and i guess im uploading the most pics from bondi. :D

Sydney was definitely a pleasant journey. too bad we don’t really have much time there. And for that, i will be back! :)

PARAMORE IN SG 7th March 2010!!!

uploaded my vids but they were too shaky(due to excessive jumpin n headbangin) and quality’s horrible for viewing. Found this other channel with better quality vids.
Overall the concert was fkin awesome. Glad i made it there. TQ to those who made it happen.
Another to-do list striked!

My fav song they performed was still misery business. Somehow i can never get bored of tht song. Hayley was pretty pumped up whole night and the crowd was awesome. Everyone knows every single word to their song.

Anyway, if you have not heard of paramore… shame on you. :/

Hopefully they will make their way to Malaysia one day. I’m sure Malaysian crowd wont dissapoint them as well! :P
