Okay, I admit I was lazy, very lazy...
I was supposed to post up the things about my australia trip the weekend I came back home, but yups, was kinda lazy to blog, and after that, too busy to blog.
So yups, here it is, those that I can still remember!
Day 1 (plane to Gold Coast)It was a rushy morning that day when my whole family did last minute packing (of course, my mum was smart to ask us to pack the night before despite my dad saying that there is still a lot of time) and we left for Changi Airport.
So it was there that I started sneezing real bad, and yups, we went for lunch and viola, went onto the plane (fly emirates) after waiting, waiting and waiting.
So I watched some movies on the plane (Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince- ewww, GI Joe - WoW! and Dragon ball - So so...)
And ate a lot (but the food is too salty and somehow not nice to eat)...
And I also saw someone that looked like my friend over there (and I saw her when I was returning to singapore too)
Okay... and after which, I reached Brisbane airport and my whole family went to ZZZ... in the seats provided...
Day 2Woke up (feeling very tired and ache-y) and my whole family went to take the airtrain (we forgot to press the button to open the door XD) to GoldCoast (no choice, cos backpacking trip, no coach)
Yups, and the air there was nice, warm but windy (much worse in GoldCoast - warmer + windier)
The trip was around two hours, and once we got off, we went to purchase our Go-card (EZ-link card) and went on a bus journey (approx. 1 hour) to our resort, where we got off without knowing it's our stop (lucky, isn't it?)
But anyways, it was in the bus that I realised how nice Australians are. They can offer to help each other even though they dunno them and will also talk to strangers as if they are their good friends.
So we reached our resort and slept...
And the moment we woke up, it was very late and time for lunch (or brunch because we didn't eat breakfast)
So after that we went out of the resort to recce the place for the meeting place for the next day and then a shopping place (just see see only), but it was like 5.30pm there and everything has closed le. (So freaking early right? totally not used to it at first)
So we went to eat at pizza hut for dinner (no forks and spoons, so ate pasta with hands!)
So it was like everyone was staring at my weird family and I eating with our hands there.
And later on, we went to the night market, and that was where we saw an advertisement to discourage gambling "Don't be a Galah!" and we started teasing our sister, calling her a Galah.
So at the night market, there were like lots of stuff that that they sell, just like our pasar malam, but one thing that went well for me was the moon-sighting part. There was a booth with many telescopes to see the moon, and we paid a family fee of 2 children, 2 adults, but in the end, all 6 of us went to watch. Hehes. XD
It looked like some kinda cell liddat (reminded me of biolody lessons looking at my dead cheek cells)
So yups, we also went to the beach to walk. The waves there were nice and large, the full moon was beautiful, and the soft and cool sand was georgeous! Wished I could bring some of the cool, soft sand back. XD
And at the market, there were like public toilets that were very interesting. The toilets have switches for you to press (to lock the door and to open the door), and once you close and lock the door, there will be a voice to tell you that you have 10 mins left, then start playing music. And if 10 mins over, the door will unlock. Cool isn't it?
So after that we were like making our way back and there were a group of girls that tried to sneak up on my brother and I to scare us, but we quickly picked up our pace and went off. So their plan kinda failed. Crazy teenagers!
After that weird incident, we went back and slept, to prepare for our 4WD trip the next day, waking up at 4.30am australia time (2.30am singapore time)
Yups, and this will be what happened for the first two days. I'll type in the next few days if I'm free or not-lazy. hahaz! XD

A levels is finally over! (Though it ended for me on Monday)
But this time, it does not really feel that great about an exam ending.
Not that I don't want it to end, but it's the fact that I won't be able to see many of my friends that is saddening...
It's like for every examination, there will be a post-exam celebration, and you can still see your friends after that in school.
But what the end of A levels marked was the fact that I'll not be wearing my school uniform again (which means I won't really be able to see my friends for a long time, especially those who are from overseas)
I don't know why, but this feeling sucks. But I realised that it should be time to move on. Hahaz.
So yups, though I'll miss a lot of stuff due to my overseas trip this time, I do hope that you guys have fun (not that you all will read my post), but yeah, I'll miss all of you. Hahaz.
Yups, and the next time you guys see me, I'll be different, much better than now! =)
Woohoo! Goldcoast here I come!!!! =D
