I've just arrived Melbourne, i thought it was damn cold at first, butthen it seems more like Cameron Highlands here, abit colder i guess. The first picture i took was in Melbourne's airport toilet, i took this picture of a yellow box where you can dispose used stringes, cool...
the airflight was extremely pleasant, sheshh, 6 hours flight, my head was aching, damn.
while i was travelling back home, i saw this toll plaza damn cekap, it's just a large bar across the road. All you need to do is just drive throught it, then it credits into your fare (thats what happen to my taxi) it's 6am in the morning and i cant sleep, sheshh...gottaa get use to the weather here first. ciao

It’s 3:30am now, I just got back from yamcha with aNGeLNeSs
aka Sarah at Lin Contro café I think. We were sitting outside, it was damn freaking cold. Oh, I saw akarvodo aka steven, it’s been 2 years since I’ve met him.
After yamcha, me, my gf, angelness and her bro,farid, went Hungry jacks, the burgers are pretty nice...hehe
oh yeah, i saw liljinx this afternoon, surprisingly man, never thought of seeing her here...hehe
I visited Melbourne uni today, pretty nice place, nothing much to describe, but the buildings designs are quite modern.
I had a pretty decent meal today, more like delicious meal, for breakfast, i had bratwurst (German hotdog) and for dinner i had Japanese food at ‘don don’. Damn nice. Rumors has it that Japanese food in Melbourne is damn nice. Heh.
I bought my first magazine here. Australia’s edition of FHM, it’s more ‘open’ than Malaysia, and even "more interesting. You’ll see more flesh and 18sx articles in this version, one of it was "why isn’t your chick isn’t giving you blowjobs
Alrite. Time to sleep ohrehdeh, ciao

There’s something new I learn today, I found out that Melbourne has plenty of conmans. You see, just now I was walking across a bridge after watching Moulan rouge at Crown’s, suddenly, there’s 2 white teenagers (claiming to be brother and sisters) claiming to be homeless after they were kicked out from the house by their mother. They were asking for $20 so they could stay at The Crown hotel for 1 night, but what I could see was, the guy looks pretty stoned and his eyes are droopy, probably smoked couple of joints. And yesterday, while I was in Chinatown, there’s this fellow asked me for 20 cents, which I refused to give, walked off furiously with a ‘fuck off’ word muttering out from his mouth.
Nothing much happen today, I woke up like 4pm. The shops here closes at 5pm, aah, might as well stay home and watch the Simpsons.

I had a long walk today, woke up bout 12 something, went to National Bank to change my old aussie notes to the new ones. After that, I went shopping! Smith St. was my first destination, there’s a lot of warehouses there, as in those branded warehouses. I bought a pair of Nike Sneakers for $120 at the Nike warehouse. My next stop was, Swanston St., bought a cap at Nike and a pair of shorts. By the time I finish shopping, it’s already 5pm, shops are closing that time, I ended up eating dinner at A1 café at Russell St. They have pretty good stuff there, I had this Char siew Siew chu yuk fan with egg chiffon, very tasty indeed. And for dessert I had ice cream from Hungry Jacks *yummy*! Lovely!
While at night, it was all TV all night longggg..yawn..gnite

An inactive day today, I was suppose to call bABybOo a.k.a. Pam, she asked me to go clubbing at Sirens today, but I guess I was lazy, sorry Pam!, hehe. I had Souvlakis Lamb for dinner at Lamb’s in Queensberry St. , it’s lamb with bbq sauce and garlic sauce wrapped in Pita Bread. The lamb’s quite salty, *eiiyuck*
I tried Sub Zero Lemon just now, pretty nice. There’s also Sub Zero Mango, hmm, interesting huh?

I woke up early today, went to Vic Mart (Market) to buy some groceries back home. It seems that the market here has some similarity with our market in Malaysia, the sellers here chants up their current prices loudly to everyone. The funny thing is, almost every shop is competing who is louder. The market here is far much cleaner than Malaysia of course. Back in KL, you’ll probably step into a puddle of $#@$# while your walking in the market.
My gf bought 2 CDs at J.B Hi-fi for $4 each, damn cheap! Gatecrasher CD for $14++ I think, while some newest dance CDs cost bout $29.90. I had Vietnamese food for dinner today at Pho Zung with my gf, and her friends, Ann Chang, Jeannette and Hon San. Very nice indeed. It seems that most of the food I ate in Melbourne are nice huh? Oh no, minus the Slovlakis I had, it tasted, eumm too salty!
I went to this adult shop (something like Mid Valley’s sex shop). Compared to KL, the one I went to today was AMAZING!!! They have plenty of dildos, fake pussies and asses, gay men videos and mags.. ewwwwww fake tits,etcetc.. they even have a cinema with different prices for different kinda of ppl.. e.g. senior citizens pay $6.90, while students pay $12.10, but most of the ppl I saw were old men (HORNY old men..) h0h0
Nighttime in Melbourne is pretty boring if you don’t club/rave here, I spend the whole night watching TV and VCD..sheshh

Tadaaa...I went shopping again today. This time I went to Chappel street and bought a big hooded jacket. Then I took a tram to the beach, St Kilda Beach, it was very very very cold! It’s like the wind from South Pole blowing towards here..argh. The water was quite clean surprisingly, comparing to our lovely Port Dickson. I had fish and chips for dinner. Very nice (yeah, again), but the portion was too big, uh, we had some leftovers, and fed them to seagulls. After being bored to death at home, we went for ice-cream at New Zealand Natural on Lygon *yums*!! Still feeling very wai sek we then had Lamb Souvlaki @ Lambs (AGAIN). Better this time.. not so salty .. g’nite all!
24 July 2001 11:18:05 PM
Another cold and usual day, i tried this spicy minced meat at this Shanghai noodle restaurant, very very big bowl, it's about $5 a bowl..i think i my stomach almost burst when i finish the whole thing.
and oh yeah, happy bday voonhiM!!!
and happy belated bday choi hsia
tomolo i'll be off to see penguins at some island, it's gonna be veryvery cold there.i heard its about 5 degrees.

26 July 2001
woke up literally @ dawn 8 am
bathed, ate leftover Shanghai noodles and 2 num loong pau
met friends Ann and Chris on the way out
Boarded the Gray Line bus to Menzies Creek where we took a couple of pics with the Puffing Billy. I felt like a sakai.
Bussed on to Warrook Cattle Farm. Had a $22 homestead lunch. *sob*
Took couple of pictures of friendly but greedy horses n peacocks.
Walked around, saw our 1st sheep, it greeted us with a *mehhh* so cute!!
Went into the fields where the sheep’s were. Guy explained about his doggie Jack and its duties. Jack rounded up the sheep.. even bit one of ‘em.
Went for a hay ride *ka bump* to see sheep shearing (it stinks there *euw*), then to milk cows. Tasted the milk straight out fresh. I tasted horrible, it’s very warm, somehow I feel disgusted by it, maybe it’s because I don’t really like milk, however my gf liked it
Hay rided again to play with the kangaroos. Saw one lonely wombat on the way, tho the sign read meet the wombat family. The Kangaroo’s were cool. It ate right outta ur hand, they were very friendly. Living harmoniously with the kangaroos are some geese and ducks, the geese are freaking fierce while the ducks are, hehe, nice to bully, we chased ducks into the water..hehehehe
Left farm, went to see koalas on Phillip Island. All I can say is, koalas are lazy all they do is eat, sleep, and shit. You’ll see the shit on the ground everywhere. Cute, nevertheless. Huge mosquitoes. *ouch*
Saw some great scenery near the Seal rocks.. WOW. Bass Strait separates the mainland and Tasmania. Saw the Nobbies a rugged rocky blunt mountain-looking thing. Very very beautiful.
Went to see the penguin parade. Damnnnnnnn coldddddddddd wore 4 layers of clothing.. brrrr kinda disappointing coz so few penguins showed up seems that they have not much reason to come up to shore in winter. We did see a few near their burrows, bout 4 5 of them. The thing that I notice is that they’re pretty stoned, I’ve seen couple of them standing dt the same place for a long time.
Time to go home, we had a sucky dinner in some lousy Italian restaurant. Souvenir shop bought fluffy penguins for my gf and meself.. ?
On the way back to melb, we saw BEAUTIFUL stars like in a belt.. damn bright.. stretched vertically, not just flat out in the sky. Something like it rises from the horizon and spreads towards the sky, beautiful, simply beautiful!.
It took us 1 ½ hrs to reach home sweet home zzZzZzZZZzzzz
27 July 2001

I met a lot of my friends today. Firstly, this afternoon, I went yamcha with sAsa, cHeeKyGaL and another friend at vis café, she has completely changed from hairstyle to dressing. It seems that her other 2 friends were from kl also, used to rave a lot. While at night, I met up with my old alevels course mates. They’ve just arrived from KL. I met up with akarvodo, akarhong, Irene, Johan and Roaland at Crowns. Johan damn chubby ohrehdeh, hehe. Akarvodo drives an altezza, fuh, damn power man. After sitting there for couple of minutes, we ended up in Lin’contro at Swanston. Unexpectedly, Ker Wynn was there too. He was there for like 3 week ohrehdeh. He was with his friends that time so he didn’t join us for a drink 
. Few moments later, Jen Kin, Joyce and Yean Peng arrived. Had a few words with them, then they sat somewhere else. Me, Johan, gf, Irene, akarhong and roaland sat there for 2 hours. I went home bout 3 something, had to walk back home, no more trams oleidi. I notice there were a lot of drunkard along the road, Saturday night, everyone pei-ing everywhere.

Melbourne Uni damn alot of ppl, they even haf some sports activity going on for free. There's kickboxing, thaibo, wushu, fencing, etc etc..Butthen, free for one week only..sheshh..
Accounting concepts seems to be a very easy subject, it's like my alevel accounting, and slightly easier, i wish i could take that subject..hehe
Trinity college is just next to Melbourne Uni (the colege where my gf used to study). It's a nice place, with old block of building, wish i bought my camera along.

3 August 2001
I went clubbing at Sirens just now, kinda big place. There's 2 rooms, 1 r&b and another one techno/trance. i was there wif my gf, nick, kerwynn, shawn, yeanpeng, joyce, kim, and others, johan got kicked out cause he's in jeans, aw man , he walked straight back to Crown.
We ordered a bottle of Black Label, cost bout $120. I had bout 4 cups, all bottoms up, due to the other friends who wanted to get drunk fast, i ended up having a headache on my head now, uh.
After years of hearing all the significant of the special dance in Melbourne nightclubs, i've finally seen it! It seems that 99% of the people there (the techno/trance room) can do melbourne shuffle (thats what some people call that dance). It's really damn nice and unique, i'm quite amazed! Usually in kl you can see 2 or 3 people doing Melbourne shuffle, but there its like everyone can do it, and oh yeah, the weed here smells better, hehe.
Today is the last day for me to do all the things i usually do. For example, watching The Simpsons. I taped the Simpsons today, damn nice...1 hour special, damn, i cant watch it in Malaysia no more 
. Furthermore, today its my last day of attending uni wif my gf, but thank god, the lectures are freaking boring and i haf to wake up early for it..sheshh...but oh well, one hell of an experience.
Gotta go sleep now

I went Vic Mart this morning. I had Dutch Pancakes, it's some small pancakes covered with maple syrup and butter, mmmm, nicee...ahhh...Then i had Spanish Doughnut, it's a long crispy dough with caster sugar on it...mmm...nice..ahh. I bought a lot of souvenir for my parents and friends at Vic Mart. I bought this aromatherapy gadget and couple of essence oil for my parents, i wonder if it really works.
I went to Crowns again just now but this time I went into the casino, damn a lot of slot machines and gambling tables. I wonder how many millions does Crown make a day.
Tomorrow I’m gonna have Mcdonalds for breakfast with Nick before I leave, my flight is at 2:15PM, I think I’ll reach KLIA at 8:15PM.
This should be the last night here for my Melbourne trip, I’m gonna miss this place man.
