I'm back from Australia!! Anyone missed me while I'm gone? Ok, I dun wanna know the truth.
Anyway, such a huge disappointment coz there's no summer sale there at all. The stuff there are so tempting but they're all so expensive. You were right when you said 300 bucks aren't enough for me roomie. So sorry, didn't get the bikinis nor slippers that you all asked for coz they're all to ex. Didn't go to the Factory Outlet this time round so I couldn't get any cheap bargains at all.
Nevertheless, I enjoyed myself, basking in the great Aussie sun and getting myself burnt. The sunshine there's like megawatt, everytime I stepped outdoors, I could feel the heat on my skin. Didn't dare to step out w/o my sun-screen. No sun-tan lotion this time round, I would have become a roasted pig. Of course I didn't fail to make a trip down to Surfer's Paradise to catch those cute surfers in action. What a sight! haha. I still love the beach as before. Never felt so comfortable walking bare-footed before. Always thought I had seen a nicer beach but I was quite wrong. The beach at Gold Coast is still the best!
I took lotsa pics but mostly of my sister. haha. But I managed to take some beautiful sights. Shall upload them soon. Oh, one thing that I ought to mention is the
schoolies that shocked me. Anyone heard of them before? I didn't till I was at Gold Coast. They're the BIG group (oh yah, I mean really BIG, like hundreds of them) of students that just finished their high school and awaiting to enter college or whatever. And then they'll terrorise the streets at night. I thought the tour guide was just exaggerating when he said they're nasty group of youngsters. But the night I reached there and the tour guide was bringing us around at Surfer's Paradise, I heard them 1st then I saw them.... Heard them coz even when they were like a few blocks away, they were already making a huge din, creating loud noises, cheering and everything. Then when I saw them, I was like "wow... WAIT. you mean they're all walking together like this???" There's at least a hundred of them. I'm not joking... Like rows and rows and rows of youngsters walking along the street across from me. We just stared at them and I was seriously threatened. Anyway, all the shops in the mall close earlier coz the schoolies are around. But it doesn't affect me much coz all the shops I go to aren't in the mall. My cousin who's studying in Brisbane enlightened me by telling me that these schoolies will drink till they're drank, take drugs and lots of girls get raped during this period. CRAZY...
I wanna travel around the world to take beautiful photos.
