Hi everyone...
I realise that it's been ages since i last posted.. and yes, despite snide comments from ppl that blogger should delete me as user ( u know who u are.=) ), I have finally decided to share bits and pieces of my life with you all through my Melbourne holiday pics!
Anyhows, Melbourne was a great experience.. And i think i had a phpoto epiphany of sorts.. Ppl always say how they remember things best not neccessarily because they took pictures of it, but because they were there. The Human Eye and Mind, I think, score a great advantage over lens and film (or CCD in this case) in the recording of experiences.
Before Melbourne, I would have to say that I was of the school of thought that I wanted to take pictures of EVERYTHING in Melbourne so as to remember it better. No subject would be spared from my shutter... But I realised something.. That the pictures I have taken no doubt will help me to remember the trip, but I think in the end, the sounds, smells, textures, tastes will all contribute greatly to the memory.. Of course, I had no lack of companionship while I was over there.. Met up with RY, Esther and Yangling (my SB4 classmates), Jon & Wenjie ( the "lost sheep" of my church school group haha) and various other ppl.
I, of course, cannot forget my Godsisters who showed me a welcome which i will be eternally grateful for! Despite their claiming that the sofa (which doubled up as my bed) wasnt too comfortable or that they came into the house late after a long night studying at the library... Thanks Chehs, if you're reading this! Youve definitely made my trip much more memorable. That, plus Mecca Bar, Fish house & the fish & chips place... haha
Last, but not least, I have to thank my bestest childhood friend in the whole world ( aka my only friend in the whole world, no offence to my other friends.. inside joke..=P ) : CALI! Heh... she was basically the one worrying about where we would go on this day and that day and what time they opened (and closed), how much the admissions were, etc etc etc.. Though at times, i think she was actually enjoying the responsibility of minding the details.. what to to? OCPD person... But nonetheless, Thanks a 1,000,000 for everything babe... If not for you, i would probably have spent a lot more going to less places having much less fun.. Does that make sense?
Yep that's Cali in the picture... For the gender confused, the blur blocks and the just plain retarded people, She's the one on the right.. *mumble mumble*
Ok ok... enough for the thank yous... i think I'll post the pictures in the next post.. haha this one quite long already..=)
