In brisbane..

Its my 3rd day hereee..and its awsome! Havnt had the time to blog since the first day i reached here..Just came back from Harbourtown..its a hub with a lot of warehouses!! Hiakz..and i spent $30 oni..in which i bought 2 caps, a pouch and a top!! hehe..so cheappp...really happy with my purchases boy...Will be going to sugin's place later..then clubbing i think...Yeah..let mi try to recall what i did on the first day before i forget...will post some pics later when cheryl sends them to me when i get back..
First day - Thanks to sugin and greg for fetching mi from the airport..then went to this shopping centre called Indoroophilly for lunch..then headed to cheryl's place in the city...walked to the Southbank to catch a movie with cheryl and her friends..watched The pacifier..which was really funny and lighthearted..and i enjoyed it!!
2nd day - Was supposed to have a picnic at the botanic gardens but there was a slight drizzle before we left home..so we ended up eating at home haha..fortunately, the skies cleared and we set off to the botanic garden anyhow and toured around QUT..the building is so much newer than my uni..and cos its v near the botanic garden, it gave a very serene and relaxed feeling to it..The botanic garden is along the Brisbane River...Then we headed to Gold coast, surfers paradise!! Heheh..thanks to luke, who drove us there and back..and at the end of the trip, he was complaining of a stiff knee..hehe..thanks so much dude...Yeah..Gold coast was gd!! It felt like i was in California..opp the beautiful beach, was a hub of shops and al fresco dining...and as we walked further up, there was a jap corner where there were so many jap restuarants!! heeh will post a pic of it..and i really felt i was in japan for awhile! hahaha...then dinner was at Sunny bank...Sunny bank was the equivalent of a town center for asians..there were supermarkets, shops and restuarants owned by koreans, taiwanese, japanese..and we felt we were at china/taiwan for a bit hahahaha...dinner was gd cos i was ravenous with hunger!! I had grilled chicken chop rice from this taiwanese shop...then as it was a friday, there was sth like a night market at southbank, the same area where i watched the movie on the first day...got some earrings and i must say it was a really nice place...think cool air, relaxed..joyful singing by buskers...warm lighting...lake...yeah...it was really nice..
Then we headed down to this club called Embassy...cheryl's frens were all gathered at her place and waiting for 12 am...cos apparently Amy (cheryl's fren) said that the clubs will be opened after 12am..cos of Easter...ya..at first we thought the clubs were gonna be closed cos the entire city was like a dead town when we went down earlier to the 7-11..Oh yah, i must add, cheryl lives in the city..which is so convenient and accessible...her apartment is really nice too...double storeyed with 2 bed rooms, a living rm, a balcony, kitchen, 2 bathrooms...cool...The club was ok lah..the music wasnt fantastic but i enjoyed myself anyhow...
Yeah..Ok lah..i gotta go down to meet sugin and greg...will blog later with pics..hopefully!
