Williamstown

City view from the town of Williamstown.


Jetties everywhere. From St. Kilda, Docklands, Frankston, Mentone and to here, just name it.


Clear blue skies but not for long, I'm soaking wet by the time I arrived home. Yeah, the weather forecast did said that it going to rain but I didn't listen to it.


Protecting the town in the good old days.


Far, far away from home...


Neatly parked.


Leaving Port Phillips Bay. The other boats seems dwarf compared to it.


True to it theme.


Very tall structure. Even looking at it make me dizzy.


Fishing??? Definitely not my cup of tea...


West Gate Bridge, really dangerous to ride bike across it. I learned it the hard way. Strong winds + fast vehicles + lots of massive trucks + view to die for = I can't balanced my bike properly. That will be my first and last time I'm using it with my bike. Really scary at that time. Luckily there is no sudden crosswind.


Watching ships pass by. Something new for me. BTW, that ship really looks old.


Now I know what is the function of that small boat, the small boat will assist the huge ship to navigate the narrow river or canal by bumping into it thus will help to control the movement of the huge ship.


Another one passing by.


I'm really astound with the shear size of it.


Barely made it. That ship is really huge. Just a few meters gap separating the ship and the bridge.


By now, it is starting to rain and there is no shelter in sight. Well, I'm prepared for it. That is a sign for me to return home.


Me... My life...&...

P/s Preparing for the coming semester. I've already selected my topic for my master project and hopefully he will approve it. Just wait & see.

Here's Looking at You

During my visit at Melbourne Zoo previously, I really got hooked up with these particular animal, the meerkat. It is a small mammal and a part member of the mongoose family. These meerkats are so darn adorable. They're cute, tame and playful. If only I could have them as my pet.

So cute.


What??? Don't look at me with those eyes...
(Take me home... Take me home... Take me home...)


I think that the size of it is just a slight bigger than the size of the palm of my hand.

Meerkats, meerkats, meerkats... They're everywhere.


Ready to leap.


Aren't they adorable.


To Kakja... Kalau nak kidnap bebear tu susah skit sebab besar sangat tapi kalau Adik nak meerkat boleh la diusahakan. Kecik ajer dan boleh sembunyi dalam poket.

P/s I used to have cats when I was young. Now, I really want a cat as a pet but with my hectic schedule, I'm afraid that I can't always be there for her. Hrmm, maybe some other time.

A Day at the Zoo

Melbourne Zoo... I always wanted to go there since the day I arrived but I do not know why I keep on postponing the trip until last Monday. Finally I'm there. Sometimes it is really convenient to use the public transport (need to carry the helmet if I went there by bike) but the downside is the cost (compared with using my bike). But hey, nothing is perfect right??? Something got to give.

Care to join???


To the kids besides me, this is not Aslan.


I think she's hungry.


I don't think she's asleep.


This bear is huge. Really huge.


Can't remember this bird's name.


Ugly duckling...


A Mandarin Duck, beautiful isn't it?


Up close and personal with an Emu.


I'm sleepy...


A Tree Kangaroo. Also sleeping. Yeah, it's winter, it's cold and I will also sleep if I got the chance.


Couldn't be bothered.


Got their attention.


Hanging by a moment.


A Lemur.


Nice hair.


Whatcalookingat .


In deep thought.


Thank you.

P/s Me??? Today??? Wondering around...

A gift from???

Got this parcel the other day... From someone in the "Land Below the Wind"


An eagle paperweight I guess ... Really nice. Thanks a lot...


There is even a secret compartment in it (Haha, not a secret anymore)...


I think most of you can guess from whom this parcel came from...

P/s The sender wants to remain anonymous. Thanks again to that someone. Really appreciate it and sorry for keeping you waiting.

My english class

Remember the British comedy television series, Mind Your Language? About Mr. Brown and his motley crew of foreigners studying English in his class??? I reckon that most of us will remember that series. So now, here I am in one of the English classes that are being offered by the Stonnington Council and the class really resemble the one in the series. Why??? Multicultural peoples. Among my classmates, there is Lena (The Russian beauty), Simmi (The granny from Iran), Lewis from Spain (The only male beside me), Reko (Another granny from Japan), Lily (Tall girl from Germany), Hein (From Sweden if I'm not mistaken), Carla (From Brazil), two girls from China and the list goes on. When the class comprise of peoples all around the world, there tend to be something funny when we tried to learn others people culture.

Among the best British comedies around.

It's been a year already...

27 of July 2008. Me in Melbourne. One heck of a journey to here. KLIA - Jakarta - Bali (Stranded for a night) - Melbourne

P/s Why this long route??? This is the only route available for me to reach Melbourne in time for my registration... Bali, really a beautiful place but too bad I didn't got the chances to explore the island. A must visit place in my wish list.
