Melbourne 2012

I think I should be thankful for the experiences I go through whether good or bad. Came back from Melbourne approximately 3 weeks ago and still reeling from how awesome the trip was. It was a trip of many firsts and unexpected returns. Let's talk about firsts, because pleasant things are always nice to talk about.
 1. Going on a holiday (long) with friends

2. Going on a holiday with my primary school friends

3. Spending nights and daily life routines with my friends of 15 years

4. Snowboarding!   

5. Experiencing winter
6. Drinking ginger tea in winter
7. Eating ba ku teh in winter
8. Hot springs in winter!!
9. Road trips with friends driving
10. Seeing penguins in their somewhat natural habitat
11. not worrying about insects and food left in the open
12. eating ice cream in winter (ok i only took abit, it was too darn cold)

13. playing with wallabies and touching koalas 

 14. Building snowman

  Unexpected Returns:
1. New friendships

2. Memories so good you want to wipe it out, 'coz all I can do now is revisit them in my brain. In short the trip was awesome beyond words, and this I really credit to Lixuan who put in so much effort so that we could enjoy the trip and also looking after us throughout.With friends like this, I could ask for no more:)

Picture I really like, credits to Carrot.
