Term break hols

Had a great one week term break after all the stress from the assignments. Also, it is to recharge for the upcoming end-of-month exams.

First up, Royal Melbourne Festival on Monday!



I bought a showbag with an Afro wig!! Got devil's horn hairbands!! CareBear toy!! Face paint of a butterfly!! Enjoyed rides that were so exhilarating!!

We spent the most time at the showbag counters which was the highlight of the festival where people buy loads of different showbags that had items that exceed the value of the retail price. Though I only got one showbag... I AM HAPPY!!

The next day, went to collect our rented Hyundai Getz and headed up to Grampians which is located at outer Melbourne, 3 hours drive away from the city. Scenery was great and kangaroos freely roamed around in front and behind our cottage, on the roads and everywhere!! We tried fishing at Lake Wartook on the 1st day and had bbq for dinner. We were delighted to learn our cottage came with a fireplace!!



Learnt horse-riding on the 2nd day, visited The Balconies, McKenzies Waterfall and played a game of frisbee with Ting among a beautiful field with loads of kangaroo poo poo... Eww... Black poo poo...



Day 3, visited The Gap Vineyard and a lavender patch on our drive back to the city. Thank god there was trance to keep me awake throughout the drive!!



Friday, headed down to Beach Club... But the greatest fun was heading over to friend's place after party! Heaps of great pics!



Played drinking games at friend's pad and left at 7am in the morning with lotsa alcohol and laughter within. Got back to Ting's place to get our stuff and Jun demonstrated a massive water sprinkler at the train station. Finally home sweet home but couldn't slp on my bed cos it was taken over by 2 guys. I instead was banished to the couch and to a wooden bed in charm's room for the night. Haha~ but it was fun!! I am smiling!!
