Im so pissed~!!!
Suppose to have 8am lecture this morning.
Dar and me decided on taking the bus414 to school, since it's a straight journey. Was there damn early waiting for the bus and it was supposed to arrive at 7.36am, and before us was alot of people already waiting for it.
The bus was 10mins late, and when it arrived, it zoom past our bus-stop without stopping~!! The bus was pretty empty somemore lo. Can u believe it?
Everyobe at the bus-stop was absolutely stunned.
To make it worst, the frequency of the bus was 1 per hour!!
Arghhhh~!!!!
Blardy hell.
WHAT THE HELL WRONG WITH THE PEOPLE AND TRANSPORT SYSTEM HERE!!!!
Woke up at 6+am for lecture lo, then that bloody bus just drove off like that.
It was 7.46am then, too late to take the train.
If we take the train still have to change bus somemore, will reach school rather late by then.
After the 8am lecture, our next lecture is at 11am. So we decided to return home.
Gosh, just receive another email now, saying the lecture at 11am had changed venue.
If we weren't at home serving net right now, wouldn't even know, and would have stupidly waited at the old venue.
No, the lecturers here are not like those in SG, where they would be kind enough to paste a note at old venue, indicating the venue change. Even if they do, the ang-mos here would disturb and go tear it away or mess up the note.
See, there's SERIOUSLY SOMETHING WRONG with the people here.
I'm sooo ABSOLUTELLY PISSED~!!!

Went to The Australia Zoo today with the guys.
Really sian, the journey there took us 1.5hr as the train frequency was really bad since it's a weekend. It's at 1-2hrs interval, can u believe it?!! Really hate the transport system here.
Honestly, we found the place rather disappointing.
The zoo is huge, but where're the animals???
The enclosure is huge, but 1 enclosure only house 1-2 animals. Duhz?!
Majority are Australia animals such as kangeroos, wombats, wallabies, tasmania devils and koalas. Needless to say, there were crocodiles, lotsa it too.
But lotsa animals we are familiar with were missing from the scene. There were no monkeys, deers, lions, polar bear, penguin, rhinoceros, gorillas etc etc. Asia animals only include elephant and tiger, eh?! Very little right!
The zoo was built to cater more towards the needs of the animal, with the entire zoo designed as close to their natural habitate as possible, than for tourist attraction and profit-making.
The famous live animal show in the zoo was such a huge disappointment too. It was used to convey the message of Wildlife Conservation than entertainment.
No actions at all. =(
So for this trip, i didn't take much pictures, only a few interesting animals i really like.
The train station nearest to the 'ulu' zoo
Shuttle Service
Yeay we reached!

So sad, i blinked in this pic, and it's the only group pic we took! =(

Back from a 4D3N stay at Melbourne!
The weather there was rather extreme, from freezing cold at night to unbearable heat in the day. Forgot my sunglasses, and the blazing sun in the day was so bad i gotta squint my eyes the entire time! Makes my pictures look damn ugly! =(
Stayed at Weiloon's apartment, so lodging was free. Yeay!
Nice apartment! Open concept. The bedroom upstairs got no door or whatsoever, walk up the stairs and you will see a twin bed, wardrobe and table. haha...
2 guys slacking. =x
Here's what lies behind his apartment. ahaha...
Went to tour the city on first day
Melbourne City
The city
Here's where we wait for the city's only transport, the City Tram.
Gotta wait right in the middle of the road, kinda silly isn't it. Gotta tram-hop a couple of times before reaching destination, coz the tram travels straight only, and the roads in the city are perpendicular to each other.
Oh, and buses are rare in city.
Here's what we have to wait for..
The other tram
Melbourne's "MRT", only applies to travelling outside city area.
The other transport option if one can afford it! haha...
City train station
Oldest church in city
Saw a couple of interesting building design along the way...
At first look, we thought it's a bee. But no, it's a Fly! hahaa...
Why would anyone wants a 'fly' on their building?? hmm...
Channel News 7 building in city
Saw their Live Traffic Report helicopter taking off
Another interesting design
2nd day, book a tour to Philip Island.
Woke up early in the morning to tour Uni of Melbourne followed by the famous Queen Victoria Market before heading off to the Philip Island tour.
The famous market
So pretty~!!
We don't have such luxury in Brisbane =(
Our loot.
The entrance to Uni of Melbourne.. hahaa...
The only nice building in there. =x
Nope, i didn't re-use the pic from Uni of Sydney, or Uni of Queensland. haha..
Alright, for the Philip Island tour.
Had our first stop at a tourist farm thingy. Can't remember the exact name.
Met all the famous Aussie animals.
Koala. It's illegal to touch koala in Victoria state. WTH?
Baby wombat, yesh it's a baby.
Tasmania devil
Donkey. You can see it licking food off my hand. ahaha...
Albino kangaroo
On Philip Island at a coastal beach.
The one in the middle is out Melbourne tour guide, Weiloon. =)
At the Nobby's Broadwalk in Philip Island. It's has makeshift walkway where you walk around this 'hill' and view wallabies, hare, penguins.
The main attraction of the tour was the penguin parade. Unfortunately, no cameras allow, coz the flashlight will blind the baby penguin's eyes. =(
Day 3, dar came down with a fever. Didn't tour around much. =(
Day 4, went to St.Kilda Beach. Famous for their cake shop!
St. Kilda Beach
Those displays are real oki!
Some chocolate thingy
Vanilla thingy
Macadamia shortcake! That i remember! haha...
Overall, the trip was ok.
I enjoy Sydney more though, couldn't stand Melbourne's transport system.
Our loot from Melbourne, card game!! Cheaper in Aust than SG.
Alrighty, that's all for now!
Weiloon's coming over from Melbourne to stay with us today!!
Our turn to play host. =)
Ciao~!
