Mardi Gras Parade 2010

It was the annual Mardi Gras Parade last Saturday! I actually heard this from the cab driver who drove me when I just touched down on Sydney. So yeah, here goes the Mardi Gras Parade of the year again!

The crowd was insane! Okay maybe it's normal. Along the Oxford St you couldn't get a glimpse of the parade, what you could see were people's back or their legs because most of them stood on chairs! So being a shorty Asian it was almost impossible for me to peek at the parade. What we could do was walking up and down the street, finding a tiny place that I could squeeze in. It was really really hard! Thanks to MZ she kept dragging me else I think I would have given up! And everybody was sweating and you could feel their sweat on you just by squeezing through the crowd. It was.. a little yucky actually. Hehehe.


It was really hard to squeeze into the crowd.


It was really not an easy task to take pictures of the parade with such a mad crowd.


I am glad I saw part of the parade because I missed it last year.


Last year same event same location same crowd, we gave up.


Well I am pretty sure this is the one and only year I get to see this parade.


Music, bands, dances, songs, spotlights, colours, shouts, uniforms, cheers!


From countries around the world, to the one nearest to us Thailand! Oh well no Malaysian representatives. Hehe.


It was definitely a hard task to take pictures as the shorty me was always blocked by balloons, flags, hands, heads and camerasssss!


So that's how Mardi Gras Parade in Sydney was!


It was very very tiring. The crowd kept pushing and squeezing, I couldn't even stand straight! Hand shoulder waist knee none of them were not in pain after that! Oh well thanks to my camera battery, it went flat and that actually 'motivated' me to leave the scene earlier! :)

Life in Sydney begins.

I walked into the class without knowing I'm from a civil law or a common law country. That's sucks! But I guess it's common law because those that put up their hands are mostly Europeans. Ok I know this way is really bad. Thanks to PheyShan I finally got the confirmation through sms. Dumb dumb me.

I'm really thankful to have a place to stay on the day of my arrival and having at least a friend around really makes some differences. Got sushi at home after coming back from enrolment which the appointment was two hours after I just got into the house, so basically I was exhausted to the max. The program officer said I could brake the Guinness World Records because it took me 2 hours to enroll. It feels really lost you have no idea at all! Had a 3 hours nap while my room is being cleaned.

A middle age guy who previously worked in Pakistan taxation department asked me, "What is your plan after this? Do you have plans?", after telling him what courses I've enrolled in. I feel stabbed.

I hope it doesn't take too long to heal, this is what I could pray for now.

We feel younger :)


When we meet up with the olahraga buddies from 3 years older to us the 1988 babies. Aaaaa Herng you are the youngest! =)


It was the small bilik sukan that linked us together with laughter
It was the KL-Genting trip in 2003 that brought us together with joy
It is us that maintain our friendship and strengthen our bond year by year

Spring cleaning the spider web!

Got complained by a few for not swiping away the spiderwebs here! I was soooo lazy to update and everyday seems to be as normal to me. How sad is that! But actually there were something too :)

Happy birthday Xuan! ❤


Hehe I made the birthday cupcakes for Xuan. The white is carrot cupcakes and the purple is vanilla cupcakes. Perhaps you'd say that's not purple but blue, I'd insist it's purple! I had really bought the purple colouring but it turned out that way I have no idea. It's purple!!! :) Oh yea I know the artwork is a bit ugly but this looks more homemade right? Lol alasan banyak banyak!

Next up... LiYin!! where are the photos of us with the huge cups??!?! Gimme gimme!
