Sorry for the late(X100) posting due to my laziness haiz. Anyway let me share with u regarding my trip to HK. This time i went to Macau, HK, Shenzhen and Tsu Hai for a period of 3 weeks. It may seem long but when it comes to visit relative, a month is also not enough for me!
Pics For the DAY!
Me and my cousin in his house! He's going crazy when i hug him...Haiz
I am finally part of the Beijing Olympic Games! Probably in the swimming section...
Streets in Macau as well. U may observe that the buildings have the European style of architechure as Macau once was colonised by the Portugese.

- Sydney Opera House-This is really a great place to visit when u come to Aus, becoz it is even more magnificent than Spore Esplanade(isn't that obvious?!).There are a total of 5 performance halls inside, one for drama, one for band music and so on.
- Scenic World-A MUST-SEE SCENE! The Three Sisters and the surrounding greenish scene is so so so so marvellous. It just stop my breathing for that point of time. From the cableway, the bird's eye view from the cable car, u can see waterfalls, mountains and many many more.
- railway leading us around the scenic world
- Jenolan Caves-This was fun!!!!!!! We got to run across the cave with the lights switching off behind us and we had to run like thunderbolt to reach the opening of the cave, so scary, especially when the cave was pitch-dark.HELP! Of course, everybody scream like hell. Below video shows the pathway down the deepest hole in the cave. U can see a lot of limestone around.

- National Museum of Australisa
- Canberra Deep Space Tracking Station.
It was one of the NASA station in the world and the inspiring speaker,Glen, told us how Earth was so minute compared the whole universe. He also introduced us to new planets discovered, like Make Make and he even shared with us the latest photos taken of Mars-"live"
3.Old Parliament House
A series of roleplaying took place. This is Nigel and Jia Yi who played the role of the governors in Aus in the past...haha. They were so cute in fact!
4.Australian War Memorial
Got to witness the pre-ceremony of the Rememberance Day! Brass Band and squats could be seen
5. Questacon -The Science & Tech Centre
Got to experience free fall by fallling vertically downwards...Really scary when i recalled it again, insulin really rushes to my whole body. Also, played the game of throwing of ball with Wang Zi.it looked simple but the faster the roatating speed, the tendency of throwing the ball to the opp person will be getting harder, due to some physics theory said by the HCI friends.
Most of all i love the AIS (Australia Institue of Sport), coz we had the chance to play basketball with the Australian national basketball player and they had an average height of 200 cm. Their awesome throwing techinques and tricks made me feel disheartened, especially when from afar, u could see that it is a match of gaints and dwarfs. (There is actually a video abt the whole match, must take from robin...Will upload asap)
Bangaboaoui: Aboriginal Cultural Harbour Cruise-
We had the chance to witness the real Aboriginals in Australia. U may wonder what are Aboriginals? They were actually native people in Aus, before the British came, but due to the arrival of more convicts sent from British, Aborigianl population in Aus.

Hi guys, it is such a long time since i had my last post. Just came back to Spore yesterday night, still cant get used to the current time in Spore, as in Aus, it is 3 hours ahead...The weather was really comfortable yet cold there because i like the cold, although i nose-bleed quite a lot of times.
My very first...

- encounter with wild kangaroos, koalas and emu
- Chinese song guessing game 百万大歌星
- ride in A380
- continous nose-bleeding
- basketball game with Australian National Basketball Players(tall guys;at least 200 cm)
- encounter with carbonate and alkaline water
- time of being late with Robin when others are already awake(due to late-sleeping habits)
- experience with the Aboriginals
- time paying respect to the courageous, bravery soldiers of WW2 in Rememberance Day(11th Nov)
- sharing a mountain of seafood with Lewis(causing me to feel extremely bloated)
- chance to take a dosmetic flight from Canberra to Syndey (vice versa)
- time to feel that Chinese FOOD is the BEST!!!!! after a few days of western food
- nickname (the whole group as well)-Piggies, since we only know how to "eat,sleep, walk a bit"
Will post again asap with pics...Now i want to pack my luggage and sleep!

I just love his every album!The lyrics are so meaningful...Hope u guys enjoy it!
Here are the lyrics:
對這個世界如果你有太多的抱怨
If you have too many grievances towards this world,
跌倒了就不敢繼續往前走
Having fallen, you lose the courage to go on
為什麼人要這麼的脆弱 墮落
Why do people want to be so weak and fallen?
請你打開電視看看
Please turn on the television now and see for yourself
多少人為生命在努力勇敢的走下去
So many people bravely fighting for their lives
我們是不是該知足
Shouldn't we be content,
珍惜一切 就算沒有擁有
Cherish all we have, even if we don't possess them
*還記得你說家是唯一的城堡
I still remember you said home is your only castle
隨著稻香河流繼續奔跑
Following the paddy fragrance, the flowing stream, I continued running
微微笑 小時候的夢我知道
Smile, I know the childhood dreams
不要哭讓螢火蟲帶著你逃跑
Don't cry, let the fireflies take you away, escaping
鄉間的歌謠永遠的依靠
You will always find serenity in folk songs
回家吧 回到最初的美好
*Go home, return to the sweet past
不要這麼容易就想放棄 就像我說的
Don't give up so easily, just like what I said,
追不到的夢想 換個夢不就得了
If the dream can't be reached, then just follow another dream
為自己的人生鮮艷上色
Add bright colours to your own life
先把愛塗上喜歡的顏色
Paint LOVE in your favourite colour
笑一個吧 功成名就不是目的
Smile, fame and success isn't the aim
讓自己快樂快樂這才叫做意義
Be happy. That is the whole meaning
@ 童年的紙飛機 現在終於飛回我手裡
(Just like how) I finally found my lost childhood innocence
#所謂的那快樂 赤腳在田裡追蜻蜓追到累了
What is happiness? It's chasing dragonflies in the fields barefooted till we're exhausted
偷摘水果被蜜蜂給叮到怕了 誰在偷笑呢
Tried to steal fruits but suffered so much beestungs until i am scared. Who's snickering (at me)?
我靠著稻草人吹著風唱著歌睡著了
Leaning against the scarecrow, enjoying the wind, singing songs till I fall asleep
哦 哦 午後吉他在蟲鳴中更清脆
Oh~ Oh~ In the afternoon, the guitar chords sound more crisp amidst the cries of the insects
哦 哦 陽光灑在路上就不怕心碎
Oh~ Oh~ The sunlight shines on the road so there's no need to fear a heartbreak
珍惜一切 就算沒有擁有
#Cherish everything, even if we don't possess them
Repeat **#*

Today was such a enjoyable trip to kallang! Thanks to Nadar, we purposely capsized the kayak, haha...
As DQ and me needed to go to JJC for practical, we had to bathe obviously. However due to unforeseen circumstances, the guy's toilet was occupied by someone and we decided to bathe at fairway country club. Hadn't been to the country club since Sec 1, we had forgotten that entry charge was required. Dumb xia!
In the end, we bathe at JSS, u know what, in the 3rd level Gents toilet, i was in the midway finishing my bathing and Mr Allen came interrupted us. Wao lao eh...I looked at him with my towel covering my u know what and he looked at me and politely asked us to get out. Heng ah!
PS: Hope no teachers read my blog...
