...trip to brisbane and perth..!!!

OOpxXx.. din had time to post an entry.. went to visit xz and geraldine @ brisbane on 28feb..

First met geraldine for lunch.. then sent her to work while she direct me the way to gold coast to see xz... so took the transport myself for about 1 hrs.. was abit afraid to miss my station, so i kept looking out for the station map after 30min journey...

Finally alighted at Helensvale station and took a bus that reach Southport - where xz stays. Visited her room - similar to those in singapore which we called one room studio apartment, with unblocked beautiful scenery... then she brought me to surfers paradise where we shop the street market and had our dinner..

Back to her apartment, we realised the bus which i'm supposed to take back to the train station has left. So we check for the next bus arrival time and returned to her apartment to chit chat while waiting for the next bus. Geraldine called then and advised that it's unsafe to take the night train. So she took the trouble all the way to drive from brisbane to Southport then... and back to Brisbane. Really had to thank both of them sooo much for the hospitality!!

Went to visit mel then @ perth on 19mar

Arrived at hotel in the early afternoon... had a good bath n rest b4 meeting mel at about 7pm in the evening.. when i was told shop closes early there (5.30pm).. and i should trust he'll be able to guide me to somewhere that realli opens late. True enough, we went to some place (oOpXxx.. forgot the name) where they sells oriental food. Dunno wad to order, mel said the wheat prawn is good, and we order other usual dishes like sambal kangkong and a plate of pork. It was reaally more than enough for 2 of us.. and in the end we had to dao bao.

Afterwhich, mel show me his apartment there, which he had shared with 2 other female roommates. I never trust that a guy would know how to maintain a clean room but he proved me wrong then... boasting that he just did his laundry etc..
my goodness, i think living alone outside a city of your own, freed from all aids and sometimes advise really made one independent alot, jus like geraldine, and just like xz..i would, perhaps, never understand, neither want/willing to live alone out there... without my loved ones...
