_i'm jus a kidd]]*_

    I'M BACK!I AM BACKKK!phew i survived the flight!cos my ears were thoroughly blocked and it was really painful,and i couldnt do anything to get the air out of my ears.well anyway,many things happened yesterday,though we only went to tasmania's cadbury chocolate factory and melbourne.okay,first thing in the morning,we visited cadbury chocolate factory.it was an impressive factory,cos they were very strict and serious abt their chocolate-making,and once something goes wrong they will immediately stop the whole huge machine,which actually happens quite often.we got to taste many kinds of chocolate on the way.i find the pure milk chocolate a little too milky so i didnt really fancy it.but actually i dun really eat cadbury chocolates eccept the ones that had nuts in them.i juz didnt like the chocolates they make.but there's one i like:the rum and raisin one.very nice:)after that we had a little chocolate shopping.my parents bought alot of chocolates!but mostly not for us to eat haha.they bought for our relatives and my dad's company.we then proceeded to the hobart airport,which is in tasmania,but it's not an international airport so it doesnt fly to singapore,only places near it like melbourne.the flight took onli 1 hour.
    when we arrived in melbourne international airport,there were 3 hours left to our next flight to singapore,but after the checking-in stuff half an hour was gone.my parents wanted to shop at the melbourne market and along the streets so we rushed outside to flag a taxi.the female taxi-driver was very friendly.ok this was wad we spoke in the taxi.
    dad:we want to get to central.
    taxi-driver(TD):SHANTRO???
    dad:nonono,CENTRAL
    TD:OH CENTRAL,CENTRAL MELBOURNE!oh sure sure come on in!
    (on the way there,my dad,being such a busybody,asked alot of questions that seem to baffle the taxi-driver,and the questions were wad a normal person wouldnt know how to answer)
    TD:do you want to go to victoria street to shop at the market?
    dad:(frowns)victoria street?
    TD:yes,that is a very busy street also.
    dad:okay.
    (starts shooting questions)
    dad:so.....how long does it take to travel from one end of melbourne to the other?
    TD:(laughs nervously)people seem to ask me the difficult questions!erm i dunno,probably XXXhours?
    dad:wad abt by car?
    TD:i've never tried it but i tink it'll take abt 16 hours.
    dad:(blank look)SIX-THIRTY???
    TD:SIXTEEEEEEEEN
    dad:oh haha sorrysorry
    dad:wad abt by plane?
    TD:around XXX hours.
    dad:so......is this car yours?or does it belong to the company?
    TD:oh we rented it,so it actually belongs to us.
    dad:oh......so how much do u get from taxi-driving?
    TD:fifty-fifty.
    dad:where do u stay?
    TD:i stay at the XXX area.
    dad:oh so how much time do u take to get here?
    TD:erm abt XXXmin?
    dad:oh.what is this place called?
    TD:oh this is XXX.
    dad:(asks lots of questions abt the place till i almost wanted to scream at him)
    and then he asked the wrong thing.....
    dad:so....how much is your salary?
    TD:(like tigeress)YOU THINK IM GOING TO TELL YOU MY WAGE?YOU THINK SO?THIS IS MY BUSINESS AND YOUR WAGE IS YOUR BUSINESS
    i thought that she was too fed-up with my dad for asking so many questions so she exploded
    dad:...............(dunno wad to say)
    TD:IT'S RUDE.IT'S RUDE.it's rude to ask people how much they earn.this is my business and your wage is your business.in australia it's rude to ask.
    dad:(enlightens)OH sorry sorry!it's rude?
    TD:YES.
    dad:hahaha sorry sorry
    TD:(turns into a lamb)it's OKAYYYY.HAHAHA.
    then my dad sort of kept quiet.most of the time she spoke.

    the taxi fare was so ex!you should see the meter:every few seconds 10 cents is added.we dropped off at the market.it was a busy sight.most of the vendors were chinese.we bought cherries(again),mangoes(again) and strawberries.then we walked out to the streets.we bought some hot pastry and it was a wonderful feeling!cos it was cold and my whole body was warmed up!there werent many shops cos we had to walk further to the central,where it's the busiest.however,we were pressed for time.so,after buying something at the 7-eleven store,and taking a few more pictures,we took a taxi back HAHAHA.oh i haven said how much the taxi fare costs.it is abt 40 bucks!which is equals to 52 singapore dollars!one trip!so you can imagine how much we spent juz on the taxi fare,like a hundred sing dollars??!!!and we spent one hour on the trip to the central and back to the airport.so it was really a wasted trip.we could have used that money to buy other things in the airport.sigh.

    but the airport is wad i really wanna talk about.okay.my parents and i were in this ripcurl shop.then while i was looking at something,i heard a voice:"nawww" which is actually "no",but with a light aussie accent.so i turned my head and saw a skinny person and a salesgirl.the skinny person was frantically looking for a pair of pants.then i realised something:isnt she cynthia koh???!!!!the one who acted as the bad sister in holland v.and yes it was her!she looks so small,and she was carrying two huge bags.hehe so i 'trotted' up to my parents who were at the other end to tell them abt it.i used 'trotted' cos i wanted to treat it as nothing big,like seeing a Singaporean artiste in the Melbourne airport,next to me,isnt such a big deal.just then,i spotted another person!guess who.ok it's hard to guess i noe.so i shall reveal.that person is weng1 qing1 hai3,the guy who always acts in wushu shows.i dunno his english name,but he also acted as a policeman in Heartlander.my dad actually went up to him and said hi!i almost fainted of embarrassment,so i quickly ran to the jackets area cos they were bg enough to hide me.they talked for awhile.but i could see that he's quite friendly.he doesnt put on airs.then we left the shop and i asked my dad what he said.he said that he was starring in this gourmet thing,and two artistes were appointed for each station.something like the tv programmes on food we watch on channel 8 larh.but this is for channel 5.before we passed the immigration gates,we hopped into this shop and bought the crunchy nougats.i love them!but thats not the point haha.the thing is,i saw someone that i noe again.we were paying for the nougats,then i casually turned my head,and then i saw MR LOW or LOH or LO!!!i forgot how to spell his name but he's that guy who was in-charge of discipline together with mrs bay in my primary school.i was like shocked?then he also saw me so we waved.hahahahaha.it's a weird thing to do.but that was how we responded.beside him there was this petite woman so i assumed that they were married.well i couldnt believe my luck.while waiting for our plane,i saw someone that i noe again!she's miss seah,a teacher in my primary school who teaches english.my eldest brother was taught by her for 3 years last time.my mum knows her so she went over to chat with her.hahaha.and there's another coincidental thing.there's this newly-wed couple in my tour group.to the people who attended the p6 gathering party at my house,you all noe that amandas left early cos she and her mum had to attend someone's wedding dinner rite?well,this couple is the couple whose wedding amandy and her mum attended!hahahahahahahaha....and they live very near each other somemore!!!!hahahahaha...so funny......


    bah i feel so lost.today when i woke up my mind was a blank.there was nothing awaiting me.and when i opened my eyes,i saw my bedroom,not the motel room.and it's just kindda sad.it's like though we didnt stay at a posh hotel and have good food,but at least we had lotsa fun and the sightseeing was nice too.i feel like a part of me still wants to remain there,and im not ready to let go.when i woke up,i knew nothing fun was awaiting me,i knew that i could no longer board the bus and be driven to somewhere fun,on a mountain or at the shopping area.i knew i'll no longer see wombats,koalas,or tasmanian devils,no longer eat their food,visit the historical places,feel the cold air or fall asleep on the bus.things that i'm not looking forward to are awaiting me.


    i wanna go back to that place.
n life is jus a nitemare'
