Blogging from Perth domestic airport. Can't wait to go back to Sydney yet can't bear to leave the family.

Greetings to my faithful readers out there, if there's any left. February arrived too soon and we celebrated my sister's first birthday away from home in a simple way. Cupcakes lit candles at home. One of the many times we actually managed to get a family picture together. At least she had us around to celebrate it with.




After work yesterday, I brought them to tour around the opera house and the rocks highlighting the night life and the buzz on a friday night. It was jam packed full of live entertainment with the hustle and bustle of the crowd spending their time drinking with their friends. We ended up at pancakes at the rocks for dinner and it was crowded as usual even though their food is so-so.









I literally stuffed myself during that dinner cos I was too tired and hungry from working and walking. So I decided to bring them to another spot to view the quay's scenery as an excuse to walk off the fats that were digesting in my tummy. I brought them to a small observatory deck located at the wharfs were there weren't many people at all. I wonder if anyone know it's there. And I managed to capture really good photos this time. *smirks*







I'm seriously contemplating to get an all rounder zoom lens to compensate my lack of zoom on my prime lens. And when I told my mum that I wanted to make photography as a career and engineering as a hobby, she showed me the look. A look of raised eyebrows yet showing disappointment. It was all a joke obviously.

My heart hurts.....


Edit : And now you've ripped it apart into pieces and shoved it down the drain.

I'm in a rut!


I'm so mentally and physically drained that even a long night's sleep can't help. I've been bombarded with so many worries and thoughts I don't even know what to do. And me being so egoistic doesn't allow me to spill my worries to just anyone. I hate the feeling of caring and loving someone so much that eventually I have to depend on them. Whatever choices I make is for their sake as well. I don't mind situations like that but when things go sour, I can't stop thinking of that someone no matter what I do. It's just so hard to forget and this is definitely the first time I've felt so strongly about this bond between us. I can't seem to let go and I don't want to. But it hurts so much that you feel like you're stranded on a desert 500 miles away from a nice cold dessert or being ignored by someone for that matter. Sigh. Someone please kill me.

Its been a week since the family is here and it's been really fun to have them around after not seeing them for a year. Being a tour guide is so tiring considering I'm still working part time and having to prepare for my supplementary exam. I've never felt this worn out in such a long time that sometimes I just want to lie down and never wake up. But it's good having them around as they help clean up the house even though I told them not to. And I haven't been feeling well lately due to my recurring asthma that came back from 3 years ago! Breathing was so hard for me that I couldn't get enough sleep for 3 nights in a row.


At times like these, I feel like work has become a burden and I feel like quitting. But I've been getting alot of shifts lately which I need to cover my expenses especially the eating out and shopping with the family.


Highlights of the week include going to fish market, Birkenhead point, and crashing at a relative's place in Cronulla.



















There's just so much food that I'm pretty sure I'm gaining weight even though I'm controlling my intake. We also manage to go on a boat ride courtesy of my uncle on Sunday.







Ricky Ponting's house!!

I no longer feel wanted or needed anymore.


Bye.

Today, life as we know has ended. No more late nights of supper or mahjong. My dearest LY has gone back to Malaysia for a whole 2 months and my family will be here in 4 days. I'm already missing her as she waved goodbye before heading into the departure hall. Gone are the days where I could just see her anytime I want, even at work. At least she won't be missing Sydney too much seeing how much home sweet home has to offer for her. I hope she puts on weight and eats more food like her steam fish and teo chew porridge. Don't forget to buy me something too!


Prior to her final days in Sydney before her departure, we had dinner at Arisun with a few of her MASA buddies. Dinner was pretty decent and we had fun. Pictures will do the talking.



Hand towels that resembled marshmellows.











I didn't get to take the famous fried chilli chicken as we couldn't wait to dig in. We even got a chance to meet up with Kenny and Andre for late supper and went back to help the lovergirl with her last minute packing.


I'm already missing her so much and 2 months feel like a longgggggg way to go.

Today marks the end of our last mahjong/poker/left for dead 2 session with LY as she'll be going back for the holidays. I'll miss her ALOT for the next two months. *tears trickling down my cheek*








PS : I'm sorry I won so many chips from poker. =)

I love my dslr!!!hahaha..It's been more than a month and I can't seem to get tired of it. Special thanks to LY for acquiring the purchase for me. Couldn't have done it without her. I don't even feel the need for a point and shoot anymore, cept maybe to give Nigel's LX3 a whirl. =)



That's my baby right there!






Being random with my dslr.


Another week till I get to see my family again. And my sister will be taking my camera hostage I reckon! Miss that little fatty bom bom....heheh..


PS : I'll miss the other lady that's going back to Malaysia too!
