ive been meaning to write abt my sydney trip and all, but im just so LAZY.
So much for my new yrs resolution, stop procastinating.
Every year i make so many resolutions, this yr i figured, i just need to sort one thing out and my whole life would turn around, that would be to stop procastinating. I would do well at uni, i would do well with housework, which would make my mom happy and just overall make everything perfect(err).
Anyways, i went to sydney on the 19th of dec and got back on the 4th of Jan.
IT was pretty good i guess. I wasnt totally satisfied, but i think thats just becuz of me, as i cant stay happy for too long, and everytime im happy, right after that comes a long course of depression. But anyways, i stayed at ridis. Uncle and aunty treated me like a queen. I had like 2 mangoes EVERYDAY!!!! aaaahhhh. they tried to get me to eat more, but i couldnt possibly:S
Ridi was osum besides the tantrums once or twice a day, dats another story though. We went shopping and to the beaches quite a bit.
I finally saw THE SYDNEY HARBOUR BRIDGE & THE OPERA HOUSE. it was hard to believe that after watching all that on tv my whole life, i finally came face to face. It was so funny, how i was at the harbour and every now n then id look at the bridge and jump and squeal, omigod its the bridge. It wasnt like the bridge or the opera house was sumthing out of this world, but i dunno, its just one of those things, ur like omigod, ITS THE BRIDGE:S
hehehe.
I didnt get to go clubbing.sigh. planned all that, didnt work out. oh well. next time. BUt on new yrs, ther were thousands and thousands of ppl at the harbour for the fireworks, and a good friend of mine, aziza, her mate james aunty(ah contacts:P)had a gazillion dollar apartment right at the harbour.like literally, i kid u not. So it was osum to be up on the 16th floor and watch everything, and i kept thinkin, how i normally loook up at the rich ppl n b like, ah the lifestyle. i got a taste of it that night, and felt like yes, envy ME you ppl:) it wasnt a party exactly, cuz they were all tight christian kids. There was only 12 of us. ANd i met all of them for the first time, and they really made me feel so comfortable. There was hardly any alcohol, besides the champagne to celebrate the new yr, meanwhile all the other apartments in the building had all these "rich parties" the richness just oozes out.funny how u can feel the richness. I wanted to go to the penthouse to have a look, but yeah it was private private. So that was a different kind of experience. I couldnt go clubbing as aziza had work the next morning, but oh well, i can always go clubbing, but i cant exactly go to a gazillon dollar apartment everyday:).
What else, the thing that i loved abt sydney the most was that HOW BIG it was. Auckland is a freaking village. Its like this suburb in sydney. And i loved it being so big. Im soooo a city girl. SO imagine, how big toronto would be.So instead of being all im going to toronto and bla bla, being practical and realistic, ive decided that the next stepping stone would be sydney. After i graduate(hopefully one day), ill move to sydney, which is no problem at all. get a job, apparently there are jobs everywher, i could study part time. Dont know havent decided all that, but yeah for sure. Ill move to sydney for a few yrs, and if im still keen on toronto, i can move there, and if not, then ill stay in sydney. SYdney is hot all year around, which is a bit of a plus point although it can get omigod-im-dying too hot, but should be betta than torontos weather.Ive turned dark black from all the sun and not applying sunscreen helped.
I went to the FAMOUS BONDI.wohoo. it was nice, i mean all the beaches are just as nice, i guess it just got lucky, but yeah saw a lotsssss of tittties here n there. even took fotos. heheh..cheeky me:S
Anyhowwww, enough abt sydney, back to reality.ew. But ive started summer school and god i hate it. Im doing a new accounting paper and redoing macroeco. doing 2 papers in summer school is impossible but i have no choice.ugh. i should start be4 its too late. its the same cycle over and over again:(
enough for now.toodles.
PS: shopping wise, as it was xmas n new yrs, everything was on sale. SO i spent abt 160 bux only, but i got 3 wallets, a pair of shoes and sandals, trackpants, jeans, grey pants, 2 jumpers, all this funky plastic jewellry, 4 tops, 3 funky bags which i ADORE and which cost me 20 bux overall, how cooL!!!
ah mmmmmmm.
