Hey Summer

Hello.

I've been following my mum to school
routine would be help out at the school bookshop, lunch then help out at this other bookstore

bumped into my taekwando teachers back in primary
I missed them and all the taekwando classes :(
anyway, they said I'm tall now!
probably because I was really short back then, but still. TALL :D

Anyway, I'm a lil lazy for words
so I'm just gona throw in a whole pile of pictures here from Australia :)

I took hundreds of pictures in that 2 weeks, so am just gona throw in random ones

my family, Lennart included, of course
Lennart's sorta like a brother, just slightly inappropriately behaved sometimes
He has generously thought me some German, only telling me what it means after I succeed in pronouncing it
Anyone interested in learning german cursewords?

Spent our first few days in Melbourne

HAHA. Lennart got picked to be a ''volunteer'' for this street performer
thanks to his involvement, we had to stand there for half an hour
all he had to do was help lift this guy(in the pic) and pull a string
the performance wasn't bad though

all I wanted was a decent picture of the street

Anyway, just a few days ago, Joon Keit told me that Kevjumba was at Melbourne at the exact same days as I was
half of me wanted to kill him for telling me that cause now I know I had a chance to see Kevjumba but didn't! boohoo


Next, we drove to Frankston(dad got us a car) about an hour's drive from Melbourne

where we spent the next 5 days or so with auntie Sharon & uncle Glenn
we stayed at their place, but it couldn't fit all 6 of us

so they got a caravan parked right infront of their house
my eldest bro & Lennart slept there
second brother was supposed to, but he was too much of a girl and slept in, heh.

I didn't care that I looked like a boxfish in that oversized coat, I was freezing
it was supposed to be summer, but the weather's got us punk'd

were looking at mum's camera

Uncle Glenn with auntie Sharon (:
they made us feel so at home with them
looking forward to them visiting us again in M'sia

wine tasting
should have taken the picture when the wine was still in there

vineyard. fart.

at some sanctuary or wildlife park
this fella here was the only active one

if it wasn't for the kangaroo dung all over, I would have rolled along with him

we could have been best friends.. sigh.

Operation being done
see how the dingo's tongue sticks out

one of the days in Frankston, went over to uncle Paul & auntie Penny's place
Paul taught us how to play cricket :D

my dad looking all professional and ready
but after this picture, he somehow managed to swing the bat so hard, did a near 360 turn then fell on the floor
my dad's probably the only person who can pull that off

we had a few games before dinner
I wasn't that good at it
but I deserve credit for trying! (:

helping to fix the gate.

Lennart chilling by their house pool

my dad the masterchef (:

on the 7th day, we went to Phillip island
we tried surf boarding
the water was rather cold, but got used to it after a while
it was hard for me to get back into the sea after catching a wave cause the current and waves kept pushing me back to the beach
it was fun, though the waves got the better of me

seagulls were everywhere.

Nobbie
absolutely beautiful place

didn't I mention? I'm 3 months pregnant

bbbblowhole

eldest brother and I did diving the next day at Portsea
In the boat, I felt so tiny cause the other divers were mostly aged between 40-55
I was the only person there whose legs couldn't touch the floor :/
most of them had bags to catch crayfishes

the water was freezing cold, even though the wet suit was really thick
upon entry, there were so many small comb jellyfishes infront of me
I sorta froze and slowly descended, doubt they can do much harm though?
pretty lil things
we were suppose to hit a wall, but our orientation was a lil off so we missed it, aww.
saw a starfish and an eel.
the aquatic variety there wasn't much, but it was nice diving at a different environment anyway
I shivered like an idiot on the boat ride back
felt like every cell in my body was doing a different dance

while we were diving, my second brother & Lennart did.. stand boarding? I'm not sure what it's called
it's where you stand on this surfboard-lookalike and kayak

Christmas! (:
exchanging gifts

oh and that's Tristan, their son
he's more of a stay-in-room type

11 hour train ride to Sydney
this was the view we got for most of the ride
once in a while, sheeps and horses pop out

Lost flower in the city

looking at the Sydney Harbour bridge
we walked across it after that, just to walk back again

Sydney Opera House, not to forget the random ferry too of course

LOOK at the joey in the pocket! :D
I would have tried touching it, but the mum would've just punched me to death or something

woops. wrong angle. of picture, i mean

Featherdale Wildlife park

one of the days we spent in Sydney, took a one day trip
this guy was our tour guide
never caught his name :/
really nice dude
taught us how to throw the boomerang
when he was teaching me, he told me to put my left foot forward, and I confidently put my right foot forward
sigh, I take some time differentiating from left to right

walking through a rainforest at the Blue Mountains
we were suppose to see alot of amazing sights
but, due to the rain earlier, all we saw was fog

view from Sydney tower
I had a hard time trying to take a picture without capturing the reflection on the glass

this merman's made of Lego

Sydney Aquarium

Sydney Wildlife Park

Manly beach
I've never seen such a crowded beach in my life
the boys went for a swim
I lazed near the beach

yeahh, the australia trip greatly contributed to my excessive tan

and for the first time, I had 2 new years (Australian time and local time here) and I spent both of it fast asleep on the plane

Lennart's back in Germany now
left 2 days ago :(
my room still smells strongly of his deo
where's the airfreshener when I need it?
