Melbourne 2008

I am in Melbourne now, staying in a nice serviced apartment @ St Kilda. I wish I can get to know Melbourne a little better, as recently I've had a chance to come to Melbourne every now and then.

This time, my friends and I went to a very nice winery in Yarra Valley for lunch. The difference between Yarra and Hunter Valley is that the wineries in Yarra Valley are all over the valley, whereas the wineries in the Hunter are more centralised.

Personally I reckon the taste for white wines are alot lighter in Yarra than the ones in the Hunter. My friends are serious wine collectors. All the wines they collected have put away nicely in the Kennards Self Storage - Wine storage section. I have never heard of this kind of thing before - I always thought that they only provide storage solutions for furnitures etc. Apparently they have one section that is exclusively for wine storage. They have a temperature and humidity control to keep good wines safe. Of course they have to be good wines in order to qualify for a place in there :)

Will post some photos soon.

Why, Aussie dollar dropped so much????

Sometimes I wonder...

What is it like when you don't have a stable job (deliberately), and do contracting here and there?

Must be fun.

Headache

Today I had a headache that followed me around whole day. It went away for a bit after lunch time but it came back after 4pm until now!

Why why why? Why am I forced to do all these things? They always want you to do something in order to "see your talent"or something. IS THIS REALLY NECESSARY?

I just want to be happy. thats it.

OMG..

OMG, I haven't started packing yet, and I am flying to Melbourne tomorrow!

Good thing is that I have already checked in, just need to run straight to the boarding gate...keke

Freebies...

Its meant to be a hot chocolate - where you put the small pieces of chocolate into a cup, melt it in the microwave, and put some milk onto the melted chocolates.

However i was just too lazy and put the chocolate directly into my mouth :P

Yummy.

My new toy :D

Been sick and tired of my "brick" mobile phone, I have decided to search for a new one.

My ideal phone would be a small and compact all-in-one phone with touch screen.

At the moment i don't think theres anything available on the market yet....so i have to find my next ideal one I suppose.

I always wanted to go back to Nokia as I found it more user-friendly.

Here is my new phone :)
