8 weeks... 2 months...???

And so it's officially my 8th week here in melbourne... :)
~
Or should i say 2 months... But if i were to say 2 months... It should fall on the 14th of April and not today the 11th... But whichever way it is... The fact is i've landed on australia land for 8 weeks...!!!
~
And it also means i've been away from home for 8 weeks... The longest period of time ever since the past 20 years... And it's still counting on...
~
So when it was 1 month... Remember i had the cooking session with a group of friends... Guess what's my "rewards" this time round during my 2nd month... 2nd brother came all the way down from adelaide for me...!!! Alright, i know i've mentioned it before... But do feel the excitement from me... *yeah*
~
It all happened as a coincidence again... Not really as if brother purposely choose to come down during my 2nd month in australia... It just happened that our holiday started on friday by the way... Good friday is a public holiday here... So brother travelled down on friday and reached around 9+pm... Quite late... But nothing beats the fact that brother arrived... So he reached my place, took shower and a bit of a rest... And he brought me to a place i've never been to before... There's an age limit to enter and something i disapprove of doing ---> The Crown... Well, you all should be able to guess what the Crown is already... It's a casino... I've definately not enter Genting's casino before because i haven't reach 21 years... But i think australia age limit is 18 (never mind about that, they let me in after all)...
~
And all in such a coincidence again... I stepped into the casino at 12midnight... What a good welcome to my 8 weeks... They told me that australia casino will have better environment as compared to malaysia cause most importantly... Australia casino don't allow you to smoke inside... First time into Crown... I've never expect that it'll be so big inside (afterall it's my first time entering a casino)... Other than that... Nothing really attracts me... Cause all the tables, people betting, we'll have seen a whole heaps of it on television programs...
~
Let's now go into saturday program then... We were suppose to go bendigo in the morning... And then city tour after bendigo trip... Being tourists... A lot of times, time needed to travel are hard to estimate... And oh yah... Did i forget to mention my brother brought his girlfriend and his girlfriend's sister along on the trip also...
1) First we decided not to go bendigo because there's this citylink we have to pass through... We don't really know what's citylink, we don't know the amount we have to pay and lastly, we don't know the methods of paying... Given so much of trouble, might as well don't go and don't have to think so much...
2) It takes 2.30 hours just to travel to bendigo... To and fro takes up a total of 5 hours... We have decided that it's not worth the travel... And so... Conclusion is cancel bendigo trip and just walk around city...
~
I didn't stay with them for long in the city in the end... There's nothing i got to buy... I don't know them well and there's no common topic... And it's weird when my brother is talking with the girlfriend but me and the girlfriend's sister got nothing to talk about... And it seems even not right if my brother keeps talking to me and not the girlfriend... And the girlfriend and me also seldom talk... I do feel uncomfortable... Yes i know second brother will read this... I just wanted to let you know that the situation has been weird... I tried but after all... Your sister, me, really do have a personality that i don't get along well with people easily... I'm sorry... I really apologise... All i could do was not to show my unhappinese... I didn't want to make things hard for you... I know what girlfriends want... Cause i'm a girl also... I want you to enjoy the melbourne trip to the maximum... I want you to spend a fruitful time with your girlfriend... So i left city by myself first...
~
That's how my 8th week anniversay in australia pass by... No photos taken... Nothing... Just another peaceful saturday... Going philip island tomorrow... And for those who don't know... Philip island main's attraction is to see penguins... Hopefully pictures will be taken and tomorrow will be a better day...
~
Never the less... I still appreciate the fact that second brother drove all the way down with one main motive in mind which is to see me and make sure things are alright... We still did have heart to heart talk though a lot lesser... But sometimes it's better to count your blessings than complaints... So...

"Thank you 二哥"

Once and again... I'm glad that i've such good brothers in my life... And yes... 大哥, you are included as well...
