There's a crack in my heart...
To be honest everyone, I feel crappy at this very moment.

Plenty...
Sorry for the amazingly long absence from this blog.
Time really fly fast.
I think I shall start with the most recent event then. Just got back from Sydney. This time we went to Hunter Valley, where all the Shiraz and Semillion of Australia come from.
Was there for 3days 2 night and stayed in a haunted house @.@
was scared to death for the first night after reading the entries from previous visitors to that house!
The house was a lovely old farm house however getting to the place wasn't at all lovely because the only access to the place is dirt gravel road.The loveliest part of this house is the bathroom, which has a cool underfloor heating. Thus making it the warmest place of the house.
The old phone really works but it gave us a jump when it rang*Spooky*
I love this bed...the best i have ever slept on so far.It's hard to get up once you lie on it.
Absolutely love this view..especially in the morning with lots of bird sound.
As for the most interesting part of this house, which we only found out when we got there was that the house still has some of it's original occupants. A boy with a tricycle and his granny and the boy would come out and play in the early morning of 3am! Previous visitor got woken up by his tricycle sounds on the veranda and the moving rocking chair. I heard the noise made by the tricycle on the first night but was too scared to validate the source of sound so I can just say that it's probably some sound from the heater in the next room.
The place was still lovely when the morning came, we found out that there were 4 cows munching grass on our front lawn! It's a pity that I was enjoying the moment and forgot to take the picture of 4 really cute cow eating...
Apart from the house we went around to a few wineries and I bought a few bottles of really nice ones.

There's an earthquake in Melbourne!
It happened yesterday night before 9. When I was just sitting down browsing through the TV channels...
At first I thought it was my brother jumping up and down, then I realized that's pretty stupid...
Well, according to the news report the quake center is located around 90km south-east of Melbourne the magnitude is recorded as 4.6 on the Richter scale...
and there you go the highlight of yesterday

Christmas is just round the corner and this is my first time spending Christmas in Australia considering that I have been here for nearly 3 years now.
There is festive atmosphere everywhere I go in Melbourne. The decorations put up are really beautiful but I still think that the decorations in Malaysia's shopping center is way more extravagant...hehe...
here some pics... so enjoy
This is window display on Myers... This year's theme is "How Santa Really Work?" Showing above is the production department...
this is the storage department...the santa is so cute!!
The letters department where all the letters from the children are read
and of course...the transport department...which is very important!!!hehe....
The graffitti wall... Written on it is all the little kid's Christmas wishes...
on Federation Square is the Advent Calendar... every night @9pm...there will be a little performance to reveal things that represent Christmas...
Apart from Melbourne, the decorations in Sydney is pretty unique with
a Christmas tree being made out of chairs and the humongous tree in QVB that I only manage to get only a small part the tree.
it looks like a pile of old chairs to me...but I heard it's pretty when the lights are turn on at night...

Well...
I have disappeared long enough and I apologise for the lack of update.
If anyone is still visiting this long abandon blog, I have a troubled mind that needs to be cleared.
here is the problem...
It's nearly half a year since my boyfriend move back to sydney, meaning he is currently living with his parents and I have always thought that I get along with his mom. That I never really need to worry about her not liking me or something on that line.
But after this trip to sydney, something happen and it made me think otherwise. From what I gather, there may be more than one occasion that she complain about me to George.
To be honest, I am surprise. Because she seem to be courteous to me. Saying that she doesn't need my help when I offer. That goes to when I even insisted that I help her, she still says no.
Now she turns around and say that she doesn't like people that sits around and do nothing!!
I have to admit that I have given up offering her my help because everytime i did she made me look stupid so i stopped. Maybe I shouldn't have stop.
It seems like I can never assume what she is thinking.
It led me to think that women are such a complicated animal. It is never a simple yes or no , it is always tied with some kind of term and condition.
No wonder we ourselves never seem to understand fully what we want.
From this incident it makes me think that women are cunning and manipulative so that they always get their way. Well at this point there may be female reader would want to object my views strongly.
But I must say sometimes I would think of ways to get what I want. Does this make me manipulative and cunning?
