Checking the weather on a daily basis has never been a routine for me. Its basically sunny all year round in KL... maybe a few crazy thunderstorms and lots of rain is the most we would get. However, coming to Melbourne 6 months ago made me realize how important it is to READ THE WEATHER REPORT (or at least download a weather app [an accurate weather app]). You wake up in the morn, step out on the balcony to check the weather is absolutely useless. Because : 1) when you get out of your house and encounter the melbourne wind, the temperature WILL drop by a good 5degrees, 2) just because it looks sunny and beautiful, thats pure bullshit... your about to experience 4 seasons in one day... so please wear layers cuz youll be taking it out and putting it on the whole dam day. I also noticed how the weather seriously affects my mood. Im just NOT a winter person at all.. so when i first got here.. yea you could have guessed it was pretty gloomy... the wind, the rainy snowy thing, the dont-feel-like-doing-anything-emo thing. I was very much looking forward to September because... 01 September is the designated date for Spring to arrive.. So 01/09 passes, 08/09 passes.... and WTF its still so dam cold.. one fine day.. suddenly super hot... 20 plus degrees.. FINALLY spring?!?! erm no false alarm.. and were back into winter. Its been going on like that for the longest time. Now that its ENDING of Nov which means End of SPRING.. its finally getting hot.. at least for these 2 days its been quite burning.. So that means the weather conveniently forgot spring and jumped to summer.. and apparently fall and spring are not apparent in Melbourne. Not that i really love the cold weather.. but i guess with so much of the battling.. i will kinda miss the cold.... kinda. BUT ill be off to japan soon .. so.. Winter again. My stay in melbourne has been a very interesting one. I've got to experience all kinda things, make mistakes, learn and grow the fck up. I'll definitely miss this place... so much memories in such a short period. Im going to miss all the freedom in the world. Theres a good and bad side to this. The good side.. sure you dont have to be home any day any time regardless of tomorrows schedule.. you dont have anyone watching your back and telling you to go to school.. eventhough i did faithfully attend my classes.. Its bad because i think you lose yourself a bit here and there.. and you finally see how lonely you can be. You also see how shit this world is and how you've always been in your comfort bubble where all bad things bounces off that bubble. He he he.... and not forgetting Bubble, it self. he he he. With so much you can do with no eyes watching you, it sure is hard to balance assignment, exams and so on but i did well suprisngly...study hard..party harder ? haha Not to say Melbourne has lots of good food to eat. I do really miss KL food. But i gotta give it to some junk like GOLDEN GAYTIME , Chicken in a biskit, Nutty Crunch, Shapes and so much more.... i love them. I have never snacked so much in my entire life.. Because its so cold, you just wanna eat something every moment! Also even though i live in the city, food is not available 24hours like KL... and so because of our crazy nocturnal insomniac selves, we get hungry at odd hours like 3am and so on. This is when the snack monsters come out.. sigh. I guess we managed to get comfortable with a few restaurants that we go to regularly and i guess imma miss having certain cravings for food like GyuTanDon or Kebab or Pho noodles or Freddo's ice cream, or Ying Thai or EasyWay or Boost and etc.. Also having this lack of food supply has forced me to learn how to cook ... stuff. Lol. A good breakfast i can easily whip out now: Toast bread with Omelette, Bacon cheese or ham sandwich with hashbrowns on the side.. YUM! and my housemate and i have learned to cook random veg and meat and soup every now and then. We have 3 Basic sauce: 1) Sesame Oil 2) Dark Soy Sauce 3) Oyster sauce. So basically everything we eat are around that range.. hahaha.. We managed to cook quite good French Onion Soup and other food ventures which turned out successful. Im even going to miss the Nando's opposite my house. It has served me well... all the chicken i ate. hahaha. I know they have Nando's back home but something about the one opposite my house... the waiters are all to dam nice! and understanding when my mind is a little off. he he .. he. Im so going to miss my indoor pool with the see-through roof and awesome ass jacuzzi. Im going to miss my Mattress which i already sold off today! (Thx to GumTree!) Im going to miss the EXTREME TERMINATOR. :(((( Im going to miss going everywhere with the dam tram. Im going to miss my ciaotoots housemate :P Im going to miss everything i turned into a routine here in Melbourne. But i guess all good things come to an end. This is just another part of my life im about to close and move on. Phew. That was a super long post.. havent done that in awhile.. feels kinda good. :) ps. i wont miss their ridiculously expensive ciggs. Pps. My apartment unit : 2010, was definitely the place to be. |
