Tour

So the uni’s international office organised a one-day tour for us. We had to assemble at 8am and leave at 8.30. I think I fell aslep at about 5 something in the morning. When my alarm rang at 7am, I battled against my will to stay in my warm, cosy bed. After 3-4 snoozes, I finally got up, brushed up, grab whatever I laid eyes on, slip on my flip flops, and left.

It started to drizzle while I was on my way to the uni and I didnt have an umbrella with me. =\ Luckily I was wearing the hoodie Wendy bought for me. So I walked to the uni with my half my head covered my the attached hat(if I had a basketball, I would have looked like Lucas from OTH).

What a lousy day. First I did not have enough sleep and then it had to drizzle. But the rain stopped when I reached uni and at 8.10am, I was one of the earliest. I thought after I left Malaysia I did not have to take in the famous “malaysia timing” into account.

It was frigging windy too and I was wearing my flip flops! Was freezing my ass off waiting for the students and the stupid bus to arrive. Stood in the wind for a good half an hr. Stupid one. Then the weather decided to change and popped the sun out after we got into the bus.

We went to a wildlife park, a chocolate factory, the nougat(supposed to be pronounced as “nuga”, not “nugget”), a winery(I did not go down…napped in the bus instead) and a harbour which I cannot recall the name.

The next stupid thing which happened was it started to pour when we were half way touring the wildlife park. I was drenched while looking for a shelter. *sigh* It just wasnt my day. I was then stranded in a hut with some pythons and lizards for about 10 mins before the rain stopped(crazy one right) and the sun popped out again. But then it started to rain again for the rest of the day soon after.

Luckily I brought along with me a another piece of clothing(wont call it jacket cause it did not keep me warm at all) to change into. okay. Let me tell you what I was initially wearing. I was wearing a spaghetti-straps(wore this only because it was damn hot the previous days and the internet was down in the morning to couldnt check weather) underneath the hoodie and a pair of woolen pants with my flip flops.

Hrm… looks like a lot of words in this entry. SOrry arh. Its 4am. Brain refuses to shorten sentences with alternative words.

Anyway, the chocolate factory was cool although it was really small and simple compare to Willy Wonka’s. No oompa loompas too. Then it was the nougat factory. We got a sample each. It was really small too. Nothing much. I stayed in the bus and napped for half an hour while the rest toured and wine-tasted at the winery since I dont drink, at all. Some came back to the bus half drunk lol.

Finally, it was the harbour. IT WAS FREAKING WINDY I TELL YOU but it wasnt raining lah. I even took a video of the trees swaying. But I like the harbour. There was a mall there which we all grabbed a quick bite. Saw lots of gulls there. You know, the ones that go “mine, mine, mine, mine, mine” in Finding Nemo. Took a group picture, then went off. It was damn cold the whole day. More so to me cause I wore too little and also the flip flops.

Thats all! Pictures of myself below. Pictures of other things tomorrow.

Btw, I am currently listening to John Mayer’s Slow dancing in a burning room. Damn nice song. It doesnt have a decent mtv, so :

Email me if you want a copy. The proper one is much nicer
