Road Trip to Newcastle!!Goodbye Melbourne...We drove to Wangaretta and met Pascal for dinner at the Indian Tandoori Restaurant. The chefs are local cricket celebrities. We had fascinating discussions about Trinidadian politics over good North Indian food.Then we drove some more and spent the night in Tarcutta. We didn't plan to stop there, but it was 1am, it was a town and there was a Motor Inn

New Year's Eve was a quiet affair for me. Had dinner at a Greek restaurant. Allan had to work that night.Just in time for the fireworks, Allan and I met up, had a quick drink, and then turned in for the new year.

Went with Ruba for a sari fitting. The seamstress was soooo difficult. The sari was meant for pick up that day, but some stuff needed alteration and both the sewing machines were broken! Who ever heard of a seamstress without a working sewing machine?We cheered ourselves up by watching Four Holidays later with Mandy.

Dracula's RestaurantDracula's is one of those restaurants where there is a performance while you eat. This one was goth-inspired. We were a little late so we missed the haunted house ride.

Hadn't seen my friends for awhile, so thought I'd do a Decorating Party too. It was crazy hard work to prepare for, but luckily I had lots of help:The guests decorated...I did a lot of sweating in the kitchen, coming out with JUST enough food for everyone.The boys helped me.Eggnog, sweeet...Jane made mulled wine- yummm...I'm happy because of the Christmas music I got from Allan.End result..

WickedBased on Gregory Maguire's novel, Wicked explores the early life of the witches of Oz: Glinda and Elphaba. It's a refreshingly different take on the story, and funny too! They served cocktail drinks with green glowing lights at the bottom. Allan was surprised they didn't have a minute of silence for the actor who used to play the wizard. He passed away suddenly, only a few weeks ago.

Sigh. I love white rabbit candy. They're kind bad for you though. They have been contaminated by melamine, which can cause renal failure. Just last month, more than 52,000 cases of children were reportedly made sick by melamine-tainted dairy products in China. Australia issued a recall. Singapore did too, but noted that although the level of melamine was high in the candy, it did not pose

I got a job offer in Newcastle, which is 1.5hours north of Sydney. It's considered a country town, but it's by the beautiful seaside so people living there are surfers, and tourists actually go there to holiday.

Because we had gone there during the off season, the main restaurant at our resort was shut. Instead of the lovely breakfast we thought we had paid for, we got a very basic continental buffet. We spent the rest of the day in the spa. I have never been one to enjoy spas, but wow- I think I've started. You feel so good, you CAN'T think of anything bad, you CAN'T worry. It's just the warm water

At the entrance of the resort, they force you to put chains over your tires (to prevent slippage). We parked at the bottom and took a minivan up. Another couple brought their tiny baby along.

Grace hits Las Vegas! Oh the sinfulness of it all! We stayed at the Luxor Hotel, which is a huge modern day 30-story pyramid. Having seen the ACTUAL ancient pyramids, I wasn't much impressed. Instead of traditional vertical-going elevators, there were inclinators located in each corner of the pyramid that brought us to our rooms at a 39-degree angle. Odd sensation when you're standing IN

After the luau, we went with a French couple to a restuarant by the sea called Cheeseburger Paradise. I think the story behind it is that 2 Australian girls went to Hawaii and couldn't find good cheeseburgers and they thought, "How difficult would it be to make cheeseburgers?!" and so started a franchise...A competing restaurant further down the walk was called "Bubba's" after the restaurant

Woke up in the morning and the Number One thing on our To Do list? Check out the Pacific Ocean!I am so pathetically fragile - less than 20 minutes in the water and I was getting all sorts of cuts and bruises...Then we left the resort to move closer to the touristy part of the island- Laihana town.It had a Chinese Temple!I am a total foodie. And as I always say, "Gotta go where the locals go.." I

It was too late to join a luau, so we took a walk our first walk along Maui, accompanied by the sunset.I wanted to eat local food and the bellboy recommended a CHINESE Restaurant (Chinabowl Maui). I got a lot of grief about that... "How can you come all the way to Honolulu to eat Chinese food?!" But, hey! I eat what the locals eat!Where they had special prawn dishes.Where I tried KUNG PAO

Maui was fabulous in a totally tropical island sort of way. We arrived there in our little Island Air charter plane.The airport was TINY. Amongst the group of like 15 of us, one younger man started swearing and cursing and kicking up a big fuss because one of his luggage bags was lost. I couldn't imagine where it could have gotten lost TO. His girlfriend/wife was toting Chanel, so I suppose

Hawaii!! Say it like I do: Huh- why- EE!!... and jiggle your bottom after each syllable!Getting there was the biggest production ever! I had worked a bunch of night shifts, too weary to pack or plan, ran home to throw some things in a suitcase and then rushed out to catch the flight.Get this: we leave Melbourne at like 9am.

Everyone has been asking me about my plans for the future...I think I ought to head off to Germany. I never wanted to go Germany before. I don't really know any German doctors personally. I don't know any of the German language. Heck, I don't even LIKE German food. But I know a hottie Austrian one who knows German and speaks English with Arnold Schwarzenegger's accent. We're always annoying him

Allan celebrated his 1st full year of being in Australia. I hadn't cared because I didn't know him then, but he had mentioned it a few days before that he wanted a jam donut with candles.So we went to a restaurant and then he started complaining about how I never make a big deal of anything important and I never listen to him like when he asks for scarves and donuts and yada yada yada so then I

Other random bits of Sydney- sushi trains. I'm sure we have them in Melbourne... I just haven't been to one in ages.We did touristy things like go to the Australian Museum which has interesting exhibits: skeletons and gemstones and bits of meteors. I used to love all kinds of science-y stuff like this.We also went to The Art Gallery of New South Wales. By then, my dad was tired and so we only

Next stop: Sydney. We stayed at the Travelodge which was great because of its location- walking distance of everywhere.I HAD to bring my dad to see the Sydney Harbour Bridge of course. And the Opera House.And I met up with Lee Si! She's one of my secondary school best friends. We hadn't seen each other for over 8 years! We had a good long chat and I only wish we could do it more often... And

Back in Melbourne, Eunice, James, Kaz and I went for an impromptu dinner on Lygon St. The waiter was too friendly- pinched Eunice's cheek and she nearly threw a plate at him. Then we went to see Daniela and Ying perform salsa, but the show STARTED at midnight, so I couldn't stay.. They looked so glammed up though!

My dad came over to visit Ronny and I in Australia. He had never been to the other cities in Australia, so I managed to do some travelling with him. First stop: BACK to Adelaide- Karen and Liyan didn't even get a chance to miss me!.This time, I really managed to catch up with Jane.Jane is one of those rare people that everyone can get along with easily. I love her to bits, and so did my dad! And

Hindu weddings are great. I don't know if ALL of them are great because I have very limited experience with them, but from what I can see, it's really colourful and noisy and festive and not at all solemn and there are old uncles and aunties who make everything so cute.Timing is really important, because the time was chosen for the marriage to be auspicious. Jaya told me that Indians are famous

Since starting work, it's been very rare having the whole gang together. So it was great that we were all in Adelaide, all able to have dinner together. We had just come from the Glenelg beach gathering...We went to a Thai restaurant, but the menu offered springrolls from Vietnam and satay from Malaysia, and usually I am pretty suspicious of those places that don't really specialise in anything..

All I do is work nowadays... so it was a welcome hassle to take time off and zip to Adelaide for a friend's wedding. And being ever-so-efficient, I made sure to catch up with a few other dear friends as well. They had to work during the day, so Tom and Ruba and I went wine tasting!Adelaide is a famous wine region. I don't know anything about wines myself, because I don't drink much. But I learnt

I don't get it in Australia though because the Australian made one doesn't taste the same. The last one I had was made by my dad last month when I was back in Singapore. Mmmmmm!!

Happy Valentine's Day!This year, I got chocolates and a flower and went for a nice dinner. Quite different from last year, when I was working late to finish up a Surgical Audit presentation and went to grab some Thai food in between.. I can't believe I spent TWO Valentines' Days in Shepparton. *shudder* Hope this doesn't become a pattern in the following years!

Paschal brought a cookbook for me all the way from Trinidad & Tobago!It's a famous cookbook, and you can order it online and get it shipped at a cost of $120 from Canada. But it's really cheap when you buy it from the country of origin. And besides, you know how I feel about authencity...Anyway, I got it in my head that I wanna make roti prata. Turns out there are two ways of making it: 1)

It's my birthday!!!!This is my birthday breakfast, at someplace similar to Pancake Parlour in Melbourne.Allan rented a convertible on impulse, but I'm glad we got it. It was so cool! It had a hard top and it was like a transformer, just folds in on itself with a push of a button..We went to Warner Bros Movie World. Even though we got there really late, we had time for most of the major rides,

So I woke up to a morning, all quiet and rose tinted, but the air so crisp and cool...This is the tallest lookout tower in Surfer's Paradise. To my disappointment, I found out too late that there is a Sunday breakfast buffet at the restaurant at the top!Before the families come and make noise..I don't usually gamble, but the place was giving "free credit" to play the slot machines. you never know

We went to the new hip area to eat: Dempsey Hill at a joint called La Fondue.The food was different to what I usually have: entirely made up of fondues, in different dinner sets. You get to choose which set and everyone at the table shares. The first course was a cheese

I use my inflight time to watch movies that I don't usually watch.. and they're usually the foreign films. The one below is French.It's about a rich man whose wife doesn't sleep with him anymore so he confiscated her credit card. Although that sounds so gross, she was a real superficial witch who only liked to spend his money.Then I watched Secret, with Jay Chou.The movie was so silly I don't

Sorta like the art building in Singapore, when first built, people hated it. The architecture overshadowed the art it contained, people said. Shrug.Once again, I'm baffled by contemporary modern art.(

This is my phone, the Nokia 8800.It's VERY pretty, BUT -it's very heavy-the battery power is lousy-key number 7 doesn't work-sometimes people don't hear me-it keeps saying I have a missed call when I don't.I brought it to the Nokia Care centre today, expecting to be turned away unless I had recipts, or money to pay for the repairs, long delays, etc etc.To my utter surprise, the lady informed me

One of the first few sun-shiny days of Melbourne!! So we went to St Kilda, walked around the markets, ate some food. People were drinking beer for breakfast!

OutbreakFantastic medical party. Had so much fun.Met up with so many old friends, made so many new ones. It was like a clubbing night except even the sleaziest person had a job. Heheh. And you know how I always lament there are no good looking doctors in real life?Well, me and Ruba aside, there are one or two exceptions that make the rule.One's married and the other one lives in Tasmania. Darn it.

Cirque de SoleilNiruben got us some really good seats and it turned out to be a great night. These are the people I live and work with: After that we went clubbing at Eve, to celebrate Monica's birthday.

Ash's birthday. She cooked for a few of us, heaps and heaps of pasta. She gets a bunch of different types of cakes every year because she is so popular and everyone "surprises" her.Then we had a girls' night out belting out old songs. I am a REALLY bad singer...

It was a strange night. Went out for dinner with Ash and a gang of Jarron's friends. (The baker, the butcher and the candle stick maker). The baker told me he had a really huge wife. He showed me a picture of this small petite Malaysian girl and I launched into a tirade about how people like him force females to measure their worth by their lack of weight....and then he showed me a picture of

Took a break from work to celebrate Chinese New Year. We had yum cha at the Sun Yat Sen restaurant. For dinner, we went to Oriental Spoon. There's a huge Chinese population in Melbourne so there was no lack of festivities. Even a lion dance! Only no hongbao.... Sigh

Angus and Han's housewarming party!!Their place is sooo nice... The boys have their own WALK-IN closet. And we played poker Texas Hold 'Em style! That's what life's about. Take-home pizza, booze all around and gambling everything away. heeheeThanks for the great night...

We went to the conservatory to watch an Chinese acapella group from U Penn. I thought they were great. I even bought my mom one of their cd's.We tried out funky queer bars... beautiful rich restaurants... We clubbed with the movie stars, partied with the famous... (I don't really know who they are but they're nice and VERY good looking!)Yea.. Shanghai was fun...(I didn't take that many pictures..

I loved Shanghai the minute we stepped out of the airport. It was warmer than Beijing for one thing..The kind of place where the buildings are lit up in neon outlines..Everything is tinged with decadence..Where Shanghai dumplings are the size of my head....and gingerbread men are bigger than me!!

We separated with sadness.. Xin and Sarah were heading south while Ruba and I were heading to Shanghai.We stopped at the Chinese Museum of Art. This is a Chinese ant family. I thought it was weird.And this is Chinese writing. I remember a short film of ice melting in a cup. Very.. enthralling...I guess I've just never been taught to appreciate modern art.

The last night of 2006 and we were spending it in Beijing!!As we were leaving the hotel, I saw a bunch of girls dancing in a shop. I didn't get it, but it was funny, so I took a picture.We wandered around clubs looking for a suitable place to usher in the new year. We found places like this:I dared Ruba to go say hi to the dog.We got a few preliminary drinks at a bar.There were 5 of us, which is

The Summer Palace or Yiheyuan The Summer Palace is mainly dominated by Longevity Hill. Three quarters of the place is made up of water, Kunming Lake. It had frozen over, so here we are, having snowball fights again.Royalty came here to elude the insufferable summer heat that roasted the Forbidden City. The Summer Palace with its cool features - water, gardens and hills - was the palace of

When we awoke... we found that Beijing was covered in a light blanket of snow!It was magical, in a very cold, slushy grey sort of way...Went to Yonghe Gong, or, "The Palace of Peace and Harmony Lama Temple"Built in 1694, it was originally to house the court eunuchs of the Ming dynasty. After 1723, half of it became the palace of Prince Yongzheng and the other half became a monastary (=lamasery)

The Temple of Heaven (Tiantan) In ancient days, the Emperor or "Son of Heaven" administered earthly matters on behalf of, and representing, heavenly authority. It was extremely important for him to be seen showing respect to the source of his authority, in the form of sacrifices to heaven. The temple was built for these ceremonies.Each winter solstice the Emperor and all his retinue would move

I thought the day before was cold, but I knew that the climb to The Great Wall of China would be worse. So I rugged up. Like, REALLY rugged up. Thank the dear Lord for Qiyue and her thick winter wear.We climbed through the woods.Passed a Stone Museum on the way. This stone exhibit is a stone camel. Do you see it?We climbed through creepy caves. I think there is usually running springs

CHINAI return to my roots..First stop: Breakfast at McDonald's. Can you believe it?They had taro pie and its purple inside!!It was really cold in Beijing. The very next thing we did was buy gloves and warm stuff like that. It was a nice stroll. We saw a few guards, wearing the coats. Johnny said that the reason why Mao wore those green military coats were because they were the cheapest to

This trip to Malaysia was to meet the relatives. It was weird because I don't know them very well. Before, meeting relatives were like, "ok, the kids have their own table while the grown-ups sit apart to talk". This time, maybe because I graduated (?) suddenly, I found myself amongst the grown-ups. Suddenly, Dad was talking about "who will manage the plantations...who will organise the harvest"-

Yuck, pretty awful day. I woke up after only a couple hours of sleep and rushed to Suvarnabhumi Airport. It looks super high-tech and its going to have great shops, but it doesn't really feel comfortable.I was cold and had to wait and wait and wait and my phone battery wasn't charged so I wasn't even sure if anyone in KL knew I was coming. It's nearly impossible to track down a public phone these

Friday in Bangkok. We went to Wat Pho which has the really long Buddha.Then we tuktuk-ed to Khaosan Rd for a fix of pad thai and roti. We spent ages browsing in a book shop and I rediscovered my love of books (The Secret History- Donna Tate). The flame dimmed in the last few semesters of med school..Later that night, we went out! I insisted on dining at a fantastic restaurant in Suan Loom Night

Back in Bangkok.. Met up with my ex-colleagues from the Welcome Unit. It was so good to see everyone. People still the same, yet different. More wandering around Bangkok. We took the BTS.Then the ferry, which P'Nhum had NEVER done before.Chinatown was suffocating, but still pretty cool. It's got TINY TINY lanes which are packed full of wholesale shops, so you can buy necklaces really cheaply, if
