Good Daaaay, mate! IV

Day 5 (2/6/11) 

Mama and me strolled around the house area and visited the Monash Uni branch for education, economy plus bussiness faculties. Dekat sgt uni tu ngan Nana's house. Later, Sis Aliya took us to the shopping mall. Mama did some shopping, spent $100 sumthing on corelle (aka pinggan mangkuk laa tuh). Dasat tul but her money anyway, so no question asked. Hahaha. Even, I used her money as well. Baba said I was like a parasite, hahaha. Nak wat cmne, xder proper income. And I bought myself a new pair of shoes. Yeeee! Murah je, $10 sumthing, beli kt K-mart je pn (aka cam Mydin kt M'sia). 

After that, just before Maghrib time, Sis Aliya took us uphill to see the sunset. And Layth asked "Why does the sun go down into the ocean?", hehehe, how to explain that to 4 y/o kiddo. "-.-

Day 2 (30/5/11)


Melbourne Museum

Nana was off from his work. He took us around the Monash uni jap then, he brought us to Melbourne Museum. This was my second time. There wasn't any much change since my last visit except they were having a mummy of pharaoh for exhibition. Replica je pn, not a real one. But during the visit, I was semiconscious, sooooo sleeeepy cause I took flu med and Loratadine at the same time the night before. I sort of double-dosed myself with sleepy meds. I can even sleep while walking. Hahaha, padan muka. Igt ubat cam magic ke, makan sekali gus boleh terus sembuh...Camne laa nk jd doc. Here some pics there. Mostly were gone because of some technical issues with the card reader. Huhuhu.

All info about bugs and insects ade kat sini. Interesting!!!

I think the pic was about the insects live in the ground ke ape ntah...

Inside the ant colony!!!

Replica of animals

Tempat nie sal batu2 kristal rasenyeee...

Mini Jurassic Park!

Section ni sal human  body! Best sgt2!!!

The most interesting part for me, of course laa the human body. Because that was the part I understand the most compared to dinasours, bugs etc. One section was called 'Preparing For Puberty' or something like that laa. Kinda sensored. Various pics of human in different phases of life (phases like kids, teens, adult) pasted on the wall..........in full nudity. Hahaha. I didn't dare to take pics (mmg xleh pn!).

The other section was all about human mind. Sape nk jd psychologist/psychiatrist boleh laa dtg. Quite interesting. But this time, I didn't go into that part, since mama cam tired and I was fighting to stay conscious. We called it a day after finishing the human body section.

Day 3 (31/5/11)

Shopping kat bandar Frankston. Didn't buy much, window shopping je lebey. Beli prepaid sim. Tp entah camne sampai skang sim tu xleh top-up. Pelik. Nasib baik free jer sim tuh.

Day 4 (1/6/11)

Did nothing. Just stay at home. Both Nana and Sis Aliya went to work. I tried to ride on Sis Aliya's bicycle. Cam advance je basikal tuh, dah laaaaaa tiiinggi!!! Asl laaa sume mende tinggi2 kt cni...

Good Daaaay, mate! II

Day 1 (29/5/11)

The Air Asia flight to Melbourne was scheduled at 10.30 pm. Mama and I checked in at 6 sumthing pm. During the check in I spotted a familiar face. Sekali pandang cam kenal, dua kali pandang mcm xknal plak. But suddenly that guy startled and was staring hard at me. Saaah, mmg kenal! It turned out he was a USIM's sci tech guy, same batch lak tuh. Hahaha.

The eight-hours in-flight journey was okay. But kinda boring. Ye la, air asia. They don't give any entertainment unless you pay for them. Tp syukur laaa, nk naik MAS mahal kot.

Mama was overwhelmed by tiredness

We arrived at 8 am sumthing, got to go tru the immigration stuff and declare some food item we brought in together. Keropok ikan je pn, tp cuak gyle, takut2 immigration officer tu punggah beg nk check, mane la tau. Makanan tu plak sumbat between baju, mne xmalu klau kne punggah. Huhuhu. So, mama siap bce2 doa and sembur2 lg kat immgration officer. Hahaha. Kelakar, tgk2 the officer just x-rayed our luggages. Alhamdulillah, lepas.

We waited for like 15 mins for Nana and Sis Aliya to arrive. And then, they brought us to an Arabian restaurant for breakfast and shopped for Arabian sweets. Mama siap speaking Arab lagi ngan shopper tuh. Being at the restaurant and the sweet shop brings back all those memories my mother had when she was in Cairo. And I think baba should be here too, reminiscing those memoirs together with mama. Because I absolutely had no idea what she was talking about. hahaha.

Xtau pizza jenis ape

After filling up, Nana made a quick tour around the Melb City. We took some pics at Carlton Garden.

Far-sighted scene, hahaha

Mama wat posing ayu, hehehe

In the afternoon, Nana and Sis Aliya had prepared for a small bbq behind the house.We grilled chicken wings, sausage with weird flavours (for me laa), lamb and I think that's all. Although, it took us some time to get the fire/heat ready, we got it right at the end. And when I said 'we', it means Nana, Sis Aliya and mama. I helped them too.....by eating the food ;p.

Layth was inspecting the grilled sausages

Say 'Bismillah' everyone! Yum, yum yummy!

Well, that's all for now.

Good Daaaay, mate!

Alhamdulillah, Allah gives me 2nd opportunity to travel to the land of kangaroo again. Been here for 4 days already. Not doing much (eating too much ade la), just visiting area around the house and etc. Previously, Nana lived in Coburg, nearer to the Melb City but then he moved to Frankston, dekat sgt dgn beach!!, tp it takes almost an hour to get to the City. 

And now it's winter. Temperature is around 10 sumthing. Time noon okay laa kuar, xde la sejuk sgt tp time early morning and night, my fav spot is in front of the heater, huahuahua. The cold is bearable, cam constantly duduk dlm air-cond in lecture hall. 

I think it's kinda weird to see mama not doing anything. Klau kt rumah, if there's free time, she'll be mengemas, mengemas and mengemas. Tp rumah bersepah gk, thanks a lot to jejaka2 kt umah tuh (sy mungkin sepahkan skit2 kot, ha3). Mama is a neighbourly type too. Suka bertandang kat rumah2 jiran, but here, batang hidung jiran pn xnampak, apatah lg nk kenal. So, she's a bit disappointed about that. I bet those people are either too busy working or too old and sick to get out often.

Anyway, life will be incomplete without probs to test us. We're having some sort of camera probs. 

1) My cam has LCD prob. I opened it last week to get it fix tp okay lak time tu. So, xjd nk baiki. Smpi sini screen die blank balik, tp boleh amik gambar lg. But it feels like taking photos blindly, cam bangang je.

2) Mama's cam okay, tp when I checked the SD card, it has 128 MB of memory, PE KEJADAH NIE!!! SAPE TUKARR?? No wonder it gets full to quickly. Since the cam is an old version of Sony, so xdpt cari laa pengganti lain.

3) Nana's cam pn okay sgt2. So, we borrowed his cam and snapped photos sana-sini. When I got home, I attempted to transfer the pics into mama's lappy when suddenly the comp was jammed and the SD card coudn't be read. And that was  the end of it and the photos too. Fortunately, ade laa saki-baki photos snapped by my ipod.

I'll post some photos in my next post. Layth tetiba wat sudden appearance nyibuk kat sini.
