HEY EVERYBODY!
okay, the drive down to Brisbane wasn't so bad. stopped at maccas on the way at Gympie. Tho we had to tolerate heaps of 'bob the builder' and 'thomas the tank engine' stories on the way. Then we finally reached Brisbane and we went to Uncle Chong Eng's house to stay for the night. they were away on holiday but Fern was there looking after the property so we stayed up for a bit to catch up and went to sleep at a rather late hour. I was really tired. haha. And i didn't sleep with a blanket so i woke up with goosebumps all over. hahha. Anyway, we woke up, had breakfast and went to the airport. We arrived at the airport early so we decided to eat breakfast. SUBWAY<33 hahah. yea, it was pretty good. Anws, we decided to go and check in after a visit to the "Times" bookshop. The queue was TREMENDOUSLY long. lol. it must have taken them like..2 1/2 hours to check everyone in. Anws, we were in the queue for 1 1/2 hours. Halfway through, Daddy decided to get back to Bundy. Anws, by the time we finished checking in, it was already 12 and the plane was due to leave at 12:40 so after some last minute stuff, we rushed to the gate and boarded the plane.
Etihad Airlines is probably the BEST plane i've ever been on. haha. It's sooo comfortable and the tv screens are TOUCH SCREENS. how cool can! haha. anws, i had heeeeaps of time to play with those later on. I watched 3 movies in a row and played some rounds of "Who wants to be a Milliionaire" haha. Yea, that was pretty fun. I watched Stardust, Rush Hour 3 and Gameplan. All wonderful wonderful movies. hahhaa. Anws, i couldn't squeeze in Ratatouille coz the plane was going to land.
We landed and we had to wait for AGESSS to get our luggage. Probably coz it was a huuuge plane and it was like..fully booked. haha. So yea. But we finally got it all together and followed Popo and Mas to my Aunt's place. We had a great dinner and i went back to my grandmother's place to sleep with Gabrielle.
Today, we went to church and the service was usually at 8:30 but i found out that they changed it to 9. Then when Pastor Jimmy came, he told us that it was a combined service today coz some special people were coming from TCC to perform. So it actually starts at 10. lol. and to think we were there since like..8:22. hahha. So we decided to go home and go back to church on the day that we leave for Brisbane which is the 13th. Anws, then me, my mum and my grandmother (three generations. woot.) went on a MASSIVE shopping trip. hahhaa. and i was soo happy i managed to get some heels for like..dinners and closed in shoes for my performances. so yea, i was really happy about that. We're still debating whether or not i should get an ipod or a creative zen. but oh wells, more time for that later. We also managed to get a portable dvd player so that was pretty good. and yea, we had lunch at crystal jade! so that was pretty good. lol. all in all, it was a hell of a good shopping trip and i really enjoyed it. haha.
I'm still looking for a mini dress but time will come for that. I have to go and take a passport foto today so i still have to remember to do that. sighss...hahha. maybe i'll walk around coro for a while too. just to refresh my memory. hahah. Well, it's been a really enjoyable day and i really liked it. haha. will be having a swimming and dinner outing tonight with louise and family so i'm really excited about that too! haha. well, hopefully there'll be more great days like this one to come!!
