Good Friday

Celebrating Good Friday in Australia is really different from Malaysia. Actually only the Australian celebrate it while Malaysian dont, the only best thing is its a holiday, and thats all i really care about. I just realised Good Friday is really an important day in Australia where everything is closed even the the hypermarts like Coles and Woolies, unbelievable. >< This reminds me of the Australia Ecownomics i read, quote:"You have 2 cows. Business seems to be going good. You close up shop and go have 2 beers to celebrate." Seriously during this holiday period, everyone is free but everything is close.

Today KY and i went to William Ricketts Sanctuary in Mount Dandenong. The initial plan was to go Great Ocean Road, but i got bailed out. William Ricketts is rather far. We took 2 hours of bus, walk the park for 1 hour and waiting another hour for the bus with another 2 hour journey back. Saying that the trip was really worth it, i wont agree with it, but the park was rather nice. Then we went to Glen Waverly, which everything was CLOSE, except the eateries.

For dinner we went to have fish and chips at Flake Attack, and ice cream at Cold Rock during a rather cold night. The fish and chips were not too bad, just really really salty. The ice cream was just rather big. ><

Well, i guess its just the starting of the MSB, while most of my neighbours went back. But i guess ill be spending most of time studying. SIGH, sucky life, sucky course.
