Okay.. in a way I am looking forward to my long holiday at Melbourne. Why Melbourne AGAIN is because Kevin bought a couple of Commonwealth Games fixtures tickets (Table Tennis and Badminton). And so... we are counting down the days to return back to a very memorable place for us.
It's gng to be exciting, there'll be a cultural festival in conjunction with the Commonwealth Games, day trips to the mountains, shopping, dining and more SHOPPING! Not to mention the magnificant Crown Casino awaits us too. Only pity is that most of my Melbourne pals are back in SG. Kevin's friends are still around but I guess it's a little different since I never really hanged with them. But there are still some people left and I really hope to meet them again.
Anyway, we have done up our itinery for the trip. We have allocated certain days just for shopping and this time.... i am gng to get something from Greville Street. I must and I will! Of coz we will be dining at our favourite restaurants and cafes, mmmmm, lygon st's gelato, st kilda cakes.... etc etc etc. We will be heading back to Olinda for a couple nights stay and to visit the parks and enjoy the pies and devonshire tea with scones.
While I look forward to my long holiday, I am not looking forward to the amount of work that awaits me when I return to the office. Just immediately the next day after I touch down, I have 4 days of meetings with several agencies, a website to work on, and a conference in April (guess where, Melbourne!) I dread it really. But too bad, I took my leave long ago, and no way is my boss making me cancel that, unless he reimburse my airfare.
For the time being.. i shall spend lesser, eat lesser and work harder.
