For the beauty of Macedon!!

man, it's been a really long time since i did smth to this blog. i'm starting to lose the initial thrill of it already, although i did mention tt i still didnt know y i started it in the first place...

anyway, back to the topic of Macedon. i left the huzz and buzz of city life to the secluded suburbs of Macedon. it was a truly gorgeuos and beautiful place man. the people are so darn friendly it's so scary. but come to think of it, they hardly meet other ppl cos they're so secluded. but customer service there is first class. my parents came down for a short break (they really lov me SO MUCH!!!...awww~!) so we decided to go for scenery this time. we stayed in a two room bungalow on TEN ACRES of land!~! how cool is tt?
had all this land to myself. there was just so much space. was exactly wat i needed after nearly suffering a burnout thanks to dance, work and assignments!


this was on a mountain trail called the "Hanging Stone"! beautiful day, beautiful skies, but was quite a walk though. it was jus so calming man. no noise. jus me and nature. sigh, no way i can get it in melb nor sg!!!


err, it's open to artistic interpretation...so wateva makes u happy, yea?


yea yea, i noe i love to pose. but my dad encouraged me too...


heh heh, another one. in the words of the DEAD POETS-
"I CLIMB THE MOUNTAIN TOPS AND SOUND MY BARBARIC YAWP!!!!!"


here i am playing with my neighbour's bitch (literally)...hahhaa, the dog jus wandered over and kept expecting to be stroked. wanted to be alone on the fields with my ipod blasting, but the dog made the experience so much more worth while.


this is a war memorial at the top of Mt Macedon. apparently a great WWII battle was fought here (which sorta reminds me of my history/army days). was a chilly afternoon, cant believe the sun actually came out once i left the area. would have been a beautiful picture with the sun.


had the most beautiful lunch/meal in my life (no exaggeration) at this place called braeside cafe up on Mt Macedon (above). Owned by a 'retired couple'. husband used to pilot for SIA in the 80s. they own a really gorgeous english-styled cottage which they turned into a restuarant with endless garden space. there were ducks, crows, parakeets, parrots in the garden, and kangaroos across the fence. how cool is tt? felt at ease and peaceful at tt restaurant. talked to the owners for a while, even talked to the other customers. one of them noes the owner of correttos...hahaha, the next-door rival of papa ginos. wat a small world. oh, m i an exact replica of dad? millions of ppl have been telling me so...sheesh. ahha

oh, i did realise tt i have been using the word "beautiful" a lot during the whole trip, even in this blog too. heh heh. too much conversations with aussies and italians at work. even after a meal, i'd tell the owner tt it was a gorgeous and beautiful meal, jus like how the aussie customers would tell me the same at papa ginos. hahaha. well, been well recharged from the trip. thanks mom and dad. appreciate it lots. i know there were deeper reasons why u came down, not jus wanting to take a short break for urselves. u nv mentioned it, but i know it...so thanks!!! but now, it's back to reality and with a week of hols left, there's a lot to been done. be it work, dance, squash and the much dreaded....revision. so well, i'll leave it here for the time being....cya round guys.

a fully recharged,
