I’m writing to you from Melbourne airport.
We are stranded here for hours before returning, which means taking another flight to Sydney first before returning to Singapore. So just when I was going to write off Melbourne from my move-and-live-for-a-few-years list, we went out earlier today, and I got to see how it would feel to live there as a local. We walked around the city centre, from Swanson Street to Flinders street.
There were coffee shops, bottle shops, Asian supermarkets, pubs, and Chinatown. I always thought that it was my destiny to live near Chinatown. Also, I am in love with the Peri Peri sauce at Nando’s.
Also, $10 bookstore?! Yes, please. I even found my future apartment. I belong here, in Melbourne. All I need to do is adjust to the cold weather. I had a fantastic time with my cousins (riding Puffing Billy being one of the highlights), but I am always glad to return to my pink bed at the end of most trips.
Also, I miss Fafa!
It will be another week for me to see him, as he just started his Sydney trip today. Anyways, that’s that. It’s too early for me to think of what to write since I had only like 3 hours to sleep. So I will finish my McDonald’s bubble gum squash ice cream, served by a rude waitress who probably makes more money than I do.
