Summer, Autumn, Winter..Spring

September 1, 2010

The first day of spring officially starts today. It started off great with dark skies and rain drops onto my window. It’s getting warmer by the day, the wind is getting stronger each day, flies begin to appear, and work load seems to be lesser right now.

I know I’ve been absent for a month. Ever since the semester had begun, I’ve been camping in the architecture building all day and night. Well, I’ve just submitted an assignment yesterday and that would be the last major assignment due till the end of my semester! It’s quite funny how the work load for this semester have been spread out..but oh well..I’ve endured through. Counting down to 8 more weeks till the end of the semester..and perhaps 3-4weeks of studying and going for exams! I need to book my flight home (: 

What was your best $10 you have ever spent on?

A Jaysjays top? A pair of shoes from Aldo during sales? A Hungry Jacks meal which includes a burger, a sundae cup, fries and drink? 10 packets of Kinder Bueno chocolates during a 99cents for one promotion? A movie ticket to watch Inception(well this could be a well spent $10! )?

Well, today I’ve discovered the best $10 I’ve ever spent on!

Guys..presenting to you all, Andrews Hamburgers! This is probably, I would say, the best burger I’ve ever tasted in my whole entire life! I know, I know. In your mind right now, most of you guys would say “Hey you haven’t try this other burger place before!” or “Are you sure it isn’t overated?”. It’s pretty much like a scene in ‘How I Met Your Mother’ series, where Marshall claimed to had the best burger in New York city, but he couldn’t remember where was the place. His friends didn’t believe him and hence, the search for the best burger in that particular series.

For $10, you’ll get to taste the best burger I have ever tasted! I ordered the ‘Steak Lot’, which has a piece of steak in the burger, along with bacon, egg, caramelised onions, and salad. I waited for 40 minutes to taste this beast, and the wait was worth it!

I don’t normally claim something to be really true without any evidence or proof. See the picture above? Those are the faces of ‘The best $10 I’ve ever spent!’

I mean seriously, most burgers I’ve ever tasted, they are good because of the combination of the sauces. The burgers in this place is really different! Meat lovers will seriously love this burger cause the taste comes from the meat itself.

Picture this – a marinated piece of steak being grilled to perfection. The steak has bits of fats which brings out the flavour of the entire piece of meat. Each bite, you’ll get a tiny resistance from the fats, which adds texture to the entire meal. A strip of bacon dressed at the top, sandwiched in between the piece of meat and a layer of caramelised onions. A perfect circle egg sits at the top of the entire kingdom, unifying the flavours all together. Below the piece of meat, you have thinly sliced cucumbers and grilled tomatoes which bring extra juices into each bite.

Honestly, words and pictures from me isn’t enough to justify how awesome this burger is. You guys have to try it for yourself. Take tram number 1, heading to South Beach from Flinders Station and stop at Tram Stop 28. It’s just right around the corner and you wont miss it!

Hello second term!

July 23, 2010

My second term in Melbourne University started today. I’m really so glad that classes will resume next week because time will just fly by when the semester starts. I really can’t wait to graduate end of this year and get back home to Malaysia!

Haha anyway here’s another shot from a photoshoot I did last week (:

Beauty of Sydney

July 13, 2010

 Hello (:

First of all, a big apologies to those who had email me to inquire about my packages for the late replies. I’ll work on those emails right away after this blog post. I was away in Sydney for holidays and I didn’t have my laptop with me. The only interaction I had with the online world was my phone!

My holidays have been great indeed! I honestly wish that I could post up all my photos in this blog and show it to you guys but I guess the only best option I have is to post it on my facebook page. When I first had a glimpse of the cityscape, I immediately fell in love with Sydney! Comparing Sydney against Melbourne, Sydney is a much older city. Unlike Melbourne, Sydney isn’t plan out in a grid system. The cityscape has lots of uphills and downhills and traffic congestion is probably similar to the traffic congestion in Kuala Lumpur. It took us an hour plus to get back home from Circular Quay to King Cross at 12am midnight! But of course I didn’t fell in love with Sydney for its traffic woes, I fell in love with the beauty of the streets, the buildings and the idea of the city being right beside the river.

What I don’t like about Sydney is that there are no trams for you to move about! Well there’re trams in China Town area but that’s the only known tram services to me. Aside from that, the people are kinda rude in the city. The bus driver was kinda rude to me when I entered the bus without validating my ticket. Coming from Melbourne where a ticket needs to be validated once, I thought it’s the same too in Sydney.

Anyway, enjoy these few series of pictures. Will post more in my next update!
