Bad Weather

Wow a storm is really raging on here.. Pretty big by how it looks on the news, winds reaching 120km/h, trees falling everywhere, crushing cars, powers lines down, blackouts everywhere and sirens wailing all over the place every few minutes pass my place.. Earlier in the day I thought it was just another windy day but wow.. I can imagine how its like in the areas hit by hurricane Katrina now with the winds twice as fast.. Lucky there is no blackout out here and I'm not out late today.. haha

Tenology

Went for The Ten Tenors concert tonight. They are really GOOD.. They are highly entertaining and their voices are really good.. Wanted to go watch them when they went to Singapore but they cancelled, so really glad they came down to Adelaide. They are really versatile singers, singing a range of songs from opera to beach boys to queen. Now must go look for their cds in the library.. hehe.. Highly recommended if they ever go to Singapore!

Here is a picture of a typical winter scene in Adelaide as requested by Yiren.. This was hastily taken so pardon me. =)

Quotable Quote

I used to think that the brain was the most wonderful organ in my body. Then I realised what was telling me this.

Tragedy

Read about the young couple who died in Perth today.. Such horrific news.. And they live so near me in Singapore.. A young couple trying to carve their future in a new country killed just like that.. It's terrible how high the accident rate is in Australia, almost everyday I hear about people being killed on the roads. The newspaper even has a column keeping count of the number of people killed on the roads so far.. Madness..

Winter Wonderland

It's snowing in Victoria, why can't it snow in Adelaide?!

Happy National Day

Happy Birthday Singapore! haha we sent a video over to the NDP people for our 15 seconds of fame.. and apparently they only showed a small clip.. So go to the ndp website to see our video! haha.. This is also the first time in like 10 years where I havent attended the parade.. Hope they rebuild the national stadium to an olympic sized one then they can fit more people in.. On saturday we had a celebration in school for the Singapore association i think sponsored by the Singapore International Foundation. We cooked laksa, mee siam, etc.. Really miss the food.. haha.. it was quite fun on the whole and the turnout was better than I expected... other than that life has been pretty dull.. school everyday.. arghs
