Brisbane!! Here am I...

Just came back from Brisbane, finally decided to settle down and blog something. As you guys know I went Brisbane for MASCA(some sports carnival for Malaysian students studying in Australia in Malay is Karnival Sukan Pelajar Luar Negara-Dodgy). This trip taught me lots thing and met lots of new people. I finally felt that I am really doing something good and great in Australia.

We were late for flight due to unexpected traffic jam, I overslept by a bit, some were PACKING THEIR LUGGAGES at the very last minutes. We made it just before 15minutes before the flight board. The flight took one and half hour to reach Brisbane. We don't really have anything for the first day, only those introductory, carreer talks, general briefing. I just remember the moment we reached King's College(one of the on campus in University of Queensland whiere we were accomodated), four of us are hunting for food.

By the way, Brisbane has very nice view and weather. I just love the weather. I can feel the heat of the sun, and sweat!! The place is totally like KL. The road, the houses, you can barely even see ang moh here..... And to get to the city you need to pop up into a ferry but I never got the chance to do so, too packed my schedule. Brisbane is EXACTLY like Malaysia. At night we had welcome BBQ, what's impressed me is the Uni of Queensland(UQ) itself. Very beautiful buildings, environments(more trees), I would love to study here more than ANU.

I actually consider the BBQ as pinic-ing as we sat on the plastic mat on the grass....

Events start on second day. Morning I had track and field 200m and 4x100m. Won silver for 200m but lost in relay. Lost in relay and got injured as well. I was like shit, I got badminton in an hour time. I can't even walk properly. I can only play the first match for badminton and forfeit my single to reserve my energy for women doubles. But I lost that as well due to my eager-ness to win. =(


Warming up... GO GALS!! (we were late cause took too long time to have breakfast..ended up kena marah from our coach---->the one sitting, Chia Pei)

The track and field events girls........ Hazel, Sher Reen, Amanda, Winnie, Jessw

After the victory of 200m....Yong sui~~

But I got to know lots of friend during the games, I actually got to know this cute guy also. Everyone thought I was in love with him. I was just admiring his good looking-ness and his humble-ness....Very good guy but no longer available. Probably if he is available I might proceed from where I am...haha.

My friend has events on the third day but not me, so I am just there to cheer for them and forgone the chance of going city. I am just too kind. Haha. Events for the day ended very late and all of us were late for the masquerade ball.

Supporting frisbee team....They won silver!!! Yayyyy..... Those in blue are from other state.... Malaysiaan are united....

Everyone rush back to the college to get ready. Girls who need to make up and everything actually took shorter time to get ready compared to guys. Don't know why are them so fussy. But I was very tired to actually attend the ball, and I have to rush everything. I don't like things go in this way. We had three course meal as our dinner and the food is errr...Speechless..... I will never like high class restaurant... I felt super FULL after I had all these.

Food served alternatively... So people beside you will get different food than urs.

The worst day is the last day when we are ready to go back to Canberra. Sher and me thought if we woke up early we might can dropped by city for awhile before fly to Sydney but we actually wasted our time waiting for all the guys to pack up. Then our flight delayed cause there is something wrong with the engine according to the pilot, but I actually saw the crew loading luggages onto the plane. JETSTAR what can I say.... Flight delayed for about an hour and we missed our bus to Canberra from Sydney. We bought new ticket and rush for the bus. Everyone was torn out.
