saturday 25th july,part a- hilary's boat harbour and icecream!awesome day out especially when you havent seen sun in a week. i guess you cant expect much out of winter, the rains come with it and so does the cold winds. as i had my day off from work, i took a 2 hour drive with rima, my ex-driving instructor (i've passed my driving assessment rmb? ) to hilary's boat harbour. boy, have i not been up north in ages!
i'm not sure how mum's reaction would be if i told her i had a $100 lesson because i wanted to drive out and not around thornlie area- i reckon it wont be good. i doubt no one can get away with 15-min driving around your area for a 25hour clock-in period. mum doesnt really drive around much and when she does, it's only to the nearby shops for groceries which ideally means i dont get enough experience on the roads! if i were to clock my required 25hour for my logbook- then i'll rather spend $1250 on driving lessons, but then again, it's easier done than said (that's if i had the lessons behind mum's back:D)
anyway, hilary's boat harbour was beautiful. no wonder they called it the 'rich man's hideaway'- as the name suggests, it's a place where boats are docked at the harbour and not just any kind of boats, yatchs (is that how you spell it bahh) if i were to plan a second trip there, it'll be for the icecream and the half priced bikinis and bathing suits! while we were there, we took a 20min tour around the harbour and rima treated me to a gorgeous cookies and cream icecream, gorgeous because even gelare doesnt even smash your icecream up with your choice of selected topping of which, i had to go with snickers;D who else would you have gone for? m n' ms were a good choice too:D
part b- tara's 20th birthday drinks @ carnegies till late night
great night out other than the fact i had to take public transport in the cold- grrr i cant wait to get my license. since my last booze, i cant rmb how much i could drink to be even sane enough to take the train and bus home so i only had one, 'better be safe!' haha ! it's tough always to open up to others whenever you're the only hot asian in the group:D then again, i didnt know anyone else there. i've only met tara once at bradley's 19th and she's an awesome brunette;D i was a lil disappointed i couldnt club that night though, i had on my party shoes:(but no ride home, no late night clubbing- that's the rule (and i dont wanna go wasting $25-30 for a taxi fare home, especially if im the only one in the cab with the driver).
ps: baby, i miss it when you'll sleep over at my place after we get home from clubbing- at least the taxi ride wasnt that boring:D (next time, stay till breakfast- you know i dont wake up till noon when im half tispy! HA! )
