Hello from Brisbane

Maybe I should be saying G'day...like the aussies do. We arrived yesterday at 6.40am after a 7 hour flight from Singapore. The flight was pleasant and uneventful. Not many people coughing or sneezing ,no babies crying or kids running about so I didnt bother to use the mask. Didnt want to look like Zorro. Even in the airport at Changi no one was using a mask. Guess the H1N1 is now considered just a flu!

It was a long flight for me cos I couldnt fall asleep no matter what position I took. The man beside me was snoring away. Felt like giving him a mask to lower the snoring noise level! Watch 2 movies and so arrived in Brisbane like a zombie. Had to check out through the red lane cos I had fried onions to declare...yes!...fried onions for Jordan. It is his favourite and he says cant get small onions in Brisbane . Well apart from orang utans now you know we have small onions which Brisbane doesnt have. Do you think we should put this in the tourist brochure?

Anyway, 2 zombies arrived at Morgan's place at about 8am to be greeted by no one as both the sleeping beauties were still in bed. We were tired but going to sleep would be a big mistake so 2 zombies went out. Hey! This would make a good title for a movies...' malaysian zombies in brisbane ' ....hahah.

We expected the apartment to be untidy but didnt expect it to look like a tropical storm had just blown through the place. Could see the legs of the table but wasnt sure if it was the dinning table or stall at mile 4 market selling food ! Walked into Jordan's room ...well at least I thought it was his room , maybe it was the store room....no, it was his room. OMG.....it you are one of Jordan's friend reading this and laughing, well look around your room , I am sure I have just described your room too huh?

Well the rest of the house was just the same......so we went out shopping, the scene was not beneficial to our tired eyes....out of sight out of mind. had a nice sushi dinner in the city and went back to have our apple pie. First day and already my belly is begining to look like an aussie tummy. Must say that I feel so slim here. everyone is so plump ( actually i would say fat but so rude lah! ) Really even young girls are plump. Must be all the fast food they shaft into their mouths a mile a minute! The right word is 'obese'.....anyway, like I said, if you want to feel like a super model even if you have a waistline of 31" and above come to Australia ! ....hahaha

ok. gtg. Jordan wants to use his computer, till tomorrow.......
