A loonggg road to IKEA in HOMEBUSH

The night before I made dinner for the busy working ppl. My years of training in KULI-nary operations has mold out a CORDON BLUE chef in me LOL

Porterhouse steak with mushroom sauce...

See even kajie cannot resist the yummy sauce...

Drumrolls
The Chef

Well the next day we had important things to do to BE-EUUUUU-TIFY the house and settle some bank stuff
So we headed down to Chinatown to visit the bank.. Since we're in PRC town we decided to get some KALeiiiii YUDAN( curry fishball)

Curry fishball

Next destination was SUPA @ Kensington which is where IKEA and lots of other furniture stores are situated at.
But before that we stop at this THAI grocery shop..sawadeeeeka demak aloi peng mak LOL

All the ready made Thai meals like pad thai, keng kaew wan..just like those american microwave dinner

Lots of coulourful Thai dessert:
Pelbagai size , shape, colour just like choosing bra haha


Thai mooncake

At SUPA we stopped at Freedom furniture store then we camwhore abit!!

Woooo I like this swing too bad the balcony is not suitable to swing here swing there like tarzan if not can swing all the way to Melbourne!

"ACT natural"


This swing looks scary but I actually liked it, can make Thai horror movie
"The SWING"

So we walk and walk and walk to HOLAN then cannot find the damm IKEA so we went to the floor map and there was another lady looking at the map, both party looked confused then she asked us what are we looking for, we said I-KEEEEAHHHHH then she said "SO AM I"
Anyway we found out that it closed down and the only ONE in the whole of SYDNEY is in HOMEBUSH where on earth?????

Haih if we take train and bus and walk walk to HOMEBUSH we will end up in the BUSH picking for flies so we decided to take a CAB...
AND it took more than half and hour. It was definitely a RIDE to the bush, the driver drove like we had to go IKEA urgently....
The bill of the RIDE came out to be AUD 50+++ which even kajie said she has never took a cab which costs sooo much...sigh we die die want to make the best of it, buy every single shit from IKEA and home deliver it...

FINALLY we see IKEA like seeing Mt Kinabalu

We were hungry from the CAB RIDE, since we're in IKEA we eat SWEEEEDISHHHHH meatballs!!

We camwhored at IKEA
Kajie imagining this is her kitchen


So charming the chandelier too bad can't drill no holes in the apartment:(Anyway we camwhored inside of IKEA only to be told at the end when we checked in our stuff to home deliver that we're not allowed to take pictures on the property of IKEA what the...i'm taking pics of stuff I bought no longer YOUR property!!

Back at home some misfortune happened when KAJIE spilled spaghetti sauce all over the carpet

BEFORE

So we got down on our knees to start scrubbing and spraying like cinderella...

In the process

Powerpuff is dirty too!!!!
AFTER

CLEAN AND SPARKLING

Yeah yeah the internet is finally resurrected and life is greattttt now LOL
Woooo can surf the internet as free as a bird..but school is starting next week and tomorrow I'll be going for an overnight trip to Hunter Valley, the NAPA valley of sydney!

Life down under in Sydney

The day I arrived at Sydney, kajie & py came to roll a red carpet for me from the airport.
Walking out of the airport, I was greeted by a chilly light drizzle weather...felt like the usual december family holidays we take in taiwan, korea or china; walking out of the airport into winter....wooo like winter sonata haha

WAIT

Isn't it summer in Australia???? What happened to the scorching heat and bush fires you see on news and newspaper??? Summer is going away soon and I guess the sunshine god took pity of my already "natural tan" so the weather is really to my liking; sunny but not too hot, windy but not too cold till you have to put on tons of clothes like a dumpling.

Well kajie's apartment is at WOLLI CREEK very near the airport, a really nice place and is said WO-LIE creek.

Stepping into the apartment...surprise awaits me actually 2 surprises:

Number one is the apartment was in a total mess since they just moved in therefore no pics..

Number two is this huge cage with a grey ball of fur rolling around

Presenting to you BLUEY the BUNNY




He's about 2 months old, eats like a pig who's 2 yrs old shits like a dog and pees like running tap of dirty water.

Note to SYNYIN:

My sis wants him to grow as humongous as GIANT so please inform me the secrets to culturing a MUTANT size bunny LOL

I was really hungry from the longggg journey so kajie made Creamy Tom Yum Shrimp MAMA mee bought from PHUKET with boiled egg, and lots of different balls errr whatever



Ok now time for some pictures of the house after a whole day of cleaning basically we cleaned up the boxes bring stuff we don't want down to this cage in the carpark; each apartment owner will have their cage to store stuff..i'll post the cage picture later on but is big enough for another human to sleep and live there..so my dear friends if you're coming to visit, you can have the privilege to sleep there too:)
Once you enter into the apartment this is what you would see

tons of 9 西shoes and I only brought ONE of my collections over
Both kajie and py are crazeee fans of Nine West too:)

Laundry room

Kitchen



Living room with a orange and red sofa beds



Here comes the bedroom with a built in closet and bathroom.....

Bathroom attached to our room, so this is the sink in a shaped of a bowl. You can see the reflection of the bathtub behind

Bathtub for bubble bath but now is plainly for us to wash clothes

BUILT IN CLOSET with tons of kajie's clothes and pads and earrings makeups and sei hai po things hehe

Another view of the closet

So the house is still slowly coming up as the tv and dvd player needs a cabinet.. Maybe the balcony would look nicer later on since the surrounding is very nice to look at from the balcony..eherm peeping into other ppl's place to "cuci mata"

This is my first post hopefully later on I'll have more patience and creativity to post things I've been doing since day 1..afterall this is my 6th day in SYD...
