Back from Aussie

I'm back! Time sure flies... 20 days in Australia has gone by real fast... I'm now back in Singapore, facing reality again...

Life's good in Australia (minus the work)... It's quite something to see all shops closing at 530pm everyday... and it's really demoralizing to see the entire mall closed except for the supermarket - and it's only 7pm (5pm S'pore time!). We stayed in Yeppoon, a small town with ONE shopping street (that's the CBD). Luckily, the beach & seaview make up for everything =)

We have to endure 1.5 hrs per trip to travel from Yeppoon to the training area but i guess that beats staying in camp! =P The trip has made me seen so much... It's hard to put them all in words here... but well... to say the truth, I realised I'm such a city girl - I can't survive in the wilderness... I was so terrified of the buzz of the flies swarming around in the field that I could hear the "replay" even as I lie in bed that night!

Well... Ain't I glad to be home! =)

If you only see the darkness in front,
You'll miss the galaxy of stars in the sky above.
If you only feel the scorching rays,
You'll never appreciate the warmth of the sun.
