7 going to 8

Hmmm... we're on our 8th month since arriving in Sydney. Time flies... we have sort of settled down now - getting on with work and life here. It has been relatively easy going and i think we are more sane now. Found time to do so many things that we always wanted to do in KL but never had the time. Everything is so calm and serene here.... it is both good and bad.... good because I have time for self-indulgence (hahaha!!!)... bad because I risk being "fatt mou" (oxford chinese dictionary=grow green fungus) in the midst of this slow paced life!! I really miss the adrenaline in KL... the smoky air, traffic jam, rush hour, pasar malam, roti canai, roti pisang, glorious durians, KLCC, Mid Valley, 1 Utama... sigh!!! But then again, i have discovered so much here in Sydney. It is a beautiful city (but i still think Melbourne is the best for its character as a city) with lovely bays and beaches.. both the Opera House and the Harbour bridge are what i call "optical illusions" - perfect from a distance but not so when near. Shopping is not too bad but i still cannot tahan the fashion here... i just cannot bring myself to wear both skinny tights and skirt at the same time! And my goodness, the shoes here are so ugly and expensive! Thank God i shipped all my shoes here!! hahaha... When i get to KL, i know exactly what to do... I'll be back before you know it! :)
