Just two weeks ago, my friend came over to Melbourne for a short holiday because she was having her summer holidays (that stretches up to 3 months) and she didn't even have a job or internship to work for. So I randomly suggested her coming over to Melbourne to have fun with both R and I, and she really did went ahead to book her air tickets!
We had a hard time planning 'cos she came during the weekdays and we were all so busy with our assignments and schoolwork, plus the fact that we had to go to school for lectures and tutorials, so it's a little hard to get a really good itinerary or to even bring her to the suburbs.
She was here for a good 5 days and we had lots of fun even tho all we did was to stay in the city and nowhere else. Had tons of good food though! I think I put on a good 3 KG over her one week stay haha!
B stayed at R's place, which was really just a stone's throw from mine haha! So the morning she arrived, I popped by his place to bring them for breakfast near our school!
On the tram.
Yummy hot choc!
& since the cafe's so near our school, we brought her for a little school tour. & she was amazed by how big/grand/pretty our school was, as compared to hers. She totally sounded like a "sua ku" person who lived in a hole for a couple of years HAHA!
Toured around the city, and brought her to Docklands for some outlet shopping! Didn't take much pictures cos well, our hands were pretty full. We got hungry really fast (think it's all the walking teehee) and so had an early dinner!
Awesome Korean food that had me craving for their Kimchi Jiggae up till now! And just a week before this, I had it for my birthday dinner!
Went over to R's place to meet them again because my first and only lesson only starts at 515PM. IKR! What a timing ~
OFTD:
Burnt Orange Knit Top - Dotti
Shorts - Forever 21
Shoes - Forever 21
Bag - Forever New
Fleece Leggings (UBER COMFY) - Big W
I brought them to this Japanese place for their set lunch. Each set has like sashimi, chawanmushi, a main dish, rice, ice cream, tempura etc. SUPER good Japanese food, they have the BEST tempura I've even eaten (given that I don't like fried food thanks to the oily stench that they always come with).
Walked around the city and because the girl wants to pop by the Cathedral, we went in!
& then more roaming around~
HAHAHA. This photo never fails to crack me up. What an uncle he is lor!
Yarra River, no idea why it was so dirty that day!
OH & because I was craving for deserts, we had them at Laurent's! YUMMY!
So pretty looking!
Then I headed over for my ONE HOUR tute, back home to change and to meet them for dinner. IKR, my lunch and high-tea was even digested then.
While waiting for Gracey~
We had dinner at Docklands, at this steak place that R recommended because there was half price for steaks every Tuesday! AWESOME!
The kids insisted on paying for the meal to celebrate my belated birthday. HOW SWEET! :D
By the riverside ~
Then we headed to Roy's place (I forgot for what?) and guess what? The kids sprung a little surprise for me! :D Laurent's cake again! & they gave me a little hello kitty mirror and Versace moisturiser that I absolutely love!
It was lunch again the next day because I only had an one hour tute from 10-11AM. :P
This time round, we had it at this Korean-Japanese restaurant just below Roy's crib.
They gave REALLY HUGE servings! Roy ended up having to finish TWO because we girls could only manage half the serving.
Plans to the beach was cancelled because it was raining so heavily. Such a spoilsport. Was looking forward to the pastries that they were selling along the beach! :(
OTW there, this is our exam hall! Pretty grand isn't it!
Went for this 3D film that I happily snoozed in. HAHA~
Then we came across this exhibition, not sure if it's taxidermies of animals but they looked so real!
Roy had a meeting to go to, so we headed back home to rest and wait for him. Otw back, we chanced upon double rainbows again!! This time round it's so obvious and pretty!
HAd dinner at Mercadante again, it's like my 3rd time going there in 2 weeks!
BEST. RISOTTO. EVER. (Not sure if I've said this before).
CHOCOLATE PIZZA!! YUMMERS.
& our dinner the next day 'cause we both had long hours on Thursdays. So she roamed about the city herself and met us for dinner!
& deserts at Koko Black. Such a torture because my monthly thing decided to visit me and I can't have the iced chocolate! :<
Had this awful hazelnut chocolate but the hazelnut is too strong!
Mehhh~
Okay I shall stop abruptly here, it's too long a blogpost and I'm almost brain dead by now. Hope I didn't make you too hungry! ^^
