Video: Apple Picking and Botanic Garden

Just posting a video that I made from some shoots from the apple orchard and blue mountain botanic garden. i made this video a while back and posted it on my YouTube account. I was too lazy to post the video on my blog at that time. now I am posting it as an accompanying video. ^_^

NSW: Apple Picking 2014

One of the popular weekend activity in Australia is Fruit Picking. Different fruit for every month or season. In May, Apple is the popular one. Since I just arrived here this year (2014), why not experience it right? Hence, our decision to join the trend and schedule a trip to one of the apple orchards here in NSW. <the month of May is the end of Fall/Autumn season here> ^_^ 

After picking some apples, we decided to go to the Blue Mountain Botanic Garden since its just a short drive from the orchard. We had our picnic over there and saw the pretty colours for Fall (feeling endless love, Autumn in my heart! ^_^)

Pretty Flower that i saw on the cafe where we had our breakfast.

Breakfast before going to the orchard. Pies and hot chocolate :D

NSW: Royal Easter Show Sydney 2014

     Every year, the Royal Easter Show is being held to exhibit some of Australia’s agriculture. It showcases some livestock and produce. There are also competitions being held where the different states send their participants. A fair and an amusement park are also organized for younger ones. Hundreds of show bag to choose from and food to try.

    We went on a Saturday therefore we were able to watch the fireworks at the end of the show (fireworks are only on the weekends). Aside from this, another one of my favorite is the D-Max exhibition. It was really cool!

     Note: Due to large number of pictures, I opted to make a video slide show for them.

Thanks for visiting my blog and till next time! ^_^

NSW: Visiting St. Mary's Cathedral

Posting a few pictures from my first visit  to St. Mary's Cathedral. No pictures of inside the cathedral because we're not allowed to take some and the guards are really strict about it (they actually follow you around!). ^_^ 

For info about the church you can go here.

Random thoughts 09.08.14

Just decided to try to write some of my thoughts right now. Trying to take them out of my system. Hoping that I’ll feel better and inspired after I have shared this.

• I’ve been having a hard time writing lately. I don’t know why. Lack of inspiration maybe? Or just feeling stressed? Every time I open my computer and try to write something for my blogs, my mind just can’t organize the words that I wanted to say. There are lots of things that I want to write about, mainly about my life updates and some reviews. The only social media that I have and is updated is my lookbook.nu account.  I think this is because I don’t need to think about long statements for this site (even the title of my post are lacking creativity T_T).

• I’ve been doing a lot of schoolwork for the past few months. Reading most of the time and writing reports for my subjects. Also been spending time in the public library because I find it hard to concentrate on my schoolwork when I just stay at home.

• Another thing that I’ve been thinking about is my inability to find a job. I’ve done odd jobs here and there but no permanent job so far. Maybe this is also a reason for my stress? Need to earn money for next semester’s expenses.

• Lastly, I’ve also been thinking about my family lately. Homesickness? I’ve been here in Sydney for 7 months now. Thank heavens for Facetime, imessage, Facebook, cellphone, laptop and other devices and software invented. Been talking to my sister most of the time and she updates me on what is happening back home.

Well that’s it for now. I’ll really (really) try to write those articles that have long been overdue. There ends my emo-post ^_^

NSW: Circular Quay

My Cousin took me for a tour around Sydney metro to show me the different places that I should remember, specially my way to and from the univ. Bus, train, streets, shortcuts and etc. since we’re already in the city, why not visit the must see tourist destinations right?! ^_^

NSW: Jamberoo Adventure!

Jamberoo is a Water theme park located in “1215 Jamberoo Road, Jamberoo NSW 2533”. For more information about the park you can visit their website (http://www.jamberoo.net). This action park was my first tourist destination here in Sydney. My cousin, with her friends, had planned to go here as an end of summer outing. Since I’ve just arrived in Sydney at that time, they decided to take me with them. The only thing that I can remember is that “It’s really cold!” (Even thought they said that its still summer). Hey! I grew up in a country where 20 degree is considered cold. I experience all the rides except the “Giant Mammoth River” and “Tantrum Alley” because the queue is really long and the park closes at 5:30 in the afternoon. If you want to ride them all, be sure to come at opening time! ^_^
