  • gluttony...

    So with just over three weeks left in Perth I've decided to compile a list of my favourite food I MUST eat before I go and hopefully manage to eat it all and not get too fat in the process :P

    • Ciao Italia - must eat their Spaghetti Marinara one more time
    • Phi Yen - No. 8, dry, mixed noodles, no coriander, no heart and liver - gosh I'm picky
    • Kai - Ramen! and Salmon sushi!
    • Flipside Burgers - best burgers I've had in Perth IMO
    • Hawker's - everything! I must have one good meal there before I leave - best Malaysian food I've had in Perth
    • Cicerello's - more for the atmosphere than anything else and the nostalgia of having Fish 'n' chips in freo :)
    • Kitchen Inn Cafe - kampua, although seeing as I'm going back to Kuching I could probably give this a miss
    • Jusburgers - just the onion rings - sooo good they actually make me like onions :O
    • Rochelle Adonis - Blondie! 

    Gosh seems like all I want to do is eat but of course more important than that is to eat all of this with friends ^^.

  • a new chapter...

    So I'm sitting in the airport waiting to head home to Perth - I can't believe a month has passed. So much has happened and at the same time it seems such a short time. I've spent a month getting to know Melbourne - the people, the place, the lifestyle, the food.

    One thing I can say is it's very different Perth and I can see why people from Perth may love it more - there's definitely a lot more things to do here. But I'm a small city girl I love my laid-back lifestyle, empty streets, small crowds. Having said that the food in Melbourne is pretty epic. So anyways as this has basically been a trial run for moving here I have to say the one thing that has helped me come to terms with moving away from Perth is the people. I have to say everybody here has really been welcoming and made me feel at home here in Melbourne. I love the sense of community I feel at church.

    I know I'm going to miss Perth like crazy, especially my friends and family, but maybe I should look at the move as a new chapter that God is opening for me. There are still so many unknowns on the horizon and God may still yet have a better plan for me but I know that if it's moving to Melbourne then that's something I know with God's guiding hand I can handle and adapt to.
