the last enemy that shall be destroyed is death

i'm still throwing potter quotes around coz it's the only book i have with me at the moment (albeit an ebook. *shrugs* small distinction) so i've read it almost five times already. gimme a break ok! i'm a geek and geeks need to have their daily quota of sci-fi or fantasy. and no, watching it doesn't suffice.

anyway. i deviate.

my ski trip. that's the whole point. so.. ladies and gentlemen, welcome to lake mountains.

so, me, co and madison went to frank's and carmen's around 9.30. went for some hongkong styled breakfast. zomg! hongkies eat super a lot!! the breakfast came with some beef noodles AND toast, egg and bacon. that's more than my usual lunch! O_o

on the way up to lake mountains. scenery on the way up is superb. we passed some wineries, vineyards and cow/ sheep pastures. wows, right??

frank, carmen, bro and madison.

lake mountains stuff is kinda cheap. we rented five toboggans and three sets of skis for only 85 dollars! and the ski pass was like 15bucks per person or something like that. according to my bro, this place is better than mt. buller coz it's not so well known so not so packed and its nearer to the city. hence us driving there.

all geared up and ready to start cross country skiing!

i look superimposed on the background but i really didn't do anything to this photo =) camera lens fogged up though. THIS is why one should by allweather cameras. lol.

we went tobogganing after that. i don't quite like that trail we used. it's really bumpy and the bumps are really deep. super bruised myself from the run. i got a bruised ass! super hard to sit down now. lolz.

snow fight! super cold fighting in the snow. really couldn't feel my fingers after that. that's me hiding behind the blue toboggan. lolz. need a shield ok!

up on the mountains, night falls realy fast. it was like 5plus but it was SO dark. we went back to the cottage we were staying at for steamboat dinner. i super *heart* the cottage. it's so homely with two bedrooms, a kitchen and living room for guests. they even served breakfast of toast, eggs, bacon and mushrooms! but backtrack to dinner first. zomg. the other four i was with eat SUPER a lot!
that's JUST like one third of the food we brought and ate! O_o

the cottage is really homely and quaint but couldn't really sleep coz too bruised already. LOL.

anyway, next morning we had to rush back coz they needed to help me move house to carnegie.
but of course, we went out to take a few photos first.

we all went kawaii -_-

outside wombat cottage.

wombat cottage! named so coz there used to be a wombat living behind their cottage in the cow pasture. but according to tom, the old dude, wombat prob got hit by a car coz he hasn't seen wombat for a few months =(

the cottage is ginornimous! really pretty place. must go back one day. lolz. maybe next year X)

anyway, we rushed back. i packed my stuff, we went to pick jien, dropped our stuff at carnegie, went to ikea, went for dinner, went to coles and then they dropped me home where i unpacked and rushed out to meet lin, roshan, chong wen and mz. lolz. what a breathful -_-

still in the midst of unpacking. my room's becoming semi-livable now.

two more days to my big too-oh! oohs. i can't wait!! *giggles*

may the force be with smurfs becoming older,
cheers~
