都差不多二十岁的年纪了 心胸还那么狭窄

狭窄的原因
是因为 往心里搁了太多太多的东西

把 none of my business 的杂物清掉吧

没有必要 也不能继续在意那么多


还有
我其实什么都知道

What goes around comes around

终于明白那是什么滋味

我明白了

而我绝对不要继续承担下去

Peace

I tend to lose my way too frequently but I decided to go to Surry Hills alone last Saturday. 
Teo Teo said that is an area with a lot of drug addicts at night but who cares? (sounds too unrestrained haha)
I want to eat all the nice foods in Surry Hills.

homework I did so that I won't lose my way

How did a person with no sense of direction travel alone?

First, I charged my power bank the night before my so called 'adventurous day'.

Second, I brought along a headphone or else it would be really hard for my to listen what did the google map system said while walking along a busy street.

Third, I checked that I had enough cash with me so that I could hop into a cab if the worst situation happened. (was wondering if I could swipe my card in a taxi)

I missed the bus to the Railway Square in the morning so I waited at the bus stop for an hour for another bus to come. It was so cold that I keep felt like peeing. Ugh. Then I realised that I had to wave my hand to stop the bus in Sydney. I didn't do that back in Brisbane!

Took a 30 minutes walk to Crown Street, Surry Hills.
First stop was the Bills. Daniel from DanielFoodDiary said they served him the best scrambled egg ever so I decided to have a try.

waited for 45 mins before I got in

my breakfast at 1215pm

Called them a breakfast cause they were supposed to be my breakfast if I didn't miss my bus.
The only thing I like was the roasted tomatoes that I requested (costed me extra 4.50 dollar).

I prefer the cappuccino at Genie's and the scrambled egg was normal.
Overrated restaurant (in my opinion) probably because the owner is a celebrity chef.
And it was not worth it at all. Paid 22.90 dollar for these wth.


Next stop, Bourke St Bakery. 

loved the atmosphere

tables weren't fully occupied cause most people had takeaways

favourite cake of all time- carrot cake

Carrot cake isn't what this bakery is famous for but it was really sumptuous. Cream cheese wasn't too heavy. I bet their pies and tarts would be even more tastier coz they smelled like they were really yummy. 

Oh and one more thing I liked about this bakery: the staff complimented on my lovely bouncy hair. HAHAHA


Final stop, Gelato Messina. It is claimed to be selling Australians' favourite gelatos.

it was really crowded in the shop

tiny Mandarin sorbet - 3 dollar

Just one line for this sorbet:  Too sweet that I threw it away. LOL

At around 3pm, I walked back to the Chinatown to look for a friendly aunty at the information centre who helped the four of us last week.

Took a peek in the far distance to see whether she was on duty that day. After seeing her serving a group of chinese tourists, I bought a cup of 五花茶.

I kinda murmured when I appeared in front of her with a cup of liangteh (I was shy HAHA).
She probably thought I had difficulties in speaking english so she told me that I could use Mandarin. 

After telling her that I could communicate in English and reminded her that she gave us a lot of free postcards the week before, she finally remembered me. 

The first question that popped out from her mouth was: Oh so you want more postcards?

Of course not! The chat went on until her partner Martin came back with a bag of fruits.
Again, Martin is a really friendly angmoh with good sense of humour. I think they are made for each other  ❤


She couldn't drink the liangteh due to her health condition so I had to drink the liangteh myself until I was sibeh full. However, being able to meet Eliza again was certainly the happiest memory in my Sydney trip.

Martin tried ten times before this picture was taken

What do you care about the most in a vacation?
Definitely not the museums, art galleries and the historical buildings.

It is the people I meet.
I could still picture her telling Martin: 'This girl is a really lovely girl!' with her heavy Hong Kong accent.
