Rushed In & Out

Teddy music: Fredro Starr & Jill Scott - Shining Through

My guess is that people would be expecting a full on description of the past few days spent in Melbourne. That's not what's going to happen. Yesh, there will be pictures but not much to say.

It was something that was interesting and eye-opening to see the real industry for what it is. Picked up some nuggets of wisdom. Shocked my system into steeling myself for what could happen. But, the best part of the whole trip was getting to see my friends there. Because of them, I can't wait (in a sense) to go back to see them.

Teddy music: Lifehouse - Everything

Other than that, I was experiencing "city culture shock". That's probably the best way to put it for me. As the bus was entering into Melbourne, I started to feel the old adrenaline rush entering my body system. The busyness of it all. The constant rush. I was glad that I'm in Canberra where I can take at least a year off from this. I realised just how much I didn't miss the big citylife. Of course, I would be able to tolerate it but at the end of it all, I would want some place where I can go and just find some peace.

Peace. That's all I want at the end of everything.

So, here's some pix from the Melbourne trip. I'll admit that Melbourne's a very pretty city thanks to the fact that they have this heritage city scheme that doesn't allow them to tear down the old building facades. Even then, the new architecture's something to feast your eyes on.

Say what?
Witches & Bitches. Yesh, you read that right.
Skyscraping the city sky
Melbourne's night skyline

Teddy music: Frou Frou - Maddening Shroud

I've got a good mind to throw it all away...
That's what I kinda feel like at the mo'.

Amber building
Pretty pretty Flinders Street Station - it's on the Aussie Monopoly version! =)
Girl shot
L-R: Ee-Lin. CK. Dorothy. Met up with them the first night and my last night there. Forgot to take a group pic on the last night with Manvinder. Hadn't seen him in four years!
Blurry life
Life in the city's like this, in my opinion. A blur whizzing past you with no time to stop.
Happy gelato eaters
Met up with Joy on my second night. We had delicious gelato at Lygon Street. Mmmmm

Teddy music: Ben E. King - Stand By Me

This song is forever immortalised in my mind as one of the Rainmakers' songs. =)

So there you have it. My Melbourne trip in a nutshell.

I discovered that I'll probably need and have to fly solo from now on. Time to subscribe to the club.

I don't think I can put up with this any longer.

Teddy music: Antonio Carlos Jobim with Stan Getz - Desafinado

Somehow, I feel like I'm confined. I want to break away and live. To run free without feeling burdened.

*insert mental image of wild pony running through grassy meadows with wind whipping its mane around*

Tough luck on me that I don't look anywhere near as glamorous as that. And, I guess it's a good thing I don't look like a horse either.
