Yes I’m blogging again, because I’ve got awesome photos and you don’t, so there xP

So today, 9VD & 9VA & some other random classes went on an art exhibition to see the 16th Biennale of Sydney!

To be honest, it wasn’t that exciting. BUT! Let me continue recounting our very fun and eventful day.

Tom woke up this morning, very excited because today was Biennale day! Having checked the weather forecast before, she was informed that it would be a nice sunny day today, so therefore, she didn’t wear her undershirt OR wear a scarf.

Alas, she was wrong. Although she did learn something- don’t ever believe in channel ABC’s weather report, because it is misleading and gives false information.

So Tom was stuck at Cockatoo Island, with winds blowing at 546874892375 km/hr towards her. It was very cold =[

Screw third person.

So anyways, when we were on the bus that would take us to the city, Pat just seemed to grab hold of my camera and start taking pictures of the normal Asian tourist attractions- Harbour Bridge, Opera House, that kind of stuff.

I finally got it off her when we were waiting at Walsh Bay for the stupid ferry to come.

And while waiting for the ferries, we got bored. And do you know what boredom does to you?

No?

PHOTOS!!!!

No, not luvos sorry. A proper SG photo =]

ATTEMPT NUMBER ONE: fail.

Fred & Jerry & George not looking @ the camera

ATTEMPT NUMBER TWO: SUCCESFUL! =]

BUT WAIT! WHY NOT BE LIKE ASIAN TOURISTS AND HAVE THE HARBOUR BRIDGE BEHIND US?

ATTEMPT NUMBER ONE: fail

Harbour Bridge cut off

ATTEMPT NUMBER TWO: SUCCESSFUL! VERYVERY GOOT!

So after that SG photo taking, the ferry came!

Everyone decided to go to the deck and enjoy the cool breeze, and the lovely smell of the seawater; matched with lovely sight attractions.

The “cool breeze” turned out to be winds the speed of 123978645896km per hour blowing against us so hard, that it was hard to keep balance on the deck ==

BUT.

You know what strong winds are good for?

YES. TITANIC POSES!

LOL.

But it didn’t turn out right =[

SO…

=]]]

So after that retarded titanic posing, the ferry had arrived on Cockatoo Island!

Yes, Cockatoo Island is the island where Fred went camping, if you’ve been paying attention to the previous posts xP

Seriously, I don’t get why anyone would want to go camping at Cockatoo Island. It’s a very ugly place, which has rundown buildings and cranes and such. And the winds blow at 234897356895km per hour. Surprising how the tents manage to stay up >_>

But the artwork was nice =] Well, not exactly “nice” but yea. Quite freaky actually but yea…

So after like, 2 hours or something on a cold, cold island with no food, we finally got back to ~~civilization~~ the city.

And on the Ferry, we got bored again.

And boredom leads to photos.

We were trying to attempt a “low angle shot…”

Which didn’t exactly turn out right, since the camera was too low, but I like this picture anyways.

So like, me being hungry and all, and suddenly craving for Asian bread; I had this idea that we were gna like, go to Chinatown and have free time and so I could get my Asian bread yea? But then, me being very hungry and all that forgot one key point.
The MCA was nowhere near China Town ==

Well then. There goes my Asian bread.

=[

But anyways, MCA was alright. And we saw Ruse people. And me and Pat saw our good friend, Jenny Wang from primary.

ROFLMAO.

Never mind if you don’t get the joke.

=]

And yea. It was a very fun day. Kinda =]
