工作多一個月,又出發喇~

Fri, 25 Feb 2011 | By mishulee | Views [4718]

回到golden boat工作已經第5個星期喇,早3個星期因為新年而忙得不得了,忙到有一下,我好似諗唔起自己係香港係做咩(好誇張咁喎!)再認真咁諗,其實我係澳洲工作左只有2個半月o者,點會咁容易忘記左香港做左4年既工作呢?不過真係有種好'虛'既感覺,好唔真實!唔真實並唔係係澳洲做waitress呢個感覺喎,而係原來我真係係香港教書!?! 近來係餐廳,仲做埋bar!對於一個都唔係點飲酒既我,記啤酒名我都仲ok,不過紅酒,白酒,以致要溝既酒,我初初都成日問,呢個落咩架,個杯又要加檸檬嘛?!不過,都好丫,有D野學到,又幾好玩!(有試過溝錯左,就益左老細細佬啦,又有得飲喇!) ...

難得DAYOFF,居然會咁......

Fri, 25 Feb 2011 | By mishulee | Views [3362]

今日難得DAYY OFF...居然... 話說頭先出房門見到一個好生面口既男人用緊公家電腦上網,而出面度大門又開左!(近來唔知點解度門成日開左,我地住下層,如果我地行開行埋冇LOCK門,D人係完全可以偷晒我地D野!)咁我想去廁所喎, 咪拎埋KEY,LOCK埋門去囉...後來我番入房上網啦,同我同房朋友CHAT(因為佢係餐廳中場休息,上網打發時間) 後來我去廚房拎野食,拎完番黎一開門先知,死喇!條KEY係檯面,而度門頭先冇UNLOCK到!我身上冇電話,冇錢,出面又落傾盆大雨,當然我亦唔會有遮啦!點算好?原本諗住搵OWNER,不過又冇電話打俾佢地,又唔係好想問隔離房既男仔借,跟住諗起可以用公家電腦FB ...

Skydiving on Valentines' Day part 2

Fri, 25 Feb 2011 | By mishulee | Views [4468] | Video

講番轉頭,係去到個CENTRE之後,要填一份類似生死狀既野,而等候出發既過程入面,有一段教練們係不同地方跳SKYDIVE既VIDEO,邊睇邊等,都有D緊張!!片段入面有個長長地頭髮既教練,睇落都幾型既~佢地去既地方有D係雪山,有時係一條穚?! 同行既仲有另外幾個人,從樣子同英語就知道佢地黎自台灣,不過有趣既係,有D女仔居然著人字拖黎玩SKYDIVE!?會唔會真係認真諗下有咩合適既衣著裝備先黎玩呢?咁當然個CENTRE都有諗到有一班唔乜諗野既客人而準備既鞋數十對,任君選擇! 係真係出發上車前,我地要放低各人既袋,身上可能會掉既物件,之前我仲諗有冇機會可以影下跳SKYDIVE既埸地點知原來一D機會都冇!>...

So long Melbourne, it was time to head even farther south, by way of overnight ferry. After a short nights sleep aboard the Spirit of Tasmania, we stepped off the ship, rented our second car on the wrong side of the road, and found ourselves some breaky ... Read more >

係完全冇咩心裡準備下,就係情人節既前一日決定左用一個咁特別既方法去慶祝一下~~ 其實係因為有個台灣女仔去問,知道有個VALENTINES SPECIAL OFFER, 同一價錢,包14,000FT JUMP+VIDEO, 依家送埋相,所以我就JOIN左!! 不過前一晚又同GOLDEN BOAT同事去飲野,所以只訓左4個鐘,7點起身,8點出發!~~ 不過可能成件事都太突然,所以未好識覺得驚!!去到個DIVE CENTRE,有好幾個人已經到左,當中大部份都係台灣人,終於等到大約9點--出發喇!! ... Read more >

颱風過後, 忙碌既開始

Wed, 16 Feb 2011 | By mishulee | Views [3700]

上回講到YASI 令我地要走佬左2日,幸好SHAREHOUSE冇任何事,冇水浸,冇停電; 相反有幾個同事屋企唔係有少少水浸左,就係停電一兩日!我地真係好彩! 睇新聞講個D正中颱風既地方,都有屋頂被毀等等,所以CAIRNS今次冇咩事真係好彩,因為個風打落左D,比預計中遠左! 正如有個朋友所講, 我今次真抵玩!居然係澳洲遇到被聲稱百年難得一遇既強力颱風,而自己能夠安然無恙得黎,住既地方又冇受到影響,但又經歷到係香港經歷唔到既事!咁講真,今次真係好好彩! 不過係颱風過後(打風個晚既第二日),就正正係年初一!好多餐廳早上都冇開門,而老闆知道CITY有電,所以就晒我地返工喇!我估因為冇咩其他餐廳既原因,有好多散餐既客人黎,但我地有幾個廚房既同事冇返工,所以真係有D'林'擋!! ...
