Sharlene told me about this one....so hard to find. Apparently they have the best coffee in Melbourne. It's indeed very good.

Then this is the famous kokoblack in Melbourne for its Belgium chocolates

So lucky that I do have the chance to wear bikini nearly everyday. After gym the muscle is totally stuff so just in need of dip into the hot spa. In Australia no one wears one piece swimwear. Oh yes only for woman above age 60. You can't really wear bikini to swim cause it's gonna come up. Not a good sight for anyone. However In the spa its considering normal. I normally have no eye contact with people when I get into the spa (normally only 2 -3 there in the morning anyway). No need to talk or have eye contact with anyone when you are in the spa I believe. But I also believe that it's compulsory to look hot in that hot tub. So this is my new addiction to wardrobe of bikinis. Hot ba.

There are lots of night markets in Taiwan. We love it. None of those in city. Oh yes except every November we have night market on those 4 Saturday nights at the Rocks. Then we have this night market in Chinatown every friday night. Nothing exciting that they sell but gee so many people. Just like in Asia.

This school holiday I have been doing some hard core eating. In order to do so my routine is basically every morning at the gym by 9. After Spa, shower i drive straight to have lunch with whoever we schedualed to. Then bit of shopping in the afternoon plus coffee time with whoever. Went home and had a little nap before going to dinner with another whoever. In the evening I then will do some work preparation for next term. Yesterday we went to this very spicy chinese restaurant in Chinatown. I don't think I have had such spicy food before. So good but such a torture afterwards.

Haven't seen Anita for a long time. Maria's family came back from Taiwan so we all went to Anita's house. Jonas and Angelica's rooms are absolutely gorgeous. They are so lucky aren't they?
 

I didn't feel very well  these days. I think both physically and mentally I am exhausted. Went to bed pretty early for the past few days but still felt something is not quite right. Today is the first day of school holiday for the first time this year I slept past 7 am. 12:30 pm I woke up. Couldn't believe I am capable of sleeping that long. Thank God it's holiday....these few days I am going to learn how to do nothing. No gym, no work, no going out. Just take it easy.

Jessica dlivered the cupcakes and chocolates to me for easter and birthday. Some kids are really sweet, they don't even have lessons this week but they travel to deliver it. I think it's so sweet of them. This cupcake is so yummy....you want to have one after another but the voice in the head kept saying stop stop stop....

I finally decided which builder to come to fix the rails of the house. After comparing 4 quotes i could tell you all the dramas I have been through. One of them even got angry when I confronted how expensive he was. The one I am going to ask is the builder/handyman from a friend. A middle age australian who really looks honest. I checked his work at my Italian friend's house and it was indeed very good. I have no idea how one person can do such a big job but he did. At the end it's $3000 cash price for doing the rails, fix the front door and pressure clean. To be able to get 3000 only we are going to pay in cash. So each of us will pay him 1000 in cash and he will start on the 20th April. profession in trade is not that bad isn't it. These days the economic is so bad that all professional guys are losing jobs and the umemployment rate reaches the top 5.7% in Australia according to the news last night. But the trademan's business goes on and on....

I used my I phone in class very often. Lots of time I download pop songs so we can pick which one to play. Sometimes I put on youtube for them to see the video clip. Sometimes I record their voice and lots of times i take photos of them. These two girls one day looked at me very seriously. "How come my photo is not in your I phone?" Oh dear. I am so sorry. Now they are in. Everyone is happy.

Haven't updated about neko for a while. Nothing changes much. Just the same old lazy self. This is the regular massage I gave her. Sometimes I am not sure who is the boss and who is the pet.
