T Rex arrived in Melbourne last Saturday from NSW! As she's staying at Zhi Han and Daphne's place at College Square, a few of us at Monash here went to city to have dinner with her on Saturday, with another plan to celebrate Ling Sing's birthday earlier (her birthday's today - Monday). So Nooi Hoay, Chean Ying, Ye Chia, Ryan and I went to Melbourne Central and shopped a while for Ling Sing's present while waiting for them to arrive to have dinner together. We bought her a nice green handbag...hope she likes it! Daphne took us to eat at a Korean restaurant, the food there was nice but I personally think that the Korean restaurant at Clayton is better (maybe it's the side dishes).
After dinner, we went to Lygon Street (where College Square is) to have some gelatissimo (a kind of ice cream). When we were walking to the second ice cream shop, 5 of us from Monash told the rest that we were about to leave coz it's already 10pm. It's actually part of the plan for the surprise party. Ru Xing looked very surprised; Ling Sing then said to both Chean Ying and Ru Xing, 'Wei, CY wanna go back already, don't want to hug hug a while?' (I felt kinda funny coz we were going to meet a few minutes later anyway). We then left and walked straight down the street to the nearest tram stop to catch a tram to College Square. We missed a tram by a few seconds, so we waited for another 6 minutes for the next tram. Just then, we saw Zhi Han, Ru Xing, Daphne and Ling Sing who just came out from the ice cream shop was walking towards our direction but at the opposite side of the road!! Zhi Han was on the phone talking with Ye Chia who was with us, and we were thinking of ways of how to avoid Ling Sing from seeing us (coz it's the other way to go back to Monash). We quickly walked further down before they crossed the road and just then the tram arrived. 'Arrrghhhh...we have to wait for the next tram again!' I said.
After taking the next tram to College Square, we went straight up to Zhi Han's room to gather all of us together including Amelene and Esther. We then walked to Ling Sing's room and knocked on her door. How surprised Ling Sing was when she opened the door! I asked her whether did she see us when she was taking the tram back just now, but somehow the blur girl Ling Sing didn't realise that we were just at the opposite side of the road that time! And I told Zhi Han that 'our acting skills were poor but for Ling Sing it's already good enough =P' By the way, Amelene said that I seemed taller and I answered, 'Yeah coz I'm 19 already...so grow taller la... =P'
Happy birthday, Ling Ling Sing Sing~
We sang birthday song and took pictures while eating cake, then rushed back to Melbourne Central but it's already quite late. We knew that we won't be in time for the last bus from Huntingdale station to Monash University bus loop; so we took taxi back to the halls from the station instead, reaching the halls at about 12.30am. 'Long time never come back this late already' (NH 2007).
----------------------------------------------
Today (Monday) Ru Xing came to Monash University to join in a lecture in the afternoon! It's really 勇 (brave doesn't sound appropriate I think, so I choose this word) of her to come all the way from city after shopping at Bridge Road this morning, all by herself! I just gave her directions on how to come to Monash and she made it! She arrived at Monash during lunch break when all of us were sitting at the 'airport lounge' at campus centre. Chean Ying and I went to meet her at the bus loop and brought her to campus centre to have her lunch. After that, we went to the lecture on cranial nerves at South 1 Theatre. The excited Chean Ying even wanted to show her who 美女 is... =.= ‘她很美啊，ABC来的，皮肤……比你黑一点……' (CY 2007)
T Rex with her housefly-like sunglasses =P
After lecture, Yu Wan and I showed Ru Xing around the campus and halls of residence. We took many pictures...
Looks like we were in Japan!
