Winter break

Yes, this July is obviously my favourite month this semester so far. At least I have 3 reasons why.  I finish my exam. yayyyy! that means winter holiday was just around the corner. The next best part is that I was going on a Australia-wide tour, visiting 3 cities, each in different states: Goldcoast, Sydney, and Adelaide. But holiday won't be as exciting without great companion. My best friends were coming along with me. I also made new friends. Holiday, great destinations, and great friends, I certainly couldn't ask for more.  

I do travelling a lot. The fact that I am still in college and have the opportunity to travel with a group of friends is what makes traveling so much more fun. I have traveled with a lot of different friends, and I always learnt something new from them after the trip is over. I also believe that by traveling together, it will make you grow closer to each other.

Well, I had a high expectation on this trip as I know this was going to be a nice one. Yet, I am totally wrong.
It was just a perfect holiday and obviosuly going to be a trip to remember for the rest of my life.
 

Goldcoast is my first destination. I have been there three times and yet still falling in love with the holiday ambience and excitement on its themeparks. Tell me about it! I jumped on all thrilling rides and felt just great!
After spending three days there, we flew down to Sydney. This great city has almost everything to offer: breathtaking harbor view, yummy foods and not to mention the exciting city area. I just couldn't help but crying my heart out loud "Why I chose Melbourne instead of Sydney?"


The last leg of the tour was Adelaide. Were Sydney a bitchy downtown girl, then Adelaide would be just a plain, countryside girl with all her purities. I love the quiet environment and the way Adelaidean live in which they operate in a slower pace than any Australian cities I have been to. The highlight of going to Adelaide was relaxing.

Holidays are always too short though. It always come to an end at some point and there is always time to back to reality. New semester is coming on, and I got to be more aware. Of what? My bank account. I looked on my balance and got to agree to a quote that says money is running like water.

In order to make my bank balance look 'healthy' again, I decided to cut up some expenses. That happened to be my eating-outs. But it will soon change. Watch my word guys: The only time I am allowed to eat out is only at weekends, at least until the end of August. This fact also leads me in a way so that my body can be back on shape. Dried bank accounts, and blewing me! Total disaster! 

I guess, I let you guys know how the progress go and hopefully, my bank account and me, can be back on its appropriate shape. I got my fingers crossed. hihihihi
