to the movies we go!

I know it's been awhile since I blogged! Been really busy with glücklich! Being the only elf -making necklaces, drawing shoes and making hair clips- doesn't really help either :( also i was away for about 4 days for a conference,

Anyways.. Despite being busy with all the handy craft, I still managed to squeeze in some time to go to the movies :) let me give you a little in-sight to what I have
watched:

1) Monga
A Taiwanese movie about 5 young guys who joined the secret society.. A walk through their lives full of Laughter, tears & fights. It also portrays their eternal brotherhood which was based on trust and protection and ironically betrayal.. I give it 10 out of 10 stars.. Absolutely loved cute gangster boys!

2) Book of Eli
A story which setting is based on post apoccolyps events. About a guy named Eli who has a very impt book which apparently is the last book of its kind. This book was suppose to be wipped out and destroyed, but he managed to keep it from the authorities who was destroying all books that describe life before the "flash" which erased everyone memory. Turns out it was a bible and he was given a task to travel to the west to pass the book to someone who would protect it. Along the way he meets people who got in his way.. He made friends.. Bonded with people and finally after all the hurdles he delivers the book, but died.
Honestly the trailer made the movies soy d much much more interesting.. But who can resist denzil washinton! Not the best movie but story line was simple & straight to the point with a little twist. I give it 6 out of 10 stars

3) Iron man 2
Need I say more? Who doesn't know iron man.. The latest super hero created by marvel! Absolutely loved iron man 1 and same goes for number 2.. Now I can't wait for 3 :). The grapics of high tech monitors & projections won my heart! 10 out of 10 stars..

Coming soon...
Can't wait to catch Robin hood and eclipse!! :)

Things to do in Sydney: Part 1

Ok so I am into my fourth month of my relocaton and although i haven't seen much of NSW, I must say I am currently on a very steady pace of discovering what's there to do in Sydney. So I am going to make a list, I love making lists. I think i will introduce the Sydney CBD or City to you first and then in my next post, i will share with you all the suburban juicy locations.

Sydney City
Central, Town Hall, Wynyard, Circular Quay, St James, Martin Place and Museum station is basically the city cirle, in which you can easily catch the city circle line to get around or you can walk. With so much to see 1 day won't really be enough to cover everything.

1) CENTRAL:
If you stop at central, you will be in close proximity to Chinatown, I must say this is the best Chinatown this country has, compared to Brisbane and Perth's pathetic Chinatowns that is only made up of 1 street. You can get almost everything you need to suit your Asia craving! Also in the heart of China town, you have Paddy's Market, first time visiors should give it a visit! Rows and Rows of souviniers, clothes, hardware and jewellery shops. Always the whole round before you get carried away with your spending, you might just save a buck or two at the shops all the way inside.

2) TOWNHALL:
At Townhall, you have your cinemas, shopping centres - like the famous QVB and cafes. At St James you could visit hyde park, where alot of street events are held, also just or a quiet afternoon picnic in the sun.

3) ST JAMES:
A short walk from St James, you could visit Sydney's wilder side of the city: Kingscross - With all the bars, clubs and nightclubs all lined up to spice up your nightlife.

4) CIRCULAR QUAY
At circular quay, this is the main ferry terminal where you would go take the ferries to Manley, Watsons Bay, Double Bay, Parramatta etc. Also a short walk from Circular quay and you would end up at The Rocks.

more updates in the next post... look out for part 2
