Mardi Gras 2007

The Sydney Mardi Gras is an annual gay pride parade and festival for the gay and lesbian community in Sydney, Australia. According to the official website, there are around 350,000 people who came to watch this years parade. And I happen to be one of them, but that does not proove that I am gay okay!

Okay, without further delay, here's the pics. Beware, there are some disturbing pics. Definitely not for the cannot tahan gayness/lesbians ppl. Haha.



On the way to Oxford St, where the Mardi Gras event is held I came across quite a number of uniquely dressed ppl. Haha, okay, I dun know what to call them. Notice the 1st guy on the right? He's wearing super tight shorts and makeup.






No, this store is just an ordinary Chemist. It's the few individuals in front of the store that captured my attention. If you guessed that the spiky hair guy is weird, watch properly to the short hair guy with black tee on the right. He is actually holding a dog chain, chained to his partner, the lady behind him. Woof Woof.

The Chemist is actually selling stools for $5 per stool. It's actually a good business coz after the parade ends, people will leave their new bought stools back there for the chemist to collect again. Mayb i shud do that next year.














The event started with Mr. John Doe and Mrs. Jane Doe riding this cool motor thingy. I think it is called a segway. They look cool riding it thou. Err, I meant the electronic scooters la duh, not Mr. John and Mrs. Jane Doe! Anyway, the evening got started with them riding the segway along the street a few times.














They were then followed by this hot nurses. If only nurses in hospitals are these hot, I would have been a frequent visitor :) No, You did not see wrong. They are bodyfit males in a nurse uniform. Haha, I know u wanna touch them so badly MQ. No doubt they do look sexy in the outfit thou.



Next up is the Karma Kleaners. Em, I had no idea what are they and what do they do. So, go figure it out yrself :)









This group supports making the planet green. Nah, it's actually their excuse to run around just in body paint. Not a bad sight. At least they are good looking. You'll understand why i say so later.








Tadaa. Take that. Tat is a freakin monster boobs. Haha. The worse thing is, I dun know if that is a man or lady. It's just a scary sight. Thank god "it" remains on the other side of the road.











The event is so fun that even ATM machines wanna join the parade too. Em peeps, just becareful when you are withdrawing money from ANZ atm machines next time.










This handsome dude is gay. Wat a pity.













Presenting, Thai pussycats. They seriously do have the body. However, some or maybe all of them are not straight. Haha, they're Thai afterall.











The best float of the night. Roman chicks. Yes, pretty they all are. And sexy too!











Muscular blokes draggin the Trojan horse.



















Top: A group of random guys. The tattoo guy looks sad. Mayb he lost his partner to some other gay.

Left: Group of guys in leather undies. Sweet.






BEWARE. The following contents are not for the faint-hearted. Please click on the "X" button on the top right of your screen if you are not a gay or lesbian. However, in clicking "X", you are certified a pussy for "chickening" out. Haha, JK lar.. Can anot?



Miss Ugly Pageant. Haha. What better name to describe them. Ohyah, they are all guys btw. See, I'm not a sexist.























Top Left: Another wtf moment in the parade.

Top Right: A passionate volunteer posing with her sharp boobs.

Yah, this is pretty much what I have. To those that are interested in more pics, visit this dude's flickr. Guarenteed more funny pics in there.
P/S: Sry for the bad arrangement of pics. Gettin fed up with blogspot. I shall post small pics only next time. :(

Homeless no more!

People, after nearly 3 weeks of house hunting, I am finally not homeless anymore. Screw you leryee and MQ. No more HOMELESS okay. Haha

Anyway, let's join in the journey of house hunting in Sydney.

Generally, Sydney has an average vacancy rate of 15% over the years. Unfortunately, the rate fell to nearly 1.7% this year. I forgot which dude told me this. :P

Yes, that's a dramatic drop. Uh.. Wonder why eh?

Well, according to my uncle, who is a PR and works in a real estate field, he claims that the Oz govt. has stopped building new apartments in the city at the moment. Therefore, the chances of you being able to find a vacant apartments is like finding a $1 dollar coin in the beach. Haha.

But yeah, that's just how hard it is to find a place in the city.

Most of you must be sayin, " Eh, why you alwiz on9 only? I tot u homeless? Go around and find house lar." Haha. Unfortunately, that's not the case over here. First of all, we did go around the agents looking for apartments to rent. However, due to the stupid rules here, they couldn't simply let us inspect the apartments. According to the agents, we have to set a date with the agent. And apparently, most inspections are done on Saturdays, which leave us with nothing much to do on weekdays.

Come Saturdays, we have to freakin rush from this apartment to that apartment, then to another apartment and so on for inspection. Hmmph, what if we found a nice apartment and decided to rent it? Juz pay deposit and bond then settle la, can sign contract ady. Ya rite man. It's not like this. Apparently due to the freakin low vacancy rate in the city, we have to rebut with nearly 20 other applicants. Yes, it's 20 other applicants, not people!

Okay, how bad can it be? 20 applicants only mar. NO once again. According to the agent, most landlord prefer to rent their apartments(in most preferred order) to working people, married couples, family, and lastly students. Oh wait, students are divided into two parts, Female and Male. Okay, seeing that Me, Fats, Yy and Cy are guys, we're last among the last. Damnit.

As weeks past by and our frustrations gradually increasing, we finally found a place. However it is in the suburb. There were 3 other groups inspecting the apartment at the same time. Haha, it must have been our lucky day. Apparently the agent is a Malaysian and it seems that the apartment belongs to his friend. He even chatted with us in Cantonese( the other groups are Indons) and mentioned that he would rather rent it to us. We handed in the documents and filled in the application forms as normal.

A few days later, we got a call from this agent again. He told us that the landlord decided to rent to us the apartment but we have to wait 2 weeks before we could move in as the landlord needs to find a new place to stay. Wat the hell, 2 weeks aint nothing, might as well wait as long as we get the apartment. Therefore we agreed with the agent and decided to sign the contract the next day. Wat happen the next day surprised us to hell. The freakin agent called us in the morning and said that the landlord decided to rent his apartment to the other group. Fuck you no tomorrow buddy! Knn Ccb. There, another home got rob.

Ohyah, I did not mention that we had an apartment got stolen right under our nose. Haha, stupid of us eh. We got conned by that agent. Here's how the story goes. We went for an inspection in Summit(the building I lived in last year) and decided to rent it. The agent told us that we could hand in the application forms by tomorrow morning. Partly confident that we could get this apartment, we came back the next morning to find out that the agent had ady rented this apartment to 2 Thai chicks. Damn u hamsaplou.

Yea, after all the frustrations and so we finally got a house in Kingsford. It's near UNSW and there are alot of Asian restaurants around there, notably the famous Ayam Bakar 99 and Sinma. We're paying 650 p/w for this house( at 650, you could only get an unfurnished 2br apartment in the city). It has 4 small bedrooms and a large bedroom. I decided not to upload any pics yet as the house is very empty indeed. Haha, the fact is, I'm lazy thou :P

That's pretty much about it. Sums up why I am homeless in Sydney for nearly 3 weeks. Thanks very much to SP for letting us stay over in his place all this while. Thanks dude.

Fly me to Sydney!









Bye Bye Klang!

Hi to Sydney again~....



It's sad when you have to leave your parents, siblings, buddies, friends and good foods all back in mainland and travel to another country to freakin stay for one year(min) and study. Well, it's much funner if you are on holidays. Well, complains aside, I'm actually looking forward to fly back. Why? Coz the chicks here are just so HOT. Haha.. It's true guys, dun get jealous gals, you have to see for yourself to believe it.

Okay, back to my journey. I took Austrian Air a.k.a Lauda Air. Having change to this flight from the original MAS one that i booked, I managed to save RM900. Yes, it's that much. However, there are sidebacks to it. Dad have to fetch me to the airport at 3am in the mornin cause my flight was at 6am. Thanks Dad. Overall, I feel satisfied with Austrian Air. Although the food sucks, they make up with the service they provide. And also.... Thanks to Fats we have extra space to stretch our legs, not that Yong needs much thou.

Anyway, Fats could not join us due to his visa thingy. See lar.. Do things last minute again. Padan muka. Now u travel alone.. Wahaha. Once again, thank you very good Fats for the added space.


This is the breakfast that they served us. It looks decent enough. But then, do not judge till you have actually tried them. I swear the bread is f*ken hard. Hard till if you hit a dog with it, the dog will faint. Haha. Try it and you'll believe it.



After 8 hours of flight, we finally reached Sydney International Airport. Having seated on row 11A and 11C, we managed to get ourselves out of the airplane before the rest. I swear this is the closest I've get to actually have a seat in business class. Will work hard for it thou! Minus the queue, we managed to get our luggage out and away asap before the other passengers. Tadaa... Fresh Oz Air. Seriously, the air over here is less polluted compared to Msia.
We took a cab to city. Here's when the trouble starts. We're actually homeless people. Haha. At 1st thought, it would have been fun. Wandering around aimlessly trying to find for a bed to sleep in with your luggage is not easy. Thanks to CY, we got two beds in YHA Travel Backpackers. Seriously, if any of you guys decided to go backpacking, you should consider YHA. Their dorms are clean. And if you're lucky, you might score backpacking babes there too!
The hallway leading to our room. Notice how clean the walls are.

This is how our dorm looks like. It's a 6 bedroom dorm. We're sharing them with 4 other guys. Most backpackers have the 'mou tiu' attitude. You can actually do anything you want in the dorm and they wouldn't mind a bit. *Imagine couples making out* There's a poolside BBQ party organized by YHA that night itself.
p/s : This post was suppose to come up a week ago. However, due to the stupid computer in Uni's lab, bloggin is a hassle. And, I'm still homeless after 2 weeks of home searching. It Sux. Will update later again.
Ciaoz peeps.

Post-Valentines

Valentines Day for me was a dinner with a friend of mine. Well, it was suppose to be a group of friends. But being Malaysians, particularly Klangians, they managed to ffk me and my friend, leaving the both of us to our so called Valentines date. LoL. While wandering aimlessly along The Curve to find for a restaurant that could actually serve our food fast, we noticed alot of couples. Like Duh~, it's Valentines afterall. But that's not the case, we actually discussed about which couples who look like they can make it and those who wouldn't. Can we really see how far could a couple go based on their actions? Well, I dun think I am capable of telling which couples would make it and which wouldn't. I think that's where girls are better than us guys. Seriously, I bliv a girls sixth sense is better, at least in terms of relationships thou. Sorry gals, we, guys owned you in other matters. :P


Haha, gals, don't over-react to my comment above and start cursing me kay? I am a guy afterall, so bear with it *bluek*. I was wondering, what's so special about Valentines? Why would guys spend so much on his partner just for that day? Wouldn't it be better if you celebrate this special occasion on the anniversary of your relationship instead of on Feb 14th? Personally, I think everyday is a special day if you are with your special one. Plus, Valentines is a reminder of your relationship. Therefore it should be appropriate to celebrate them on your anniversary. Bah.. Afterall this talk, I still feel Valentines is a day for girls to get pampered by their loved ones. How I wish it would be the opposite. Girls will call me for a date, shower me with gifts and cards. Haha.. Dream on LiSeong!

Valentines Day

It's Valentines Day today. Let's get into some history of valentines. February 14 is the traditional day for Valentines. It is a day where lovers express their love for each other. Although it is celebrated as a lover's holiday today, it originated in the 5th Century Rome as a tribute to St. Valentine, a Catholic bishop.
For 800 years prior to the establishment of Valentine's Day, the Romans practiced a pagan celebration in mid-February commemorating young men's rite of passage to the god Lupercus. The celebration featured a lottery in which young men would draw the names of teenage girls from a box. The girl assigned to each young man in that manner would be his sexual companion during the remaining year. (Dun wtfbbq why am I not born then?)
Then came Pope Gelasius. In an effort to do away with the pagan festival, he ordered a slight change in the lottery. Instead of the names of young women, the box would contain the names of saints. Of coz, the rules had changed too. The game was to emulate the ways of the saint they drew during the rest of the year. Needless to say, many young Roman men were not too pleased with the changes. (If I'm a Roman man, I will go knnccbwtfbbq. It's obvious rite, unless there are many porkchops during that time which I seriously doubt so. Oops, no harm being done here!)
The Church then looked for a suitable patron saint of love to take his place. That's where they found Valentine, whom later was beheaded by Emporer Claudius. Claudies had determined that married men made poor soldiers. Therefore he banned marriage from his empire. However, this Valentine guy would secretly marry young men that came to him. When Claudius found out about this he jailed Valentine. During the days in prison, Valentine fell in love with the blind daughter of his jailer. It is said that his great love for her managed to miraciously heal her from blindness before his death. Before he was taken to death, he signed a farewell message to her, "From your Valentine." That's the phrase that has been used up till now.
Do you know that:-
  • During Valentine's Day in Japan and Korea, women give candy, flowers and chocolates to all their male co-workers. (Hey, we Msian shud go towards this way too)
  • In Korea, males who did not receive anything for Valentine's Day gather to celebrate Black Day on April 14th. They are suppose to eat Jajangmyun(Chinese-style noodles in black sauce).
  • In Chinese culture, Valentines Day is known as "The Night of Sevens". It falls on the 7th day of the 7th month of the Lunar calender.
  • In Iran, this date is discreetly celebrated by most lovers despite the disaproval of such occasion by their Islamic govt. (They say it's a copycat of the West)
  • In Finland, Valentine's Day is called a Friend's Day. This day is more about remembering friends than your loved ones.
Happy Valentine's Day to couples out there. To those singles, Happy Black Day :P
P.S : I'm still single, anybody wanna date me?

Laughter, the best medicine?

Laughter is said to be the best medicine. I guess it's just true. Studies shows that laughter is linked with the activation of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (dun ask me whr i got this from, I did do some research 1st k), which produces endorphins after a rewarding activity. Yes, a rewarding activity as in after having a good meal, after you understand a joke and after you have sexual intercourse.
Studies have shown that laughing helps protect the heart. Psychologist Steve Sultanoff, Ph.D., who is the president of the American Association for Therapeutic Humor, gave this explanation:
"With deep, heartfelt laughter, it appears that serum cortisol, which is a hormone that is secreted when we’re under stress, is decreased. So when you’re having a stress reaction, if you laugh, apparently the cortisol that has been released during the stress reaction is reduced."

Studies around the world has also shown that laughter lowers one's blood sugar after a meal, improves blood flow in the body and improves our body immune response. Therefore, let's start laughing from today onwards. Cheerios my frens !
Here is an article that I found amusing during my chat with a friend. Do laugh and leave a comment if you found it funny. Have a good day :)
