break has come to an end. Still got another week of break to go. THe highlight of this week programme is the visit to the Royal Melbourne Show yesterday.
Supposed to go with the first year music faculty mates, but in the end, many people say they dont want to go, or they are already going with their own group of friends, so I am kinda late in asking. :( But nevertheless, still got Michelle ( a fellow cosdu friend of mine) who is interested to go, and end up going with her.
The royal melbourne show is really fun. There are animals, carnivals, displays, exhibitions, competitions all at the entrance fee of $17. The first thing we are caught is the amount of farm animals on display. One could really smell the stench of the animals dunk at the entrance (there are many entrances, but from where I come from). The animals on display belong to the farmers. There are many farmers that display their livestock, from horses, cows, pigs, sheeps, goats, chickens, and I must say, they are really tamed... (duh, they are domestic animals), and one thing, they cant be bothered with humans. Just stroke them but they have no reaction or response to you. Took some pictures with the animals though. THey are lovely.
Next, we walked to the carnival section of the show. Played the bumper car, and some luck games, though I guessed I have overspent my allowance and eating into my reserve allowance now. SIgh, time to save up again. But anyway, I won a huge siberian husky, a small seal and a tiny mouse (of a size of keychain). The games are really creative, and also encourages more participants to join. For example, there is this game, using the concept of poker, but using balls of pool table, the winner with the biggest show hand wins the big prize. Unfortunately, I dont have any luck with that. My biggest show hand was 2 Aces, 1 King ang 1 Queen. (missed a ball) :(
But nevertheless, it was a day of pure fun, although I need to monitor my wallet now. :(
