Tripping around

We went out to a place called Paddy's Market and Market City. Its somwhere near Hayward ( hope i got the spelling right, too lazy to go verify).

We took the train to Central station. Well, since its been awhile since my friend went to this area, we were trying to figure out how to get around, which train would be better blablaba. Well, this is my first time stopping at Central.

Turn out - the place is china town.

Walked to Paddy's Market, passed by this place called - YHA - mainly for backpackers but look damn canggih wor!!!!! Wonder how much per nite. See I am believer of staying at reasonaly priced or even cheap but safe hotels/hostels. As I believe, when you're travelling, you're not going to be enjoying the ambience of the expensive room, are you!?!?!? If yes, then why come all the way for a vacation!?

Once we have reached the place, we attacked the food court first. I decided on the thai cuisine.... Noddle with 2 dishes - medium size cost me AUD7.90. Eh expensive leh. The Chili Chicken that I took - to my surprised was not even spicy but sweet instead.... not that great but at least the chicken was succulent. The other dish I opted for was the Ginger Toufu. Not to bad that one. But some of the carrots has black black rotting spots on it. Aiyaya.. see everywhere you go, chinese/asians are always prone to cut on the quality to make money! Disappointing isn't it.

Then it was to the floor where they had this Factory outlets for named brands such as CUE, ESPIRIT, CK, etc. I managed to get 3 pairs of cargo pants for my brother which cost AUD20 each. Which is a real bargain leh.

So far I have been very discipline. Most of the things I bought were for people with exception of 2 tshirts since I brought alot of long sleeves and now the weather isn't eventhat cold no more. I can do laundry but I still need enough to recycle around :P

Purchases so far.
1) 6 boxes of PODs
2) 2 large packets of minties
3) 4 kids tshirt
4) 1 adult tshirt for my uncle
5) 1 rose petals rosary
6) 2 tshirt for myself.
7) fridge magnet souveniors for my colleges at work. 2 packs.

Hmm.. i am proud to say so far I have been quite discipline with my own shopping hehee.

i still have brisbane to explore.

Also, since thin heels and pointy front shoes are in fashion - i dont like these sort so which means its good, I won't be buying any. They have those platform - cork heels mules/shoes. So far haven't found one that I have truely fallen in love with.! hehehe.
