The jukebox plays my song:
doctor's sorrow - 醫生的悲哀 {cpop}

Transforming into super duper ladies and saving the world is stressful and exhausting work, especially after spraining your ankle along the way ><" (How could i have been so careless? I was limping like mad. lol. And now, I can't seem to walk properly at the moment. ><" ) So what better way to regain energy and rest one's foot than to help one's self to pancakes and pizza? Making my wish come true, we decided to order a Devil's Delight and Italian Pizza (I do not think my diet is working... =.=" ).


Ooh la la!! We began to die of thirst from the uber-salty pizza and uber-sugary pancakes. Nonetheless, we enjoyed it like crazy whilst dying from squeals and laughter as we talked and gossiped away. Hahahah!! After finishing off our plates, the trio decided to walk around the Rocks, running from one old cottage to another, from one cobbled street to another, visiting cute and tiny shops and being mesmerised by what they had in store. Something different, something beautiful and something very intricate like The Candle Factory where we found delicate candles such as these which we concluded that we could never bear to use because they're just soo beautiful.



As we were walking down the streets, we found ourselves becoming intrigued with a narrow somewhat eerie and gloomy corridor. We found ourselves walking in and entering a small backyard with an old man painting very small artworks in the corner. Becoming silent and still, we decided to look at some of the artwork displayed on a wall, many which were nude paintings. It creeped Jenny out =p and she quickly darted off leaving Wendy and I quickly trailing behind her. However I regret not striking up a conversation with the old man for he looked decent and seemed to be a man with many interesting stories to tell, like the stories that you would sit at your grandfather's feet and listen intently to. Perhaps the next time I go to the Rocks or perhaps those of you that live in or should one day visit Sydney, can do that for me and tell me all about it. ^^


Roaming around and around, we found ourselves wandering into Sussanah's Place that Jenny longed to see. But alas, it was closed and poor Jenny was heartbroken so we vowed to ourselves that we will go visit when it is open., rightios? ^^ Jenny and I happen to love ancient history filled with its mystique and wonder and we found ourselves getting excited about this closed crumbled down site at the Rocks where historians and archaeologists excavate. *squeals* I'm such a nerd and as Jenny likes to put it, I'm so old school and I'm loving it. =D Snapping pics here and there, I was entranced by the Rocks and always seem to be. An interesting fact that Jenny told me was that the Rocks used to be the most dangerous and horrible places in Sydney in which it was filled with rats and drunks and violence. Isn't it funny how the Rocks is now one of the most exquisite and expensive places in Sydney? But it's no surprise, it's a beautiful place with historical importance afterall. And with the glistening harbourside as its delightful scenic view, who wouldn't love the Rocks??

And so we decided to enjoy the Rocks more by buying two scrumpilicious desserts from this cute small bakery hidden amongst the many small other shops and ate them next to the Opera House, looking out at the harbour, relaxing under the gentle breeze of the evening before heading off to home sweet home and taking a long hot shower.


And I just had to share this cute water bottle with you!! Isn't it the most adorable thing you've ever seen? So adorable that we filmed a priceless commercial for it. Classic. ^.~
