The Time Vortex

Blousers!! (Isn't that what Goofy always says ?)

Is it Sept 26 already? Time really flies. This certainly adds weight to my Time Vortex theory I highlighted in my last post dated August. Basically the Time Vortex is some sort of invisible hole that exists in Melbourne. Precious seconds, or 'time' as we know it, leaks into that hole, giving us mortals the feeling that time really flies. I agree, time does flies, but in reality it 'flies' into the Vortex. I estimate that every year we lose an average of 33.5 minutes per year. This translates into 335 minutes lost in a decade, and indeed, time is something we must hold dear. Previous 'Time Vortex' advocates have failed to pinpoint the exact location of the Vortex. I believe I am the first to have prove that there is a Vortex right here in Melbourne, although I also strongly believe there are at least a couple more somewhere in the world for the Vortex effect to be felt worldwide.

Anyway, it is the end of the first week of my two week mid semester break. I would like to emphasize that I did absolutely nothing that bears resemblance to any uni work (such as assignments, revision etc). Today, the first sentence that comes into my mind when I look at the pile of work (not literal pile) that needs to be done is 'SH*T! That's a lot of work.' Yes, I guess I need to be starting sorting out my work tomorrow. I can hear people screaming at me: 'Procrastinator!!'

So what did I do so far in the break? I will tell you what I have not done, which is going for the $50 buffet somewhere in Docklands. Yes, I do not know the exact restaurant, but I will be following some of my floormates there. According to them, the buffet is fantastic. Let's see how the buffet will hold up in the eyes (or should I say in the stomach) of Jeric Lam, the well-known food worshiper.

I will let the pictures d the talking. Here are some photos from what I did over the break.

1. Attended the Tesselaar Tulip Festival

2. Visited the Great Ocean Road (more pictures in my Facebook album, 117 more photos in my personal album in fact)

3. Went to South Melbourne beach. Actually wanted to go to Albert Park, but got lost after we reached Andrew's Burgers. By the way, many people consider Andrew's as the best place to get your burger fix in Melbourne. I admit, the burger tastes great. No picture for this one, all in Facebook.

4. Even celebrated Mooncake Festival here in Melbourne. Not surprisingly, only Asian groceries and bakeries sell mooncakes.

5. What esle? Of course I eat. The first picture below is my roasted beef chop with salad, hard-boiled egg and boiled potato (not in picture).

This second picture is my salmon pasta with tomato sauce.

P.S. I actually wanted to prepare more of what I consider 'elaborate' food, but I gotten lazy and just stuck with my standard cooking.

Of course that is not all I did, but most probably the more notable ones. With the Time Vortex lying around, I wager that my next post will be not anytime soon. Cheers.
