Bloody a lot of pictures. Almost died editing them.
Perth Airport.
Sorry for the bird shit in this photo. Well, shit happens. Especially in Perth. There’s a higher change you will get wet by bird shit than rain. Turfing seagulls (i’m not sure if that makes an accidental pun. maybe not).
Thanks to Air Asia, i visited Australia for the first time. Flora, Derrick and I flew Air Asia X, the world’s first low-cost long-haul airline to Perth.
On the way back we were upgraded to XL seats, it was omfg awesome!!!
It is totally worth it to pay that extra few hundred bucks (though we didn’t. Lucky!). Super leg room and massive seats where you can roll around in your sleep.
Like business class liddat. Damn shiok ok.
And i love the new chat feature!!!
Imagine lo if you see a hottie who seems to be alone and single sitting a few rows away from you. Which happens quite often in the airport! Or airplane! And you feel like you wanna stick your head in the oven because you don’t have the balls to walk up to talk to him/her, knowing that he/she will be gone forever.
Air Asia X now encourages affair in the air.
Wa!! Got someone want to hook up with me!
hehe.
AUSTRALIA!!!
After checking into the hotel, we went to King’s Park.
What a hot dad.
And the byebees soooooooo cute! (I really still quite cannot tahan aussie accent.)
View from King’s Park.
Seriously, the grass is always greener/moon is always rounder saying is stupid. It only applies to Malaysians. Or like someone who milks camels in the desert.
The weather is damn crazy in Perth. Or Australia in general. If you ask me hows the weather (early autumn now), i honesly don’t know how to answer you. I can’t decide if it was hot or cold.
It was hot and cold. If it’s not Hot then Cold then Hot again, it’s like, hot AND cold. The sun was strong, you don’t sweat but it burns your skin. The wind is chilly. So like, you stand under the sun it’s bloody hot but once you go under the shades it’s bloody cold. So if you stand in between the shades and open top then you feel like Two face from Batman. What turf. If you get what i mean la.
Cute school kids!
Afternoon we shopped a bit at Forrest Chase.
*R*
See what i mean! Everyone in Perth has got fluorescent hair color!
Then we had lunch in this bar.
Flora strongly recommended LLB (Lemon, Lime and Bitters) it’s very nice!
This is Snaggers. It’s crocodile, emu and pork sausage. What turf.
SHOPPING!
This is where i got my Australian flag Bikini T shirt. Quite cheap.
Their bags very cute summore.
Flowers very kalerful!
Took bus to the whatever factory outlet. Wa the bus is free one ok! No wonder they pay so much tax.
Haha the dude behind us!!! 😛
At night, i met up with reader Cynthia. She came to my hotel and picked me up for dinner. We went to this one place everyone of you recommended (is it really that famous or is Perth really so small. Because if someone ask me, Ok please bring me to the nicest resutaurant in KL i will be like errr, please be specific or shut up.)
It’s Ciao omfg Italia!!!
Look at the crowd outside what turf. Like a night club liddat.
So normally on a Saturday night @ 7pm, you prolly have to wait 1 and a half hours, as this restaurant doesn’t do reservation. But with Cynthia and her almighty connection, we got in after 2 minutes of waiting. Jealous or not.
This is how packed it was inside.
I asked Cynthia to take photos for me and she did, but she said err, you might wanna take again. So i took a look at the photo wondering what’s wrong and this is what i saw.
Hahaha.
The portion was huge! But it was omfg nice!!!
The table was too small that it couldn’t fit everything.
Cynthia and food.
This is chili mussels. Tasted omfg yummy.
This is some king prawn pizza.
Tiramisu.
And the chef (owner?), he is so cute (i don’t mean in the original sense of the word, nor the… ok forget it).
Also, while halfway chomping down a mussle, someone went OMFG ARE YOU CHEESIE?!?!
Ok she didn’t exactly say omfg but. What are the odds!
I hate this pic because i look omfg ugly but i’m posting this to make Manzy happy.
I will skip day two because Fremantle would be in a separate entry.
DAY 3.
Tee from Supre. Teehee. I was really worried that i would fall sick because of the Hot Cold weather and bloody fish&chips. But thankfully i felt better the next day.
Ok. what to do on the third day? So we were deciding among, a few places. The sanctuary or chocolate factory or whatever, i forgot, were too far, we wouldn’t be able to make it back in time for Vfest. We consulted our friends and they only had one advice—Don’t go to the zoo.
It’s boring and is a turfing waste of time with all the signs saying “Under Construction” in front of most of the enclosures and watching a wallaby 10000 feet away and you can’t pet them and they look half dead and so on and so forth.
We went to the zoo.
We paid AUD19 for the entrance. And apparently AUD19 is the price to pay for not listening to good friends’ advice.
Perth zoo is a cheat. All we saw were like empty cages and enclosures full of grass and trees with no living creature in sight except maybe an imaginary ogre or two. Cheesus.
Now to put the AUD19 to good use, let’s play a game. Level of difficulty is in ascending order.
SPOT THE ANIMAL
No pun.
NO LA. THE END.
Thanks for playing.
never been there before… wish to go there once day….
😀
ahahaha the zoo!! omg i know hay it’s all… no animal-ly. And the weather, this time last year it’s cold and all but this year it’s different. Now it’s starting to rain so thank god you came when its hot and cold.

Ringo,
Looks like you had great fun in Perth!
“Imagine lo if you see a hottie who seems to be alone and single sitting a few rows away from you. Which happens quite often in the airport! Or airplane! And you feel like you wanna stick your head in the oven because you don’t have the balls to walk up to talk to him/her, knowing that he/she will be gone forever.”
That happens everytime I am in an airport. Sigh. . . I can only look, not ogle!
BTW, a translation might help with this one: “quite cannot tahan aussie accent. . .”
You cannot understand the aussie accent, do not like the aussie accent?
My manglish is still quite poor.
Great pictures, and I dispute your claim that any are ugly. The worst picture of you I have viewed was merely cute, the pic with Manzy does not have the best lighting, but other than that it is a nice picture of two friends. Sort of the standard quick on the scene vacation picture most people take when traveling.
Hmm, you found autumn crazy in Perth, then you will luv spring here in the north. Hot, nah, not for some time here. Warm, we might get to 16C this weekend! Up here that is WARM.
Considering that right now it is raining and 4C outside. Feels kind of coolish today.
May more safe and fun travels come your way!
David
Haha!! Take Air Asia!!! Thanks for your long comment agaiN!! Tahan means “stand” (not in the original sense) cannot tahan–cannot stand.
Cheesie,
Thanks for the “translation.”
I am slowly picking up some manglish.
My profession is Technical Writing as a Logistic management specialist.
Yes that is a mouthful to say.
The comments I leave here are my creative outlet.
Plus your site is great fun to follow!
david
I like that fact that you blog everyday, makes my day.. =))
^^ thank you!!
The pizza is huge…
…and Perth! Why didn’t you bring back some bomb ass (censored) for me? 😉
!! i no undertsand u talk. u are making choco taste better now is it.
Huai Bin,
That pizza would be a medium here in the States.
David
Chicago deep pan pizza! Yummilicious 🙂
Better than any pizza in italy, for that matter too.
Now i’m stuck in london nursing some from the local sainsbury’s 🙁
Megan,
The best pizza in the world, IMHO, comes from a little place in Lexingtion Michigan called Smackwater Jacks.
Located @ 7318 Huron Avenue, Lexington, Michigan.

I’m so proud of Zoo Negara

thats what i tot
i’m vanishing… =(
Hey Miss Tourist! Im glad you like it in Ciao Italia. 🙂
2 more week (ish) till my turn playing tourist in Malaysia. 😉
speak soon xoxo
haha miss tourist pula!! you should compile a list of things to eat in KL!!!
I went to Perth Zoo as well, felt cheated the lion and every single animal is sleeping .. I can’t even spot the elephants or giraffe. I only spotted a women wearing bra walking around the zoo. You should had went one day trip to Rottnest island, that’s like the most worthy place to visit in Perth if you love beaches. The chat function is cool, everyone was chatting and complaining how cramp was the plane ..
hahhaha the woman made the best attraction in zoo is it lol. ya lo a pity we didnt have enough time!
apparently the women took of her shirt because was freaking 39 C that day, Perth weather have greater mood swing than a girl that’s having her period.
awesome!
=)
wow.. awesome pictures! May I know what camera model are you using? 😛
Also, how did you feel the normal AirAsia X seat? Cause I will be flying to Melbourne soon! hehe..
G10! The normal one ah, i can just say once u have been to XL, normal one is meh. Hehe.
aiseh.. hope i will be as lucky as you to enjoy the upgrade 😀
I think like RM300 one way if im not mistaken, worth it!
she’s using a canon powershot g10, i think. great camera!
^^
Wah! I sudah jadi ‘armchair traveller’ just by reading your blog. 😛
Really nice pics u have. How much does the camera cost? I dun wanna ask at the shops (just in case my eyes will pop out when they tell me the price)
how do you ‘watermark’ your photos? All my frens are not computer savvy (all of them blur2 wan) .
Thanks !!! Reading your blog has become my morning dose of cheesy cheerfulness! 🙂
p/s many many eons ago, i went to the wildlife park in Perth. Took photo with a wombat in my arms. They dun let u take photo with koala cos they are pretty fragile. Abang obediently took photo of me n big heavy wombat. After taking photo, abang said ‘Dunno why u wanna take photo with that big ugly thing. You look so silly.’ *R*
It was RM1750 when i bought it. Or 1850. cant remember. Should be cheaper now. watermark eh. u can learn tutorials from youtube. super easy one.
HAHA u also know how to *R* !!!
Youtube got tutorial ar! aisay…paiseh d!
i learn the *R* from your blog lor. “Terima kasih, cikgu!’ 🙂
plan to come back to perth again? XD no? hahahaah.
if sponsored YESSSSSSSSS
Why the heck you want to come Perth again. I think Perth is the least interesting place to visit compare to Gold Coast and Melbourne.
Ask AirAsia sponsor you ticket to Melb la. Then VirginBlue to sponsor u from Melb to Hobart. I’l be there in May. Muaahahha….
no la u very beautiful. even if u do look like a wombat. a beautiful wombat HAHA!
u got fansee everywhere ard the country, like your own couchpotato service lo
o look, i is in ozzie! but yr not. heck ur not even in M’sia are u?
Looks like you had so much fun!! Perth seems so beautiful. You’re so lucky to be able to travel so much. I wonder where else this airline flies to. By the way, I LOVE your eyemask!! so darn cute.
Lol i have the same picture of Perth Airport! But without the bird shit la of course. 😛
omg, that ciao italia’s guy(owner), heh, i miss him, i mean the FOOD!!!!! grr
use to stay just 2 mins drive away from ciao italia (south perth)
i miss Perth =( *emo
wad the!!!.. You went to Perth..when i was away ..sienz..the guy in ciao italia speaks Malay by the way.LoL.He knows how to answer in Malay.ManzyyYy..Ur lucky u were in Ciao Italia the same day u met Cheesie..:P
ahh…. SUPRE…. I miss those wacky wordings printed on them…
“It was hot and cold. If it’s not Hot then Cold then Hot again, it’s like, hot AND cold. The sun was strong, you don’t sweat but it burns your skin. The wind is chilly. So like, you stand under the sun it’s bloody hot but once you go under the shades it’s bloody cold. So if you stand in between the shades and open top then you feel like Two face from Batman. What turf. If you get what i mean la”
hahah i know exactly what you mean! damn i miss perth so much i wanna cry dy T______________________________T
Glad you enjoyed your visit to our city..come again! 🙂
U did not just bought stuff from Supre…. O_O The quality of their clothes is so not worth the price unless it is less than 10 dollars. -_-“
End discrimination against men… totally agree with that, haha…
I believe Perth has similar climate as California. That should be good, what?
Wombat, Rambat… ah never know these animals. But I do know koala, of course ^^
Why the heck I don’t have the chat screen on My flight to Perth few weeks ago?! Only available for XL seat?
Should have listen to your friends about the Zoo… emm… well, i rather call it a botanical garden rather than a zoo. (-_-)
LOL, girl, see, there is nothing in the zoo right! should have gone to the aquarium instead… at least you can to see fish than grass. But you did see the orang utans? Perth zoo is well known for that, at least.
u look wearly cute. can’t wait 2 know u better or else I put my head over the oven to dry lo!
Oh yeah, you mentioned in other post and this about how we keep up with seasons and how to describe.
Australia – The days are hot as the nights are cold. So frustrating .
A majority of all the trends are set up by Supre`, Valleygirl and temt, every season they just bring out new clothes. Currently it’s like ‘sailor’ clothing Haha. Majority of the time it’s just shorts and a singlet. Summer jeans, a shirt and a jacket. Really simple. I wish we had Liz Lisa and stuff here 🙁
If you come Perth, go to Whiteman’s park, during school hours, you might get to hold an eagle~ and then in the city go on the jetboat!
