Fate.





Despite being a Gemini whom is usually indecisive and wanting both choices at once, I could probably be one of the outcast. And perhaps that originality of Gemini qualities only applies when I am doing my shopping, unable to choose the colour of my clothings or bags. But when it comes to things regarding to feelings and important choices of life, I would ask myself at least twice about what I want.

I often ask myself questions about things that complicates me. I don't want anymore mess and unnecessary complications which brings no good in the end. So I often search for an answer quick to know where I want to stand along the decisions which have to be make in the end. 

Thus, I always know what I want and what I don't want.

I don't know if my decision is right this time because the previous time had me suffered way too much that I've imagined. I never regret my choices and if it ends me up in sorrows, I will gladly take it. There is a concrete wall forbidding me to put myself in that kind of situation again. And I don't like to be in the position where I've let someone know my thoughts and wait for their answers to my questions and thoughts. I know what I want and I often, wish the other party feels the same. 
But, they are not me - and they are not obligated to feel the same as how I do. 

I don't know though. 

I don't know if it's right to take the first step into this place which either brings me to heaven or hell. Either it brings be to the best or the worst. Thinking about it makes my stomach turn. Despite there is no fear, there is still wondering because I haven't hear what I desire to hear. And perhaps it will never come.


Standing inbetween the line of  'if it's fated, then it will happen' and ' if you want it, then go get it' , I'll choose the first one. I've chose the second one twice and it breaks me up badly. My heart couldn't take the risk for the third time. 


Just like gambling - just that the chips I put on the table are my feelings. If I win this round, I win. If I lose, then there is nothing left. 

 There is no explanation because it is just fate. It's fated that how things are supposed to be.

Victoria #4


#1

Look at how my sweater blend into the land of grass. 

Perhaps it is true that the grass is greener on the other side. Rephrasing that, it must be greener in Australia. But doesn't mean I love my country any less. #proudtobeamalaysian .



#2

Woke up with super bloated cheeks which usually bothers me alot because I will look horrible in pictures. But my mood was ridiculously good that I don't really care. 

Squeezing my cheeks and realizing how soft it is - only when it's all bloated. 

Drink a glass of water before you sleep, people. Don't be like me. TT



#3

Beautifully designed cup to fix my caffeine of the day. 

Bought a cup of Cappucino in Market Lane Coffee , which is located right beside Victoria Market down the street. 




#4

Queuing up for Borek which is pretty famous as a quick on-the-go breakfast in Victoria Market.

It was sad that I didn't truly explore Victoria Market. I heard that they are hidden gems in this Market which I have missed out. Oh well, at least I had Borek. haha.



#5

It feels really nice walking on the streets , taking a bite of Borek and holding a cup of coffee in hand which I always have a mini heart attack whenever I never grip it properly. I really don't want to spill the coffee over the streets because it's a waste , and the streets in Melbourne are really clean. I couldn't even find a little rubbish and the things which is on the floor all the time are probably wilted leaves. 

I couldn't stop taking picture of the cup ; because my love for the words is beyond. lol.





#6

Me pigging out and had my footsteps slow down because I had trouble biting the lamb off.

Even the background is so pretty. 

If I were to take pictures by the streets in Malaysia, I'll probably already be sweating my ass off.



#7 

OOTD.



#8

Well, I was waiting for the tram and I think it's an opportunity to take pictures.



#9

Here is Lilian and her donuts , hahaha.



#10

After 20 minutes tram , we finally reached the zoo!

I don't even know why I suggested to pay Melbourne Zoo a visit either. I don't even go to Zoo Negara in Malaysia to look at the Pandas. Perhaps the weather really mattered too much for me. 

The weather in Melbourne is just nice for this. It's really adorable to see cute kids running around , and some of them are even on a school tour to the zoo where the teacher explain to them about the habitat of the animals. 

When I was in primary school, my teacher just tell me what animal it is and move on to the next one. -.-



#11 

hello there.



#12


#13

That's a seal! 



#14

And I can never missed out any opportunity to take pictures anywhere. 

*insert an inspirational quote*



#15

Ridiculously cute penguins in a group. 

So adorable . 



#16

I find this picture of zebra artistic. It somehow brings out the lonesomeness in the picture.



#17


#18


#19

I have no idea why I took a picture with the giraffe...



#20

See the baby elephant outfit! So adorable, no?



#21

Look at the pout.. Did your heart melt?

Because, my heart did.

Even the kids are cuter over there! This is because they could dress up in exaggerating outfits like this. If any parent dress up their child like this in our country, it'll be child abuse -.- You don't want your child to get a heat stroke. 



#22


#23

This picture needs to be up here because I find it artistic without having any idea why. It looks pretty to me.



#24

Birds with tiger stripes.

Someone tell me the name?



#25

I told her parents that , their child is beautiful.

It send butterflies to my stomach when I see them look at each other and smile proudly as if they had invented something so great. I feel glad that I've said something like that tho. It makes me feel happy when I see them happy. 

Little things, matters.



#26

Slowly walking...



#27

to the other half!

Lovely love story , lol.



#28



#29

Stared at the kangaroo for a while, and it didn't move. 

Just realized that the animals are being really lazy. They barely move at all!



#30

My anaconda don't. 

How about red butts? 

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.



#31

Thinking about life. 

You see what I meant by the animals are being lazy?

Noone is moving ):


#32



#33

I forget that it was who's idea to lay on the grass. I'm glad that I did that because it's something that I'll never do back in Malaysia due to the fear of having dog poop on the grass or red ants crawling into my clothes. 

The grass was slightly wet but I don't really care because it was too comfortable. If I'm in the position for another ten minutes, I could easily fall asleep and take a nap. 

It was sunny but not enough to shine in my eyes and make it hurt. 



#34

Squinting my eyes because I can't see myself , lol. 



#35

Lilian and I with the background filled with little flowers.

Loving this picture a lot!



#36

Let me end with this group picture of us that I insisted to take. 

I have no shame when it comes to photos , and that's why you guys are all entertained!



xx.

Ril's Bangsar.


Taking a break from my Melbourne posts because I need time to compile the pictures. I took around 1k+ pictures just in a week , and that's after I deleted those that couldn't be seen. 

Back to two months ago ( woah, so long ago lol) , I visited Ril's Bangsar with Kev's recommendation of their good steaks. So we decided to head there to give it a try , just right everyone leave. They have two outlets , so we chose to head to the one in Bangsar because it's nearer to us.



Romantic interior with dim lights .

They have live band upstairs too but it's depending on which day. I visited Ril's on a Wednesday. 



With the complimentary starters consist of oat buns which I presumed to be and four different kind of butters which I am madly in love with. Normally they just serve one kind of salted butter, but these four kinds gives your taste buds a surprise if you consume it with the bun. 

Now, the quote ' keep things simple seem legit' .

My favorite one is vegetarian one - which is in green colour that reminds me of algae . haha.


and,
here comes the main of the visit.




Porterhouse steak.

Ordered a 1.2kg Australian Porterhouse for the three of us which is price at RM19/100g .

I think it was really good. I am never a fan of steak because I am lazy. Yes, I am lazy to cut and I cut it very loudly as if I'm cutting the plate below. The texture of the steak was really fine , with the gravy comes with it give the taste another star for the steak. I can't say that this is the best steak I've tasted cos' personally, I love Fuego's one better. It meet up to my expectation though. 

You have another choice of ordering Tomahawk with the price of RM24/100gm and perhaps, that will be my next try if I were to revisit Ril's. 


We also order more sidelines to go with our steak ;



Truffled Mash Potato at RM14 ;
which was so good. 

My love for potatoes is really strong, and I like how soft the potatoes are. They don't have a gravy to go with it and it's already awesome. Perhaps the butter and milk make a way out. 



Spinach at RM 14.

I never had spinach cooked with such mild gravy. It's not soup, but gravy. I think it's really good and of course, healthy. It tasted exactly like the butter I had which go with the bun as starters.



Sauteed Mushrooms at RM16

I love this the best. Unfortunately, the portion is a little small. Why do they always serve mushroom in such small portion? ):



Steak can never go well without red wine , so we ordered a bottle. The price range between the wine is from RM90-200 ; at your choice. We chose Cabernet because sweetness is more important than anything else. 



You can see that dinner was good. 



Half tipsy even before we start to dig into the goodness. 

To think back, it was definitely a good night. 



Definitely growing up together since we are primary kids. Thanks for paying the bill, Kev. haha.





It was a great night with good food. The wine was just fine , but it didn't matter since it's just something that goes well with the main. The music they play works with the theme of jazz which made the whole environment more comfortable. 

It was a great dinner at Ril's. 




signing off with my tipsy red face.

love xx.
