Back in Aus

I'm back in Aus... after three good months in holy Spain. But I think only my body has reached Melbourne.. My brain is definitely still in Spain. Wandering around or even just sitting in the apartment in Girona.

I can't believe I actually spent 2 whole days just to travel to Melbourne. Reached Barcelona airport at 7 a.m on Thursday and reached Tullamarine airport in Melbourne at 10.30p.m on Friday. But it was ok for me because I used Qatar Airways. It definitely is a good airline especially for long distance. The shorter distance is average for me but the long distance plane is REALLY GOOD!! The plane itself is comfortable. Spacy and the seats are not too hard. It's even better when you sit by the window because you can lean on the sides. Totally comfortable..

Then there's the entertainment screen. So many different entertainment you'll never get tired. I actually managed to watch some of the latest movies like Grown ups and Marmaduke. So, all I did is sleep eat watch.. then sleep again. 14 hours of flight doesn't seem long for me.

As for the service, it's awesome. The air stewardess are all pretty and they smile all the time. Probably that's why they are pretty. Like they say, smiles improve one's look. And there are 3 meals altogether on the bigger plane. Pretty good meals especially the cream cheese cake for dessert. And throughout the flight, you can actually ask for fruits, sandwiches or drinks. Not bad right??

Qatar Airways also allow you to have a connecting check in of your luggages although the gap between two flights are like 6 hours. How good is that?? That's the thing I like because I don't have to take my luggage out, wander around the airport for a few hours, and then check in again... like AirAsia. The ticket price for Qatar is not expensive either. It's definitely not as cheap as AirAsia but it's reasonable.

I'm not promoting Qatar Airways or anything here. It's just my opinion

Anyways, I'm still settling down in Melbourne. I've gotten used to waking up early in Spain it's automatic for me here too. 6a.m and I'll wake up without the use of alarm. Hmm... I realise I've never used alarm at all too... in Spain as well. Although I sleep like a pig, somehow I can just wake up like that at the right time. I think I used the sunlight as my alarm clock. Once there's light, I'll wake up. I've tried closing all the curtains and as expected, I didn't wake up on time.

I don't really know what I'm doing here now though. No classes and still looking for jobs. Should have gone straight back to Malaysia or just stayed in Spain... I want to stay longer in Spain!!

Time to Say Goodbye to Spain =(

It's been quite a while since I've last updated. Been really busy with different things. I'm still in Spain but SADLY I'll be leaving Spain on Thursday which is in two days' time. OH WHY SO FAST!!!

Well, I've just had the best night in my life last night. My supervisors (since they have all supervised me throughout the three months and I've spent the most time with them); 4 of them, and my supervisor's cousin, which is also my housemate have actually organized farewell dinner for me. How lucky am I yea? It's good enough I manage to get a training in Spain but I also managed to have great great people around me, leading and guiding a noob wanderer in Spain. I think that's one of the reason why I love Spain so much.

And it's not just a regular dinner. It's a surprise dinner.. HAHA!! how cool is that!! I would be really happy if I had regular farewell dinner or lunch with them but again, they actually spent some time organising a surprise dinner. And it definitely is much easier for them because they communicate in a different language. But of course, with my eavesdropping ear and my nature of extreme curiosity, I did find out a little bit earlier before the dinner =D. But I'm still surprised because I don't know who would be attending.

So, we had dinner at this very famous Catalan restaurant in Girona.

Pictures of famous people who ate at this restaurant

This restaurant sure have got delicious local cuisine. Well, if you don't know how Catalan food is like, below are a few famous ones

It's not Catalan if there's no Jamon

That rounded thing is rice with pork blood

Underneath, there's baked potato with eggs

Botifarra or something like that... which I love very much!!

And of course all kinds of dessert to choose from.

I've always controlled myself from drinking too much but last night, I let myself enter into the next level of drinking. Well, it's Spain so it's stupid not to do it. Ok.. let me explain how people drink here in Catalunya. First, before dinner, we have a glass of beer. Then during dinner we had red wine.. three bottles of wine for six people in a meal. It's like half a bottle for each person. Then after meal, we had shots of some local alcohol which I don't know the name. I was given four shots. It's like a three course drink where there's appetizer, main and dessert drinks..

Beer and wine together?? Now who's the better drinker huh...

My first shot ever in my life.. =D

I don't know the name of this. It's vodka similar but locally made.

My supervisors and my housemate..THANK YOU!!!
Which one is my housemate??

And after dinner, I went to a bar with the rest of my housemates and had another bottle of beer. Then we're supposed to go to another place but I was already wasted so we headed home.

I'll be BACK IN SPAIN SOON!!! It wouldn't be the last!!

Celebrities and their plastics

For a long time I have been adoring these celebrities for being hot and successful. But recently I've found pictures of their before and after... and all likings just dropped. For some it dropped drastically while I still liked some of them. All I have learnt is that most celebrities are partially man-made after all. We can't find someone that's 100% good-looking...

First and foremost would be Megan Fox, the recent buzz for her total hotness.. I wasn't surprised she was plastic though because it was impossible to have such hotness without paying a certain price to go under the knife. I was just surprised on how different she looked. If she didn't change herself, I don't even think she'll get the part in Transformers

Her investment is worth paying for after all huh..

Then there is Giselle Bundchen, the highest paid model in the world. She too was partially man-made like the terminator. And again she had made a very good investment

Then there is Anna Faris. If she did nothing, she wouldn't be on screen. But I still liked her because she is a good actor. Her movies are all funny as hell..

Catherine Zeta Jones... One of hottest women on earth. I just envied Michael Douglas so much. It made me confused sometimes on what women wants. Anyways she looked so different before that. Definitely much hotter as she matures... like wine. I'm not sure if she's done much but I'm sure she had some injections here and there..

Jennifer Aniston would be the other bottle of wine. Definitely much better looking at an older age rather than when young. And of course I'm pretty sure she has some make-overs too

Demi Moore. This is one star who aged like Benjamin Button thanks to her surgeons

Michelle Pfeifer... A star whom I think resembles a goddess.. but now I have to categorize her as a plastic goddess

I would love her better if she maintains like the picture on the left. But unfortunately Hollywood wants people with narrow nose.

 And last but definitely not least would be Sarah Jessica Parker. Look at how much different she used to be.. But I do think she has overdone herself. If you watch Disaster Movie, you'll see that she's being recognised as a transverstite.. Haha funny..

Well, now I know... all these stars can only be seen but not to be touched. I laughed at those who believed Santa Claus was real.. but now I have to laugh at myself twice as hard for believing that those celebrities are natural.

But luckily, all these surgeries above are perfect surgeries... Some went terribly wrong and in the end they turn out worse than before..Really bad investment and a total waste of money..

I was just curious. Perhaps after many many decades when they have passed away, do you think they will fully decomposed or would they leave behind some plastics which would pollute the earth. Or maybe the next generation of archeologist will have some great findings... "Look what I've found, a fossil of Demi!!"

Lesson to learn.
If you want to get into Hollywood, you need to get yourself some plastics. But too much plastic will push you out of Hollywood
If you want to earn big bucks, you can venture into plastic making... or in other words, become a plastic surgeon
