Day 2 of my cuz's visit to Perth:

Went Freo with cuz and his friend. Had Kailis Fish and Chips (Yummy) then walked around the city centre. Cuz isn't much of a shopper so we had coffee at Dome while he feasted his eyes on the local chicks. They just look so HOT.



Cuz and Minghui

Sat there till like 430 then headed to Kings Park to take some pics.

After that went over to East Perth and had some beer! Didn't do much as the next day Mike and Sam and I and other friends had to go abseiling in da Morning.

So today is Abseiling day. 2 city girls along with their adventurous friends headed off to Midlands (some granite quarry) for abseiling. They got up at 540am and headed off to their friend, Jay's, hse.

At about 730am, they finally arrived the destination. They climbed some slope up to the meeting point and was greeted by this HUGE ROCK that is about 50m high.



Yes its about 17 storey high.

After which we assembled and was briefed by the instructors. As usual, I am always the girl with most problem. My harness was too loose, my helmut didn't have the clip n I tighted something too tight and the instructor had to use pliers to undo it for me.

But the course was supposed to start from smaller rock then advance to the bigger ones.




Simple Life of Sam and Cel



We are suppose to attach ourselves to some rope and abseil down. It's not funny matter when we are afraid of heights.

The trick is you gotta lean all the way back and not keep ya body straight and keep releasing the rope in order to allow yourself to descend.

First try I took about 20minutes to descend? I think so. I was so scared. When I looked down, my hands just trembled. As you abseil down to one point, there is this huge gap which makes it impossible to take small steps. I had to kick myself off the rock and release the rope to descend further. But I had great fun doing it. For that whole solid 20minutes, I guess it's the first time I had full concentration on just one matter ---> How to get down and to keep in mind that I have to lean backwards and to keep my feet apart.



Yes it's that scary can.



After trying three times on the beginner rock. Sam and Cel decided that at least they did try to be adventurous but then Rocks are just not their best mates.

Though they are out-going, deep down, they are still are two simple girls living in da city and this is just not their cup of tea.


While we were having our ciggie break, we made a new friend!



Meet Larry the Lizard!



Naoko and Sam



The guys

They went on to do the highest rock but the weather was just too hot and wearing long sleeved ribbed black shirt makes matters worse. I felt so dehydrated and I just keep drinking so much water.

Reached home at about 3pm and was flat out. Slept till 830pm and went to northbridge HK's tea cafe for dinner.

Tmr is another day that I have to wake up early for the damn x-ray for my medical. I can't wait for Tuesday where I can just lay in bed and not be bothered by the alarm. AHHHHHHHHHHHH

Sunday sunday sunday! I can't wait for Sunday! Im going Sydney.... Yippie~



Something about Yvanna: I am always giving endless excuses of not meeting him. Not sure why too. I text him this morning telling him that my cuz extended his stay till Fri and I cant meet him but actual fact, cuz left this morning. Oh well, take one step at a time.
