Passion or Pest-ion?

Passion, which or i would rather say.. who is the one creates the warmth, joy, happiness, memorials, affections, sorrow, dissapointment, amazement and much more of our mother emotions. Passion, who i referred as a living soul inside everyone of us, often convince us to make certain decision tracked by our subconsciousness and our own inner will. However, can we control it or limit it to a certain invisible space boundary?

The inner fire is often burning meeting something or some certain events, it will ignite the start of the rather huge explosion of feelings inside the shield covered boundary. The container cant really contain the pressure and the energy formed.. which will cause the owner to burst.. . the thing is, can the owner stand it all alone .. or bursting it to someone that can take the damage? Often the owner took the whole lot of damage shielding every piece of damage from leaking out of the area, protecting every single bit of creature around.

How hard is to keep the pressure in YOURself not letting it out? The dynamite might burst one day.. will it survive the power of passion? Sometimes, i wondered if passion is created for a positive purpose or the other way round? to challenge us?

The long standing tree trunk is trying hard and strecthing his roots long to reach someone near .. however, miraculously they often avoided or dodged the approaching roots. The sun is shining bright enough.. to burn and dry himself up.. and he has yet to reach for a water source. Could the determination poured in by Passion enough to last till next rainfall?

Im Tired.

Fish & Chips & Wine

State of Wine.. South Australia is a state of wine.. to be exact.. the vineyards are all around Adelaide but unfortunately we have yet to visit one.

Last Sunday, there is a Food, Wine and Music Festival along the Norwood Parade. It is actually just a coincidence that we went there were to grab some fish & chips. Thus, we are lucky enough.

There are a variety of wine and the souvenier wine glasses are sold at $4.50 each. In order to buy wine, you have to purchase one of the glasses. The glasses are nice and worth for a collectable item. There are bands playing rock, jazz and country music. Our fish & chips trip turned into a such meaningful visit to The Parade, Norwood.

Roaming Adelaide

Had been a busy week with classes and stuff.. books buying.. which is killing.. as you pick any reference books listed, they simply costs you like $100 at least. Its killing man.. to make it worse, some books are limited editions, so we have to buy it as there are only like 2 copies in the library Reserves. Blah.

To take some time off, joined some christian church movement trip to some wildlife park in Mount Cleland. Erm.. no.. im not a christian but we met a guy on the plane who is friendly and intro us to the gatherings.. since this is okay.. we just joined in.. why not huh? Public transport is used to get there and the entrance fee to the wildlife park is $8.50 for student rate, and the BBQ lunch is $3.50 which is just fantastic.. theres sausages, lamb chops.. NICE!

Well, we are expecting koalas and Kangaroos or ducks or maybe swans.. but.. we was greeted with this ....
After a short stroll, we reached a concrete surrounded area with some trees.. and the leader or aka tour guide told us.. "here's the koala.. take photos all you want.." but... to our surprise.. we saw this THING..

We were conned.

But we did saw what we were promised after a while of walk through the cold breeze blowing towards us..

The kangaroos are the heaven here.. well, erm, almost? haha. got into the fields.. fed the kangaroos and played with them.. haha how? well, i took a close up shot by faking the 'feed' lol.. check these pics out.

Mount Lofty Summit is a place worth visiting. Overseeing the whole city of Adelaide from a distance.. and the whole plains.. the feeling of overwhelming is just.. great.

Lunch TIME! stamoch started to sound.. and the perfect weather and timing to have a BBQ lunch! YUM!

There is an ending to everything.. thus.. this great trip ends after our lunch.. and the half an hour bus ride home is tiring.. everyone was exhausted.. but worth the effort.

COme to ADelaide!
