Gippsland

G’day guys! Hows it going? :P

Haha..i’ve coped with some of their common language used in conversation… okey, so sorry for the long silence in my blog… I juz too busy to update this blog. So plz bear with me yea

So here I go, to Gippsland. The place of extreme quiet yet beautiful. This suburb is located in Victoria and can be accessed through road and railway… to get here, u can buy a ticket to the nearest city, Morwell station which is 2 hours from Melbourne. The current price is AUD13.70… as I said, the current price is that much, meaning that the price is definitely not constant. I guess, one year ago, the ticket to Morwell costs u AUD13 only but now it has climbed up 70cents bcoz of nobody-knows-why. Hehe

Okey, we shall not waste our time here, pal! Umm, this city offers u nothing except an ease of mind and a layback lifestyle. It’s great place for old folks to rest in peace and for someone who doesnot really like a hectic lifestyle… the place is so quiet at night (like nobody’s living here except you alone). Trading activities normally stops around 5pm onwards, and usually large mall and supermarkets extend their trading hours until 7pm or sometimes 10pm. The kids will start their day at 8am (I guess) straight till 3.30pm. they will take their meal twice in the school they attend. unlike in Malaysia, the school usually habis in the afternoon. Afterall, I believe both systems have their pros and cons. One thing need to be aware in Australia is that their kids’ mind develop so fast. So to those who’s thinking of living in aussie and wana have kids there, u better watch ur kids extra-carefully bcoz u don want their mind to be corrupted so fast. Bahayeee…

Okey lets talk more bout Gippsland. This place is mixed with range of mountains and vast area of lands. The scenery is sooo gorgeous that u feel like u don wana leave the place forever. Rule of thumb, buy a house at the top of the mountain and u can see the surrounding develop in 20 years time (only if u chooses to settle down here). Owh ya, the closest town to Gippsland is called Morwell. Only a few mins of driving and u’ll arrive at the small town. U can get ur everyday’s basic stuffs here at an affordable price or if u want even lower price, u can wait for Sunday Market which is only open on Sunday! Hahaa. Yknow what, eventhough this place is small and quite rural, they have produced their own newspaper! How cool is that,huh?! Afterall,I think the ratio of human to cow is 1 to 1. Haha.. yeah, u can see cows everywhere u go in Gippsland! So for those who never seen cows before, Gippsland is the best place to go during holidays!

All in all, I respect Australian for some reasons, they r clean, disciplined, and they care for the pedestrians so much till they will to stop if they see someone’s crossing the road in front of them.
