The Sydney Royal Easter Show

Woohoo! Just finished one exam few hours ago and that was Accounting 1A. The basic of the basics of accounting in uni. Even then it wasn't thaaat easy to me. I dunno, evbd was complaining about it when we came out of the racecourse. Yea we take our exams in the racecourse..:)

So with plenty of time, great internet connection (dunno how long this will last tho') and two more days to spare for the QMA and Micro exams this fri ,which btw I haven't touched.. it just looks like a chance for me to blog. Excuse the shortness of this post. Just decided to caption the pics cuz' I'm gonna head out to grab some food later..so ENJOY..

Basically yea, this is the 10th year that the Easter Show was held at the Sydney Olympic Park. Cool stuff eh ?


YiHong, Mark, Zolia, KXian and I took a bus to Central and off we went..
The ticket for entrance was 25.50 AUD wei.
And that summore cuz' I'm entitled to concession fees..

Being here, where the Sydney 2000 Olympics were held, makes you feel sooo small..
All the world's greatest athletes were here, stepped on the same ground as u did, just 7 years ago :)

It was something like a fun-fair kinda thing, plenty of food stalls like selling fairy floss and all..

A lot of toys(the huge ones) up for grabs..

All the toys that were being offered..But the games some of them were really tough..

Sth like the dodgem cars..but like boats and all..
Kids...
Sigh..

try to catch a duck and win somathose' big plushies but its impossible
did ya really think it was that easy ?

merry-go-round

u can make ur own bear if u hv nth else to do..

Now this doesn't look like a typical kids kindy...

I think the sheep were quite nice to touch.. But I didn't tho'..
A bit.. erm..
smelly..


Miss Photogenic Goat..


Woohoo! I've never seen a real pig before eva.
These are the pink ones u read and hear of them..

Remember the three pigs and one big bad wolf ? The straw house, the sth else,,..and the brick one as well :)

Oh random.. free tattoos ma.. Decided to get all identical ones

Are they goats or sth ? OMG I'm such a jakun O.o

Different coloured pigs..Lazy bums la this fellas. All day sleep nee.


So after watching the animals and all.., they have cooking classes, recipes etc on the best ways to cook ur meat. EHEH.

I've never even seen real cows before. They're huge.
Know what, I might actually have seen em' before at Zoo Negara or sth..

Hehe, huge cow testicles :P

This would be the Giant Slide in which u sit right up there and race down. Chiehhh, not that fun also :P

Go on rides like Hard Rock Could be more fun tho'...

They fling u up and down like that, but this wasn't really fun either. We took a more funner one but I didn't get a pic of that..
Lurv the adrenaline :D
This is called the Psycho Side Show or sth liddat..yea they do weird stuff like swallowing swords..
This one was bout the woman dancing there la..

Or some magic tricks..
Optical illusions more like..

Oh then for the night show, this was the stadium

yea its pretty nice round here at nite, only I didn't manage to get thaaat great shots of the area
somehow at night my wonderful DX-01 Leica lens is not that suited for night shots..
Or maybe im just the lousy photographer laa :(

I got this tho'..Quite hard to capture at night but I like the effects of the stadium lights. Packed and crowded like nobody's business weiii

They had a lotta stunts like motorbikes and all. Extreme Korruption.


From where we were sitting I couldn't get a good shot of the fireworks as well. That's the best I could do..:(

Eheh, after the show was over, it was empty.. heh, that was a better time to capture the magnificence of the stadium I felt..

Put it in a better light :)

Blur camwhore pics.. Oh well u think that easy meh ..:P to hold the cam with one hand, make sure evbd's face is in..Vertical camwhore photo summore :)
Oh I was wearing the black angel halo..

YiHong tried to take an emo shot but it didn't work out.. Lousy laa

Heh I took this one. Mark won Bart and YiHong won Homer.
YiHong pls remove ur big ass Homer from my room TQ very much..


And its not small btw, look at the size of the chairs that we sit in to judge :)
