Fortune

Woke up at about 11am. Didn't go for a morning walk in the end. Took a shower and met V at the post office. Sent the cd over to Aunt Jin. The padded envelope costs only A$1. Postage costs A$3.95 though. Went to the tram stop, took a tram and V went home. Even though we only met for about 15 minutes, it felt nice. Arrived at the meeting with Victorian AIDS Council 15 minutes late. Went on for an hour. Thereafter, I took a tram to the city.

Was told that tram 109 would only take me to victoria parade as there was no electricity thereafter and the trams were affected. A bus would bridge the service from there to kew. Took it to victoria parade but there were no buses to be seen. Even after asking the tram officers, they couldn't give me an answer. Walked for about 15 minutes before I finally saw ikea. I headed straight to the cafe and ordered 15 swedish meatballs, a princess cake and a bottle of orange juice. I was kinda surprised when I found out that ikea closes at 6pm from Sundays to Wednesdays and 7.30pm on Thursdays and Fridays. Back home, it's opened 10am to 10pm daily. Spent a bomb in there. A$165. Bought 2 sets of quilt covers and pillowcases, a mattress pad, night light, a 25w bulb for my existing lamp as my current one's only 7w and a colored bedsheet. Thankfully, after all the shopping, the tram services resumed. Took a tram home and upon reaching home, my floormate informed me that it's Robbie's birthday and they'll be out celebrating.

I put my stuffs down, freshened up, and left in my neighbour's car to north fizroy. Had a cup of hot chocolate. I preferred the one Nicholas made though. Was so much nicer. Came home, made my bed, changed the covers, sheets and put on the mattress pad onto my bed. Now online and blogging.

I'm going to sleep now. And I'm pretty sure that I'll have a good sleep, I hope. Hehe...

Nights peeps!
