I'm not a morning person!!

.
Yes, I was up till 4am last night, watching Korean drama. Darn, I'm such an addict! :( I've got to stop this shit once the semester starts again. (which is in 2 days' time!) . We kinda made plans to go to Mount Dandenong this morning, but nothing was confirmed... so I kinda thought that the plan fell through.

And then...

This morning @ 9.20 am, Ade called me like... 4 TIMES! before I heard the phone and answered it with my super-sleepy-semi-awake voice:
"Yes? Hello?"
"Girl, you need to wake up now. I'll be at your place by 10.30am"
"What?!? Are we really going?"
"Yes, now get ready. Make sure you don't go back to sleep"
"Oh... wokayyyyyy"
I answered hesitantly, thinking whether I should just not go, and get back to my lovely bed, and continue my sweet dream.

I then napped for another 5 minutes, before decided to drag myself to shower and freshen up. Ming Yen obviously stood us up, because he was up till 6-ish playing DOTA! *Hmph* (You owe us bubbletea!!) Surprisingly, Chee Yoong made it, even after a late night out clubbing.

Anyways, I made it on time =) Ade came to pick me up, and we drove up to the Dandenong Ranges! Luckily I was all bundled up! It was freezin' cold today! But as we got there, I knew that it was worth waking up early for! The view is superb. The air is fresh and crisp!

Ade & Mei on 'The Wishing Tree' // A stone compass // Beautiful English Garden // JL, Ade $ Mei at the Possum House

The whole lot at the lookout // Mei @ the lookout // YongShen, CheeYoong & Ade // Magnificent view (you can see the Austin Hospital from here!) - yes I'm proud of it *bleh*

More Rhododendrons // @ the lake // Funny looking trees // forgotten the name of this flower *shy*

Cartoony mushroom // The view from Serenity Point // A walk in the park // Giganto-hugely humongous-bigggg mushroom


More pretty hydrangeas // Us, protecting our eyes and cold lill hands // The gang @ the Sanctuary // More flowers?

View from the top // Bonding with nature // The whole lot // Pretty in pink

All-in-all, I had a fantabulous time bonding with nature. I can't believe I did so much of it this Easter! But I love it... Maybe it's the fact that I haven't been living healthy recently. So, a little bit of walking and physical activity is perhaps good for me! Hehehe.

And saving the best for last... obviously, I had to reward to poor lill stomach after a whole day of walking around. :) We had afternoon tea at the famous Miss Marples. The scones were really yummy! Or maybe, I was just really hungry! Hehehe... a must-try if you do plan to head to Mount Dandenong.

My Easter hols have been great, but sadly, it's coming to an end... One more day, and counting... Boohooo!!!!

Kelly: It sure was heaps of fun! Lotsa pretty flowers, and a fabulous garden! Perfect to be shared with your significant other. Too bad I don't have one. Hehehe.

Someone once told me, that when he gets old, he'd still wanna be sitting on a bench in a park, holding hands with his loved one. And being there, really reminded me of those words.
