Barry Trotter





ok .. maybe i meant Harry Potter ... picture this ... 8:59am on a saturday morning ... hundreds of harry potter wacko's in Border's Melbourne Bookstore waiting in a snake shaped line through the book isles yelling 10 .. 9... 8 ..7 .. 6 ..5 ..4 ... 3... 2... 1 YAY~!!!! YES .. i was yelling that too ... got caught up in the moment of the harry potter countdown ... i think all up i waited 1hr to get my hands on the lastest hp novel ... only to find out from jenny that i could have gotten it for the same price minus the huge line at myer that morning ... BUT .. myer wouldn't have given me a free ballon PLUS an owl soft toy =) ...



Oh yeah .. also finally took barry up on his invite to play pool at his golf club which kinda turned out to be a cookin session where we kinda abused the fact that barry was closing for the night and the last person there .. so we kinda helped ourselfs to the huge fridge to make curry ... chicken parma (yes stav .. a parma) ... chips ... onion rings .. satay sticks etc .. and yeah plus the bar too ... ... OMG .. felt like i was gonna explode since i already had a beautiful dinner made by my lovely gf prior to heading to baz's golf club which is conviently located somewhere in the woods/country .. yes .. it was impossible to find.. baz was try'n to guide me there on the phone while i was driving and when he asked what i see to gauge where i was .. i replied " ummm ... looks like farm land to my left .. and i see 3 huge towers that look like silo's on my right" ... hahah other helpful hints baz gave was like " look for kangaroo crossing signs" haha ....


IKEA buddy Daniel returned home to Vietnam on the same saturday morning ... we had a good bye dinner for him on wednesday at a crown buffet ... hmmm yeah .. the food wasn't great ... but it was fun to catch up wif him before he leaves ... Daniel and I started IKEA at the same time around 2 yrz back ... and we both had a fair share of IKEA forlift accients heheh ... see ya buddy...


In unrelated news .. AKBLUE 2 wins in a row .. heheeh hopefully this will put us in the top 4 haha .. this game marked Cuongs return to the lineup ... and made zero impact with a HUGE AIR BALL on his first shot ....at least we won right ??? haha ...

RESTURANT REVIEW:

friday night dinner took mica and I to Wagamama ... ended up paying $60+ plus for dinner and the gyoza's weren't even half as good as the ones we made ourselves... hmmm i had the chilli ramen (not filling .. but nice soup base) and gyoza's (crap .. as stated above) and mica had the chicken katsu curry (ok ..the chicken wasn't as dried up as other places) and the chilli squid (weren't that great.. i just ate it cos i was still hungry after my food) ... but i think this kinda sums up the place pretty well ... when mica asked for more red pickles for her katsu curry .. we had to pay EXTRA~!!!! ... yes .. very disappointing .. the only thumbs up is that they offered me a membership card when i was paying ... and told me that i get a free meal on my bday... hahaha ..
