x alisa and i went to a $2 peepshow yesterday. the type where you go into a booth and put in a two dollar coin and look through some plexiglass. it was a really exciting prospect until we got up a dodgy flight of stairs then went into the booth. said booth had a waste basket overflowing with crumpled tissues. no prizes to who guesses what is in the tissues. miss $2 stripper was really uninspired. all she did was lie on a circular platform thing and play with herself. she was huge. her boobs were easily the size of your head. anyway the gawking ended quickly. i guess the $2 doesnt go a long way. they should call it wank-n-go.

x we've also been going to these two phenomenal viet places in the city for lunch/dinner. the beef noodles are marriage material. i've also had krispy kremes which i would like to report, are very underwhelming and overrated. i didnt get that near religious experience so many people like to wax lyrical about. alisa got sick from gorging on 6 in a short period of time though. does that count?

x shopping is mad expensive but this duty free outlet place on spencer st saved my life. nine west, witchery and country road and many more. a lot of tacky forever 21 rubbish everywhere though.

x i have a love hate relationship with the weather. its not like i've run out of things to talk about and i've to resort to talking about weather but it is really really lovely. until i start bitching and whining about how cold it is. then it's lovely no more.

x i come home on wed. i'm starting to get that depressing, nagging feeling that i'm going to miss this place although i've not done much here but shop and eat. but i'll miss the food, weather and ogling the ornate grillwork on some of the houses here. everyone painted this really crime-ridden, dangerous picture for me of melb before i came but it's really ok. but there are the really obvious hints that crime is prevalent all around, like when you see the cashier at 7-11 having to stand behind these steel strings or to hear of fast food outlets having security guards outside at night.

x the 3 hour time difference [we're ahead], really annoys me. when we go to bed at like 1am, i cant help but think, shit it's only 11pm at home.

the textual siege.
