Like the previous post, this entry had been pre-typed.... so only those that ive just added in will be in red~

As some of you might have known, our trip was accompanied by Bryan's dad and A Marie.

Bryan's dad and Aunty Marie stayed for about a week at Novotel (St Kilda).


He had booked the room much earlier thus they didnt sleep in our spareroom till the last week of their stay.

Had also intended to drop by the mountains for some snowboarding action which is why they didn’t booked for the room throughout their stay in Aussie..

but my NOT JUST 1 DAY orientation had to ruin it.

My school had to split up to like to 3days for whatever reason. The first day, Tuesday, 9th June (as scheduled) is like a full session till the afternoon. Subsequently, Wednesday & Friday session was like 30mins or less sorta thing. To book for our timetable and also to take photos for our student I.D. in which I looked so HORRIBLE.

Ok. Back to the hotel.. Some photos to share:

The room:

(We managed to upgrade to a better room Executive Queen Spa Room for free!!)




the spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa (didnt get to try though. :( too busy to try!!)

The lobby:

and FINALLY... our favourite spot:


hee. That explains why.

It really took very long for an internet to be setup!! Their customer service is sooooo freaking slowwwwwwwwww.

Firstly because our apartment is new, which is why we will require a telephone line for an internet.

We have chosen this “Naked Line” which means no telephone line is required. But stupidly, they will still need for us to set up a telephone line to do the FIRST connection, then we can cancel that telephone line.

How dumb is that right?

Furthermore, THERE IS NO FREAKING UNLIMITED INTERNET PLANS!!!!! They go by the usage and it doesn’t go by hour, minutes, seconds, ...

They charged by the bandwidth received :S So like if you are downloading stuff, etc, you will ended up using MORE bandwidth.

And usually they have this peak & nonpeak. For example, if you apply for one that is 50kb, in which we did, they will split like 25kb for peak and 25kb for nonpeak. The nonpeak timing is something like 1am – 7am -____-

Yup. So because of the internet, we squeezed in the hotel room together with Bryan’s dad and Aunty Marie.

The hotel is pretty neat (as you can see from the photos that I have uploaded above). They have provided apples at the reception (for only few days because they aren’t any left 3days later)

Oh they have this as well:

Cute right the packaging? And NO. It is still left there on the bar counter in the room.
