A long long day
It is a long long day, I am very tired after it, and also feel sick, let me tell u in a minute.....
We are going to see the host grandson playing the basketball match, but he is sick (He had got a tenperature, as I remember!). But we still go there to support his school, finally, they win!
And then we go to the recycling centre to take some photos about the presentations, the policy is better than Hong Kong million times!! But I know Hong Kong did not get enough place so .....
I want to go the school to do more research, so I call my host to drive me there. When I arrived, I see the library closed for perpare the next sem that will start next day. So i have to walk to home! I walk 30mins!!!! O my god!!!@@@@ I come back home with a whole wet body, since it was raining that day.
After that we go to the shopping centre, I have buy many things there, there are many different flavour gum, so I buy many!! And my friend buy a bag of chocolate there, to give the party hoster tonight, which I will talk abt it later. But i don't need to buy since I have some Chinese present, which my Mum said it will be useful in there, so I proved she is experienced!!
We go to party tonight, it is in Wing's host family. we all go there, include Ms. Lam.
We have a lot to eat there, and I was drank a fruit punch, it is very ...... And i go to the toilet for 15 min!!!
The party
After that, we played "True or 'there??'". I only loss one time, the punishment?! Someone know, u can ask them, HAHA. After that, I go to play the boardgame, it called 大富翁.

Toilet day
I have waked up at 9 am to going to toilet for the last night punch! What;s...
And I do the Preparation for the Newspaper reporting, this is very cold morning... only 7 degree clecius!

Swimming pool
Langwarrin, Australia
We go to the swimming pool to see her granddaughter swim, it said there will be a water-conditioner, but the water is still very cold, so I am surprised and think they are strong....

Asian? 廣東話?
We go to the Frankston South Sport Centre to play sports(Badmin and Basketball). I have seen a lot Asian there, some of them knew my language also, so we played ball like in Hong Kong. I have gained 5 pts there! But I have to rest since I get hurt when I am tackling!!
After I have rest, I played Badmin, we wins a lot, and we go back home to make to dinner!

Oral presentations
G'day mate!
Today we have the oral presentation, I was the 13th,which is the second-middle. I think I was okay, but not the best time I have(compare to myself), If I can remember all the script, it will become the best, I have just remember half of the present. After the present, I was 'release', Karen give me a congraulation, I am very happi abt all.
we learnt the Australian slang in the Afternoon, there are many, like wt a said in the header "G'day, mate", means Hello, my friend. Some o fthem are easy to remember, so I will use it later in the daily speaking, but not use in HKCEE.

Melbourne City
Melbourne, Australia
G'day mate
I have a gd day and i spend a lot there!
Kenneth and I
We go to the Melbourne Observation Deck first
Melbourne observation Deck
the lift is very fast! only 38 second, so most of us feel ...(u see it)
We have gone to the top floor and have sight-seeing, I have take lots photo and take a lot leaflet!!
Melbourne
We go to the Federation Centre later, I wanna to go there when the FIFA final, but I was so tired, so I stayed at home. The place there is very new and quite beautiful??
Federation Square
We have gone to the Botanial Garden there, I talked to the teacher and I have learnt a lot abt Melbourne.
Then, we did not go to the St Paul's Cathedral but St Patrick's Cathedral(St Doy?!XXXXXXXXD). It is the biggest church in Melbourne, When I gone there, I think abt The movie-The Da Vinci Code. It is very interesting and I gd experience for me.
St Patrick's Cathedral
After that, we go to the Victoria market, we only have a few time there, it is not enough. I cannot buy anything there. ONly but some candies in the 'Suga'. It is very gd.
We go to the China Town and our teacher miss us. But we still continue our journey. I have buy a koala there, it is very cost, it costed 20 AUS, and I have bought some Nuguet there, since I ahve to buy some for my family.
We go to shopping and the AFL shop the goods there is very expensive, since they have a higher living standard and the GST, so Hong Kong is better in this time.
We go to see the fire show at night and eat ice-cream, I was impressed there, it is very unbelieveable!!
The night view there is very gd. We go home by the train.

Graduation Ceremony
G'day.(mate)
Today is the last day to school, it was quiet emotional! Some of us cry in the ceremony. I don't, but some do. Let me tell u the day first.
The boys go to play ball games in the gym and the girls making the laminton with our teacher in the classroom. After that, we have a rehersal of the ceremony, and we were trained to sing the songs - My love, Westlife and Today, Gigi Leung. THey are all touch, let see.
My Love-- FROM:http://cn.clyric.com
an empty street an empty house
a hole inside my heart
i'm all alone and the rooms are getting smaller
i wonder how i wonder why
i wonder where they are
the days we had the songs
we sang together oh yeah
and oh my love
i'm holding on forever
reaching for a love
that seems so far
#(chorus)#
so i say a litter prayer
and Hope my dreams will take me there
where the skies are blue
to see you once again my love
over seas from coast to coast
to find the place i love the most
where the fields are green
i try to read
i go to work
i'm laughing with my friends
but i can't stop to keep myself from thinking oh no
i wonder how i wonder why i wonder where they are
{repeat from #(chorus)#}
to hold you in my arms
to promise you my love
to tell you from the heart
you're all i'm thinking of
i'm reaching for a love
#(repeat chorus to fade)#
Today-- From:http://www.hkcoolsite.com
?? ?????????
???? ????
TODAY WHILE THE BLOSSOMS
STILL CLING TO THE VINE
I’LL TASTE YOUR STRAWBERRIES
I’LL DRINK YOUR SWEET WINE
A MILLION TOMORROWS
SHALL ALL PASS AWAY
ARE WE FORGET ALL THE JOY
THAT IS OURS TODAY
Repeat # #
That's all the songs, touching??
After that, our ceremony start, out host family come late since I call them to bring my charger of my camera, I don't get enough memory for my camera, only 256 MB. Fortunately, The ceremony is short.
After that, we sing the songs and taking photos together, many of those cried, like Cathy, Wing......

After that, we go to the next classroom and take the photos with the Japanese girl, I were very nice and like to take photos with us, I haven't take since my camera don't have batteries..... Never mind... Doy have.
We go to the supermarket first to but some more things back to homeland first. I have buy a lot chewing gum. I wanna to buy ??? at first, but I dunno what is called, and i think I have misleaded the host at first, but later all the fruitstall said it was not the season, and I only produce in Queensland, So we don't have the chance.
We go to the Franston beach later, the views there is marvellous, especially at 5 pm , by 5:15. you can set your camera to get the video, it should be very good. Once again, I don't get enough memory! But I can still get the photos there, they are beautiful. and I think the guy there also a Chinese, when I ask him, he speak to me with something like ??.
{{IMG2862.jpg|center}}
We go to the Karringo shopping mall at last, to have dinner with the host, and the neighbour. We have some Cantonese food for dinner, it is quiet delicious

Back to Hong Kong
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO' day
We have to meet them in the Monash by 7 am in the morning!! It is very cold, only 3 degree celcius!!I wake up at 6 and change my clothes, and started the trip back to Hong Kong. We all say goodbye to the host, and go to the Melbourne airport.
Melbourne
When we arrived the airport, we have faced a serious problem instantly, it is our package are over-weight!! We ahve heard that the limatation is 20 KG, I think mine is 23-25 KG, so I think I have to take out all the things out. When I put the laggage on the transmittion track, it said"22.9 KG." i said" O MY GOD, how come??" But the one who sit there do not care abt it, so I pretent nothings happened.
Our plane is delayed of some reasons, but we finally get on at 10:55, delayed 45 mins, And i missed Australia...

Hurry up!!
Singapore, Singapore
When we arrived Singapore, the time was 16:40, out boarding time of the plane back to Hong Kong is 16:00!!! We ran as fast as possible when we got down the plane and we nearly ran 1 km. But I dun think we have to run there since we all by Singapore Airline(SIA), I think the airline will wait for us.
