What the hell is a flying green song-rabbit?!
Grongbit (GReen sONG rabBIT) is the result of our nicknames combined. "Our" meaning the three founding authors. The flying comes from our guest-turned-permanent blogger, Butterfly Coffin.
And yes, rabbits can too fly, sing and be green.

Gold Coast: Last Day at Q1 and Jupiter's Casino Buffet YUM!
Thus ends the Gold Coast holiday posts of 2010. It was a good 8 days and 7 nights, though not without some uh, bad stuff (i.e. people being lazy, people fighting, people being moody). Until the next time we go out - won't be for quite awhile... - this will be the last heavy photo post for now.
So, Day 8 of Gold Coast trip 2010 began with Minglez screaming at everyone to get up.
Just like Day 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7...
...
We packed our bags and dragged them downstairs to the front desk, bidding our home for the past week farewell.
All our leftover food from the night before in the plastic bag. There was quite a lot. And a lot of alkie.
Chilling out before we leave.
Photo of the...interesting tiger decor in our room. Minglez and the guys room had a different decorator with a less obvious theme.
After leaving our luggage at reception we took the bus to Q1, the tallest building in Australia I believe. We had some discount tickets hehe.
77th floor o_o
The views were incredible. The blue skies with white clouds, the golden-white beach stretching as far as the eye could see, the awesome lagoons/rivers/lakes/whatever they are called, littered through the city, close to the coast.
And large glass panels for you to look at every angle.
Waves.
The river winding through the city of Gold Coast.
Hai!
Haiiii!
Boys and Minglez getting bored of the scenery.
Kebu and I got a bit hungry and bought some pricey cakes.
I forgot the cake -_- It was some French cream or cheese cake of a sort, with a large dollop of whipped cream.
Hot chocolate(?) and a chai latte.
Nomnom.
Forlorn-looking Bee, all by herself.
Some very pretty pictures of Bee.
After Q1 we went to Jupiter's Casino for a huge lunch at the all-you-can-eat buffet. Another bus trip in the opposite direction~
Rather expensive for us poved uni students, BUT the food was really good and drinks were free!
There was a bit of everything at the table. The food was pretty good. Definitely recommend!
Bee and her bowl of cherry tomatoes.
When our tums were full of nomz we flopped into the foyer of the casino, chatting briefly and working off our excess weight before catching the bus back to the apartments. We then headed back to the bus stop, luggage in tow, and patiently slept through the long ride to the airport.
Oh Marweechi, you missed out :( Perhaps next time ne?

Gold Coast: Leftover Theme Parks
This is all the leftover days (which aren't many anyway. I have time now since it's Easter so up goes this post :)
This time it was to Movieworld, Whitewater World and a bit more of Dreamworld.
Unfortunately Shu and Josh weren't here for Whitewater since they left early; they missed out.
So on with the pictures.
We got up late as usual, had breakfast and took the 40min bus ride to Movieworld.
Camwhoring with Kebuuu.
Camwhoring with Bee and Midori who got cut off from Kebu's head lol.
Midori and Bee = kawaii.
Going to Movieworld yay!
Miiven on the bus. We are poseurs.
Putting on sunscreen in the bus. The Australian sun is a killer.
Beer goggles on!
The giant nachos that took forever to come at our table and Midori was the only one who got hers about 30mins before ours. Wtf man, such bad service!
Dreamworld part. No pictures of Whitewater since everyone was wet and couldn't carry cameras. It was just as fun as Wet N Wild, even had the same funnel ride!!! That is still the BEST. RIDE. EVER.
We all went to the beach on our last night at the Gold Coast. It was a last minute decision since we lived practically right next to the beach but never hung out there!
Just a couple of good friends having fun at the beach while the sun set.
We are a little outrageous and weird. Actually that's just me.
The gorgeous horizon/twilight.
Um, yeah. Minglez abusing Stevewee as always.
That night we rented a movie and cozied up on the couches under the aircon and blankets. It was nice and quiet and easy, compared to the night before where we binged and played shot-pong and beer goggles. Ahh, alcoholic past times.
A couple of us were knocked out from cheeze balls, chips and softdrinks. It was pretty late when we went to bed.

Ten months...
So it was our ten-month anniversary (We both forgot [shouldn't anniversary strictly has the year as the smallest unit?]), which means I have less than two months to get a present!! I seriously don't know what to get him. I'm kinda cash-strapped with my $124.05/week budget (damn centrelink!!) and my excessive spending habits. I assume he doesn't read this blog because I never update it. So... What should I get him? ):
-Kebu
PS: Why did his aunt and uncle have to come over to Australia this weekend?! I won't get any time with him!!! Dx Dx Dx Dx Dx

Hmm...
Went to Luna Park today with family for a jolly Good Friday!
How did you guys spend yours?
I just wanted to say... I really love my hair right now wtf. >.>
I was about to take a shower when I decided to admire my long hair in the mirror and take a few photos. Please allow me a few moments to be narcisstic.
I think I've converted, I like this a million times beter than dead straight hair. Don't get me wrong I am not stopping straightening my hair but I've just curl it slightly myself after so it's not too dead straight.
Okay now the question is..... should I dye it an even lighter colour? I want something caramel/golden brown colour rather than the reddish hue I have now.
Also should I consider getting contacts when I next go to the optometrist? I am sorta getting sick of changing glasses to sunnies all the time and getting smudge marks on my glasses all the time. But the most annoying thing is the fact that my glasses don't fall right on my nose and so the top of the frame cuts off 1/4 of my eyes (I believe I've mentioned this countless times). So should I just get new frames that don't slide off? Or is my lack of a nose bridge from the asian genetic factor doom me to always have glasses that half fall off? And hence should I get contacts???
I reckon I look weird without glasses though. Like there's too much skin visible ON MY FACE. And too less eyes covering my face. AND it becomes more visible that my eyes are weird sized/shaped etc etc.
So what should I do???
This picture is so freaky man seriously. I didn't like how less room my eyes occupied on my face, (especially how I have deluded myself into thinking my eyes aren't so small since I look at myself at about 3cm away from the mirror when I have no glasses on) so I decided to cover half my face with hair... and then not smile cuz smiling makes me squint!! result is this creepy picture O_O.
Btw Marweechi if you're reading this I had a dream you got your hand/arm chopped off. But I didn't do it I swear! I had a dream we were in ninja camp and the last level was a real fight to become a true ninja (WTF???) and you got your hand/arm chopped off in the fight. And I think me or minglez was up next but I woke up and didn't see if they passed the exam thingo or not. Actually I dunno if you passed the ninja exam either considering you lived minus a limb...
Anyway sorry I am rambling...
Oh also today I came home to find this request in my fb/email:
Hmm.....?
