In the event that you viewed my last post & noticed the (pseudo)Venetian man standing lovingly beside me, you might have guessed at my being in Vegas. Or Venice. Or Franco-Prussian war.

Had you guessed Vegas, you would've been vaguely accurate, like writing "maybe" on a yes or no question paper is vaguely accurate. I was in the Vegas of the East, betches... Hello Macau!

It has taken me roughly a week to get this information across because I have this annoying need to upload pictures along with blog entries to justify to my doubting heart that I was actually in said place with said people partaking in said activities. Sorting, culling & crisping pictures is a DRAINING & time-consuming process however, & I feel that these hands are too weary for such an undertaking. For shame!

But here - one visual representation of me being a tourist & posing with the Guan-Yin statue:


It was fantastic, much like sucking your thumb in public without receiving disapproving stares is fantastic! We indulged in FOOD, culture, casinos & more FOOD. Obviously this little bear was happy. Anyway, I'd like to be a little more thorough & anecdotal with that experience, so maybe later, with much more images for optical assault!

Anyway,
I hate asking asking asking for favours, but I do implore your support for my application for 'The Best Job In The World' competition. Your view & rating counts in my heart, & if you don't mind giving it, then my eternal gratitude is with you. As an added bonus, you can even have my sister.

But anyway, here: please & thank you.

Am still in Manila. I head back to 'Stralya on Tuesday, & I am already having withdrawals from this place. They withdrawals are physically manifesting as little red bumps on my skin. On second thought though & a highly more probable one at that, aforesaid withdrawal might actually be ant bites & mosquito bites. OH DENGUE FEVER, HOW YOU TEASE ME SO.

No, i'm increasingly sad about having to return. While I do miss Australia & my mommy & my daddy & my sister (although this one perhaps not so much) & all my mother truckers & my room & the inspiring sense of road rage I have from driving the car,

I really don't want to go back just yet :( Bah.

Posted a new video tonight starring the talented Dave, whose permission I did not receive in starring him. AHAHA, I am an excellent human being. It's simple, yes, but I do have to start somewhere in this supposed return to the internets world. Whatever, I had fun:



Yours til Niagara falls,
Nikki xx
