Further to my earlier post on how Aussie angmohs suck at taking photos cos they always miss the main point in the background, followng is another photo took during the trip.

Reasons why Asians are the BEST phototakers
1/ Everyone’s face is captured
2/ Main background is captured clearly
3. This is self-taken (by James)

‘Nuff said.

We made the mistake of asking Aussie angmohs to help snap photos of us during our trip. Here’s proof why they are so bad and that we should stick to seeking help from Asians — who can self-take and still capture perfectly themselves WITH the relevant background.

Where is Flinder’s Street station?! Maybe she’s trying to capture the tower.

Barely seeing the 12 Apostles.

Now totally cannot see.

You know, we didn’t just pick any uncle or auntie off the street, we actually spotted those using pro-looking cameras thinking they have the skills, but alas! James say they just have the money to buy expensive cameras. Period. *facepalm*

Finally one decent one, but ofcos there is no background. The angmohs are pretty focus on the people in the photo as you can see.

Yarra Valley
It’s amazing how even tho I’ve spent 2 years in Melbourne, I did not manage to visit all the noted attractions. Can’t help it when I’m such a studious and poor student you know - but I reckon the real reason is that I’ve slept all my time away.

The only attraction that I’ve repeatedly visit is Great Ocean Road - a total of 4 times and this trip will make it the 5th. At the mention of GOR, Small Boobs gave me a “HAR” and “AGAIN?!!” look - but it’s the most scenic drive and the coastal formations change every year OKAY!

This time round I’ve decided to stop being so boring and go venture new places. GOR is still a must go, but hopefully we can manage to squeeze in time for Yarra Valley and Mornington Peninsula. Both were so near to where I used to stay and both great places for road trips.

I can almost smell the fresh air, see the clear blue sky and taste Strawberry Big M now. Hohoho!!
