'Silence' @ Docklands. Featuring: Cow up the Tree

Melbourne Docklands

Cow up the tree

-let's meet by the cow up the tree

A sculpture by John Kelly, in reference to a Portrait of Joshua Smith (an Aussie painter), drawn by William Dobell.

'Silence'

We walked on.. and entered an area known as 'New Quay'. There, we encountered another Urban Art display, known as 'Silence'. Created by Adrian Maurika, officially launched on 13th April 2003 by John Tabart, CEO Docklands Authority and Paul McDonald, Group GM of MAB Corp at New Quay.

Silence is the secret and the holy grail.

Epiphany is the greatest joy.

With an undertow of aum,

Reverberating.

ADRIAN MAURIKS.

Waterfront City

I'm pretty impressed with their creativity! Using projection spot lights to decorate an otherwise empty and plain square.


We look like Mr Bean who just fallen down into a spot of light.




This was where we initially intended to go: Hot Chocolate.

However, the entire glasshouse was booked by Monash University Female Engineering Students.. *sigh*

So we headed off for Brunetti instead.

My Weekly Routine- Very 'Interesting'

THAT'S IT!

Time to get a life..

Hi Friends and Family. I'm still alive..

and I'll like to keep it that way. Lemme show you how(I do it):

The following photos you see basically sums up my weekly routine.

Waking up to a late saturday morning, we take the free That's Me!bourne shuttle bus to Queen Vic Market. We usually go marketing after 1300hrs. When we first began, we carried with us the Singaporean (Wet) Marketing Mentality: Must go on Sundays, Must go early.

WRONG WRONG WRONG!

'Clinical Pearls' for the Astute Grocery Shopper

(please skip if you don't do marketing)

#1. Firstly, on Sundays, half of the market is closed for tourist shopping! The stalls selling vegetables and fruits, that normally occupy the rear end of the market, are being chased away every sun to make way for nougat and koala bear pushers. These very stalls sell the cheapest fruits and vege because they are located relatively further from the main market.

#2. Secondly, you go early, true, u get the fresher food. But only fresher by a few hours (all meat are refridgerated, indoors)! Going at 1 pm, you get the best deals as stalls start slashing prices by almost 50%!

#3. Thirdly, if you're wondering if it's cheaper to travel by Tram on the AUD2.50 whole-day-all- zone tram ticket, YES. However you can save more money by taking the Free Tourist Shuttle to Queen Vic everyday from 10am to 4pm.

Now I sound like an auntie hehe...

You haven't seen Auntie till you've seen this:

'Brocolli prices are plummeting! Let's buy more!'

Store keeper didnt look too happy when I took this shot.
-We bought too much brocolli?

Next, we leave it to the experts to do their thing:

Mondays to Fridays:

The following scenes are performed by Highly trained professionals. Please do not try to enact these scenes from home. Doing so would put yourself, your family and possibly your dog at risk.. with cheese.

'an additional contribution to the vestibular nerve is from hair cells in the macula acoustica of the utricle and saccule' - *Yawns*

I'm holding 4 different coloured highlighters.

This is a common sight for us. Everyday from Sun to Thurs, mugging till 1am every night! All this just to catch up with our classmates. Ah-ha! Serves you right for returning everything you've learnt to your teachers in poly.

As usual, Z Monster wins.

In my dreams: Allow me to Stimulate the afferent pathways to the Maxillary (V2) and Mandibullar (V3) Division of ur Trigeminal Nerve.

If you were wondering what my MSN nick (as seen above, in my dreams) means: Trigeminal Nerve = Cranial Nerve 5, the sensory nerve of the Central Nervous System.

It is divided into 3 parts: V1: Ophthalmic Division (which I'm more concerned with) supplies ur upper eyelid, cornea, tear glands etc...

V2 innervates the skin of your Cheek, Upper Lip etc..

V3 innervates your Lower Lip, Anterior 2/3 of the Tongue etc..

Get it? *wink* wink* Oops, did I trigger a neuro-sympathetic response in you?
