Photos from Clipsal 500

Went to the Clipsal 500 V8 Supercares Adelaide on Saturday with Uwe (pronounced oo-vey). It was an awesome experience!!! Never been to such an event before, so was really excited about it. =) I'm not a huge huge car fan, but went there to experience how a race is like and wow, amazing. Cars were travelling fast (of course!!) and there were lots of people! And cause we bought the general admission tickets, we dun get seats on the stands. Had to stand by the racetrack side... The concert was cool too. Never been to a concert with such a huge stage before :). Music was good... who knows country music can sound so nice eh? Hehe. So here are some photos from that day... Some of the sequence may be wrong.. but too lazy to go sort everything :P

The COOL & EXPENSIVE CARS...

Procrastinating again...

I'm at it again. Procrastinating. I dunno which is worse... procrastinating or snacking. Sigh. Here are the things I know I NEED TO DO:
1) Draft survey (due tomorrow!! and I'm still sitting on it with no urgency at all! WTH!)
2) Assignment 1 for stats (due friday)
3) A thesis plan (already overdue imo)
4) Apply jobs (ongoing)
5) Exercise (still haven't start...)

HOW!? someone tell me how to make myself do these thingssssssssssss!! ARGH!!!

It is at times like this I want to kick myself... but even too lazy to do that... hopeless... >_<

>_< >.< >_< >.<

Photos from Barossa Valley and Clare Valley

Here are some photos from Barossa Valley and Clare Valley. There's lots more... between Louis and Me, we took approximately 800 photos... lol.. so here are really just SOME... (since I'm too lazy to pick out anymore :P)

Photo taken at one of the sculpture in the sculpture park at the lookout

Tasted 15 different boutique wines from the Eden Valley here. A bit more expensive than the usual ones, but they are unique. They are usually not sold in the bottle shops... FYI, boutique wines are produced by small production wineries :)

At one of the wineries...

Seppeltsfield, one of the oldest in Barossa


This is how wine looks like in the barrel... kinda puts u off huh....

Saw people picking the grapes! :) First time I've seen this! (cause I went there when the grapes were gone)

One of the towns we pass by on the way to Clare Valley. Refer to notes from previous post :P

Mining site (refer to previous blog)


View of Clare Valley. Cool huh! Took us a while to get up there though...

Sevenshill winery. The first winey established in Clare Valley.

Sun Setting...




Was going to go Glenelg to see the sunset. But couldnt make it. Went to the nearest beach which is Semamphore. Nice beach! I've never been there so it's an eye opener.
