...was fantabulously awsome. With three intense-packed days of gorging George Street and being a down-right tourist (strangely enough...) I allowed myself to be awe-struck with the higher building skylines. However admist all the strange 'new' smells (versus Melbourne smells) there was the spice of nostalgia lingering at the back of my head. Being a resident of Sydney for 12 years it is wonderous to return back to look through with different perspective. Like a photograph, the composition will change dramatically with the slightest change of camera angle...
Sydney vs. Melbourne-(CBD only)
Food: Much more variety and cheap flavorous eats available in Sydney.
Fashion: ha...what's with the mullet cuts and the macho try-hard looks in Sydney males?
Traffic: Sydney loves its No Left Turns
Condensation: Instead of being limited to being drunk and dancing at 3am along George st to the weekends, weekdays is not only an exception, but more numerous...
Greater Union: It's a whole new world to see Hugh Jackman's face in The Prestige to suddenly expand and explode in colours as the film dies in the middle of a climax. Well, now I have a free movie ticket!
Big shot names: Sydney sure loves its extravagance -the use of ...Ba Kut Teh King, Noodle King, Comic King, Pastry King...a.k.a. KING, and... WORLD is over-used. Why "World Square", "World Stadium" when it's only down under?
Despite its modesty, I still love Sydney.
