We went Melbourne yesterday, mainly to shop DFO and source for hotel. And it was so cool because we witness a protest happening at federal square. (like marina square)
Protesting for same sex marriage.
We were walking and suddenly confronted with commotion across the streets. Hundreds and thousands of people cheering, shouting and chanting about same sex marriage. I read on the news 5000 people involved in the protest. It was so cool, I mean the act of protesting. The central of Melbourne literally stop functioning, all passer by just stood there taking photos. Cars halted and road closed. Traffic police had to be deployed to direct the traffic.
The exhausting line marches across federal square
Whao, so hardcore
Policeman that stood helplessly watching the parade
The people carried red balloon and signboard asking for equality in love. They believe that the power of love will one day overcome the power of fear, even if it was coming from the same sex. And the parade ends where 6 couples illegally tied their knot outside the registration of marriage. Really one good experience for me. Haha
Btw, because of that protest going on, a lot of strange people I met. Close shave man. We had our coffee at GPO and then I was looking of a toilet. I followed the sign and leads me to a lift, had to take it one floor below to access the basement toilet, then while I was waiting, the guy/gay beside me wearing an orange stocking glanced at me. I pretended to remain claim like I was super open minded with that. He had strands of hair extension and worst, he was carrying a bag over his eblow. Boy don't carry bag over the eblow okie. Then when I was alone with him in the lift, super scary lah. When the button of the lift not responding, dunno why. He made some weird noise and I was super freaked out lah.
Okie updates, I managed to survive melbourne whole day without any cigarette. See good right, but still got the craving, think need a few days more to completely clean. And I went to Coles also, without buying any cigarettes. Then today, sunday spend the whole day watching Gossip girl till now, also without cigarette. Which means that I am persisted 4 days in my cold turkey treatment. Yeah!!
