kamemonster's GATE(REX空間~第三代): week20 New Year, Wedding, Birthday 新年／婚禮／生日

A lot of events happened in previous week. New year celebration, Joe and Tihana's wedding, Taiwan friends visit, my birthday... a lot a lot...

Australia new year, my first Australia new year, I can just remember that I drink a lot. I cannot count how many stubbies and drinks I drunk. Everyone goto bar then count down, everyone said "HAPPY NEW YEAR!" after count down, then start to dance and shout, a long night...

Few Taiwanese friends came to Exmouth and visit me on 3rd Jan. I think they also want to visit more place in W.A., so came to Exmouth and visit me. Because I had been here about 3 weeks, I can told them something about here and took them walk around this small town. Moreover, they cooked me a fantastic dinner, it's long time for me have not taste chicken and rice.

Joe and Tihana, my Turtle volunteer programme teammates, they got merried at 4th Jan. I took a lot of picture for them, this is my first time to see Australian wedding ceremonry, although I don't believe any kind of god, "God bless them", my English level just allow me to find this phase...

I went to diving on 5th Jan... I saw a lot amazing thing, but unfortunately, my water proved camera entered water and broken as result... one camera gone!

6th Jan is my birthday, thank you for all my Turtle programme friends, you guys brought me a fantastic night. Tihana and Ashlea made me a cake and strawberry pie, they are delicious. I recieved a Australia flag as birthday present, it really a great idea for gift to a traveller, all my friends signed on this flag, I really love this present! Thanks for everyone!

Three weeks passed, one week left... I really want to have a longer holiday with my valuable friends.

由這週起，寫完中文會寫一下英文，因為這邊開始認識了一些澳洲朋友，為了他們看得明白，雙語化是有其必要的，但當然，英文會比中文更錯漏百出吧！

本週是很豐富的一週，先有一月一日的新年，再有一月四日，澳洲友人JOE及TIHANA結婚（海灘婚禮），再到我一月六日的生日，中間三日至五日更有台灣友人由PERTH到這邊玩，是多姿多彩的豐富一週。但除了好事外，我的防水相機也入水，壞掉了．．．儘管如此，也不影響本週的好心情。

新年，基本上就是一起吃飯，再一起喝酒！喝得蠻凶的．．．我也沒有算當晚喝了多少了！其實也與香港差不多，都是大家聚在一起，等到新年一到的一刻，大家互道『HAPPY NEW YEAR』！接著握手、擁抱、跳舞，不在話下了，大概也是我少有地在人前真的放下自己，盡興狂歡吧！

台灣友人的來訪，其實在PERTH就有談過，他們的目的也是多玩西澳一點，但當初其實沒有說實，現在來到，我也到了三週了，所以盡了一下小小的『地主之宜』，他們來煮飯，我也吃到了很久沒吃過的雞肉，大家都很高興。

接著是JOE及TIHANA的婚禮，小小的婚禮，只有神父及他們兩個朋友，加上同為義工的我及GARY，這是我第一次參加澳洲人的婚禮，雖然他們對我說這樣做不是傳統澳洲人做法，但我也很高興有幸參加這次婚禮，拍了很多照片，很好的一天！祝福他們！

再來就是潛水了，來到這邊，自稱媲美大堡礁的潛水地域，我也真的去潛一下，與台灣友人TED一同前往（只有我們兩人有証書也是原因），真的看到很多東西，七彩的珊瑚、大大的鯊魚．．．遺憾的是我的水中相機潛到七米就壞掉了．．．是我保養不良還是其他原因，實在不得而知．．．而且吹乾也不能用（當然），還好我還有另一台大相機，雖然沒有那麼方便，但不至於不能拍照就好了。
