Street.of.Perth

Ok seeing as there's nothing good for me to blog about,
I'll try to be a little journalist-savvy and blog in an professional manner this time.

Good to see all you readers/stalkerz,
Thank You for taking a peek at this week's issue of "Streets of Perth from an Eccentric 19-Year Old Malaysian's Point of View" !

Today I'll be writing about Murray Street.
Where all the buzz is. (not always the good kind)
Located in the heart of Western Australia's capital, Perth.

The central portion of the street is a pedestrian mall.
Shops to your left and right.
Busy Australians buzzing through the crowd.
Laid-back teens hanging out with their besties.
Murray St is a place where you can find all sorts of interesting people.

And you know what comes with interesting people, interesting shops !
It's basically a long open air mall with everything you need.
Heck, there's even 2 malls attached to the street.
You'll never get bored of shopping there.

Need some new clothes ?
Myer, Jayjays, Cotton On, yd etc all got your back.
Feeling hungry ?
FOOD COURTS GALORE !
Just a light snack ?
Grab a quick smoothie or tea at Java Juice or Easy Way.
Need money ?
Pull out a gun. We're all used to it.
Or just pay a visit to the bank.

*Ok, my attempt to sound professional is making myself cringe.
  Now I know Journalism is REALLY not my thing*

What I'm trying to say is.
Murray St is awesome.
Yes, take this from a newbie.
You WILL be overwhelmed by all the things to do there.
I'm sure it'll keep you quite entertained for at least a week.

In my opinion, I like the place because :

  1. It's near CAT Bus stops (Free bus service within the city)
  2. The City of Perth Library is there. Free Computer Usage !
  3. Street-wide free Wifi is provided !
  4. There are bankS.....which also give out free Wifi.
  5. Subway, 'nuff said.
  6. EasyWay ! Which is like the best Pearl Milk Tea they have here.
  7. Reject Shop ! The savvy way to shop ! (Part of my Frugal Living Plan)
  8. Cinema. Never really went there though.
  9. Good Sammy ! Nothing like supporting charity by buying clothes old people died in.
  10. Java Juice ! BEST.STRAWBERRY.SMOOTHIE.EVER !
  11. Supermarkets ! Convenient, no ?
  12. Street Performers ! Lots of wacky ones too.
  13. MYER. Shopping for rich people.
  14. (near) Apple Store !
  15. LOTS of rooftop bars.
  16. You get the point.
  17. Plenty for you to do @ Murray Street.
  18. So what are you waiting for ?
  19. Pack that bag QUICK and come on over !
  20. Why am I still typing in points ?
  21. Nevermind.
There's also this water fountain/labyrinth at the square.
It's only here for summer ('cuz it's BURNING SCORCHING).
Kids play there everyday.
I can play there too.
But it's just too troublesome =P
That's all for now.
I'm busy (konon) emptying my to-do list before school starts this Friday.
Well it's only orientation (and no international students YET)...
But I'm already feeling pretty excited/scared.
Typical first-day-of-school feeling right ?
Well this is the first time in 7 years I'm going to a whole new school in a whole new environment.
Wish me luck ^_^
