Hello Melbourne

I am currently writing from Melbourne using a good friend's laptop, after spending a few days in Adelaide. For those of you who have been ardent followers of my writings, you would notice that I had already wrote something about this city sometime last year during my first visit. It was a short visit though, pretty much those words I had written were based on first impressions. This time I will be here for a longer period, and I hope to enjoy my stay to the max. Perhaps a drawback is that the weather has not been too kind here; it is supposed to be summer, but so far not a second I could go outdoor without having to don my jumper for fear of being eaten by the coldness of the atmopshere.

On another note, I have started reading two new books in the space of two days since arriving here in Melbourne. They are Say it Like Obama: The Power of Speaking with Purpose and Vision by Shel Leanne and Dr. Mahathir's Selected Letters to World Leaders. Both are impressive in their own ways, definitely the kind I was looking forward to having not read any good book since The Road to Mecca a few months back. I do not plan to bring both books back to Sydney with me since they are owned by my friend-cum-host, so the idea is to finish both of them before I get back this Thursday. We will see if I can do that.

Friend Mibo has started his own blogging journey, and that should make the headline of the week! Well, actually he has been writing for quite a long time, but only recently he decided to move to Blogspot. His witty style and French influence are definitely worth checking out.
