Inner west courier

G'day! Let me tell you our Robinson was on paper this week! No he wasn't arrested, nor caught with his mischief. He looks like a promotional manager at Beehives gallery. Woohoo!!

rabbie on the beach

This is Rabbie, a pink rabbit. Yesterday we went to Bondi beach. Yes THE Bondi. It was such beautiful weather. We made a sand mountain. Water was cold but many people enjoyed swimming.

After we enjoyed beach, we went for drinks.

Robinson in Campsie

Robinson went for lunch to Campsie, a little so-called Asian town in inner Sydney. He had a lunch meeting with his friends.











'What can I have today?', wondered Robinson. Sunny weather made him sleepy.











On a train he remembered that he skipped breakfast this morning... he was getting hungry and hungry... All he thought of was food. ... ... ...

... Robinson, what are you doing?















Naughty Robinsonl! Can you eat lunch????

"Yes, I can!", replied Robinson with his mouth filled with snacks.

Soon after we arrived Campsie. The first thing he saw was Korean sign.

'I can't read!', said Robinson. (+_+)

Then his friends picked him up and they went to Korean restaurant.



'I'm thirsty. Can I drink it?', smiled Robinson cheekily. His friends gave him a glass of orange juice.

A bird and musical sand

On my way home from work, I found white birds flying over my head. They were white lorikeets! They are common birds in Australia but I have seen them only in a cage in a pet shop before. It was impressive!












Summer has already left Sydney but one sunny Saturday afternoon, me and my friend went to beach. It was really beautiful weather and many people enjoyed swimming.

One girl came to us and greet in Japanese. It was cute surprise. She was from Adelaide, WA and told us she had a friend who's Japanese so studied Japanese ever since. Having friends from another countries is a great start to study language and from the language, people start learning more about the country where friends come from. I hope she will enjoy studying!

After saying good-bye to the girl. We started walking on the beach. Then we found that some part of sand on the beach made sound every time we made steps. So we jumped around the areas as if we played some instruments. What a fun it was!

Robinson in Asia - Part 2

Robinson came to downtown in Mongkok, Hong kong.
'I'm starving.', Robinson remembered he had nothing today.

Robinson @ Macau old square.



'Strange looking building!!', Robinson wondered how it was built.



There were so many people in Macau fort. Robinson couldn't see a thing so Robinson stood on a girl's head!



'Bang bang baaang!!', Robinson on an old cannon.



'Spooky little space...', thought Robinson.



'Many tourists!', Robinson wanted to go somewhere different.



Macau tower reminded Robinson of Sydney tower.



On his way home, Robinson remembered every little thing he experienced in places he visited.

'I can't eat no more Chinese', said Robinson in his dream...

Robinson in Asia - Part 1

Hi guys! How are you? Did you have good time in Easter holiday? Well Robinson did!

This time he finally took a plane and went to Asia, Taiwan and Hong kong. He was too excited to sleep on the night before. Yet he managed to see as many places as he could in 2 weeks trip.











'When is my train coming?', said Robinson excitinglyin Metro, Taipei.



'You got me!', Robinson played hide and seek at the Embassy centre, Taipei.







Panorama, Damshui.
'Rain, go away!', Robinson screamed at the sky.










'Wow, it's a bullet train!', Robinson jumped on a seat. He wanted to see more but he heard anouncement.
'Please be seated with your seatbelt on.'



"Broom, Broom!!", Robinson on a bike in Kaohsiung.



Robinson crossing Victoria Harbour on Star Ferry.




Lemma island in Hong kong.
'I can see everything from here!', excited Robinson.



On the other side of the island, there was a massive industrial area. Robinson didn't say a word. What were you thinking, Robinson?



'Stray cats! (stay away from troubles.)', said Robinson to himself.

What I really wanted

On my way to work, I listen to music always. My recent favorite is Noriyuki Makihara's album 'Explore'. This morning one of his songs hit my head. He makes really good songs. I love his lyrics in most of his song.

I found my reason why I keep creating stuff in this song.

The original song is written in Japanese but I try to translate.

[What I really wanted]

A while ago I found a very wonderful thing
And was happy
When I looked aside, I noticed there was someone
Then I realized he needs what I found more than I do now
Though I felt precious about it, I decided to put it up

If I keep looking,
I will find something more
He thanked me again and again
He smiled me with full of joy

Later I found a very wonderful thing again
When I looked aside, I noticed there was someone
Then I realized she needs what I found more than I do now
Though I felt precious about it, I decided to put it up

If I keep looking,
I will find something more
I was happy I could see a happy smiley face looking at me

After all I kept doing the same thing over and over
found nothing
When I looked back...

I found so many happy smiley faces
I felt warm inside
Then I realized this is what I was looking for

At last I found what I really wanted
