Journal no. 3

i walked from A to B this morning. it took about an hour.
why? because the bus is very irregular and very indirect on Saturdays.
won't do it again anytime soon though - very tiring. 
found it surprising that sometimes, the pedestrian path was only on 1 side of the road.

at B (Victoria Park), there are a lot of car-sale lots, shops catering to ethnic needs and a Salvation Army store.
i bought Indian ready-to-eat veg packs and 2nd-hand clothes.
sneakers for A$2.99. oh yeah.

then i walked to Vic Park train station.
look at this!
there are no gates, and no staff. just 2 fare-card-readers at the end of the stairs.
i think one can travel between stations for small suburbs like this for free.

the wait between trains to Perth station was 27 minutes. omg.

went to the Cultural Centre. there was a fair to promote studying in Perth or something.
8 food stalls, and a performance of drummers and some Brazilian dancers?
i don't know, okay?

checked out the state library.
there was an exhibition for the WA Press Photographer of the Year Awards.
the photo essay about the skateboarding friar was cool.

then went to PICA. there were 5 pieces of work in there. this was one of them.

also picked up real time, an art free-paper with interesting articles about festivals and performances around Australia.
the arts scene in Perth definitely pales in comparison to Sydney or Melbourne.
i want to go to those places someday.
