the victoria uni building is soooo pretty

comment we got: "awesome stuff" :D

THIRD MATCH - against Victoria U.
it's also the first match that sally and i mooted in....and luckily we won =p
what a good start!

FOURTH MATCH - against UTS (university of technology sydney)
the tallest mooter in the pic (jamie) won the best mooter prize :D
they're such a friendly bunch......will miss them lots
oh and the arbitration was heard before "online DMC" - the guy who wrote the homepage with all the maritime case extracts!!! we've certainly impressed him with our "tab AF of the bundle".....
after 2 days of intense competition, felix treated us to dinner at a lebanese restaurant called Abla's recommended by denise! he also told us some strange stories that happened in PCLL....

monday night drinks at Gold Monkey - had a nice chat with friends from 政法大學!

the next day, we headed to Fitzroy by tram...

and took quite a lot of pics...

since not many shops are open at fitzroy, we left early and attended a guided tour at the parliament :) the green background in one of the pics above is the carpet in the room of the legislative assembly.

we had too much time to kill...hence the visit to st. pactrick's cathedral

Grand finals at the Federal Court of Australia which took us 30 min to find -__-"'

and finally...the awards dinner!!!

saying goodbye to the lovely people from india and indonesia...

lastly...more jester pies in the morning
and took a small jet to sydney in the afternoon :D
