Melbourne; oh how I love thee

As some maybe aware, I took a short business trip to Melbourne last month. I was basically sooo excited about the trip. It was basically my very FIRST trip interstate. It was such an amazing experience for me.

The reason behind this mini trip was because I won a free trip to Melbourne, courtesy of CPA. They literally paid for the flights, accommodation, meals and the mentoring session. So literally, all I needed was myself and my clothes and I was jetted off to Melbourne :)

My room; the Standard King at the Crown Promenade

I was lucky enough to have a good view of the busy Melbourne City

The Casino at in the Crown Tower

Love the lighting decor

Good Morning Melbourne;
Ready for a jammed packed day

The whole day at CPA involved mentoring sessions from the finance, HR, project development departments and with the CEO himself. After that was a photo shoot (which I want to post up, but due to confidential reasons I can't) and filming session, which I'll be starring in.

To conclude the jammed packed day, was a dinner in the board room, in which all 6 winners (including me) received the CPA program scholarship .... best thing is: it doesn't have an expiry DATE!!!

Sneak Peak #2: Behind the scene on where it all takes place

The one thing that I learnt while filming was to NOT look at the 3 cameras =__=" But it was sooo hard when they keep looking at youuu TT__TT.
BIG HINT: I'm going to be apart of one of the interviewed episodes in about October. OhNo!

Ending the day with a late night stroll along SouthBank River

 One of the amazing things about the Crown, was that they do a fire show (which lasts for about 10mins) that goes off every hour from 6pm to 12am. Anyone up for some BBQ pigeons?

Along one of the bridges; underneath this bridge is
actually a bar

Reaching the end of SouthBank River; an epic 40min walk

I met so many people while I was here in Melbourne. It was such a shame that I was only there for 2 days and 2 nights. If only they gave me an extra day; so I can go shopping.

I just want to thank CPA Australia for giving me this opportunity :). Stay in tune, I'm going to become apart of their upcoming videos >.<"

I will admit it; even though I was here for 2 days and 2 nights I think I've fallen in love with Melbourne. I need to come back here ASAP!
