This week’s challenge is to write about actually meeting another blogger, but the thing is I’ve never done it. So it’s rather difficult to picture how my first meet up would be as different blogger would have different personality hence the atmosphere would not be the same I reckon.
Anyway, if you happen to be in Melbourne, I think the State Library would be a good place to get together for a start. But don’t imagine a boring library full of books, this library has many things going on. Firstly, the architecture is quite fascinating, I always like building structure that takes me back in time. On top of that, there are always exciting exhibitions, interesting talks and lectures, story time for children and a dome guided tour. See, we can spend hours here just roaming through the sections and getting to know each other. We can also go down to a cafe on the first floor of the library to get something to nibble on and pair it with a cup of coffee or hot chocolate the Melbourne style.
If conversation extends to lunch or dinner, we can go out of the library and hop on the free inner city tram and go to a nearby restaurant. The library is located in the main business district so we have plenty of restaurants to choose from. You just name what kind of cuisine you are in for that day and I’ll lead the way. Then, we can shake off the calories by strolling the streets of Melbourne downtown and finally part at Flinders Station which is the central station of this city.

You met me Mbak Mikan. Ihik. Anyway I’m picturing having a nice long chat with you in the library Mbak. We chatted for hours with our little rascals friends, laughed on so many things and then after we moved to nearby diner. Aaaak when will it happen yaa. 😀

You don’t count Dan!! Lol. Yes, I am sure we’ll have lots of fun, as a matter of fact I think we’ll be kicked out from the library since we’ll be super loud as usual 😀 Hey, keep the dream alive! If not here yet, we’ll do it there like the good old times.

I had mistaken “reading room” with “trading room”, since firstly I thought that the room is in a stock market building (guess I’m too tired from this hectic day).
