North Parramatta, Sydney

Parramatta is nice, very commercial. But need to move again this Sunday 'cos it takes me 1&1/2hours travel to work everyday. Found Parramatta not far from Manila, though. Rubbish here and there, vandalism from walls to bus stops, and people not really following pedestrian traffic lights. Don't know why they even put that here 'cos general rule of thumb is to just cross when there's no car. Unlike Singapore that even if pedestrian crossing is 200m away, people would still walk to there just to cross to the other side. A lot of people here see Singapore as too strict, too many rules. Maybe I'm a person who's more into rules. For me, more rules & discipline = less worry. More rules mean not having to wait in the bus stop at 6am with a drunk, beer-bellied, middle-aged man with no shirt on (at 14 degrees nonetheless, haha).
