Day in Melbourne

Today I had an excursion with my Legal Studies class to the Melbourne Magistrates Court. 

I hung out with five of my best friends while we checked out some different court rooms with different cases going on. It was really interesting, but at the same time the lawyers drove me nuts with their repeated questions and going around in circles with the same story for hours on end.
It's free to walk into court cases so if you're interested in all that serious legal stuff I highly recommend doing this as it's quite a rewarding experience.

After the excursion we were dismissed to hang out in the city of Melbourne for the rest of the afternoon. Firstly we chose to go to the Queen Victorian Market. We walked up and down the isles looking at really intriguing things and encountered a multicultural experience. None of my friends actually bought anything at the market but it was still fun to walk around and look at everything.

After the market we caught a train to Richmond and went to a shop called 24hundred. This shop is sort of the equivalent to the shop Hot Topic. It's just much smaller and there's only one of them in the world. You have to walk down alleyways to get there and it's literally surrounded by no buildings that are shops, I think they're offices of some sort. It doesn't seem like they'd get much business but all the hardcore teens in Melbourne know of it and its away from all the mainstream stuff.
Anyway, so the shops entrance is a small car park that sometimes holds live, acoustic performances from bands, and it's totally covered in Joel Birch's art (he went there and painted the shop front). Inside the shop is filled with t-shirts, jumpers, shorts and cds from a small selection of bands, some including In Hearts Wake, Northlane, Violent Soho, The Amity Affliction, A Day To Remember, Thy Art Is Murder, Architects and I Killed The Prom Queen (They have a much bigger variety online). My friend and I lapped the shop a few times before deciding on what to purchase. I got a t-shirt which is In Hearts Wake, and my friend got a hoodie from The Amity Affliction. After this, some of our friends had to leave to go home so there was just three of us.

We caught a train back to Southern Cross Station and then went over to the Spencer Street Outlet where we did some clothes shopping. By this time we were beginning to get extremely sore feet.

This is where we departed with one of our friends and then it was just the two of us. We caught a train to Essendon to go to the Cafe Johnny Pump. When we arrived we had to ask for directions to the cafe, so we asked these people who owned an amazing costume shop. I seriously want to go back there in the future and do what they do in the movies with trying all the costumes on with friends. Anyway, so it was a 2 minute walk to Johnny Pump. We entered the small cafe and took a seat at a table that was surrounded by succulents. The service at this place was extremely good, the waiters were lovely and we got out food fast. I ordered a milkshake of Butterscotch, Chocolate Chip & Lamington, my friend ordered a Caramel Popcorn & Oreo milkshake and we got a bowl of fries to share. I'd rate my milkshake 11/10 and I highly recommend visiting this cafe and trying that milkshake in particular. There is a great variety of shakes that I absolutely have to try so I plan to come back here in the future. They also have a breakfast, lunch and dinner menu that looks to die for!

All in all a great day with great people and amazing places. Make sure you check out Johnny Pump if you haven't already and comment below what you thought of it!!
