My Life Unfolds

Having nothing to do.. is GREAT

2008-06-25T08:36:00.003+08:00

Having Nothing to do at all... is so super duper GREAT. But of coz, it's so much better if there's some1 slacking with u.

I have offically did nothing for 3 weeks now. Since the semester ended. Previous 2 weeks, Junqi had Exams, thus I was all alone... feeling bored. But since he finish on last Thurs, slacking has never been better. It's seeing him 24/7 and never getting bored. Even these days... we can sleep at 7-9pm and wakes within the wee hours of 4-6am. But I like it thou.. it's like I have the most of the sunshine during the day. I love day times.. as u see the sun slowly rising, temperature warming up and lots of time to do anything u wan.

Another benefit of waking up early.... is washing clothes. I have gt so much to wash. Clothes, bedsheets, lil' pillows, floor mats and Junqi's labcoat. Each have to be washed separately. It's to prepare for next week... when my both parents and Junqi's mum arrival in Perth! When they come, it'll all be clean sheets and pillows for them.

It's really exciting for me. Great that this time... my Dad's coming along with Mum. I believed Mum missed him den.. when she came here alone in Nov. And Dad was freaking bored at home, with only Sis ard in the nite.... and they dun really tok since Sis inherited from Dad. Being Quiet ppl.

I have Junqi and I have my Parents. What else could I ask for... they're all my Loves.

For this trip, I wan it so much better for them... more Fun and relaxation. I will wan to post all the pics too... updates on the trip. But I might... as usual... be so lazy.

Maybe.... for this hols, I am worries free too. I dont worry abt my results this sem, since there's no exams. All enrolment for units are settled too. I told my Honey Bun/Bunny, this is probably my happiest time in Perth. It'll only last for this week thou. The adults are coming for 2 weeks, then Junqi have gt his work experience thingy for 2 weeks. And Uni starts again! which, sux.

Oh yes, I met Calynn.... aft a long long time, last Mon. I felt really good on my way home from her place. We had a lousy lunch which she treated me to. Brief shopping ard the City. And went back to her place to grab some maps of South western australia and tried on her popcorn machine. It's so cute and I feel like getting 1 myself, but I dont think I will. Hah. I think that meeting did pull us closer alil more since the drift last year?

I have been watching Sex and the City while Junqi plays his psp. Within 3-4 days, I have already finished 3 seasons. Currently on the 4th. I could finish up all the 6 seasons by this weekend I guess.

Last thing to update... I think. I feel bad abt taking leave for next week for work at the bakery. Manger's going on her hols from 30June to 13July. My Parents are here from 29June to 12July. How coincedental is that?! For the 5 days downsouth trip, I've got no choice but to take that week off. I feel bad thou.. coz even part-timers have to work 6 days now. I would like it if I'm them... work means $$. But the newest current Perth-PR Msian malay girl... is too lazy to like working so many days.

This led me to wan to type on. It's thoughts in my mind that cant stop. Junqi thinks that I think too much. But seriously, I think my brains works really fast on thinking abt random things. Point I wan to make is... I dun really like that Malay girl. Sometimes I'm neutral thou. I find her too lazy and slow. Many Malays are lazier. In Spore or Msia. But when I think abt Rokia, den tt's a different case. I duno... but bah, doesnt matter. I only see her on Mon mornings.

I'm also waiting for my contacts to arrive from Msia, and a bag and top which I bought gt online in Sg. The contacts is a freaking mth+ late. I was angry... she shld have given me a discount. Haha. And the bag I bought from Ferlyn's auction site, it's disappointing. Mum told me the skin is peeling. I saw it on webcam itself too. But how am I going to request a refund on that. I told Ferlyn abt it and she said she can return me the money and I can still take the bag, coz she dun use it anymore too. But still... mayb she shld say she'll charge the bag cheaper? I duno, just think that might be a better solution. I'm still taking it thou. But it's sad... The top, better be all good. Or I'll never buy anyting online again.

Time to hang up the clothes.....

Group meeting

2008-05-21T11:33:00.003+08:00

I'm starting to... No, probably alrdy disliking group meeting with the rest of the girls. Somehow, they always make me feel that I dont do enough. I'm probably super lazy.. but I'm not stupid. 1 of the girls.. is really dominating. She decides wad each ppl in the group does. I'm given most of the junky part of the project. For example, Timesheet. I HATE doin that. But if it's a small scale, I can press my teeth tgt tightly and let it pass. This current proj we're doing on, it's definately nt small scale. It's a 2 mths long proj.. whic would require abt 10 meeting minutes!!

That.. has infact spoilt most of my mood to study for the test tmr. I may b the least intelligent of the 3 girls.. but tt doesnt mean I'm nt intelligent at all! I know I need guidance as well, but when I get it, I always try to do my best!

But she didnt give me a chance. For the timesheet, I could squeeze out all my brain juice to do a tougher part of the project. It's not a different part to do, but I just duno how to crap. Since learning how to write a simple 1, prob in sec sch, I alrdy dislike it. Too bad... for this current time of the day, I alrdy did half of it. So I'm not going to give up my brainjuice for it anymore.

I just need to whine/complain/be grouchy abt it.

Somehow, this reminded me of a backstabber incident whic I encountered since my 1st yr in Perth. Things may b cleared since... but I could nv trust again. I was really naive. Thinking any1, every1 could be like my sec sch frens n poly frens. Where there was no discriminating, no bias-ness. We stood tgt no matter wad.

I think abt myself over the last 2.5 yrs since coming to Perth. When I had problems, who I could turn to n tok to. The only person was probably Calynn.. she was the only soul I knew when I came to Perth, knowing no1. I rem going to her whenever I needed some1 to tok to. When I felt lonely... i even asked to sleep with her on the squeezy single bed. She allowed too.

Over 2 yrs alrdy... she has graduated n moved out of the current hse I'm still staying in Holder street. Junqi has prob taken over this companionship she used to provide me with. But I still dun feel that he understds enough.

Drift.

But Calynn... since she was with Clement, I feel the drift between us alrdy. I dun dislike Clem in any way. But incidents n when planning of meetings, she had made it clear tt Clem will be there always. Peiling, a sec sch fren I used to be so close to, just told me. A fren will always be a fren. But i really hate to see frens drift. Ppl I trust so so much, no matter the distance, to actually be so difficult to talk to now.

My sec sch frens, Peiling Geraldine Jiafang Tingjun Shirley, the only person I talk to now, is Shirley. But she nt usually ard. It's difficult for us to share anything with each other nowadays. But she's a fren that I really really wan to keep. For good. Poly girls, all busy with work n bf. They dun come online much.. just like Shir. And it's difficult for me to always keep up n call them from over the miles.

Junqi... I said earlier, he may prob have taken over the companionship. But sometimes... he adds on to my emptyness. I know if I'm ever without him here, I will feel as if I'm the only person in the world. I still feel that I dont know him enough.. no matter how long we knew each other before this bgr. When I liked him so very much that he's so different from other guys, he's actually not. I complain and whine abt anything that makes me upset. But he has no comments.. no nth to comfort me abt. Since he went to Uni at 2pm, I wandered from his room, to my room.. n back n forth. I was abit lost. I didnt feel like doing anything.

Ppl I could really turn to now.. is practically zero. I only hang out with a grp of girls fr chem eng. If i have any problems with them, who can I tell, who can understd? If I have rship problems, who can i turn to too? When i used to turn to Shir n the poly girls so much..

Sometimes, jus sometimes, I'm slightly glad that the landlord's family is at hm. When they make noise, at least I know there's ppl in the hse.

I'm a very Human person. I need ppl ard me. If I'm the guy from I am Legend, I rather die. I depend on ppl, life ard me to be alive. I get affected by things/ people easily. I'm emotionally very weak. But I dun like to appear weak infront of others. I dun like ppl to know my emotion. I think alot. Coz my brain wont stop thinking. Every second, it could be thinking of different random stuff.

I'm emotional now. Prob pms-ing. But here n there when my mind wanders off, all the thoughts I typed above, are those that ever came to my mind b4.

So long ago

2008-05-16T19:29:00.007+08:00

Havent blog for nearly 2 months now. Been so super duper lazy... n pretty busy.

I said I will continue the Freo outing.. I didnt. Haha.. so freaking lazy to post pics too!

I took this pic! Arty....

Sunsets always looks so good.

From since last or last 2 blog, our collection of fighting fishes has increased to 4. 1 died thou... but amt still adds to up 4.

Aft having Flappy, Junqi wanted 2 more fighting fish to see them fight. Cruel I know. But it's only aft they fought, that we gt heartache. Butter lost.. pretty much fins were bitten off. But I think they look they prettiest when they fought.

Some time later when we went to the same shop to buy the fake plants in the tank, we saw the red fish. It was so pretty... we felt we had to get it. Heh. Named it Roe. Coz we passed by Roe highway on the way to the shop... and also fish roe, is red too!

Butter, Bruice, Flappy, Roe.

The 2 double tanks in full view. Directly above Junqi's table.

It's 2 more weeks of uni left for me. Coz there's totally NO exams this sem. Yippy!! I hope can score alot better thou... so as to improve the overall grade. It'll be a really busy week next week, with 2 tests and a pretty major combine proj to complete. This is prob the 2nd of such week in this sem.

Tiger Airways tickets are at sg$470 currently... to Perth. So Dad n Mum are coming by the end of June! YEAH! I'm really excited abt it.. juz like the last time when Mum was here. It's even better coz Dad can come as well this time. Junqi's mum is also coming ard tt time. Hope she would fly on the same flight with Mum n Dad. So all 5 of us can tour ard Perth tgt. Tt would be best. =)

I hope i'll be more motivated to blog the pics this time.

When Easter was over, there were still easter chocs in the supermarket. I was thrilled! For the last 2 yrs I was here, they didnt continue selling the chocs. They became from 25% off, to 50% off to 75% off!! There was this Lindt choc that came with the Lindt bunny. No matter how ugly Junqi think it is, I think it's supa dupa Cute!

Thus.... he bullies it! >:(

The eeyore he gave to me n the Lindt bunny.

My toys collection on the corner of my bed, from Perth Royal Show and given.

He insist on not taking a proper pic with the bunny.

Am still working in Coles bakery... Am still a student. Am a hsewife.. & his gf.

End of Easter break

2008-03-29T15:41:00.009+08:00

Uni's starting in 2 days time! This break, I didnt put in much effort to study. But anything needed to be completed are pretty much done.

2 weeks back... Ziyan's bday surprise.

Ziyan's vulgar.

Craziness about Mahjong.

The usual weekend clique now.

Juz b4 the 1 week break, was the Gd Fri, whic we didnt have to go to Uni. So I've gt some Lindt Bunnies for the girls. =)

That sat.... Reg asked me to go club. We havent been doin so for a long time. I didnt feel like clubbin as much as b4... but I havent seen them for so long. It was nice if I rejected. Thus I went.

Were at Reg n Lyn's hse in South Perth juz b4 clubbing. The Lion's Reg's gift for Ming.

Metros is now called "Empire". I like the name.

It wasnt as fun as b4... didnt take much photos too. But it was still a great nite out. Music was boring thou. DJ that nite was Mehul's cousin.. Mehul's their common fren from Uni and we met him there. His cousin's not a very gd DJ...?

I went hm... showered and played more mahjong at Ziyan/Jiayu hse. Freaking tired by the time I reached hm at 8.30am. They were playing since 8pm the nite b4.

Ziyan actually moved in that Thurs. ChenYen moved in juz on Wed. Since the whole week, we've been playing lots of mahjong. hehe. Sad to say... I havent been winning. BooHoo.

Tues!! A long planned shopping trip. Me n Junqi woke up late... quarrelled over smth I cant even rem anymore. But similar usual issues I guess. Washed the car aft, showered and went out. There wasnt much to buy in the City thou. I gt myself a pretty fake-snake skin wallet from Roxy and a waist belt from Valleygirl. We went hm very soon aft. Junqi as usual... got tired by the end of the aftnoon.

He has become a very naughty boy.

Roxy Wallet. I bought the waist belt in brown as well. Junqi's influence!

While on the way to pick Chenyen from her hse in Kardinya to St James, me n Junqi went to get the seafood from Universal. She wasnt ready as we expected. So we went into a nearby aquarium to have a look.. coz I know they used to sell Dogs food. Went in, there were only fishes n fishes. We were prob in there for nearly an hr. There was so many weird looking fishes... never heard nor seen before.

There was this particular fish... whic looks like a teenage frog. But much larger. Like a small dessert lizard size. Face like a fish, 4 legs which looks like frog n a lizard tail. I wanted to get 1... since it looked so odd. Hah. Junqi said, if he's nt wrong, it's a species called "WaWa fish" in chinese translation. It makes noises like a baby when it calls & get go on land for abit. Never asked the ppl in the shop what was it. Went down the other section of the shop.. and saw lots of fighting fishes! I got excited. Coz I used to want them so much... yet I duno how I should take care of them. Junqi had 1 b4... thus we decide to buy 1. Choosing a black head & of blue n red body. Since most were either red or blue. A black head, apparently, iks a better/stronger fighter than white head fighting fish. Bought dried worms for its food. Yeekss! But no choice.

I decide to call him Flappy! Coz I wanted to have a name starting with "F". In Fact, when I mentioned that we Junqi, we both schcronised & said... "F**ker". Haha. FiFa (soccer thingy) & Fillet were mentioned too. But.... nah.

Oh yea, we've got out own personal Lavender Pot now! It smellls great!

Forgt 1 more thing abt Easter... Junqi wanted to buy me a 1kg Easter Choc Egg on Thurs. Unfortunately, my car has gt lil petrol left. So he didnt dare to take it out. If not, that would be my surprise. I didnt want it thou. And chose my own 6 diff eggs choc. I sent 2 boxes of that home to Sg for my Fam & Xiaoying too. =) Postage's ex thou.

Flavours: Orange Choc, Strawberries, Dark Choc, Milk Choc with white n dark choc splashes, Pure white, Toffee Crunch.

Juz yest, the same group decide to go down somewhere for a walk. So we decide on Freo, since it was too last min to plan anywhere further. Had icey ice later that nite. Yums. Rushing out for Laksa dinner n mahjong soon.

Randomness: They decide to made this 7 pairs as 2 tai. This is HongKong style I think. 3 tais in total for that round. Yippy. 1st to create 7 pairs too... since they allowed this combo.

Round it off.... things are looking better between me n Junqi now. We tolerate each more now and dont quarrel as much.
A conver yest...

.........
Eve: U both guys.... 1 like water, 1 like hills. (Ziyan likes the sea, Jiayu like Kings Park - which is on a hill)
Ziyan: So what u like?

Eve: I like him. =) - (Junqi was beside me.)

Since that conver on msn with Shir last weekend, I felt that I opened my feelings more. Thinking positively ans let nature flow. Everything seems to fall into place again slowly... not the same but better than before.

Loving him is enough to make me happy. I shld be more contented than picking on his flaws or changes.

To be continue.... Fun in Freo.

Weekends of Fun

2008-03-15T21:30:00.010+08:00

Am at Jiayu hse now in Walpole Street. But in Ziyan's new room. Like last week, we are playing mahjong again. It's smth we all 5 Poly mates enjoys. All of us, arent even close to aquintance in Poly. But now, we are hanging out every weekend.

The very 1st weekend, Chenyen suggested that we meet up. Junqi & I thought it's weird to meet up with Ziyan since we probably havent even spoke a single word to him in the 3 years of Poly life. But whicever/ wadever.... we met. And I suggested to go to the Wildlife Park. Since meetin in City would be really boring.

Caversham Wildlife Park

Stop by at Choc Factory

Jiayu, Junqi, Evette, Chenyen, Ziyan

The wombat of 2 years ago... with Sis.

The white goat

A baby calf gt me so excited! But it kept walkin away.

This is a really good Kid. It's like my personnal pup!

So freaking cute!

Jiayu, Ziyan, Chenyen, Eve, Junqi

We left Caversham by abt 4pm. It was a freakin hot day. I've gt sunburnt! Went down to City for dinner. And decided on havin Taka, the cheap Jap food. When we finished dinner, the shops had alrdy closed. So we went to Icy Ice for some yummilicious snow!

Played cards while eating.

Pink Lady, Orea and Mango.

We ended the nite at Kings Park. Somehow, there was a large crowd down there. For wad event, still unknown. But nt long aft we left, there was fireworks. Dotz.

Anw, following weekend, mahjong and steamboat was planned!

The nite b4... the ChemEng girls decided to throw a very Post Bday dinner for Winny. At Nao. Apparently a good Ramen Store. Junqi didnt want to go... but I still had to. It's with the girls... for a purpose.

The bear costing A$55, I think it's expensive!

With Peggy

Jap Lemonade in that Blue bottle & a Huge Ramen.

And just hours back... I cooked curry for the mahjong freaks here. Me & Junqi, pretty much take turns to play. I could still entertain myself while he plays... eg now, Blogging.

In another 15mins, we gonna bring out Ziyan's cake!! His bday falls on Tues, 18 March. But we gonna have Uni... and Pre-celebration will be better den a Post. It's a surprise. =)

I was pretty upset with Junqi juz an hr or 2 b4 this. But he doesnt know. I was playing mahjong halfway.... then, Peg told me the Kwinana BP Refinery is employing 800 workers for Oct - Nov. Prob gd for out internship... However, I think the timing's kinda wrong. Coz Uni wont end till late Nov.

The point was... I asked Junqi if he would stay with me during that time. His reply, 'No, siao ah. 3 mths do wad?'. I led me to think abt alot more other things. When we were separated coz I chose to work here in Perth.. for a mth n a half extra b4 going back to Sg. During that time, he alrdy lost pretty some feelings for me. It wasnt easy, really. Since... officially, we only had juz began. Fr then, I really didnt wan to be separated from him again.

That time back in sg... I feel that he treated his frens more impt than me as well. I rem when he 1st came to Perth to study, was for me. But now that he's gt me, the initial reason is no longer there anymore.

It led me to think further.... if for the 3 mths, he's not willing to stay in Perth for me, what would make him stay when he graduated next July? He did say he will... His mum encourages as well. But..... if 3 mths boredom may kill him, how can he stay for at least another 2 years working in Perth??

Since his feelings lessen, I've been tryin means to get it back... Mayb nt hard enough. Probably, it worked too. But it's never the same as b4 anymore. I told him he changed. He thinks I think too much. But Junqi, U've stop coming in to look into my personal thoughts. U've stop caring for me like how u used to. That sensitivity, caring-ness and gentleness U used to shower me so much with.......

I dun really wan it to end... but mayb, this rship may require abit more thinking into it... than juz assuming that it's gonna work the way I wan it to be.

Leap Year

2008-02-29T18:53:00.007+08:00

The Leap Year.

It's today. 29 Feb 2008. This additional day to the year only comes once every 4 years. What's real special abt it, I duno. 366 days for this year?

Today, I tried making it special. It's Eve n Junqi's 3rd month on the 30th. Since there's none this month, I made it today. And, since.. it's the leap year.

I never really noticed this day before.. But I decided to this year. Now I'm hoping... juz hoping that everything will turn out well from this day/ year onwards. 4 years ago, I was 19. Since 2 year ago, I havent really been happy. Happiness for me was short-lived. Juz let the good cycle start running from here.

Today, I tried avoiding something too. I'm Sorry, Mum. I'm Sorry, Dad. I gave U the endless disappointments.

I'm happy today... tried making a special meal for Junqi. It wasnt very nice.. But it was the process of making it which makes me happy. I hope he liked it too... even though it's nt tt nice.
But actually, I dun think I'm really happy... since my return to Perth.

Heart-shaped Chicken Schnizel. (Hotn'spicy & Parmesan w cracked pepper)

I dun think I'll be able to hang on, if I'm without Junqi. He cant help me very much with anything I'm facing.. but he's my pillar of support.

I rem making a date with him on V day 2009. But today, I asked him... will I still spend this day with U in 4 years time? He said... Maybe.

.........................

Back in Perth

2008-02-26T19:59:00.002+08:00

Been nearly a week back here alrdy....

It's never easy Studying, Working, Owning a Car & Being a Hsewife. All the stuff to catch up in Uni, the paper work to get working & car stuff done. Waking up early & sleeping not too early. It stressing me out.

But I'll never give up.

At least... Junqi's here with me for my Mental & any lil Physical Support that He could provide me with. My Parents are back in Sg pinning all their hopes on me.

I cant give up.

Juz at least.... at least I have all of them with me. I'm going to persevere... no matter how hard it gets.

I may keep things to myself... But that's only cause, I dun wan U to worry. I dun wan Mum & Dad to worry.

Events

2008-02-16T00:13:00.013+08:00

Now, I'm sitting in my room SULKING!! This is prob the last Fri nite I can stay up late. Last Fri/weekend, left in Sg till late Dec. But there's nth for me to do! Junqi's out with his Frens to the usual Kster... Boring place. I didnt want to go. Thinking abt from next Fri onwards (all Fri nites following), I'll be slogging my heart out for the mthly allowances. *Cryssss*

Bored like SHIT. Rotting to my Death... O_o

Last post was like wad... 3 more weeks in Sg. Now, 3 more days. Freaks.

It was the CNY coming up! Thus... CHINATOWN! Since last yr, I felt addicted to going down there to squeezeee. The crowd, mood, MOCHI. As usual, $1.80 per 100g for a start. Then, drops to even $0.50 per 100g during 2-3 b4 the CNY eve.

Mini Puppets Opera Show

Chinatown CNY deco

Went to Powerhse to club with Shir n her AIA collegues. Didnt bring cam thou.. coz i didnt wan to bring a bag & my pockets would nt fit.
I rem disliking dragonfly when I 1st went. But that nite, the singers were pretty gd. Had drinks n danced thru the nite over at powerhse. Havent been clubbing for awhile now. But I still enjoyed it as much.

It was Junqi's SecSch Fren, Dave's, wedding on the following Sat (2.2.2008). I simply wanted to tack along, thus I went. That was prob the 1st wedding I went.. whic is nt my family or with my Parents. It was over at Novotel. The food was... juz ordinary.

In my hse lift

Door gifts. 2 of them.

Groom opening the Champange

Forgt his name, Dave, Junqi

His wedding was juz 4 days b4 CNY. Thus, I didnt have to wait too long.... My Fav festival of the year!

Mum was thinking of havin reunion dinner outside this year... However, most are booked. If nt, it's too ex. So we had the usual steamboat.

CNY isnt as exciting as it used to be. But I still enjoy the big gatherings... when everybody's in 1 hse. The noise... the people. Esp, with the tons of kids coming out yr by yr.

This CNY eve, I was out with Junqi. Met his frens.. whom he always meet up with on normal days and any occasions. We quarrelled this cny eve... whic is really bad start for a new year. I dun rem exactly wad happened. But it was a serious quarrel which lasted till even an hr aft we met. Missed a few sec of the fireworks at esplanade. Walked ard River AngBao... whic I only rem last went there was with my other cousins many yrs back.

CNY 1st Day

Xiayong Big Sis, Me, Xiaoying, My Sis

My Family...

The relative crowd at 3rd Aunt's place. I always love this sorta gathering.

The nieces & nephews popping out

CNY 2nd Day

SisTa!

My Fav niece so far... playing an old piano me n sis used to play with.

At hm... waiting for the cousins to come down my place.

Went to watch Sweeny Todd on the 3rd day of CNY. At nite.. was deciding this movie or AhLong. But since majority chose that, we watched it. Not realising that it's a musical. -_-

I guess the storyline was pretty cool thou. Days after watching it.. did I realised that, it's actually kinda based on a true story. Creepy~~

Met Siping & Aileen on the following Mon... a dinner at Bugis' NYDC. It was great! Gt Junqi's V day gift too. Hee..

14 Feb! Valentines' Day.

We only had a really simple dinner. But I was alrdy very happy... No nice gifts needed. No nice meals needed. Juz the best quality time spent needed.

It was definately the best V day ever.. so far for me. I didnt had gd Vdays since 1st bf. I thought he alrdy didnt love me as much. But since that day... I felt that love again. It may nt b the same as it was when he was chasing, I was more than satisfied.

The watch I gave. The bouquet I received... along with another 2 pillow long pillowcase.

It was a really Happy V day for the both of us.. even if it was the aimless walking we made.

*The joy of juz holding ur hand*

We took this photo using his HP juz b4 CNY... and I really love it.

Going back to Perth is really something none of us look forward to. But with u ard, it'll never be the same again.

People

2008-01-28T11:21:00.000+08:00

Recently, when I read blogs of old friends, random thoughts come to my mind. Somehow, I feel that... I duno them & how they're doing as much as I used to. How we used to see each other everyday in the past & talked abt anything in the world. Yet now, it may be juz some common greeting of "How are u?".

Reading blogs are a gd way of knowing each person's situation of the current moment. But I'd rather know them better by verbal conversations. I oso feel that ppl changed... I changed too. Then, I start to wonder... I prob wasnt a very gd fren to keep too. Mayb I too, didnt try harder to keep a frenship... to allow it to maintain to when it was like b4.

These days.. when I looked at group of girls in the train, whether it's 2 or 3 or 4 of them, it reminded me of people I used to hang out tgt n even takin the same train home. We do still hang out... but it's no longer liked the many joy it used to bring us.

Friends... I still rem how we 1st met, hung out, studied/lived/shopped/gossiped/Ktv-ed. No matter how time passed, how many new ppl we/I meet out there, I still deeply appreciate all of U. Hope we still can hang out & laughed like before thou.

Sounds emo. But they are... simply my thoughts.

Laziness

2008-01-22T09:54:00.000+08:00

So... I've been gone from the blog for 2 months now. Felt so lazy since Mum left. Coz there were so much to blog about. Life back in Perth, alone, was too lonely n boring for me to handle. I simply lost motivation to do anything too.

Been nearly 2 weeks that I'm back now. Had an old post typed out half way... nt completed. Yet feel like startin a new post. The flight back was long and boring. Sat beside a huge stranger who was nice enough to bring my luggage up the cabin n down again when we arrived in Sg. I smiled to myself secretly a few times. Some1 may have caught me doing so, but i didnt care. It was that silent joy I was enjoying. The moment of excitement I've been waiting for over the last 1.5 months.

Leaving Perth.

The Western Australia Coastline

I nv noticed that planes have gt such baby containing area b4.

I had a plan for Junqi. Planned for a long time... just for that nite. To surprise him on his bday. He had totally no idea I was making that plan for him. Many times we gt upset with each other over the last 1.5 months, I know he was tryin hard to accomodate to me. His frens lure him out the whole of 13th. Made him busy, n unaware of my disappearance.

Had Japanese food with my Family for dinner. Aft which, I prepared as quick as possible to see him. Brought a cake down with all the sparkle sticks poking out of it. He even thought I was some other girl, thru tt smoke! But it was all good.. so good. =)

The exhausted looking him... the Excitement bursting me

His long lasting Pri Sch Friends.

His actual Bday, is 14th Jan. So I brought him out to get his pressie! I too, has long decided on what I wanted to buy. A Braun Baffel wallet. He picked the design himself. Collected his new specs too... since the old 1 broke. I like how he looked in Specs.

Last Thurs was the very 1st time I met Shirley since my return. It was really nice seeing her. But somehow, this time, it seems alil different. I guess, it seems different for every1. It's been so long since I came back. Things changes. People will tend to drift from each other too...
I was out with Junqi in the day b4 I met Shir for dinner. Went to play with Bebe. She still rems me. Jumping hesterically around my legs.
We had desserts at the TiongBahru market too. And they were the yummiest that I've seen! Fell in love with them immediately. Now, I had to have the desserts everytime I go down to TiongBahru.

The so colourful and yummy desserts.

At his house.

Bebe wanting to kiss him.

Met Shir at Orchard aft.. Didnt know wad to do, so end up we went shopping. Bought a dolly black shoe and a brown longsleeve top. Somehow, I gt influenced by Junqi (he likes brown)... n liking lots of things in brown too.

That nite juz b4 ending the meeting with Shir, she told me she felt that I've grown older. -_-
Like old granny i guess. Coz I talked slower n wadever... I guess I was simply tired tt nite. But Junqi told me, I'm nt as active as b4 too. Wad happened?! Aging??

I rem being the hyper-active, happy-go-lucky person. But somehow.... I'm losing it. I guess, it's the 1.5mths in Perth. I didnt like it.. really didnt. If no1 else is gonna b in Perth... I'm not going to stay there alone too! Peggy & Cal was ard in fact. But how often could we meet? Work timings are different too.

I've been pessimistic too. I need to get back that optimisium. I know I am now... I'm too used to ppl being ard me. I think... in Perth, I'm forced to get serious, b matured. I have to settle everything on my own. Be disciplined n responsible. I know how difficult money comes by... and juz cant spend n club n play like no1's biz. I wan to come hm more at nite... Wan to spend more time with my Fam this time round. Even if we dun make conversations, it's their pressence whic makes the difference.

Mum's home cooked food, Dad reading the papers n carrying his pot of tea ard the hse wherever he's gonna be for the rest of the nite & Sis watching Tv with me while we make random chats when we're alone. It many many of those small lil gestures, many ppl dun notice anymore. But, who else can be like me, who only sees my Fam the most 4mths in a yr.

The nite, while speaking to Sis abt her marriage whic might happen end of next year, I suddenly realised, she's gonna move out of the hse! That really hit me. I suddenly felt really sad... Sis is nt gonna be hm every nite I come hm aft marrying. She says she would still come back often. But it's nt the same anymore. I shld b glad.... but I'll really miss her. Then, I thought abt myself marrying off too. Whic means Mum n Dad will be the only ppl left in this hse! I really dun wan tt. I dun wan them.. to be staying alone.

At least for now, everyday is a happy day. =)

Batam was the next trip I looked forward so much to even while in Perth. But days b4 Me, Junqi, Xiaoyign & Andy went, me n junqi were hesistating alot to go or nt. Coz there were bad feedbacks from ppl, that Batam has gt nth at all. The ferry tix down was $35. Might nt be worth to go aftall. But we did anw. And, I really enjoyed myself. Bought an amt of things too... thou Junqi didnt. Heh.

Boarding the ferry from Sg, habourfront.

Reaching Batam. That's MegaMall!

Walking tt bridge between the custom n MegaMall

Lunch Time. Not too nice.. all bones. But it's cheap.

Fruit Punch

That's J.co donuts. Nt allowed to take photo. So I hid behind Junqi to take. They r really yummy. Costin abt sg$1 each.

Went hm pretty late tt nite... was feeling really tired. Then I realised, there were more donuts at hm! Mum n Dad actually bought some from the donut factory too. So I had a gd 3 days of donuts for breakfast. But there're all so yummy.

Went to Xiaoying's hse to dye hair the next day. Chose a Reddish purple kinda colour while Xy gt a copper red/brown. Didnt turn out as red as I hoped. So I dyed it again days later... with Sis' help. It gt redder... but I still wan it abit more thou. Heck it... waste money.

These days... me n Junqi simply did nth. So we juz slacked ard wherever. Went to swim, cycle, shopping. And hoping nt to waste too much money too. But somehow, I spent alot alrdy. Tt few hundred bucks I brought back, didnt last me a long time. Still have some... but nt much left.

Just on Tues.... Cycling in East Coast! It was such a joy. I cant cycle infact... but a 2 ppl bicycle... Hehehe.

Bedok Jetty.

Junqi says.... this patch of sandcastle used to be much bigger

The beach castle. Open on weekends for families to rent/buy stuff to build sandcastles?

There's a string of blue jelly between our lips.

It's been a really joyous n carefree 2 weeks. I'm so looking forward to CNY now. I've always loved CNY. May nt be as fun as it was when we were all kids. May pass as quickly as many other occasions. But CNY will always be my fav celebration of the year.

I bought nail art thingy from Orchard yest too. 3D stick on kind. Yippy. Cant wait to do it. I love doing nail art too. Going down Chinatown tonite... it opened last Fri. Buying those mochi. Will be going again with Fam sometime next week again.

U know how emotions can be affected by people as well?

Wad ppl say, ppl do, how ppl react to u. Esp if that person plays a part in ur life which matters. Such emotions can get really good. Yet such emotions can frustrates me alot. So much that I wish I could control it. I can get frustrated easily. That makes a really bad me, seriously.

Hate it when I mind so much of the every lil' thing some1 does. Hate it when I feel like crying so much when I feel strong xtreme emotions, i.e sad/ angry/ frustrated. It's good to control ur feelings. But I wont rather let them out.. of coz with some self-control.. so that things dun get too serious n regrets come later. But aft the whole thing... I'll always feel happier.

Somehow, these days, I start to realise why I would sing. Out of random reasons... whether studying, slacking, while dancing, blah.. It's coz I'm HAPPY. Any other emotions, I would be really quiet. No matter how bad my voice can be. Like y at times... I wan to go to the KTV, yet sometimes, I just dun feel like.

Havent gt much mood to study... Pushed myself to get that mood. Yet I dun wan to feel the stress. Sigh...

I asked myself... Why do I mind so much? I wan to not feel how I'm feeling. I dun like being weak. I wan to be in control of myself and not be easily affected by other sources. But it's so difficult. From Goong 2 the Korean drama, that evil man found out the weak point of the commoner prince. That has become my weakness too.

Work.

It's been good. Just slicing bread with the machine and packing. Pretty relax... and enjoying every aroma coming out from the bread and cakes. Gt a few cuts here n there. Not too sure where exactly they came from. But left my 2 poor hands with lots of tiny scars. Some of which... hurts.

Sat morning, this other lady, I forgt her name, ask me to label some 'best before' on the bread packs. Wanted to teach me but I told her I did it the day b4. So I knew how they work. Petra responded "Yea, she did it yest, didnt she?" Continued mumbling to the lady, "She's my Day Queen. Sandra would stand there n do nothing." Smiles. That made my day, really. I was determine to do better. It was a regconition. And then, I was LATE for work this morning! Cursed. Work start at 5am. Alarm set at 4.05am. It didnt ring!! I woke up by the phone call Petra made at 5.40am. Shocked! The alarm was still on thou. Angry! Reached by 6am.. Wasted 1hr Pay. -.-

Need to buck up so so much now!! For exams. For the other matter, trying/ hoping to suppress. I think alot. But I dun wan to be upset anymore. I really really mind alot. That also means the amt of importance....

Emotional week

2007-10-27T22:29:00.000+08:00

Been a emotional week.

SMILES

1. Getting the job & going through the induction fine. Will be starting work on Monday. Petra, the manager of Bakery, gave me more hrs than I expected. But it's still within my 20hrs of work thou. So I guess it's fine.

2. I've gt the CAR! It's the Mazda 121 Funtop. From another website infact. Not the same as the 1 I saw initially. Lied to my Parents A$400 cheaper than it shld be. But yea... No choice. No get the car. heh. Really love it. The dealer called the car... a lil red bubble. Gave me the inspiration to call it Bubble! LOvE LoVe~~

Diagonal View

Back view. Sexy wee-u-wee Butt.

Side view... short, tiny, red car.

FROWNS

1. This car was placed in Morley car center. Abt 40mins away fr Curtin. Kept tryin to find somebody who could drive me down. But there was no1. None free! Sux. Luckily Peggy drive to Uni that day. Had to call any1 I could think of who might be able to send me down. Much THANKS to her. Drove me down for 3 times to view the car & everything. I gt it by Fri anw. So it's all good. =D

2. Havent done studying for the week. Sigh. Busy with the car. It's very bad. Exams coming soon!!

Mum will be coming over on the 16th Nov since her Doc's on leave too. I excited over it. Yet, Probably wont be able to Party when she's here.. hur hur.

Oh yes, went down to Carousel to buy some accecorise for my Bubble. Wanted to get a car seat cover. But my car's back seat has gt head rest... which no car seat covers have. Thus... I'll juz have to remain with that furry cover I alrdy have in the car. It's actually not that bad looking.. juz afraid it might be dirty.
Got a stearing wheel cover. It's Ladybirds n yellow flowers. Bright & pretty to look at. Matches my maroon car well too. Got a Ambi Pur 'For Her' air refresher too. Smells really gd. I would continue buying that the next time round too. Gt 2 white pillows for the car. Myself & the front passenger seat. $4 each only.. gd buy. Happy Happy. =)

So... it's time to concentrate on studying alrdy. Study study harder!!
Back to studying...

Problems

2007-10-23T09:01:00.000+08:00

Sigh.

Not too smooth these few weeks. Yet could be good news.

1. Relationship's over for a few weeks now.

2. Rest of the Mid-sem grades gt back. Isnt that bad... But could be much better. At least... an improvement.

3. Been searching for job. Coles been rejecting me.
Lucky thing, VicPark Coles called me on last Thursday, willing to employ me. Yeah!
Did the online induction just yesterday and called them. Earned some salary for the time doing the 6hrs course. =D Waiting for another called for the "live" induction.

4. Searching for a car. Parents aint very willing about giving me a car... not much cash to spare. My Uni fees are alrdy so much more for them to handle. But Dad's saying that if the car's no more than A$3.5K, it'll be ok. Sent enquiries for 3 cars alrdy. Hyundai Excel (5 and 3 doors), Mazda 121. Love the Mazda model... thou it's an old 1993. Tiny cars are so cute.. in Maroon somemore, close to red. Make a guess... which car would I eventually buy?

5. Catching up on Uni study. So much that I dont know. Need to score alot higher to get better grades.

6. Not going back Sg for the summer hols... till mayb in 2008. Want to be back by mid Jan. Possible? Need to earn more moolah. Needs loads loads loads!! *ching ching eyes* $_$

Actually, Dad even ask me to go back to Sg instead of working here. In Sg, I wont need a car. But I wont want to give up this job. It took me so hard & so long to get it. 1 of the highest part time pay ard somemore. But how much? More than A$15 aft tax is far good alrdy. *Prays*

*Prays* even harder for the Exams to pass smoothly....

Need to faster finish the projects... Mafan. I'm so dumb at them.

Birthdays

2007-10-14T18:36:00.000+08:00

On Fri, Dr Hongwei Wu officially announced the end of the lects for Process System Analysis. Yippy! I know Thermo's gonna stop soon too. Only left with the not too nice Process Heat Transfer & troublesome Chem 102.

Went to Coles VicPark for interview on Sat morning. Hope it'll go well thou.. it seems ok. They'll call by Mon if I get in I guess. And if so, would have to stay in Perth longer for work. It's to keep the job... n earn more extra cash.

Another weekend

2007-10-07T13:24:00.000+08:00

During class on Fri, some thoughts came to my mind.

As I was on the way out for jogging on Thurs evening, I overheard the landlord telling the lil ger that he's going to bring her to the Royal Show on Sat. He sounded excited... knowing his kid would sound as excited or more. That reminded me of my Dad. How he would bring me to the Pasarmalam when I was younger. Coz I loved Pasarmalam so much. It was that simple joy that kids would feel. Whether it's Mum or Dad, I have both who I enjoy as much time with alone. I smiled as I jogged. =)

Another was abt the Process System Analysis mid sem test. I did super badly for it. Half the course peeps too. But mine, was careless... so super careless. Angry leh!!! Exams gt to work so so hard for it. If nt, I'm nt gonna score. That pekchekness lasted for awhile during the lecture.

The Fri was off to Subi Markets & Northbridge to get out cheaper meat n veggies. The sun was freaking hot... gt me a bad headache. But I still love Spring!

Went down to the Royal Show on Sat again. With Peg... not as enjoyable as the last. Things happened. All the way in the Show, she was having a premonition that her car's gonna get clamped. It did. It spoiled the whole mood of the alrdy slightly boring outing. The sun was freaking hot too! Gt burnt! Red red arms... nt pretty. Extra cash needed.. Blahz! Expensive $120 for the removal of the clamp. N yes... I'm included in paying for it.

Oh yes, had to pay $22 for the tix instead! Paid $10 the last time... silly cashier girl. Coz she said that's for High Sch students only. Pui~

The tix.

Peg & Eve

Peg & Nil with the twisted fries.

The $5 WillyWonker Hat. (Peg's)

The Royal Show pretty much spoilt my mood... contridictary. But ya, I still love it & will still go for it next yr. It made me hesitate abt going for Lynette's course ball. Paid $65 for it. Moolah Moolah.... somebody pls give me moolah. Job Job Job. (Another Coles interview coming up I guess. Gt the email, waiting for the call. But it's so hard to get their job!)

The Star bought there. So lovely!

The magic sticker. I so love Tinkerbell! I shld have bought more of them... Only when I open it up that I know it can b reused!

Club Rad Ball
John de Baun Ballroom
The Melbourne Hotel

The Ball tix. Pretty.

Champange.

The 4 Ladies.

What wore... is Lyn's skirt. Heh. I look so fat.

Some how... we started taking retard photos.

The Indians. We gt the stars fr the table... somehow ppl threw it all ard.. n started playing with it.

I like this photo. Lyn & Eve

More photos are with Lyn. Load more the next time round. Last Mid sem test on Tues... Chemistry 102. Next Sat's event.... Clem&Cal 22 @ The Shed.

4 more weeks of Uni

2007-10-04T16:38:00.000+08:00

It's alrdy the end of the week break... n about the end of another week of Uni. 8 out of 12 weeks gone.

Met Peggy to study on Mon n Wed of the week break. Didnt study much.. didnt study fast. But it was still pretty fulfilling. Met the ChemEng girls for movie & lunch on Tues. The movie "Stardust" was great!! I love the Star (Claire Danes).

A young man named Tristan (Charlie Cox) tries to win the heart of Victoria (Sienna Miller), the beautiful but cold object of his desire, by going on a quest to retrieve a fallen star. His journey takes him to a mysterious and forbidden land beyond the walls of his village. On his odyssey, Tristan finds the star, which has transformed into a striking girl named Yvaine (Claire Danes). However, Tristan is not the only one seeking the star. A king's (Peter O'Toole) four living sons - not to mention the ghosts of their three dead brothers - all need the star as they vie for the throne. Tristan must also overcome the evil witch, Lamia (Michelle Pfeiffer), who needs the star to make her young again. As Tristan battles to survive these threats, encountering a pirate named Captain Shakespeare (Robert De Niro) and a shady trader named Ferdy the Fence (Ricky Gervais) along the way, his quest changes. He must now win the heart of the star for himself as he discovers the meaning of true love.

It was a pretty boring day thou. But I so LOVE the movie. Love such fantasy shows.

Thurs & Fri was pretty much slacking at home. Bakin cake, studying. Baked 4 cakes over the whole week. ChocChip Butter cake, choc on choc pudding cake, Lemon Cheesecake & Choc mint slice. The Lemon cheese cake was the BEST! The only 1 I took pics of as well.

Sat was meant for studying... since there's the plans for the Perth Royal Show on Sat, in the end, I was slackin all day. Clubbing at Ruby Room again that nite. Not as gd as last week. Peg broke her heel... we spent most of the time tryin to fix it. Kel brought his 2 female frens along. Winny was with her grp of high sch girls.

Perth Royal Show on Sun!!

It was as gd as before. But even better! Coz I won my 1st own huge soft (slightly hard) toy! I thought the fireworks were better last yr thou. Everything else was nearly the same. Lots of Fun still.

The entrance.

The concession Tix. There wasnt this concession 1 last yr. Adult tix was $22. This concession is only $10! Last yr, I had to pay $20 for entrance.

The great company.

The game stalls & bumper car.

The only "ride" we did was the bumper car. Didnt play any other exciting rides this yr. But I like the stuff I wont this yr, much better than last's. The bear with movable joints, a small hanging dice, the large yellow duck.

We made this for dinner that nite. Didnt wan to spend xtra on food.

This is a choc castle. I so feel like eating up the whole thing!

Stupid Cal.. gt bf liao, become like that.

The nite looks lovely.

My huge winning! Love the duck.

The fireworks were always the ending of each day of the Royal Show. The ChemEng girls were saying of going this Sat. Or mayb just Peggy. Coz she said I made it sound so fun. But seriously, it is! Just that she didnt quite enjoy it as much as I did the last 2 years she was here.
I love love love Perth Royal Show.

The break was over... Uni started. Had Thermo test today. Sux. So many ppl were copying as well. Went for Coles job interview on Tues. Called up the manager today.. since he said he would call. I didnt get it either. Bad day! Tired! Felt so drained aft the ppl. Checked my Process System Analysis tests marks today. Understood y I got such low marks. Careless. Bad luck.

Crysss.... Can today's Thermo test be a miracle, score well or fine enough, just to Perk me up a lil more?
Last term test for the Sem... on Tues. Chem 102. Organic Chem.... CRYS.

Grrrr... nt happy. But... My Star =).

Ruby Room!

2007-09-23T21:15:00.000+08:00

Realised last nite that I actually have gt another trip out with the ChemEng girls. They arranged a DimSun lunch whic Kelvin couldnt make it. He so love to eat DimSum.

It was havin the lunch... n end of the outing.
At a place called... some Garden Restuarant I think... not bad dimsum. Nice eggtarts!

Angel, Winny, Zhaoying, Eve, Peggy
I think Peg looks nice with her hair bun up.

Went Ruby Room last nite. 2nd time there... n really love it! Music's good all nite. Metros' music goes gd n bad on n off.
The same girls were there.. except tt Sheron isnt. Peggy brought a new girl to club tgt... Anastacia.

Angel & me waiting for Zhaoying to come pick us up.

At Ruby.

While waitin for Peggy!

Peggy & her Sis's fren's Sis, Anastacia.

The ladies of the nite.

The boys: Kelvin, Ravie & Ben. Hadi was there too. Wonders...

The nite ended at abt 4am... when most started to go hm. Thou some alrdy left earlier. Full of broken glasses on the floor. Couldnt get them off my feet... So I swept them with my hands. Got a cut. Blah.... Oh yea, some caucasian guy say I'm gorgeous. =)

Gossip for the nite: Ravie n Anastacia had a thing going on. hmmm....

Clubbin again next week...? Mayb. Gonna study most of the days during this week break. I better do.

Long hols

2007-09-14T15:03:00.000+08:00

Like a really long Time since I last blogged. The piled up of events & the lost of internet (infact, the blockage of phoneline kinda) caused all the inconvenience for a week. Lost 4th and only got it back on wed (12th). It's good in a way, so Aaron the Ahole cant use it. Heh. He's a super GB sucker! Luckily he's moving out on 26th. Hope the next hsemate will be much better. Not another not too considerate & without self-initiative hsemate. Gonna be 2yrs in this hse alrdy. When Gerald came, he made me realised how much more I've piled the room.

Mandurah - 31th, 1st Sept

The 1hr drive down... with my rented yellow Hyundai Getz!

Regina said Cicerallos at Mandurah is nicer than Freo's. But.. Hmm... I dun think so. N loads of seneric pics by the river.

Went to the Marapana Wildlife Park while waiting for the rest of the group to reach Mandurah. Tt koala on the left has gt no ears! Large male koalas fight to gain the leader position by bitting each other's ears. That 1... gt infected aft someTime. And the vet had to cut off his ears. heh. He looks cute thou!

Went fishing that evening when the rest arrived. Dinner at an Italian restuarant. The choc milkshake was FABULOUS!
The nite ended with drinkin games. But I was so tired... I simply dozed off.. no matter how noisy they were. With some half drunkards screamin ard. Eyes shut, ears shut.

Breakfast the next morning! Prepared by Reg, Lyn, John.

Sat the "lok kok" boat. Each person was abt $5... Best thing was, we could drive it ard on our own. Went into 'canals' of the river where rich ppl stays. The houses are so nice n almost all has gt their own boats.

Serpertine Falls. A lil mini water fall, which I dun quite expected. I thought it would be much bigger. $9 per car to enter. It's still cool thou. I left earlier den the rest... Had to rush off to pick Gerald boy when he arrives at 3pm that afterNoon (25 Aug).

That nite he arrived, we both went clubbing with my ChemEng girls. It was great! Couldnt drink as much... coz I had to drive. But on the way, we got lost for awhile.... n I simply couldnt wait to get hm. KO.

Picnic the next day. Had to wake earlier to make the sushi rolls. Yawns. But every1 loved it. =D

Love the pic below.... It was off to Bido hse in the late afternoon. Most left. Only me, Gerald, Kelvin n Zhaoying went over to Bido place to play 'Twister'. Seems like being in Perth, lots of them likes to play this.

Gerald's 1st time playing it... but he was pretty gd. I sux.

Went City n shopping... like 3 times tt week he came. Lots of sales & bought quite a few clothings. It was all gd thou. I love IcyIce since I 1st tried it... Sg shld have such dessert. Ice kachang but with flavoured ice (Peanut, Mango, Coffee, Strawberry.....) Soft n cold n yummy!

Margaret's River (MR) on Wed! It was a long 3hrs drive. Not totally a smooth ride... But at least we got there & back safely. It was raining quite abit.... n the inside of the car keep foggin up. Dangerous...

At last we made it to our destination.... Adamsons Riverside Accomodation. I would recommend it to any1 who'll b spending the nite at MR. Chilled for awhile n checked out the spa ensuite room. Nice!

Went down to Cape Lavander 1st... Had a meal, which actually wasnt v fantastic. But the salad had some lavander scent in it. Whic was so refreshing!

Then, the choc n cheese factory (where the rainbow appeared), Candy Cow (my Fav!), n a melting pot studio. They made really nice glass products. But so expensive thou. Not many ppl are doin such art anymore I guess.

They had Coles there whic opens till 7pm. Bought some frozen food, borrowed DVDs from the acommodation n rested thru the nite. Roosters started calling at 6am till 8+am when we woke.... Noisy, yet so natural. That feeling was juz great. It's like a holiday in another country.

In the toilet.

I love the Junkies I bought!

The next day..

Decide to go down to the caves, lakehse n farm. Lake Cave was the very 1st stop.... It's the nicest of the caves there, as told. A pretty small cave, yet nicer than Jewel Cave.

On the way down to the Jewel Cave. Had no intensions to go down to the Jewel Cave actually... since I've been there.. when I was 10. I dun think they would change very much. But aft the Lake Cave (Gerald's 1st time in a cave), he wanted to go to the Jewel Cave so much. So.... off we went.

It's nice.... But nt as nice. But at least we've gt the couple photo taken in there.

Cape Leeuwin Lighthse! It wasnt very much fantastic. But the view was nice. That's all about it. Heh. $10... nt worth.

The pretty detailed description of the lighthse.

Last stop, Berry Farm. Bought a Passionfruit wine for my parents. Hope they like it thou. Nth much in the farm. Went down CandyCow the last time as we headed back to Perth. Decided to buy more fudge for the ChemEng girls.

Shld have left by 4pm, so it wont b too dark b4 we reach our destination home. By it was 5pm when we were only heading out the Bussell Highway.

He could still smile... coz we enjoyed so much. It was the beginning of the tiring journey hm. We were both exhausted. Reached back in Perth, both tired n hungry n needed to pee.

After dinner at Makan Makan, that's him within the next 30mins later...

His Last 2 days in Perth......

Woke up the next day feeling fine again. Went down to meet City n Garden City for the day.

On sat, met the Engineering peeps for Dimsum n headed down to Freo. As usual, ate the Fish n Chips.

Last 2 pics were taken on his last hr in Perth. I was pretty sad, affected. Aft sendin him off, I had to head down to City to return the car. I went back hm alone... faced the empty room he stayed in for a week. Everything was gone. The only thing he left in the hse, was his OralB mouthwash n toothbrush. I couldnt stop crying. It was like I felt so much again. It was so so empty. Frankly, I really hated tt feeling. I didnt feel gd the whole day.... not a single bit.

Lucky thing was that sch starts the next day... I had my friends. So, feeling better wasnt that difficult n didnt take tt long.

It's Officially the start of the new week of break again. Lots of studying to catch up. Grades dropped quite alot. It really sux. And I havent gt a job since mid last yr. Dropped abt 7 resumes in City n Carousel. Been 2 weeks alrdy. None called me!! Am I that bad??

There'll be plans for the week, other den studying. The ChemEng gers wan to club, shop, play. The long waited Perth Royal Show's coming up!!! Cant wait... Next Sat. But, I dun wan next sat to come so soon too.... means weekbreak had ended, 5 more weeks of Uni n it'll be Exams! Sux, No time!

Gd news for the day.... Coles accepted my application n hopefully, goes thru the branch n some1 calls me up for interview. It's a Dawnfill job.... meaning from 4am-10am. For the pay n the lact of ppl who r willing to hire me, I'm desperate n will take it.

For now.... Piority:

1) Uni

2) Work

3) Any other thing....

1st Break coming up!

2007-08-22T19:18:00.000+08:00

Somehow... I feel I could make myself busier than ever before.

Gerald pissed me off so much tt nite.. nites back. So frustrated tt I could pull all my hair out. In other cases for other couples, 1 could have simply ended it n b hard hearted n let everything be over. But I understood his worries & insecurities. I was often in his shoes for past relationships, isnt it?

How issit like... to 2-time & have 2 people by ur side for u anytime, U will nt get hurt. I wanted to say... U will never get hurt. But it's nt "never". It's a complicated matter & it not smth I wan to experience again. When only a choice is allowed. 2 choices would be troubling.
But at the same time... u get the best of 2 worlds. It's not a long term investment thou.

From U, I would expect more. Be demanding. Wan things my way. If only u can make me happy, I will be with u. Isnt it how it goes. The more smth is in demand, the higher its value gets. Works this way for the human world... anywhere, anything. I got greedy, I can take u for granted. For the better good of myself... I wan to change tt thou.

Thermo Mini test's on tmr!! Yet to study 1 more chpt & do some tutorial problems. Open book... nt usually the case thou. Hope MingAng be nicenice... I still love ChemEng. =)

Aft that... Events coming up!! Yippy!!

Fri: Mandurah with Lyn, Reg, Cal.... more n more peeps.
Sat: Back from Mandurah, Pick Gerald boy up from the airport.
Sun: Picnic with ChemEng peeps!
Mon - following Sun: A week of FUN with my Singapore Boy.

*Prays for Thermo*

2 weeks in Uni

2007-08-10T17:50:00.000+08:00

Been 2 weeks in Uni alrdy. 1st week was simply gettin used to the new timetable & time didnt pass too quick. This week, it really flew.

In lectures here & there, I do drift off.. Suddenly day-dreaming alil. Dozing off in class isnt uncommon too, for some reason. I stayed awake mostly last sem. Am I slacking alrdy? Too lazy to update blog too. But sometimes, I know it's such a gd place to vent.

While day-dreaming... this random thought came to my mind. I realised how much a lil Ger I was or am still, to my parents. Rem hating Perth so much Sem2 2006. Dragged myself all the way back here. Sick on my 1st week. Felt like puking each time I coughed. Had stomach flu in the middle of the Sem during 1 of the tuition free week too. Mum came online to talk to me nearly every nite den... I cried alot, alone. Depressed, was I? How come there's so much ups & downs for me being away? So much thoughts & emotions. So much more than wat Sis experienced. She ever commented.. "I just dont voice out as much as U do." Infact, I'll be away from home 2 yrs more than she did. I do enjoy the freedom.. As again & as usual, I hate the loneliness.. & still hating it. Mayb this is y I voice out. I need attention. I cant be left alone.. while Sis can be. And much more indepedent than me.

Pretty bad start of the weekend I should say. It's Fri, yet many things happened.

1st week of Uni, found out that there's a Heat Transfer lab.. whic 1 of the girls thought some other girls would tell me abt it. Whicever.... the lab sessions is not enough in the 1st place. Sux. Thus, Dr Rupa decide to have another new session created.. for me & the other 20 odd students. Grrr... with no1 I know. 2hrs of lab session. Luckily... it's just 2hrs thou.

Skipped the Chem102 lecture... Too long to wait for the lect. Aft 1.5hrs of slacking, another 1.5 hrs to go. Such waste of time... Went hm under the rain. With an umbrella, still drenched & tryin to avoid speeding cars splashin pools of water by the road side.

Came hm & received an sms from Calynn saying she's going to Subiaco market with Regina. I wanted to go.. But she smsed me too late. "I'm going to Subi with Reg. Anythin u wan me to help u buy?" .... "i'm going.." meaning that she is but nt yet isnt it? Called her... and she's alrdy in the city. Whic is 15mins away fr home. Ok, fine, cant make it there for me alrdy. I slept.. she came hm, unpacked & left. I woke, msn her if we are going down to Coles the next day, Sat morning, her reply "Alrdy went just now." Fine. She told me nth abt it too. I need to buy some things fr there. Reason for nt telling being.... "Sorry, I was rushing." Does a call or sms takes up tt much time?

So.. I'm going down to buy groceries myself tmr. Sux. Yucky day. Been raining since I woke this morning.. all till I reach hm & much after. Feeling tempremental.. pekchek. Just would simply get pissed over anything today. Every lil thing counts... & they do adds on.

Enough of nagging...... Updates of the past 2 weeks.

1st weekend back in Perth... Huiyi has left Perth for good a week+ ago.

Eve, HuiYi, Cal

The new Sg/Perth Boys

Glorious food. Yummy Cicerellos.

A week of Uni passed slowly. But the weekend was great. Lunch with Reg, Lyn & the others. Dinner with the ChemEng girls, then clubbing. =D Ruby Room was simply too good! Metros was bad tt nite thou... due to some event thingy.

The Korean BBQ. Only this certain Chicken & the cheese cake was gd.

Katie love Korean food.

Babes at dinner.

BayGie, the bday girl.

Chocolate Boy!

The dinner gang.

Ruby Room!

Abt 11.30pm, they came to pick me. Off to Metros. Was bad. Reached back in Ruby at 2am. All got intoxicated till 4.30am.

Metros 18+ & Ruby's entrance chop.

It's 16 weeks more to SG. Time flies... I dun quite wan to get old. Dun wan to get into working life. Just wan to enjoy my Life thru..... But tt's so not possible.

As many clothes as I own currently, I still love shopping & wishes for more. I wanna go shopping... Y does shopping make me feel so good?

Ahh... yes. 2 NTU students came over to Curtin ChemEng this sem for exchange program. Asked the girl wad she think of Curtin, her comment "It's so relax here! =)" What's going on in my brain "O_o" Alrightyzz... It is prob. Compared to SG's education system. But still, it's only the 1st 2 weeks here, Lady. Shall see what she scores later on man. U know y it's so relax? There's no Kaisu-ism.

Winter Hols

2007-07-31T17:09:00.000+08:00

Back to Uni alrdy. Been 2 days.... So lazy to blog for the past 1 mth. Super duper cold tonite... with the wind & rain.

Many things happened over the past 1 mth. Gd & bad.. I probably duno how to handle personal matters very well. Needing advice yet nt heeding it when given. I work my way, go my way. Just as long.. I'm nt the 1 being hurt. Lots of guilt. Contridicted myself many times. Selfish me appeared many times. A choice had to be made.. made it. Keep to it.

Updates in Sg.

Clubbing with Shir & Fang.

Was sick that nite. Down with a fever that very evening. But alrdy agree to Shir alrdy... thus I went. Drank some vodka... n felt super floaty. Gosh. Bad combi of panadol & alcohol.

Dun rem wat else happened between...

But Gerald's POP on 11th July.

Like how he look in his Uniform... but he's abit too small to look 'drooly' enough. haha.

The ground & the crowd.

Neatly packed. That POP thingy... guess every1 in army, police, whicever.. would have done this.

His bunch of gd bunkmates.

Next day... the boys were free.. Thus, KTV at TPY it was.

Doreen... My junior from PlMGSS. So happen to be GF of Gerald's best mate in there, Alvin.

The boys' insanity & childishness.

Things went pretty stagnant aft that. Left 2 more weeks in Sg. Results came out.. was worried. But anyhow, everything gt thru...

Turning point only came 1 week b4 my return to Perth... Lost for more words now. Pictures shall do the talking.

That Thurs b4 I'm leavin (on Sat), Baby took the afternoon leave & Fri as well.. Just to acompany me. Nth seriously fun... But was a great way for us to have better communication & contacts again.

The yummy Mache! Had the most yummy crepes too. =)

Fri...

Teppanyaki in Food Republic in Wisma.

I'm glad we went out... I'm glad U gave me tt surprise. Bringing me to FarEast to buy the lil chain dolls. The chinese Groom & Bride. I love that! At least U appreciate it now...

More updates on Perth the next time round... Tired. Oyasumi...

More updates

2007-06-25T00:53:00.000+08:00

Hmmm... I realised I forgt to put in an impt event. I burst my Dad's tyre. The front left 1... think I simply gt too close to the kurb(however it's spelled). Scratched the side & ta da. Felt weird drivin it. Sux feeling. Luckily with the help of JQ & the taxi driver. Super kind soul. It was fixed with a Mini spare tyre & i drove back hm. Called Dad to tell him.. Luckily, his reaction wasnt as big as I thought it might be. I paid for the tyre too. Sigh... But he changed 2 of them instead thou.

Still having that confuse feeling. Will keep havin it.. He told me his parents need an office girl for their company. Since I'm free... so they r employing me. It's quite a gd deal.. coz I can choose if I really dun wanna go work. heh. Pay's reasonable enough too. Many ppl tell me it's gonna complicate matters. But we r juz worker & boss rship isnt it? Even if they dun employ me, they probably wan some1 else too. Watever... I'm working there anw. Commercing... Tuesday.

Kammie's Bday today. I just found out this morning thou. When Gerald's mum sms me abt it. Not much photos taken. Some Italian Resturant in the midst of the neighbourhood.

For some reason... my face juz looks so white now.

Tonite... I realised something. If a girl has gt lots of suitors, how she determines who she wans, nt juz matter on how comfortable whic guy can make her feel. But also making her feel gd abt herself. Nt just the sweet talking. But how genuine & sincere he is in his words. Even if it's flirting or sweet talking, the ger must not catch it. And girls being as unreasonable as they can get, any lil thing the guy do can piss her off greatly. For the least/slightest/practically non-existant reason. Turn off. I'm a Girl! Even if it's the truth, shldnt u try to change ur words to make it sound better & make her feel better. I know who can do that... & who cant.

I'm a petty, sensitive, unreasonable lady. The thoughts are so random... See how long I can take all these.

Back in SG

2007-06-24T12:09:00.000+08:00

Back in SG now.. wasnt as excited b4. Reason back, isnt the same as b4 as well. I'm so screwing things up that sometimes, I could juz suffocate on the spot. Mum is turning me crazy too. Keep questioning me abt things. She duno abt me.. esp when she dislikes him. She wont listen to any crap. Just as long as I'm nt with him.. But isit as simple as that? Mum questions me so much, wanting to track my every move. I juz wanna SCREAM.. aft whic, I will feel like crying.

I juz wan to scream at her & tell her, " Cant u just leave me alone to do my own things?? U r suffocating me & U noe I will nv tell u the truth. Coz U cant accept the truth!! U noe I will lie... so stop asking me to lie to U even more!"

Emotional rollar coaster since I've return. Weather so hot... it makes me feel frustrated easily too. I used to smile so much back here. It's nt tt much anymore... so many problems to face. So many lies to make.
I wan to be left alone.... just alone to breathe at times. Breathe....

Back to Perth... the last few days aft exams.

Went to KTV, the very nite I finished my last pp. Been a long time. Pool aft.. I was like a bird out of cage .

Threesome

Katie!!

Choi Kua...

Obscene I know... but it's a pretty picture!

And.... juz simply lots of cam-whoring.

Went to Carousel the next day for awhile. Sheron joined me... since she was free & bored too. Nth much to buy. Wanted to find pretty clothes for Mum & some close peeps. But it's Winter.. there's just nth.
Laser game at nite with Reg, Ming, Clem, Neil, Rajiv & Cal. 2 games for A$19... 20mins each. It's so fun!! Play til muscleache for 3 whole days, due to the continous squarting action to avoid being shot. Like it better den Paintball... wanna play it again!
Went to have Icey Ice after. It's like ice-kacang. But much nicer! The ice shaving has gt their personal flavours in it too. A lil expensive for a pile of ice.. But it's yummy.

Icey ice.

Peanut & Mix bowl of milk ice & fruits

Ming & Reg's mango & tiramisu

The fun didnt end there... went to Neil's hse for a game of heart attack. Gt hm ard 1... n brought me a super huge headache. Rated the worse of the last 2 yrs... fr wad I can rem.

Next day, off shopping with Cal! We havent been shopping for quite awhile alrdy. It was Carousel, City, then Belmont. Bought a nice nice jacket & waist belt... & there was nth alrdy! Yawns... I'm waiting for Spring to arrive.

It's a row of shops in there

See my puffy eyes..? Havent gt enough slp since Exams...

This tunnel juz looks like Sg's. =)

21st Morning... just b4 I left, went off to Vic park for some last min items to buy. Hm to pack up, cooked & do watever last min stuff. Cal sent me to the airport.. with Kelvin & Hafiz too. She still in Perth now thou. With Aaron still pissing her off. Hah. She'll only be hm next weekend.

Reaching the Perth International Airport.

Bidding farewell till her return to SG.

Plane taking off.. the Sun just looks so pretty to me.

Sun setting... too bad it's on the other side of the plane.

Kelvin!

We actually all 3 gt different seats on the plane. But me & Kel decide to ask whoever gonna be next to me.. to see if he/she would be willing to change seats with him. It was a Aussie guy? Kinda angmoh looking yet look abit mix la. He was pretty cool abt it. But when me & Kelvin settled down, he told me, the guy looked happy when he realised I'm gonna be sitting next to me. Coz when he heard I'm tt seat number, his face brighten up. haha. Duno wad theory he came out with... but he says can see he's happy to be sitting with me & I/we, crushed his hope.

And, whether Kelvin's theory is rite or nt.. it was a compliment. Anybody would feel gd abt such things.

Touching down!! The pretty SG lights.

Been slacking at hm for days. With that bad muscleache & sweating hot weather. I just simply sweat my way thru the day. -.- Only been out at nite.. Was KTV with Gerald, Xiaoying & Andy last nite! Love KTV-ing with them.

The Botak Boy.

Since I havent had Prata since my return & Xy was hungry... so we decide to go for a prata supper! Yummy..... ^^

Duno wad's my plans for the rest of the hols... But I guess I better start working soon. Need Ching-ching ($$).

Last pp.. missing hm

2007-06-17T09:41:00.000+08:00

It's the last paper tmr... Process Engineering Materials. Deeptangshu's. All memorising work, yet I havent memorised anything yet. 27 more hrs to the pp. I'm still worried for Fluids & Principles...

And, I'm missing hm. It's only 5 more days to hm & I cant wait. Emotions are rushing thru me... yes, emotional currently. No, not PMS. My whole family's in Vietnam now, all except me. Thou I hope I can b there, I'm ok with that. Since.. I'm nt in Sg the whole time with them too. I felt sad when talking to Sis. Guess she was surprised that I called too. But I used my laughter to cover up those missings.

Sis was telling me what every1 bought & wat she could buy for me. Told me that Mum bought huge logans for me too. Hah. Mummy will always be Mummy. She has gt a special preference to foreign fruits.
Mum as usual asked me how's the paper. Not making her worried, I made the paper sound more positive. *Prays*
Dad, I heard him over the bckgrd a few times. Gt him to pick up the phone.. just to wish "Happy Father's Day". His respond "Issit today?" Sis was laughing. Me "I think so.. haha. Shld be." That was it.. we hung up.

I'm always & will always be the Family's Lil Girl. As I told Mum in her Mother's Day card, I'm always missing home.

Exams

2007-06-12T12:03:00.000+08:00

Simply a whole week of study break. Nth to blog abt. But I was simply slacking ALOT too! Yes, I do make sure I finish studying them.. but still, that doesnt build up my confidence before the Exam paper.

2 days of Exams over now.. 3 more to go. Both 9am. Next 3 papers, dont have to wake so early anymore. Phew~
Tired.. Today's Fluid Mechanics, sux too. I walk hm looking =(. Some1 asked me for road directions again. Think I gt tt.. "I have a map in my brain" or "I look so kind" kinda face? I led the poor guy the wrong way again! Shit!! I came hm checked the map... he shld actually have walked with me n it'll b far nearer to his destination. But I juz wasnt sure. I feel bad.. always like tt when I lead ppl to wrong direction la!

Came hm, Zhaoying msged me on MSN. She told me she's gonna fail. I mean "fail". I know that bunch of gers wont. But me.. hmmm.... ANWzz... it wasnt a gd paper. But wat she said, made me feel better. At least there might a hope that the paper would be scaled up. Process Analysis yest was much better. Now, after studying hard n smart... Time to PRAY hard.

3 more papers: Chem (hmm..), Process principles (screammss), Materials (memorise... n rem)
~Hungry & Tired~

End of ChemEng sem 1

2007-06-01T16:17:00.000+08:00

Officially the end of Sem1 2007 for ChE! Except for the exams...

Reflection: Been a gd 1. Not the best.. but the best since I started off in Curtin. I know next sem will be even better. Royal Perth Show! I love Fun. Sch work.. scored better than b4. But of coz, Exams will past the Final verdict.

Busy Busy weeks... are all over! Assignments, Projects are pretty much done. Went out for Pirates with the gers last week. =) Too short an outing thou. =(

The show's starting! Just as I took the pic.. Ravie turned. Not cool!

The ChE Asians... Lady in Green(Lady in pink's fren) & 2nd fr the rite (Lady 3rd fr the rite's Sis)

The Girls.

The Boys.

Watch movie only mah... Not much pics to take.

Suddenly, Fierce King came to my mind. My analysis grp proj mate. He's from South Africa like Ravie. But I realised, SA has gt pretty much Whites too, not just Blacks. But Ravie's Indian la... Rem how Fierce King stresses me so much when we did the 1st Analysis proj. In fact now, I'm thinking, IF I'm a White, I'll b attracted to him. wahaha... insane thought. But he looks damn fierce. And, I came to a conclusion that ppl with Large Eyes, DO look fiercer. Thinking back on ppl I know, yes, tt conclusion does makes sense. During the Proj, I did the conclusion with Alvin for the very last project. He went hm last nite & changed it all. WTH! TMD! He is.... *speechless*.

Projects and labs were smooth... due to the Seniors. *big grinz*

Get a gd gd sleep tonite.
It's the beginning of a Horrible Week for the Future of a Sweet Sweet Hols.

Exhausted

2007-05-23T23:07:00.000+08:00

So tired.... Kept dozing off in class today. Since 20mins into lecture this morning at 9am. I dun used to do tt. I gt to do smth to myself... I dun wan to keep dozing off. Somehow, Time passes so quickly & nearly 11 weeks of Uni had gone passed.

Exams coming... I'm been slackin & lack of motivation since the Mid-sem tests were over. I cant afford to do so. Nearly a sem will be over. I still dont regret changin my course. ChemEng may be alot busier, but I still like it better than Chem. I know I would score better too.

Gerald... I've been feeling so much strain in Uni, I dont need another problem for him to add on. I duno if I can considered myself feeling stress or stressing myself.. But I feel so drained. Feel like if more negative things stacks higher onto this current pile, I would explode. I was so tired after Uni today.. for wadever reason, he called. Aft our quarrel last nite. I didnt have much respond to him. Why? Coz I was slping!! I dont even quite rem wad was said. Soon aft the conver, he sent an sms.. smth abt knowin we cant last. Saying that he has made an effort in calling me yet.. my dead respond or smth?? I dont rem.. I dragged my eyes open n hands to move to call him.. gt no respond from it. Nth.

I'm lack of motivation. Nth accomplished yet feeling so tired. STOP IT!

Bad things happen while back hm after a lonnggg day of Uni. Hadi borrow my thumbdrive to copy the BBQ pics into his comp. When I came hm & wan to use it, I realised it was infected with "Torjan Horse". He is an asshole! I alrdy cant stand the way he handle his personal problems. He just need to add on to make me more frustrated with his doings??

I told him abt it. Respond:
Hadi: "Sorry lo. U shld update ur virus scan la."
Eve: "Den wad abt urself??" (What I intended to say is "look who's toking?!")
Hadi: "No leh, my comp is ok. nth wrong"
Eve: "So where tt horse come from?"
Hadi: "Duno leh."

LOOK!! How insincere ans.

Next.. while Cal send me home, she told me Shayne(the landlord) talked to her abt the electricity bills going up too much. Cal explained tt it's Aaron. Coz since.. when Nick was here, the bill was fine. Shayne ignore her, as usual, & exclaimed tt Nick was usually not hm. Thus, the bill was fine. He insist we on our heater day & nite & even showed an article on "Heater drying skin". When I heard it, I can understd Cal's frustrations too. Coz China Old Man, NEVER listens. I know Aaron leaves the fan running continously when he was out of the hse too! Guess this shld explains smth?

If I cant settle my sch work now, I dont need xtra problems. Pls. I cant even say Give Me a Break. Coz in the 1st place, Have I even done anything much?? Uni can only be my only problem now... aft tt, den I could settle any others.

PS: my ceiling.. has gt mouse?? Heard them scrambling thru for a few weeks now. Saw tt lil 1 in the kitchen juz now. But cant b found. It's... pretty cute thou. =)

Ferlyn come again!

2007-05-21T20:39:00.000+08:00

Dessert: Baskin Robbins!! Yums....

May the TamJiak Ladies unite. =D

Gerald's giving me hot, cold treatment. Duno how long this is goin to last.. So tired of it. Busy at sch... all I wan at the end of the day, is to rest & b happy. Not extra problems. Rships r troublesome.. super troublesome. 4 weeks+ more to home. Am I still looking forward to it.. for the same reasons?

I hope I will do fine enough for Exams!! Stop being lazy....

Ivan leaving

2007-05-19T22:06:00.000+08:00

He failed his course or smth.. cant get back being in the Airforce anymore. It's a pity.. really. I feel sad for him. But he seems ok.. going back to Sg to continue studying. It's gd... but sigh.

Week 9 of Uni just passed. 3 more weeks of Uni before study break. Feeling a lil like I cant breathe alrdy. Been lazy to go for lects too. Too lil time left....

Yawning thru the week.. Skipped class on Thurs afternoon. Went with Cal to see a potential. No units available.. equals we are still stayin in this hse. I do like it thou.. Cal's just bored.

Skipped a Chem lect on Fri again! Skipped it 2 weeks back too. Wanted to go get Lyn's present. Havin lunch at Fuji 1st... it sounded so tempting. Thus, I went. 2hrs wait for the next lect isnt very enjoying too.

Gt her vouchers... and it was shopping & more shopping! Cardi from Supre. Cheap red shoes fr some asian shop? At least.. they have my size.

Really comfy shoe... soft soft cushions.

Sat is a busy busy day... But a GOOD busy day.

~BBQ organised by Faiz Hadi(curly Hair) @ Burswood Park~

Just the few of us... but having a gathering is always good. I realised, Shar will vomit at the smell & taste of any red meat. 1st time I knew some1 like that. His is really serious...

Guys BbQ-ing. Gers sitting by the benches starving.

Nice nice Rokia!

Fatty Fatty Food! Sinned.

Grp Photo!

Self Shots!

~Lyn's Bday Celebration~

Actual day is on 14th May. Went hm straight after the BBQ to prepare for the dinner & clubbing!

The ladies in the House!

Theme of the Nite... the Glowing Bangles.

Glorious Food.

The SIGN if Irritating Ming!

Catch him peeping behind.

Went to the DEEN. Very Aussie club.. but some ppl said it's gd. Lyn wanted to give it a try rather than the usual Metros. Huge crowd. But bad music. We left... Metros it is.

Lightings of DEEN.

Sandiiiii

Spoiler...

Dun wanna take the usual Tequilla & Barcadi 151. Bartender said "Speciality". It's Coat Hanger. Taste like cough syrup.

The nite probably didnt went on as well as it should. Some broken-hearted, some F**kers, some jealousy, some just plain bored. Some ppl aint as good as they appear. I understd ur pain, Clem.

I'm probably not such a gd ger too.

Between me & Gerald... it's kinda dying down. Even if we are facing each other by the comp.. the distant is still there. Died down on clubbing for awhile. But I still enjoy it & wanna go for more!

CHEERS! Katie peeping behind...

It would be just clearing projects for the next few weeks... n Fluid mech lab! Dun like lab reports.... Mafan! Cant wait to get back to Sg. Singapura.. OH Singapura. Sunny island... just for U & Me!

Busy Busy

2007-05-06T09:09:00.000+08:00

Just realised I havent blogged in 2 weeks... been so busy. Been lazy too. Nobody reads this blog anw. It's a personal way of keepin track of my life. Tt's if.. 1day I will be free enough to scroll all the way back since I started.

Last weekend was only hm n bored. So pekchek. Cal wanted to finish up her assignment thingy. So only went to jog in the evening & tt's all. It feels gd to b jogging in Mill Point. Had Process Principles test on wed.. juz past. I feel borderline aft the paper.. the grades I'm gonna get. Sad la! Hai.. sickening to b reminded of it. Thurs was busy rushing with Analysis assignment. Whic I contributed the least... I couldnt solve the problem while the other grp members does it.
ArggHHh... I'm so stupid! Felt so stupid the whole week.

Dreamt of some1 when I woke up on Tues. Suddenly feeling nostalgic. It's weird...

So this weekend... I had to get out! Called Lynette to ask she wanted to go out with me on Fri nite. She wasnt too free.. so we went out on Sat instead. Aaron caught me on the way out & wanted to leave with me since he's going to the City too. He made us miss the bus! Sat under the sorching sun for next 30mins waiting for the next bus to come. -.-

Bought a black eyeshadow & green eyeliner. So addicted to their range of colourful makeups!

Good weather... but I prefer no clouds at all. =)

Lyn wanted to buy tt cap... den realised it's spoilt in some ways.

Went over to Lyn's place after shopping. Went hm n gt my lappie n some notes 1st. Didnt study anything for the whole remaining day. Was busy playing with the new photoshop Cal's downloaded. Hehe... N made plentiful of pics to cover up my flaws.

The Narcissism Section~

The beauty of Art

Made some with old pics of Baby too.... He thinks I'm nt putting anything of us anymore on anywhere. I think we are drifting... He n I both been busy. Time passes faster, yes. But feelings.. doesnt it becomes plainer n plainer too?

The old newspaper.

The classic Painting.

Sis Bday today! I duno wad to get for her... Went City with Lyn yest & found nth suitable. Nth I know that she'll wan. Gt Mum a Mother's Day card. Will send on Tues. Mayb searching for Sis's present too?

Chem test on Tues. Pls be good....

Juz a Uni week

2007-04-27T21:20:00.000+08:00

Last sat, wanted to go Fuji for lunch. But it was closed! Went down to Carousel with Cal in the morning b4 groceries. Went ard searchin for lunch after... I wanted Jap food so badly tt day. Thus, Cal someHow suggested to go down Belmont. Yeah... SUPRE's there! So... went down have a look. See See... end up become Shop Shop. We wanted to juz get out for the early half of the day.... spent like 2hrs in Supre itself! It was 5.30pm, by the time we left. Coz they were closing. Blah... Bought 2 dresses. Yes, Mum's gonna scold me for tt. 2 flora dress somemore.

Went Mill Point to run after. Met some Jellyfish there. Dead on the shore. Hehe. Like gel caps on the ground. Poked at them.. n pierced thru. Oops. So yea... Falling in love with Mill point.
Dipesh & Mehul's late bday celebration tt nite. Lynette's kinda made me go for it since all the other girls are going... we r the 4 Musketeers.

Did rush studying for Fluid Mech the next day. Think the paper went fine.. hopefully. Got back Materials test today! Scored abt the marks I wanna get. Yeah. Am happy.. But shant b too proud. =)

Last Thurs was Kelvin's Bday, but didnt get to celebrate it coz every1 had to study for a test, materials, on Fri. Went out with Faiz Hadi & Peggy during the afternoon after the 1hr tut on Tues. It was a really gloomy day. Havin my PMS? Felt down... & felt like goin hm tt afternoon. The whole day juz rained n rained. Was wet & cold. Dun like tt feeling. Went HabourTown for the 1st time. Cheap stuff there, yea. But nth much I felt like buying. Feel down, cold & broke. It's the weather...

Peg wanted to buy an eye concealer... so we went to Myers. Searched for the brand, Laura Mercier. Tried it with her.. Felt tt it was pretty gd. And yea, bought it too! So love it now. =)

Laura Mercier ~ Secret Concealer

Nite was dinner at Sizzle, Kelvin's choice. All who went gt him a$100 CityBeach voucher & a BlackForest Cake. Dinner was nt too long.. but great.

2 guys not in the pic..

The 4 closest girls in ChE yr2 2007.

Wed was Anzac Day... some aussie day to conmamorate their soldiers during some Vietnam war? Smth historical. Anw, supposed to study. End up spent most time slping... The week probably passed pretty quick. Wanted to get out today... was bored. But no money & duno wad's Cal's plans. End up, we played badminton with Lyn, Reg, their guys & Hakim. Caused blister on my index finger. Had dinner at Latansa aft & now at Lyn's place while Reg & Cal went to Uni to get some assignment done. It's 11.40pm currently.. yes, this late.

Glorious food... Indo.

The 5 ladies.... Love them.

Irritating Ming...

Gonna study for Process Principles Mid sem soon. Hardest unit for me this sem...

Exam timetable's out too. Wanna get back soon. Misses every1 back home. Mum not wanting me to be back.. wonder how I shld tell her, or not?

~Wanna give U hugs & kisses so badly~

R our frens circling ard?

2007-04-21T00:02:00.000+08:00

Been a fast going week. Had Materials Engineering test this morning... hoping for the best of coz.

So tired... been hm & studying everyday of the week. Test on Mon too.. Fluid Mechanics. Afraid I wont score well, afraid I dun understd, afraid that I cant study finish, blah. Gonna b so hardworkin tmr & Sun again.

Thru Gerald, I realised his gd buddy in camp, has a gf from PL too. But 1 yr younger den me. Singapore's really small isnt it? How every friend actually circle ard some1 who u actually know too.

So, I decide to draw a "mind-map" thingy. It's all the cross linking of frens. There's more in fact. But this is the biggest chain I can rem. I think, this is really cool thou. All the end of the branch, is actually some1 I know as a fren. Whether schmate, some1 of the past, gd/close frens. HMmmm... I'm too bored I guess.

I like everyday so much better now. Only worries is Uni work. I'm feeling slacky & lazy.
Tmr morning gonna be out for a short shopping trip with Cal & to buy groceries. Hoping for a gd lunch tmr too. =) So used to her being ard alrdy... when she's back to Sg for gd, I can foresee that I would be so bored. Less gossip & shopping khaki.

Gerald pissed me off again juz now. Guys can just never keep to wat they promise eh? Still dare attitude somemore! Mayb coz I was screamin ard... hehe. But argghh.. Sick of it!

It's the worm season again! Autumn... weather turning cold & all those blind black worms whic coils up upon touched, are climbin into my, most spent time in Perth, room! They're probably Millipedes... but YUCKS! Just STOP coming in! Or ur hm will belong to the Toilet bowl instead of the Soil! GET LOST!

I... HATE... Worms.

Lovely weekend

2007-04-15T14:34:00.000+08:00

Aft lunch, I'm happy & satisfied. Felt like blogging too. It's raining so heavily out there now. Havent rained in a while now... Thunderstorm, the forecast says.

Went out last nite & I'm happy, thou it was short.

Couldnt decide where to bring the guys thou. Walked to Bell tower.. thinking there'll b somewhere nice to chill. Nope. Walked back to the car & went to Albany Highway for 'Makan Makan' instead.

Bell Tower. It looks pretty at nite.

Let the picture tells it all.

They are really fun grp of guys to hang out with. Planning for picnics & home-cooked Nasi Lemak. haha. May not meet them after this weekend thou. Tests & projects are piling up. I gt to be really hardworking now.

Narcissim while waiting for the Guys. (They lost their way, tryin to find us)

Some complains.. Aaron, the hsemate, isnt doing much for the meals. We're always cooking & washing up for him. Treat us as his Maid ar! We're planning a way to make Aaron do the cookin & washing at least twice a week now. So it'll be fair.

~U make me look forward to weekends.~
*Smiley eyes*

2nd week of Easter break

2007-04-13T18:51:00.000+08:00

Not a very happening week. Not too boring too... But it indeed passed quite fast. No pictures either...

Wanted to take pics with Aaron, the hsemate. But still havent! Always didnt think my cam was necessary... but end up, always think I shld have brought it out. Come to think abt it... other than being hm & studying, when me & Cal's out, it's usually with him.

Tues nite was off for movie in Carousel with Cal & Aaron. 300! Nice movie! Love it... Gt *ahem* scenes too. Wonder wat's the rating in Sg & are they censored?? Pretty cruel past. Even for the Spartans. How they select the best Spartans...

I love this photo... But it's a sad 1.

Home to study on Wed... Was out on Thurs evening for some shoppin in Carousel. Bought a Jacket, longsleeve & Bronze shoe whic Sis wanted. Did some groceries in Coles & was off for dinner in Albany Highway. Forgt the name... but it's some Indonesian Restuarant. Not bad.. thou portion's lesser than wat other Aus restuarants can offer, at that price. Was satisfying enough. Aaron went with us to Carousel & onwards too. Coz he wanted to get smth. But poor him, had to be alone while waiting for us to finish with out shopping.

Off for Fluid Mech proj meeting today. But was off for lunch with Aaron & Cal at Fuji before that. YUMMY food... it's pretty gd. Worth the price.. Set meal for A$8.80. Miso soup, a starter (can b cold noodles, salad, etc), green tea (prob free), a bowl of rice & wadever meat U call for. Had Teriyaki Fish... it was slight salty but great!
Aft the proj.. came hm & Cal said she felt like going Supre. I wasnt in the mood to study.. so yea. Heh. Bought 2 tops whic are on sales. Wanted to get a dress too... But, nth much nice or suits me.

Thus, spend spend spend. Spent so much these hols alrdy! Since the shopping with Ferlyn...

Anw, the Fuji restuarant, the boss' lil boy helps out too. It's pretty cute. I wont see Sg kids doing that. But Jap kids will help out in their parents shop... on TV too. Gonna do more studying soon... waiting to get out of hse tmr. Hopefully... hee.

These eggs.. bought weeks back. But forgt to load the pics here. Haha.. Love them. Every single 1 of them has gt a smiley face. Interesting yea?

Bought these coffee shots yest & today. They're really gd! Choc on the outside & real roasted coffee beans on the inside. Slight bitter but gd.

Look at my drawer now... full of junkies! No wonder I am fatter & fatter.. Get it?!

Fun weekend

2007-04-08T15:18:00.002+08:00

This rship is prob complicating. Regarding last post... No more to say. Everything seems ok again. It wasnt just a passing phase. It really did nearly determine smth. But tt may too... make me move on to another phase of how I wan this rship to be.

Probably.. he just needed some time of his own.

Cut long story short. Let the FUN begin!!

5th April, Ferlyn came! Her 1st flight to Perth. She passed me the shoes I ask Xy to buy for me. It's nt super fantastic looking. But I needed to get a new pair before the old 1 spoils.. I love tt furball!

Tt white pair...

Tt's lily, me n Ferlyn. The SQ girls & our Shopping Feast.

Gelato. Not bad ice-cream. Gd service.

All the Singaporean Girls.

The girl in white, Nicole. She's been staying in Perth for quite awhile alrdy. Cool girl. Offered us all the ice-cream we could eat. Since she's gonna throw them away at the end of the day too. Heh. The rockmelon 1, was nice n refreshing.

The shopping with the 2 gers was great too! They indeed, bought lots of clothes! Directed them the way to get back to the hotel & off I went to catch the 1hr frequency bus.
Went for groceries that nite.. It's Gd Friday the next day. Easter eggs & bunnies were clearing from the shelves. By Tues when the shops are open again, none will be left. Not even as offered goods.. damn!

The rows & rows of Easter chocs.

Aft a day of shopping... & it's always great!

Actually, what's the real meaning of Easter.. Gd fri n all? I'm really stll not sure. Since studying in Perth, I only know that whenever I'm back fr the hols in Feb, all the Easter chocs will be up on shelves nearly anywhere possible now.

Gd Friday dinner at Reg & Lyn's place.
Sushi dinner. Fruit salad & lots of alcohol!

Steps to make a perfect sushi.

1. Get ur ingredients ready.

2. Get the Sushi mat, place the seaweed on it & spread the rice thin & evenly.

3. Place desired ingredients.

4. Rem to squeeze in the Mayo. Or sushi will be real dry.

5. Roll the mat, starting nearest to u. Press all the ingredients inwards (towards urself).

6. Lift up mat alil & roll remaining seaweed & rice outwards (away fr u). Make sure the ends have some rice too. Helps sticks the whole sushi together.

7. The rolled product.

8. Cut them into Sushi size pieces. Note: the 1st piece will always be distorted & only eaten by its 'maker'.

9. Take a look at ur sushi bits & their ingredients. Then, dump them into ur mouth.

The mess Ming created..

After dinner... games & drunkards.

Indian Poker

The 'Jiao Bei Jiu'

Cheers & Cheers & more Cheers.

Yesh.. she gt pretty drunk.

The nite ended with lots of mess & clean ups. Poor Lyn & Reg. I slept with a huge headache too. Woke up at 10+ in the morning & went hm to get ready for the meet-up with Ian. A day at Fremantle. Lunch & Arts Festival... but we didnt really get to see anything much.

Went hm tt morning.. saw a msg on msn from Xiaoying. 3rd Uncle passed away. Pretty shocking, yes. Called Mum. She was very upset. I know 3rd Uncle's her favorite brother. Funeral's going on at this moment in Sg now. I duno y he passed away.. reason, unsure. Mayb heart attack or smth. But hrs b4 he passed away, he actually went to the hospital himself. Sigh... as yrs passes, the family members whom I've known since my birth.. will b gone slowly isnt it? It can be decades later. But time do fly...

Freo!

On the way to pick Ian from the City.

Taking a pic in the middle of the train track.

Car for Sale! $4500 & it's urs. For real!!

But I rather have this car! White with the posh red leather seats.

Life size toy car. Wind it to move.

Nice red car.. look how vintage the inside looks.

These lil colourful trucks are darn cute!

The outing with Ian. Lunch & dinner at Cicerallos. Played Laser Quest & the walk ard Freo.

The yummy seafood!

1st time out at nite in Freo. It's actually pretty romantic. Nice ambience. The 1st pic with blue light..

Ian's batch of pilots. Some eye-candies there. Hmmm....

Stayed hm all Sun today. Spent the whole afternoon blogging. -_- Why did I take so long?? Wonders... Cal & me bought a choc egg for Easter. Only $1.50. Broke it after lunch juz now.. hehe.

Take the egg. Strip it of its gold wrapper & Break it! Consume in Delight....

Happy Easter!!

Suffocated

2007-04-04T16:46:00.000+08:00

This is the 100th post in my blog since I started in Dec 2005.

I've been stuck at home for days.. I feel so suffocated mentally & physically. I didnt realised the dist between me & Gerald till now. Waiting for him to call... to call me tonite. And, tell me what's the decision. Wat's happening to us & what will happen to us. This is so difficult. It's like break up.. but worst. Coz it gives me tt bit of hope... tt mayb things wont turn bad after all.

I duno how much I wan this rship. It's getting so hard.. so so hard. It's like.. how much things we've been thru tgt over the last yr. Fr knowing him, to the bad memories of the past which came haunting back, to the departure of me to Perth, to him coming to look for me, to the dist we had last yr, to issues abt my parents..... to the amt of tears we lost so much to get tgt. Now more tears comes fr me for the fear of losing him.

3 More yrs here.. I know it's hard. Not juz for him, for me too. I know I cant expect him to wait. I'm confused. I feel like endin it all.. Cry till my hearts out.. And all will be over. But do I even wan to get to tt stage??

So what if i cry now.. so wad if i get so upset tt I refuse to do anything. He's there. I'm here. A Fact tt cant b changed... No matter how lonely he is there, I cant b there beside him. No matter how emotional I get without him, He cant b here to cuddle & comfort me.

Baby... U have stopped coming to my blog, I know. I wont ask u to. Since the blog started, almost every post contains smth abt U. Even the "nearly" break up posts were up since long ago. What if tonite, we decide to leave each other's life? I wanna tell U how glad I was during the time we were tgt. I dunwan to end this rship badly. I wan a calm & cool breakup. I wan to see u again.

You make my life perfect... Yes, U do.

Net's fine

2007-03-31T13:02:00.000+08:00

Yeah!! Net's finally done now. Seems faster... It is faster!

Rite... pics for the last 5 weeks! Since after CNY... Gerald was getting ready to go to the Police Academy.

Last pic of his Long Hair

Cut them off the day b4 he entered.

Went DimDum lunch with some of the ChemEng girls tt Tues when Gerald entered. Short lunch... n we left alrdy.

It was dinner with Reg & Lyn tt following weekend. Meet ups with them is always great. In Analaskshimi, an indian vegetarian restaurant by the bell tower. A charity kinda dinner.. pay wadever amt we want on leaving.

Bell Tower!

Indian Buffet.

Cal didnt wan to take much pics on tt day.

Me & Lynette

Posing...

That same weekend, or was it the weekend b4? Went Rising Sun Restuarant for DimSum with the hsemate, Aaron. Went for movie with him once too. Some psycho thriller movie.. gave me some bad after-effects for few nites after. Me, Cal & Air-ron. Sharing groceries now as well... closer to him than to Nick. Wonder y.. Or maybe, I know y. Hah. *Air's nicer to talk to*

Last weekend, Baby's out from camp! His botak-head... looks so cute. Makes me feel like touching it. Not seeing him on webcam, gives me the urge to run over to hug & kiss him. But Obviously... not possible. I Miss Him & Xb so much.

Days back.. the landlady was making some good food for the girl.. party or smth? Whicever... she gave us some sushi! It made me really happy... I love sushi so much! Miss the suki sushi in Sg. The 12-6pm buffet.. in Cine. The smell good! Taste fine... but good enough. The landlady's really nice. (Nt just due to the sushi )

MamBo Nite last nite... Singapore Connection in Perth organised it.

All the lovely memories.. all the lovely girls. Lots of Fun with them. Love it!

This marks... the beginning of the Easter Break! Yippy!

Uni Life

2007-03-27T13:23:00.000+08:00

Been 5 weeks in Uni alrdy. Everything's been good.. thus far. Girls are great, studies are ok. Bad thing is that I couldnt blog at home.. in Uni now. Net's still bad.. since early March. Wont be well till April.. hopefully by the 1st.

Chem lab practical test yesterday evening. Sky was gloomy after lab.. ended slightly late. Autumn's coming or smth.. I dun really like it when it goes so dark after class. Feels sad... it's like missing home. I was lucky enough to get the same Unknown Solid and Solution as Clement, when he did it 2yrs back. Same as Ravie, new South-African Indian fren, too. Really cold today.. since I came back to Perth. I think I still like it warmer... appreciating Sg's weather much more now.

Next week's the start of Easter break. Have plans with the girls... shopping & studying. Everything's cool. Ferlyn will be flying over here on next Fri too. So we're gonna catch up awhile. She's bringing my shoes over as well. Xiaoying bought them for me.. coz my shoe here is spoiling. Shld have bought them myself when I was in Sg. Would not have enough shoes for winter if the white shoe spoils. It's 1 of my favourite.

Closer to the new Msian hsemate, Aaron now too.. for Me & Cal. Been out, dim sum & movies. We're sharing the same groceries now. Preparing & having dinner with 1 more person, feels more crowded. It's like... when Gerald's here last summer/winter.

Day light saving was over on Sun, 25th, 3am. Heard from Cal.. it's going to be back in Oct. The fluid mech lecturer was saying that next yr, Day Light Saving gonna be 2hrs ahead, instead of the 1hr now. Damn...

Still encountering problems when applying for job. It's not easy being an international student. So much restrictions. The visa, the work permit, the application for Coles... all must be of certain requirements. Just finished an Online Test Assessment for Coles. Coz they rejected me the 1st time saying that my Visa's less than 12mths, thus they cant employ me. I emailed them abt me having to stay here more than 12 mths, n waiting for my extension of Visa & hoping to work during the Easter break (it's 2 weeks). They replied with.. saying that I would need to be assessed with that online test. Hopefully all will go well after this. I'm still waiting for my extension of Visa to come.

It was meeting & outing with peeps here in Perth. I wonder... if my bad luck came fr the mirror I broke last yr. Broke Nick's mirror last yr.. crossing fingers that nth will happen. But I dun think 2006 was very smooth after all. Think I believe in the "bad luck" by the broken mirror.

No pics for now... next post in April with all the old picts here.

*I'm getting too lazy... need to be more hardworking in Revision!*

15th Day of CNY

2007-03-04T20:19:00.000+08:00

Today's the 15th day of CNY. Nothing special today... But if I'm in Sg now, Mum shld have prepared some special dishes.

Cal didnt feel like eating.. I had dinner alone. Porridge.. the thing I love to cook most here. Hehe.. I dun feel bored of it.. it's the easiest to cook & wash up. Since we didnt do anything special, we decide to get outside the backyard to play with some bubbles! The blowy liquid kinda... but this 1 will burst when touched. Benny bought it for her durin V day I guess...

See the moon behind? It's really big n round down here now...

I still... miss home.

1 week already

2007-03-02T21:04:00.000+08:00

Been a week since I came back to Perth. Everything's going in place now. It's pretty much full moon tonite. Went out to throw rubbish when sun's nearly all down. Took a peep at the big, round moon from behind the tall tree outside the hse.

Passed Sonam the book "Introduction to Spectroscopy" whic I'll be selling to Veron. Coz Veron decides not to come to Uni today when I brought the book out alrdy! Been raining the whole day.. Went most of my books & notes. Yucks. Saw Sonam today... he had a new haircut. Nicer than the long hair I guess.. heh. Met Chifai along the way too. Think I kinda miss them now. No matter how it was the last yr... we've been friends for a year alrdy.

Updates for the week...

This is "L**J****". haha.. Crude I noe. It's the hse lil ger's new pet. Been here since we came back to Perth. Cal named it tt.. Coz it's a blue Lobstie.

Was not in Uni for Tues. No tuts or lab for the 1st week. So hm for the whole day.. felt pretty good thou. Noticed those morning glory out on the fence in the backyard. There's bougenvilla too. It's really pretty. Now I do see how morning glories come abt. They really do open only when the sun's out & closes during sunsets.
I'm really fond of flowers... luckily I chose this room thou. Love the sky, the moon, the flowers out there. Look at bottom left.. the blue pot. It's my white roses! Beside is the red 1... cant see them properly thou. Sun's too bright!

New Curtin student ID card. The photo's... really ugly! Guild have to pay for this year. Used to pay that $110 for Uni amenities last yr. But it's not necessary to pay that anymore. So is guild. But guild charges this yr. I joined... Cal did too. So yea.. get discounts in Uni & out!

Timetable's pretty much fixed. Oh.. Now I rem. Probably not fixed for the Tuts thou. I only gt total enrolment today... so no 'estudent' account for me to plan the timetable.

Groceries shopping on Thurs nite again... Saw this 'happie hippo' thingy chocs. Quite nice thou.. Heh. It's kinder's! Lil hippo lookin things for only 20cents each! Thus... me & Cal each bought a carton like tt home. Hehe. The gummy snak-heads for only 30cents & mint pattie for 20cents too. Lots of yummy snacks for just a few $$.

I'm on serious budget for this yr.. mayb not serious. But yea, budget for the next few yrs here. Only gt my letter of offer & acceptance today. Before I could pay for my Uni fees. Settled everything between classes today. Lucky for the many hrs of break. Gd & bad...

Saw Chua LeeKim at Uni today. She called me! Surprise, surprise. I'm meeting more & more sec sch frens in Uni alrdy. Knowing more ppl, having more frequent "hi-s" when u walk ard the Uni. It feels gd.. really. It's nv as foreign anymore.

I felt independent today. I used to leave everything for Dad to help me settle. But now tt I am alone, I had to deal wadever myself. The most I could get was having frens to do some help by sending me to the bank, etc. I dun feel so lost or empty alrdy. Suddenly, just dun feel as much. Mayb, coz I was busy. Chem eng timetable is more pack than Chem's. More quizzes & tests too. But thus far, I do like it.

1st day in ChemEng

2007-02-26T19:44:00.000+08:00

1st day of Uni is over..

Not a good start this morning thou. Due to day-light-saving, I set my Hp alarm to the timing of Sg. Whic is 1hr later. I woke up myself 20mins before 1st class starts. Rushed to bathe! Was off from home 20mins later & abt 10mins late.

It was still pretty ok.. cause nth much impt was gone thru yet. Thunderstorm today... walked to Uni with the dark clouds above my head & Lightning spread across my eyes. For a moment, I was afraid of being striked at.

Found frens pretty easily... luckily with the help of early tutorial this morning. Great knowing new ppl... Sweet girls. Mostly Msians. Doesnt matter the country.. as long as they contribute to a better time in Uni.

Lectures covered so far... Understandable & pretty much similar to wad taught in TP. Hopefully wont be too tough till the end of Sem. Gotta do much much better now.. Dun disappoint my Family again.

Will miss Sonam, Veron, Jeanpaul & the other Chem peeps thou. They've been real nice...

Still feel slightly Lost at times.. Empty.. Missing home.

My Perth room

2007-02-25T22:39:00.000+08:00

My room been changing abit since the beginning.. Tis is how it is now!

Added the xtra drawer thingy there pulled out from the wardrobe. Needed another side table kinda to put things on it. My original table for the laptop & study. So I can put the "Phagu" 8 Glasses dispenser given to me by Xiaoying. Love it! Tt strawberry shortcake box beside it too.. for some make-up & CDs.

New arrangement looks abit messy.. But it's actually all well-placed. Printed those photos when I was in Sg... just to add on faces I would miss while here in Perth.

The pillows here... are still pretty comfortable.

Love this frame to bits! Was a from a gift exchange during Xmas Eve with the club gang. Come to real good use for now..

*Sweet*

Time for bed now.... Uni tmr. A New Beginning!
