Photos........

Yep finally posted photos... go HERE to view the photos...and yes they DO have my face in them this time.. haha!

been really busy last 2 weeks wif all the mid sem tests... but glad they're all over! physics prac is really really boring man.. absolutely boring.. i hate writing all the stupid reports... luckily last wk was just abstract writing so it was short... hrm gonna have a new physics demonstrator for the next demi-semester... haiz one of the only things to look forward to for physics prac is that my demonstrator is eye candy... haha hope the new one is cute too if not physics prac will be more of a torture... nothing much to say bout chem prac.. except that liquid nitrogen is damn cool... for bio we haveta create our own slides by slicing specimens wedged in a carrot block with a razor blade... haha it sound silly but it's harder then it looks... cos u haveta get the thing really really thin... gonna do a rat dissection next week! finally get to do some 'real' prac... haha!

hmmm last friday went to this club called castle... there was this ms chinese university pagent going on... the girls arent particularly pretty but at least they looked better in person then on the promo pics... the club... is the same as s'pore la.. loud music and alot of alcohol... downstairs was r n b... upstairs was canto pop n techno (SHUDDER)... of course i stayed downstairs... haha.. oh the funny thing is.. alcohol bought from the liqour stalls here is DAMN cheap.. not only beer but hard liqour too.. but at the clubs is so damn expensive... some drinks are even more ex then in s'pore... haha so if u want to get drunk just go grab a bottle from the liquor stall...

yay happy that i've got a long weekend... tml's a public hol over here in Australia... Anzac day... some war memorial day la..

oh u know what? i din expect melb uni to keep in contact wif my jc... as in i got this deans honours award for my entry score into the uni... as in for my a lvls la... strange huh they start giving out awards even b4 u do any exams in the uni... haha... so dumb they give just based on entry score... that's practically no basis at all!! but yeah how i know they contact SA? cos my CT (yeah it's mrs leow...haha) send me a mail to congratulate me on behalf of the school.. weird man...


yeah i know everyone's busy with exams now... just wanna wish u all GOOD LUCK for your exams! dont worry u can do it! RELAX n dun be so stressed pls... you're just a few days away from your long long holidays! :)

Easter Hols

Dammit. Last day of the Easter break. Haiz. back to school tomorrow....... well so what have been doing this past easter week?

Friday: went to visit a bar on friday night... actually me n my friends wanted to visit this club but the queue was amazingly long so we din... the long island tea at the pub taste different then in singapore (maybe it's an aussie taste?).. had a very distinct honey flavour in it... when we left the bar it was ard 2am and the queue for the club was still crazy even at that hour....

Saturday: Bummed around, watched anime, went shopping for easter feast...

Sunday: Easter party at my apartment... just a few neighbours n friends... i cooked for everyone!! haha! had fun time preparing all the food... not bad i actually cooked for 7 pple... after that we watched 2 dvds.. ate potato chips n a big easter egg! haha fun... watched this french show(brotherhood of the wolves - weird show but kinda interesting) n The Gift (i realised i watched it b4 but had forgotten the whole story.... oh btw swi i'm sure u know that keanu reeves acts in this show...haha!)... watched till like 5am then talked for a while... the thing is ... i was meeting my friends at 10am ... and i got to sleep at ard... 7? yeah so i slept for like 2 hrs bah...

Monday: yes because i only slept for 2 hrs... i was late for meeting my friends... haha.. we went to the beach... st kilda... nice place... but dammit when we got there it was freakin cold.. haha.. and when we left it was hot n nice n sunny... so suay... haha... but they have really nice looking cake shops there.. all the cakes displayed so nicely at the window... so preettyyy... haha... had a nice little picnic there...

tuesday: werribee safari day... took a train wif neighbours to werribee ... then took a bus to the safari.. haha passed alot of vegetable farms along the way... lots n lots lettuce plots.. nice little rows of green ..hee.. the place is not bad.. we took a ride on this bus n it brought us around the safari.... passed by lots of animals... but too bad no lions on the prowl.. the lions only can see them in an enclosure.... well anyway the only animals to be seperated from the safari n the bus were the hippos.. cos they're so territorial n dangerous.. got an electric fence seperating them from the water hole n the bus... got a great shot of a male hippo bearing it's teeth n showing aggression towards the bus.. i like the rhinos too.. there's a baby rhino that's only 4 months old there.. cute.. haha.. n there were meerkats in an enclosure too.. i love them! kawaii!!

well but for me i think the most adventurous part of the safari was.... going home.. haha! the bus (it's a public bus) was suppose to be at the bus stop at 5pm... we n a few other grps of pple were waiting at the bus stop even b4 5.. and we waited there for an hour and the bus never showed up... yeah so we realised that the bus wasnt coming... maybe the driver forgot abt daylight saving???? anyway yeah and the whole place was closed cos the place closed at 5... so there we were making a whole joke out of it saying it would be so cool to stay overnight ... haha... but well so me n my frens decided to walk back to the train station ourselves... we sort of remembered the route back.. haha.. then the rest of the stranded group met up with this staff from the safari n they called a private bus to take the pple back... $60 for the whole bus... but me n my frens din want to pay (ok so it wasnt that much money after u divide among everyone) and we were raring for an adventure.. haha.. so we decided to continue n walk... so after getting some directions (turn left, then left again, then straight all the way)... we walked off.. it was getting to be dark soon so we had to hurry to the main road b4 the sky turned dark ( there's no street lights cos it's a rural road)....

ok the most adrenaline rushing part of our walk back? when we were almost reaching the main road.. the sun was setting n the sky was really pretty so we were just about to take out our cams when this huge (i really mean huge) roitweller dashed out n started barking and growling at us... it was in the driveway of it's house but the gate was wide open... i tell u we were all shocked... plus we could hear another dog in the distance... so we all slowly walked away avoiding eye contact n the dog let us pass... well i guess it was just doing it's job protecting it's territory.. but the thing is we were lucky cos we just crossed the road (we needed to make a left turn remember?) and the dog was on the right.. if we had walked a few metres more... we would have been right smack in the middle of the dog's territory.. well after that the walk was nice but uneventful... total time taken? 1 hr and 15 mins to walk there.

when i got back.. watched movie wif my friends.. miss congeniality 2.. funny stuff...

Wednesday: cooking n "study" day.... hehe went to a prevet fren's house to study wif a grp of coursemates... i like her apartment.. very nice.... well the thing is besides claudine(her house)... everyone else is not a study person.. we all were soooo slack n could only study wif her ard.. haha! and at one pt of time she had to leave the house to meet her sister.... n when she got back she found me n my fren eating potato chips n watching dvds.. haha! well at least i did more studying in her house then i had done the whole wk... hehe n we cooked ba kut teh for lunch... good stuff.. n had pasta for dinner.....

thursday n friday: went to healesville wif frens to visit this girl we met in mountaineering club... healesville is sort of a rural area and so i got to experience what it's like to live in a real aussie house... she had a vege garden and lot's of the stuff were from her gardern... and there were these HUGE zuchinnis.... she grew tomatoes n beans n pumpkin n lemons too... plus she kept chickens for eggs too.. oh and there was this fig tree n we just plucked the figs and ate them.. very sweet.... for dinner we had potatoes n salad n ham.. and had pancakes wif ice cream for breakfast... oh yeah and they make their own honey too.. they keep bees n harvest the honey themselves... sweet... went for a little nature walk after breakfast.. then it was back to melbourne....
