I'm seriously the opposite of most people I know when it comes to sleeping time. So far, only my 2 best girlfriends share the same symptoms when we have a late night. In short, 1 late night pretty much screws up the rest of the week T_T It really gets to me especially when I don't have anything to do, excluding mundane things like work and studies of course ^^
Things have been great so far =)
Managed to shop, got my Max Bren's treat, met up with friends for many meals, went for Moomba...etc. Life has been treating me well!
With us working, we hardly talk now eh lulu? I miss you too! Keep your fingers crossed that I can be home real soon! *hugs* Don't work too hard ya XD

If I was looking a little worn out the day before I flew to Gold Coast, the after-GC me could've given Droopy a run for his money for being sleepy-eyed.
However, that was a small price to pay for having three fun filled days although slightly sun burned on my cheeks and nose and very, very brown >.< PROOF that GC is sunshine city XD
The smell of rain in the air was so refreshing for us poor, deprived Melbournians. The humidity level is much higher, which alongside with the sun, gave a homey feeling =)
I have never ever had so much chips in such a short time frame in my life. Blame it on the lack of proper food in SeaWorld. Besides that, it was big dinners for four nights in a row! From Lazy Moe's at EdgeWater, to Thai food at GC, to a more simple and lighter dinner (in comparison!) at some chinese restaurant near Surfers, back to Plume with a most extravagant meal!
Being on the Pirate Ship at SeaWorld only reminds me of my "SAY-NO-TO-THEMEPARKS!" slogan. And thats only coz I got sucked into sitting with my cousin brother at the ends of the ship.
When my cousin's wife saw what the Dugongs were eating, she exclaimed "haiyaa! no wonder they're protected animals! SO BIG and they only eat grass the poor things!" T__________T"
Paiseh. Cousin's father in law beat me at sitting the rides. After going on the ship with my cousin brother, the trio took on the Corkscrew while I looked after my nephew. The father in law is about 65 years old. >.< *shy*
Poor nephew cried his little heart out when he couldn't go on the rides that we were on. Too short! He's only 4 and a half lah.

Thanks for coming everyone! And thanks to Yin Jia for driving me round to get my shopping done! And thanks to Yee Wei for helping me prep the food! Without both your help, the dinner preparation wouldn't have been so successful!

Garlic Bread Sashimi Platter
Chicken Rice Chicken Soup Char Siew Stir Fry Choi Sam Sweet & Sour Chicken
Barley Tong Sui Konnyaku Jelly
I think we did rather well, no? hee hee =D Everything was home-made too mind you! I cooked everything except for the vege, couldn't stand the stove anymore >.< And thanks to Yee Wei, I didn't have to chop/cut/slice up anything for he volunteered to do it... WILLINGLY Laa.. I wasn't sticking a knife at him kaaay ^o^
Some photos from my CNY eve dinner =D

More work means less me time. But its a good thing ^^ Although it did make me realise how difficult it is to find time to get things done... Repeating the same things (ie explaining things to patients) from 9-5pm 5 days a week is making me dream of work every other night! T_________T""" But its an interesting job, you get to meet different people from various walks of life, not to mention the people whom I work with are really something too! Doctors have their cute moments too hee hee =P Anyhoo, to all you people who will be in Melbourne for the Chinese New Year, drop me an email if you're interested in meeting up for a CNY meal~! Will try to organise something if possible... then at least it won't be so sad case lahhh... ^^ I'm missing out on all the CNY decorations and festive mood back home!! I love it when I step into shopping centres and they have CNY music (or whatever festive music) playing in the background! Or the radio stations! Kinda crappy here... apa pun takda... Might drop by Crowns to have a look at their CNY deco at the Atrium this weekend.. It will be up by this Friday =) Lingies, hang in there! 12 months is not a long time more ^^ I will be back to see my favourite girl soon yaa =D *hugs* Time is flying so fast!!! Aunty will be going home for 5 weeks, leaving me all alone in the house again *sigh* Rachel.... come teman teman before you start uni pls.. ^^ Andddd.... I have not seen Jason since his birthday, and probably will not (unless we meet up for CNY) until......... whenever? ... I met up with Chyong Ying last weekend and we just realised we haven't seen each other for almost a year!!! Boy, am I going to miss this girl when she goes home for good next Friday =( All the best for your summer finals next week!!!

  Silly email has been giving problems! Didn't receive the confirmation mail from uni and hence I rostered myself for work, only to realise later that I am part of the orientation! So unfortunately, I have to cancel my participation =( Even with all the techy emails, its always nice to receive snail mails. Its nice to think that that someone took time to write and send you one =D So, I decided amongst the chaos at work, to participate in the event by Meeta to send a blogger a postcard =) Sorry its a little late!

1 week of quiet-ness at home alone and its all hip and happening again!
I couldn't be happier with my current situation =)
PR stuff is all done so all I have to do is wait.
I managed to get a part time job and I enjoy what I'm doing because the people there are just fun to work with. Not to mention it gives me spending power too ^^
Happy? You bet'cha!

Sometimes, not all new things are better.
At one point or another, we would have made wishes to have a bigger house, to be taller, to be richer, to be thinner, to be fatter, to be prettier, to have a drop dead gorgeous girlf/boy friend (but then you would so afraid of people stealing =P)....... you get the gist. Amongst all the materialistic wants, pause for a moment and think, if you weren't the way you are, you wouldn't be the unique you at all. So before you make the next wish of having bigger boobs or sexier lips, think about the real you.

now, now.. I always knew you were a teensy bit...err... Oh what the heck. obviously, YOU are the one who has gone a bit bonkers! Stop talking to yourself before siew pau decides to steam himself and become a white pau! Hmmm... come to think of it, a few of us have a very interesting list of err .. extended err ... names for a few of us in the group lah... List of names: Sotong, udang, ketam, tweet tweet, birdie, siew pau, brownie, samsam... Somehow, the names up there all boleh masuk perut kecualikan samsam. In case you were wondering what sort of weird alienated name is samsam, it just means aunty :P Its for the bellaunty
Wise words of this mafia lady's friend (reality show on TV lahhh).. Hmmm, do you think you can botox my ass?
I mean, the plastic surgeons should really start thinking of inventing some ass botox kan? Why go lipo when all you need is a jab in the ass to make that flabby droopy thing be all perky again, right right right?? More moo-lah for less work!! Yeah!
Okay now all you fancy schmancy science (pfft) students can go perah otak to become the famous Ass BotoxTM fella. =D
