finally got about getting my own bed
this is my comfy abode
i love it to bits :)
it's so comfy it makes me fall asleep whenever i try to study

meanwhile..
check out what i made for my roomie one saturday morning!
not bad eh!
looks pretty yummy don't it? heh!

and during the mid-semester break
i had the urge to bake
so i decided to try a higher level recipe

strawberry cream cake!

didn't have a sieve to fluff up my flour though
so look at what i came up with

***beams***


yes.. it's all about food..

just received these photos from my sis



totally made my day (or what's left of it)
and prob the whole of tomorrow

i miss u fats!

^___^

i have to study
i have to study
i have to study

invited my friends over for dinner before catching the med review together
but my place is super under equipped
haha
for 6 pax
i had 3 spoons
3 forks
2 pairs of chopsticks
4 plates
2 glasses
2 mugs
and a couple of plastic cups

and the chairs!
4 dining table stools
1 computer chair
1 piano stool

haha!

"Oh man!"

still sick..

woke up yesterday feeling heaps better
but by afternoon i was reduced to an aching coughing nose a-dripping mess
*^&%&^$% give me false hope all
thought i was getting better

i dun remember taking such a long time to recover from flu leh
so i thought ok maybe it's coz i haven't been sleeping well (was trying to study for my test)
so i slept early last night
but ended up waking up every 2 hours to drink water coz my throat was so dry and painful
then i thought ok maybe it's psychological
so i tried adopting a cheerful and "i'm all recovered" demeanour
but it doesn't work either

what to do what to do

*sigh*

anyways i tried going for lecture yesterday
though i was coughing and sneezing and blowing my nose half the time
damn paiseh
here's what i learnt

"2 million Australians are likely to have brain damage from alcohol consumption at current levels. More young people are binge drinking - occasional consumption of large amount of alcohol. This results in the young people experiencing tremors, anxiety, sweating, agitation and in rare cases seizures. These are symptoms we used to think only happen after a decade of drinking"

o.O

save your brains my friends!!!!!!!!!

am sick again..

i'm usually healthy back in singapore falling sick once a year

but i seem to be cracking a record once a month over here..
second time falling sick now
down with the flu virus
and i mean pretty darn sick
fever for 2 whole days
headache
myalgia
sore throat
cough (nonstop)
nasal congestion
sneezing
chills

i was even too weak to shower yesterday ;p

well the thing is
tomorrow's my mid semester exam
but in my current state i'll probably drip mucus all over the paper
went to the doc's and got myself an mc

first time ever that i'm gonna miss a test
*scary*
sucks too coz if i were healthy the topics tested are pretty alright and i have the confidence to get a good grade
*sigh*


*cough*

so good..

it has been pretty fun watching the cook shows at lio's place and cooking meals for myself!
it's like play time in the kitchen! heh..
look at what i whipped up! *beams*
now i know what i need in my own apartment
a nice comfy kitchen


as i was lazing my days away in the cold melbourne winter..
(lio's house has no heater and so i was essentially in hibernation mode the entire time)
a little surprise popped out and brightened by day
*and my feet!*


finally moved outta lio's place after a month of living outta the suitcase
felt like a nomad.. floating and unsettled..
moved into a 2br apt with my 2 other housemates.. charis and i will be sharing a room
dun think i'll make a bad roomie.. but our room's pretty teeny :(
and there's talk abt the rent increasing should we extend the lease of this apt
*stress*
despite the above.. i really like this place
nice modern decor.. clean lines.. cool colours..
and a pretty kitchen!


oh oh oh!
i went to the pahran market!
missy lj told me to check out these gorgeous looking cupcakes!!
took a train to this suburb miles away from melbourne city for this cupcake hunt
so fun so fun! hee
but they look better than they taste..


sorry i took such a long time to update on my goings in melbourne..
school's been terrific but the entire house searching and apt hunting's really dragging me down..
high rent prices..
hardly any 3brs available..
tons of competition..
sucks to feel so unsettled.. i really do try to believe that things will work out..
tho the multiple rent application rejections aren't exactly helping..
will continue to stay positive..

i miss u guys so much..


u have no idea..
;)

i've been playing musical chairs with myself for too long..
i need to choose one and plonk myself on it..

soon

I HAVE INTERNET!!!!!
*pulls shirt over head and runs around the soccer field*

::metaphor people.. metaphor::

the abundance of my posts strongly coorelates to the amount of free time i have at work these days..
i did this up 10 mins ago.. ;p



we had such a great time banging and clanging around
possibly a product of bottled up frustration
or the result of the inner groovy rock stars we are

i'm surprised at how comfortable i felt behind the drums!
can't wait to touch the drumsticks and make some noise again

again!! again!!

hope my zeal for drums lasts..

spekkies..

just thought these are nice.. :)

it was a weekend of sun sea and sand
we were really worried initially coz it's the monsoon season
hours of web surfing told us that krabi rains 28 days in the month of may! so what are the odds that we'll get 4 days of sunshine?
*pulls out calculator*
ODDS = non-existent
but guess what
we were barbecued like hot dogs the 4 days we were there!

sweet!!


Oh and yup..

birthday kueh lapis atop the boot of a car
how cool it that?
*smiles*
Thank you!!!

i don't want to come back

hey babe..

everything is going to be ok

welcome back ddwwwiiii!!!!!!
*muah muah muah*

how do you know..

if you've chosen the correct path?

i like thaipusam..

i do! hee..

i like..
*that my bus was going so slowly along the congested roads it made me watch the people conquer the streets
*the smiles on their faces as they dance and prance along with the devotees
*the devotees looking so happy even though they had chains pinned to their skin and humongous structures over their shoulders
*that there are people from hyper kids to old folks with headful of white hair supporting the brave warriors
*that there was this guy who managed to smile through the rod that was pierced through his cheeks
*the amount of effort they put into constructing the massive structures some with blinking lights some with fur some with feathers some with 5 tiered bouncy things
*the ang moh tourists trying to take pictures with their digi cams

heh!
