Been awfully quiet here lately. Then again I'm to blame since there hasn't been any updates in over a month. Not surprised if there are some who will assume that I have disappeared. xD
Decided to finally make a new layout. I really like this one! It's so bright and cheerful! Kinda reminds me of a melon somewhat! I chose Massu for this layout because he's sooooo cute I just had to do one! *duh* I didn't really notice him before till recently actually, but now he's become one of my favs! I love him in Summary! And I love that smile of his to bits!!! I find that seeing his smile can really light up my mood! MASSU かわいい~!!!! <3*insert more fangirl babble here*
::Friday in the City::Accompanied Yumi to the city on Friday, though I really didn't have any purpose to go. Sara went too, they both wanted to get out of cell group meeting apparently. We had dinner at Taka... I had chicken カツ!! Yumm... makes me kinda hungry just thinking bout it now actually. After dinner we wanted to go to Northbridge but ended up taking a detour to MegaMart... hadn't been in there for ages. I was seriously like a kid in a toystore in there! xD Then, there was this HUGE HUGE 30 inch flat screen monitor hooked-up to an Apple laptop. 欲しいなぁ~!!!! 無理かな? Maybe... it costs even more than my laptop itself! X_x There was some sort of car exhibition held at Northbridge and I couldn't resist snapping a few pics of the cars... even though I wasn't too crazy bout any of the cars there. The last destination was Tea Fusion. I ordered a peaches and cream tea blend. Yummy!!! But not likely that I'll indulge in it often. xD I saw a rental shop in Northbridge with loads of Jap dramas with JE!!! I WANT!!! But too expensive... *sigh*
::Ice-skating::Went for ice-skating for the first time ever in my life with Sara on Saturday. It was a VH thing... we were the only ones from Canning >_< It was a pretty cool experience. First 10 minutes I hugged the rails then by the end of the first hour I was able to skate around in the middle with Sara. I learn fast. LOL. I didn't fall, thankfully, much as I predicted I would. xD Some stupid Iran guy fell the moment he stepped on the ice, and kicked me with the skates on the leg. Thank goodness the skates weren't sharpened, but still it left me with a bruise! *curses* It scary just watching the Iranians skating... they wipe-out every 10 seconds! ^_^;;;
::Indulging::Listening to Ayura's account of her Japan trip really made me miss that place!! 行きたい!I wanna go there in December!! I wanted to see Summary NEWS version this year but couldn't go!!! *cries* So I finally ordered it, after much debate, along with the normal pressing of TEPPEN and Izayoi no Tsuki. They finally arrived today but I had to pick them up from the PO. やった~! It was SO worth it! I've played Summary 3 times since I think. Lmao. I saw Tackey & Tsubasa's 1+1=infinity photobook going for 400yen only!! And I didn't seize the opportunity and it was gone in 2 hours! そんあぁ… OMG what on earth happened in this year's Looking concert?? Koki was all over Kame~!!! きゃあ~*faints* Koki get off Kame!!
::Monday=Mishaps?::Yesterday morning Yumi gave me a pair of tix to the Search for a Star event. So sweet! She wrote "ラブレター" on the envelope though! xD After lunch I was supposed to go for Econs but I ended up in ESL class for some reason and only realised when my lecturer pointed out to me that I was one hour early! 恥ずかしい!When I got to the library I realised that I had dropped Ying's thumb drive! I ran all over the place looking for it and finally found it on the grass! よかった…
::Stress::This week is gonna be really crazy and so will the next. I have so many assignments and 4 tests next week I don't know how I'm gonna cope! Almost all the syllabuses have been finished. This weekend I have to go to the Search for a Star and UWA Open Day too... どうしよ?!! Was studying up till just now but had the urge to blog just to take a break from studying. Haven't even been going to gym so far this week. 死ぬわ~ It'll all be over by next week... then will start all over again. Uni applications are due this month too. *stress stress stress* All this stress is getting to my head I think... I'm having weird thoughts and dreams lately >_<
I made メロンパン and 弁当! Mwehehe... will put up the pics soon... Oh yeah... it was Uchi's birthday on Saturday! お誕生日おめでとう内~!!! I certainly have not forgotten about him! When will he be back??? Johnny-san please let Uchi back on the teams please???? All his fans are pining for him already! (me included)
My eyelids feel so heavy... 眠い~ Gotta go sleep now...

Yes, I am still alive. xD
When was the last time I've updated again? I forgot. =P Anyways I guess from now onwards my updates will be pretty much minimal. Blogging should be something that I enjoy doing, not feel obliged to do every week...
::Exams::So far I think I've done ok, I thought I had given it my best but apparently not. Applicable was pretty much screwed, much as I tried. Physics was alright I guess. These 2 subjects are really pulling down my score. Econs and Human Bio I was a hair away from 80%. Damn. The only paper which I felt satisfied with was Chem. I did pretty well for ESL too, but not that it matters.
::Holidays::Mum, Mama & Gong Gong came to Perth for holidays for the first week of the holidays. I couldn't be happier to see my family again... I realise that it had been almost 3 months since I saw my grandparents, whereas I used to see them every other day back when I was in Kuching. So yeah we had tons of fun. We went to Fremantle where I got to eat scallops, chilli mussels, oyster and lobster, Subiaco (twice) and Swan Valley, where we went to the wineries and also the CHOCOLATE FACTORY!! Mmm.... We did so many things in between but I'm gonna go into detail. It was a really fun week even though I was exhausted!
The following week I went to Melbourne to visit my friends. For the first few days I stayed at Gabriel's place then Sing Jiat's place for 2 days. I got to see almost all my old classmates again. I didn't realise just how much I missed hanging out with them. Come to think of it we used to be together almost everyday for the past @#)(*$)@# years xD The notable places I visited were:
- The city
- Chadstone
- Glen Waverly (I think it's spelled like that??)
- Springvale
- Monash Uni
- MAX BRENER!!! (FONDUE *drools*)
- Delta Goodrem's Concert!
So all in all I had the most amazing time in Melbourne and I thank all my friends who made my stay so much fun, Gabriel in particular (can't thank his sibs enough for their hospitality). I loved Melbourne, was almost sad to leave, however I still prefer Perth because I prefer the slower-paced life.
::Post-holidays:College has yet again started and even though there have been no tests so far, I find myself leaving my breath behind every so often these days, 24 hours a day is simply not enough! I've made it my absolute resolution to go to the gym everyday and that is exactly what I have been doing since I got back. Everyday I have to juggle classes, gym, housework and studying/homework. Plus, these days there seems to be some tasks which I have to do every other day! So these 2 weeks I've been feeling rather tired and as everyone has probably noticed I've disappeared from the net for a while. *sigh*
So many things have happened during the holidays. Makes me rethink a lot of things I've believed in before. I've been thinking a lot lately, especially since I've gotten back from Melbourne. I knew this was bound to happen somehow. However, keeping myself busy with all the gym and studying has definitely helped me keep my mind off such "useless" thoughts.
Next week the tests will begin again. I'll be busy preparing myself for my TEE exam from now onwards... meaning minimal time spent online. I want to be the best that I can be and I'll probably be getting out of this country and I need the grades!
Lol... I've been told today that I was chosen to go to an Econs forum... now what on earth do u do at a forum? This would be my first time to something like this... Haha... but I look forward to it. All expenses paid and even transport provided! ^^
Oh yes, a birthday shout-out to all the July babes. (sorry about the late ones!)
11 July Debbie
14 July Cass
21 July ZX
23 July Lily
27 July Yumi
29 July Vui Leng
A big BIG Happy Birthday to all of u! ^_^
TEPPEN めざせ~!

Last Friday was really fun, though it seemed to me a little too rushed. Went to city with Ying Ying, Rosalind, Sara and Susan. We split up and went separate ways later though. I went to get my tickets done... so I'm actually going to Melbourne on 11 July at 6:00am! Am I'll be returning on the 17th! Yay! Can't wait! ^_^ I'll be watching Delta too... even though she will be here at Burswood Dome on the 8th of July. Lol.
After that I met up with Sara again and we went hunting for her boots and she did finally get a really nice pair... after much coaxing her father! xD Then I met up with Sarah and we were starving by then so we went to Taka for dinner. I had katsu-don. Yumm.... I'm not putting up a pic of this one this time since it will probably make a lot of people's mouth water... LMAO. I haven't seen Sarah in a long time so we actually had a lot to chat about. Then we got our tickets to watch Mr. & Mrs. Smith. We went to Target to get some stuff for my Godma. We actually went to this shop called Candleman to see this guy who Sarah said was cute! xD He was alright I guess, but not my type. Lmao. We went to Gloria Jeans to kill time after that. I ordered a Tim Tams Ice-blended Chocolate! YUMMY! We watched the movie and by the time it ended it was past midnight! @_@ And it was RAINING! Thankfully when we were on the way back we met Amit and he helped us carry some stuff. MR. MRS. SMITH IS NOW MY FAV MOVIE~!!! IT'S SOOOO GOOD! If you haven't already watched it... GO~!!!
My Tim Tams Ice Blended Chocolate~! <3

The view I see (almost) every Friday while waiting for the bus to go back from the city.
The rain POURING hard.
This whole week had been CRAZY. I could not concentrate on what I was doing the whole time! I had so many tests and assignments that I really had to cram everything... All my lovely sleep gone.. Monday I had a Human Bio prac test... which I was pretty careless.... I dunno what I was doing... I seriously could have done better but the result was ok, just not the best. Tuesday was free but I had to study for my Econs test on Wednesday, which went pretty well, except I had to plead with the lecky to let me finish my answer! I went out with my aunt and she took me to Garden City, and took me to lunch at a classy Jap restaurant called Kome. I had teriyaki fish! xD Yesterday I had a Chem and Physics test! @_@ I seriously almost had a breakdown studying for the two. Chem was ok but Physics was tough... what can I say, it's physics.
Yesterday I went to Carousel with Mimi. We were shopping around like mad! I spent more money than I expected. I bought Father's Day gifts and also a new pajamas! It's pink and SO cute! There were no more buses by the time we wanted to go back and it was POURING. What's more we both did not bring our phones out! We actually had to use a PUBLIC PHONE to get a cab! The cab took ages to come so we waited at the taxi stand... IN THE RAIN! We finally did manage to get a cab and we were soaked by the time we got home... Thankfully Tanvi cooked us dinner! Her lovely shaak and her buns with cummin seeds! I think I've developed a real liking for them! I LOVE the taste! After dinner I had to prepare for my ESL assignment, which so many of you helped me with.
THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP EVERYONE~!!! I stayed up until 3:30am this morning to do it though... which is why I'm SO tired now... I did however go to the city for 2 hours just now to get some stuff and send off the gifts.
Oh yeah... I'm FINALLY gonna get my ADSL connection! I'm gonna download up a storm! I was so surprised when I received a message from iinet that my connection is up and running! FINALLY! After what... HALF A YEAR???? Oh well... at least I can finally get it. I am gonna use up every last bit of my quota! Now all I have to do is wait for my modem to arrive....
Haha... I changed my Applic class to Ying Ying's class... they told me it would be hard to get it done but I did it anyway! xD I also found out that I'm actually doing really well so far! Better than I expected anyways... but I'm still unsatisfied of course! Gotta work harder...
Tomorrow the library is open so that's where I'll be throughout the time it's open... and I gotta do my laundry... darn...
I am so drained now my eyes can hardly open... I really want to crawl into bed now... *yawns*
I think one of my goldfish is dying... *cries*
NewS - I ZA NA IZU KI~!!!

Whew... I can finally post again... and there's tons of stuff I wanted to log! I bought a new pajamas from Coles er... 2 weeks ago! xD It's so comfy!
Godma, Godpa, Jordan, Dayna, my grandma and their grandma arrived on Monday morning last week! That evening they came to my house and gave me all my stuff which they brought from home. I was really really glad to see them as I missed familiar faces from home. After I showed them around the house we went to Uncle Billy's at Northbridge for dinner. We ordered a lot of yummy food! After that we went to Tea Fusion for bubble tea. I had the honey green tea.... yummm.... After that we had a drive around King's Park before they sent me back.
Sizzling Tofu
Sweet & Sour Fish
Sizzling Beef
Jordan & MeOn Tuesday, I had to slog myself through a whole day of classes before I saw them after 5:00pm. We went to Viet Hoa this time. Haven't been there in ages. Had the lemongrass & pork noodles thingy... After which we went back to their apartment at Statton on Murray. The apartment was sooo nice! It looked so sparkly and clean... modern would fit its description. I hung out at their place for a while before they sent me back.
Spring Rolls
Lemongrass & Pork Noodles
Grandma & MeOh yea, this is Ying Ying in the picture... She's so nice... but it's still not gonna stop her from killing me when she sees this. Lmao.
Ying Ying & MeWednesday I finish class early so I got to see my family early! We went to Marapana Wildlife Park, which was about half an hour's drive from Perth. We fed the animals there which were more than friendly! We spent quite a bit of time there before we went to Kings Park to have a look. We had dinner at Old Shanghai.
Many animals!
Llamas... Ugly critters, they are.
Ostrich, it'll take off your hand if u let it, this one...
A cute lil' wallaby!
Koalas!
A cute furry, round little Southern Hairy-nosed Wombat!!! *squishes*
Perth city at night from King's Park lookout point.
On Thursday I had to go through yet another long day... But after that Godma & Godpa both came and picked me up to go to Carousel for late night shopping. I got to buy all my household items... and no need to carry them! Mwehehehe.... I had a Subway for dinner... so no photos for this particular day...
Friday finally came! It was finally the end of the week~!!!! Woohoo~ I took a bus with Aida & Mimi right after class to the city. We were starved so we went to Gelare... which wasn't our dinner! xD I haven't had gelato in ages so why not?? Waffles with cookies n cream gelato... *drool* After that I met up with Godma & Godpa, and we went shopping at David Jones and Target before we went for dinner. I had a fish burger cos I couldn't make up my mind what to have and I had a mango & passionfruit smoothie from Pure & Natural... absolutely deeeeelish~ After all the shopping we had drinks at Java Joe. Then something really interesting happened (interesting?? @_@) This skinny white guy starts to fight with this really big and burly black guy. They were really going at each other until some passers-by broke up the fight with much difficulty. Even with people standing between the two they were STILL trying to get at each other! I reckon the white guy would have never stood a chance! I mean the black guy really looked like he had had some kind of training... pumping iron maybe. Godma was still keen to look on even when we were across the road! Lol. We thought it wouldn't be a good idea for her to take photos. xD Afterwards we headed back to the apartment.
Godma & Me in the cityOn Saturday morning we went for dimsum at Oriental Inn (or at least I think that was the name! xD) Yay~ I haven't had dimsum in a millenium! Lol... after breakfast we went all the way to Rockingham... it's such a beautiful place with it's beaches and all... Let the kids play in the playground and beach before we headed to Mandurah. Mandurah was beautiful as well... we spent quite a lot of time looking at the hand-crafted items... @_@ Really really purty~!!! The glassware and all were hand painted that I couldn't help but get myself one. Problem was though... how to choose? Lol... after some time we decided to have lunch so we headed back to Mandurah and since we felt like pizza that's what we had. After that we went back to the apartment. I cooked spaghetti for dinner that night. =3
Dimsum!

Sunday we had dimsum at Jade Dynasty... because we would have waited more than an hour at Joy Garden! After breakfast we went to Subiaco and I bought all my groceries there. Uber happy... no lugging heavy fruits and veg around by myself. AND of course I bought my Athena yoghurt! Mwehehe... after Subiaco, it was back to the city. Shopped at Target, David Jones and Woolworths. Bought a bath gel & lipgloss for a really really really cheap price! I made baked potatoes for dinner that night. And finally they sent me back home. Aw, it was so sad to part with them again but I really really really had a lot of fun that week! THANKS FOR EVERYTHING GODMA & GODPA!!! *muacks*
Monday was Foundation Day so no classes! My Foundation Day was spent cleaning my room from top to bottom and cleaning the aquarium. I made brownies for the potluck at Canning Mews. Went to Canning Mews at 4:00+pm and came back at 5:00+pm. Had fun and the food was pretty good too!
All the homemade food!
Just me & the girls ^^Now I'm just bushed from all that activity in the past week. The heater had been broken but it's fixed now so thank goodness... I'm gonna take a nice, hot shower now... I really need it... Conclusion? There DEFINITELY has been a little too much eating going on last week and I swear I need to go on a diet! xD
Yesterday was Kimmie's birthday! Once again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIMMIE SWEETIE! I'm glad u had a lot of fun in Japan! ^^ *showers pressies*

I am so relieved that it's Friday again. My tests were over on Wednesday and a great weight has been lifted from my shoulders. I think I did ok for the tests... H. Bio was 54/63 and A. Maths was 28/31.... careless mistakes! >_<
Looks like Japan is now out of my list of options.... sadly.... I really wanna take the Bachelor of Medicine & Surgery/Bachelor of Arts course.... but I'll need 99.25 points minimum!! @_@ WHAT HUMAN CAN DO THAT???
Went to Northbridge with Ying Ying on Wednesday. We ate at Shimizu for lunch. Ended up buying a Japanese book. Ying Ying treated me to a sundae as well as honeydew bubble tea! Yumm.... The place where Ying paid her internet bill had tons of Asian stuff, albeit a bit outdated! There were loads of Tackey, Koichi, Tsubasa and Arashi old dramas.... I was SO tempted to loan some of them... but it was really too troublesome to do the whole registering and borrowing n returning thing... so I didn't *sniff* Oh yea, we ran into Jeff and Miki again...
There was a man dancing in the middle of Murray St Mall... and damn he's good with his feet! It was kinda a mime/popping fusion. Anyways I didn't stay long to watch the whole thing... but I did manage to snap a few photos. Jac took my cable so I'll put up a pic later. >_<
Jiat, don't sweat those kind of problems too much. Everything will become clearer to you soon enough. Just leave it to God's will, I'm sure he'll give you guidance in this matter. Miss you loads. Take care. *huggles*
