Finally done with my summer semester. I'm not going to do it end of this year because I have my holidays plan ready!
And I'll definitely celebrate my CNY 2015 in Malaysia. I promise. And I hope I won't break the promise.
Anyways, just a quick little update. Flying off to Sydney tomorrow morning, have classes sign on on Monday and Tuesday (haih), getting my DSLR after the trip (yayyy) and welcome my loveliess. It will be real busy before semester one starts, but I'm ready for it! Bring it on.
And oh yea, preparing a secret project. Stay tuned.
It was a normal Sunday to be thankful with. Normally my Sunday is the day for God, friends, family and dramas!
But today was a special one. A Sunday well-spent brings a week of content!
First of all, the day started quite badly. It was the pair of heels that I wore to Sunday service this morning. It hurts my feet and I looked so clumsy and awkward while walking. I should never wear heels anymore.
Second, it was so embarrassing that my index finger started bleeding while I was playing bass guitar during praise and worship this morning at Sunday Service. LOL at myself, like seriously! It's because the wound I had few weeks ago has not yet fully recovered. Thank God I managed to finish the whole session! All glory to God.
Then I had lunch with my family. My grandma and two sisters. A funny conversation that we had in the cafe and we laughed out loud - still can't believe my grandma can be so humorous lol lol
And I baked the Matcha Chiffon Cake with red bean. It was my first attempt on Chiffon Cake - I've never tried to bake it because according to my mother, it is very challenging to bake a perfect chiffon cake! My sister and I decided to take the challenge since we had nothing to do, but we left a mess in the kitchen. Following steps by steps till the moment before we needed to fold in the egg whites, we realised that we forgot the most important ingredient - BUTTER! #!(*$(#$)$(%__!#$@(*#$!@*&$(*%@(# My sister was pissed off by my carelessness. haha no wonder the mixture looked like dough lah! Okay, at least we got a not-so-perfectly baked chiffon cake at the end. it doesn't look photogenic, but definitely nice to taste :p
THEN I GOT A HEART ATTACK. I have a paper review due at 8am tomorrow morning, that weighs 10% of my overall grade. I couldn't log into the course resource page to upload my file! Apparently everyone's having the same problem and the lecturer has eventually extended the deadline. Good or bad, nah, don't judge it lol.
A few minutes later, I had to make my decision on my courses in Semester One 2014 and arrange my timetable as well! Guys! Help me, should I do a course which is assignment based, that has no any lectures, tutorials or prac classes. What I need to do is to write three research reports and work under supervision of an academic staff! No lectures?!!! Sounds so tempting to me, but three research reports which add up to 10,000 words don't sound too good lol. While the another course, I have 2 hours lectures and 3 hours practical classes every week! What should I do? :(
Sigh.
After that I lied on my couch and fall asleep till an incoming FaceTime call. It interrupted my afternoon nap, I grumpily threw my phone to my sister and continued sleeping. Bah bah, I guess this was when I started feeling grumpy. Somemore I woke up by a sudden starvation - time for dinner!
DINNER? DINNERRRR?! Tell me what should I have for my dinner. Had nothing left in the fridge except those unhealthy food and I didn't really want to eat them after the unhealthy lunch this afternoon. This boosted up my grumpiness level and KABOOMM, I ended up shutting myself in my own room and watched 天才冲冲冲.
HAHAHA, it was definitely the best decision I've ever made throughout the day. It successfully cheered me up. Meanwhile, the random twitter tag by my friend made a bright smile on my face too.
Last but not least, I made a house inspection for my friends and heyyyy that is a really nice property. I wish they can get that property as it is really near to my place - PARTY'S ON! Fingers crossed.
So la, overall it is a great day, I'm sipping my peppermint tea to get rid of that unpleasant stomach bloatedness. I hate PMS, I hope this hatred will not develop to a mental illness.
It was yesterday, I guess my friend sensed my grumpiness while I was chatting with him. Then he sent me this.
You have PMS and a handgun. *Hands up* I surrender.
LOL LOL LOL.
Okay, done for today. Normally I will do this on my dayre cos it's much more convenient to type on my phone, but there's too much to say today! Too much ranting is bad for my soul, so I should stop now. I'm pretty sure I will have a great week ahead even though i have to countdown to my finals.
For those going to back to their hometown for Chinese New Year, Happy Chinese New Year in advance!
Hello 2014! Finally up here on my blog! Dayre has made everything much more easier - I have been blogging on dayre everyday but am always lazy to blog them here. yes yes, on dayre you can just talk nonsense and nobody cares lol.
Here's the screenshot on one of the most nonsense thing I have been telling on my dayre. I apologise for my obsession on superhero film based movies. Somehow I don't live in fairy tales - the prince on the white horse will never be my superhero. The wolverine is my kind of man. muahhahaha. look at his claws, too charming.
lollolll. okay im just joking.
Finally I watched The Wolverine 2013 last night. It was awesomeeee! Am really looking forward to X-men 4: Days of the Future Past.
ohh too much on movies. It is time to get back to studies. The clock is ticking, my final assignments will be due on next Friday, 800 words to go. Yet I have no motivation to do it! I miss those time when we were all together, crashing each others lectures; being bad friends persuading each others to skip lectures just for lunch; dragging each others along to different tutorials etc etc. I need you guys back!
My friend just whatsapp-ed me this photo and I can't stop laughing. and along with the picture, he said, "Look at the wolverine that you love, the veins. omggg so not healthy"
-.-
okay sorry lollolllll. I'll stop now.
Today's been a productive day! I woke up from a 6 hours sleep, had my brunch and headed to the market for some groceries. I felt so tired and lethargic, haven't recover from the muscle pain caused by kickboxing :S and I made some curry puffs to pamper myself.
what a sumptuous indulgence.
deep-fried some of them but baked most of them as a healthy option.
Do you hear me?
I'm trying desperately not to.
Promise me you'll remember.
I thought you just told me to forget? Make up your mind.
Currently reading Bellagrand. A friend of mine really inspires me a lot: her passionate love affair with books. I remember we used to share our Chinese novels in high school! After moving here, I slowly abandoned my books as I have more access to the Internet. I have always wanted to find my enthusiasm of reading back. Fight for one of my 2014 resolutions - READ MORE!
Okay, time to go. I hope tomorrow will be a productive day in the library - at least 300 words okay? Please. Please Please.
Bye lah! :P
Oh, before that, Pacific Rim is a really nice movie. I would have to watch it again. Raleigh, I love Raleigh too. :p
Back in Campos Coffee @ Wandoo St, Valley! The last time I was here was a few weeks ago, but I had dessert instead of breakfast there. So yea, this visit was an official breakfast visit!
Story Bridge
Initially our plan was to jog along Brisbane River only, but I came up with an idea to have our brunch after the jog! Since the cafe(Valley) is not too far away from the starting point (Kangaroo Point), we decided to jog all the way there. It took us around 45 minutes and it was a really fresh start of the day!
Seasonal Fruit Salad topped with Natural Greek Yoghurt and HoneyComb
This was YUMMMMM. The fruits are really fresh and I really love the natural greek yoghurt.
The portion is big, sharing is recommended hey! Perhaps it can be the best dessert after your main breakfast. :D
Rare Beef Salad
Served with pawpaw, beansprout, coriander, baby rocket and beetroots.
Again, YUMMEZ to the max. The meat was tender and well-cooked. I love how they mix the veges and fruits. The sweetness of pawpaw accompanied the bitterness that baby rocket has.
(fyi, I can't eat baby rocket without salad dressings)
happy me with my breakfast.
Oh yea, I had the freshly blended orange, pineapple, apple and watermelon juice!
After that, we shopped around at the James Street Market and jogged all the way back to Kangaroo Point! The afternoon was really hot and my face eventually got sunburnt.
But it was indeed refreshing after a nice jog!
I'm planning do it once in a fortnight - the jog and brunch morning!
Happy us with happy tummy muahaha.
Anyways, Happy winter solstice aka 冬至 ! I'm not a big fan of tang yuan, but it is a tradition to eat it during the festival. It is a really really blessed winter solstice as my family touched down in Brisbane this arvo!
It's gonna be busy but relaxing with family around! In fact, I need to catch up with my studies too. I keep on reminding myself that my summer semester has not over yet! Hold on! 4 more weeks heyYy!
Hello everyone! Finally I'm back to my blog - I've been updating about my life on Dayre since I have an account. Blogging on phone is apparently much more easier comparing to laptop, but still, I love my blog.
Christmas break is finally here! We wish you a merry christmas we wish you a merry christmas we wish you a merry christmas and a happy new year! muahahaha, I can't tell how happy I am for this christmas break, the happiness that I never never never had before. Perhaps it is due to my summer course.
You know how happy I am?
The picture talks.
Ciao! Time for drama marathon & FaceTime!
Two more sleeps till our christmas party! Gotta rock the night. Stay tuned for photos!
I'm in the midst of catching up with my lectopia. Over a semester, I realised that appearing in a lecture hall does not mean that you will get every single bits of information that the lecturer has delivered. In fact, you have to kind of 're-attend' the lectures at home by logging in ECHO, getting your earphones up and yea, start jotting down notes. oh i mean, listening to lectopia.
So, why bother attending the lectures in person?
haha, oh well, after skipping one lecture, there comes the second, third... and the rest of the semester? no no, I'm not gonna repeat the nightmare that I had last semester. So, Clare! Go to lectures tomorrow.
Whatever. I'm drafting this post because...
I have something for myself.
Hey girl, I am not as strong as you thought.
"Action without vision is only passing time, vision without action is merely day dreaming. but vision with action can change the world." - Nelson Mandela
It is true - vision with action can change the world. But, bad or good, I do not get a chance to judge it. Normally, others judge you. bah.
Anyways, actually I was planning to copy paste everything that I have posted on my dayre while I was on the way to uni this morning. It reflects my mood over this summer, in summary. But I reckon my dayre should have its own copyright (haha), so here's the link to it! http://dayre.me/thisisclare
Summer isn't summer this year. Everyone rmba how hot it was in summer 2012.
2 more hours to the mid of the week, I can't wait for my christmas break. gatherings, shopping, food & of course, family. :)
Buhbye!
Oh before that, I hope this picture can satisfy my craving. T___T
Because blogspot and instagram are too mainstream, let's get on dayre! I get to know dayre through xiaxue's blog, but did not join dayre as there are not many of my friends owning dayre accounts.
I eventually decided to create an account because I do not want to spam my instagram! (Actually I've been spamming my wechat timeline but I do not really want my parents to view my post bahahaha) Therefore, dayre.me/thisisclare is born on 5 December 2013! Want to know the exact reason on me creating this account? Visit my dayre and check it out! bahahahaha.
Dayre sounds like dairy - I guess it is time to keep a habit on writing my diary! I used to do it in the beginning of this year, not updating my life in the form of words, but drawings! It is really funny, i'll pick a few and post it up in my next post!
Ciao~ Mood gets better, for tomorrow is FRIDAY! But it is sad, still, for I have two assignments to complete. T______T
Hi guys! Just a little quick update before I go to bed. *I had a seriously long nap from 6 to 8pm and I am tired now for it is 11.30pm. goshh, what's wrong with my body?
*silly me talking to the spongebob? -.-
A friend of mine has just texted me telling me she is bored. I once had this feeling before back in a few months ago. When you have nothing to do, boredom strikes and I guess being pessimistic is a form of self defense towards boredom. The longer you are bored, the more you will think and the more you will appear to others to be depressed. That's just a... cycle?
It didn't take me long to understand why I appear to be happier and upbeat since semester 2 started in July - and why I had such a wonderful semester. Even though I was busy with studies and assignments, couldn't stop complaining about how much I hated assignments, I did enjoy the time. That was the precious time when I could get rid of boredom and yes, no longer needed that pessimistic to fight.
You may be like me. I simply got off to a bad start in 2013, but I definitely grow up throughout the year. People around me were my role models - for getting in a negative atmosphere around negative people, in the beginning I got defeated but sooner or later I realised the negative attitude that I had developed was MY own problem. I began to observe myself and began to understand: that wasn't what I wanted, I was expecting nothing good.
In fact, on the other hand, for mixing around with positive thinking people, encouragement comes from any source. Recovering from disappointment of any kind is not something that just happens to anyone else. That was the decision to gather the fragments, face the unpleasant past and let go.
Therefore, get a plan up for the days! I'm taking charge of my own life: don't let life to manage you; you manage it. It is not merely getting up every morning, get dressed and waiting to see what happens. Soon, you will realise how much your day would be if you took time to think about what you are about to do before you do it.
Well, just sharing my random thoughts, but this was my true experience. Perhaps my words are not encouraging enough to make everyone to think positively (oh sometimes I do think negatively), you should probably stare at the picture below! BAHAHAHA
Life during summer has been good. I am pretty sure I'm gonna fall in love with it soon.
Being sociable isn't that easy for me. In comparison with some of my friends, without a doubt I will probably be the noisiest one among the gang. However, the moment when I need to meet new friends - ohh, one word. awkward.
I get to know more friends in uni, I'm not sociable, but really thank God for giving me a friend who is really really really sociable. haha, can't describe how sociable my friend is. However, the first impression my friend has on me was bad, oh not that bad though. She thought I was the 'coolest' person in the world! When both of us talked about this, we laughed out loud.
So, yes, I reckon I should take Communication as my electives in order to improve my social skills. bahhh. In fact, according to many, I'm talkative. I talk too much. Of course, to clarify, this happens only when the person I'm talking to likes talking as well!
Everyone tends to stay in their comfort zone. When I have close friends around me, I will not bother to meet new friends! (hmmm, not good!) Anyways, I'm starting to love meeting new friends, different people and different cultures! I smell adventure!!!
Oh well, these people conquered my house last night. Steamboat, followed by a birthday surprise & movie marathon from 10pm - 4am in the morning. Everyone was too tired to go home and decided to sleep at my place!
After 4 hours sleep, a really old cranky man (yes, he's probably getting grumpier for he needs to work in the early morning) woke all of us up when he was repairing the neighbours garage gate. UH-HUHHH.
-
Lala. I can't wait for the girls talk tomorrow night. Another party is on. Before uni comes back into my life! Summer semester officially starts next Monday, and sadly I have 8am classes from Monday to Thursday. Oh wish me luck!
For those who are going on vacation/already enjoying their holidays in Malaysia, yes I AM JEALOUS and stop making me jealous.
My phone rejects all photos of durians, laksa, shopping centres and also, the sky.
Aiya, it is the last day of Spring, but it feels like winter. Believe it or not I'm wearing my winter pyjamas. At the same time when I'm typing this, I'm tutoring my sister on Maths B (it is seriously killing me, it was so easy back in my Year 11!). And also, I'm bitting my green apple to ease my gastric pain but it seems to be making me more hungry. Apparently having afternoon tea isn't a wise decision as you will probably skip your dinner!
this might be a point-less post, I have nothing to do when sister is doing the sample questions.
it's November now. This year has been a really short year, don't get me wrong, there is still 24 hours a day, 30 days a month and 365 days a year for 2013, but I just felt like.. i'm only up to June 2013. A few words to conclude my 2013 - A far off memory for a scattered dream. or perhaps, the other way round, a far off dream for a scattered memory. nah whatever.
There is a time for everything - let's call it the cycle? time to weep, time to mourn, time to laugh and time to play! And I believe God has assigned me the right cycle to follow.
However, I'm afraid to recall, such a big coward to remind me those stupid memories. For the people, for all the chaos. However, the only thing that I would like to remind myself is my courage to give up on explaining - to those who love to think the way that they want to. I get really tired of doing the same old thing all the time, despite of my determination to do it differently, I'm afraid to do it, to do the new thing. And therefore, I gave up to get out of the rut. For the days in future, I need this sweet little reminder. Everyone needs it anyways!
Which was worse when left unexplained? A life? Death? Nahh, not such a big deal, at least I thought it is not. It's probably just a few second of the scattered memory, which is, yes, only deserves a few second.
But more than enough for a reminder.
Just like what a friend advised me: for a person who comes blank in your mind, without that explanation, you lose nothing. so why bother it?
Yes, I've learned the lesson hard. I mean it.
Of course, to be optimistic, I can exaggerate my happiness in 2013! Really really counting the blessings where I got the chance to travel around with awesome friends. First was Sydney followed by Tasmania! Nothing's better than travelling around, snapping photos and of course, eating ahaha
Oh wait, I should stop here, leave the rest for my 2013 conclusion post!
It's the third day after exams, and I'm feeling bored. Opps, sorry I didn't mean to be sarcastic to those who are still having exams this week. I'm pretty sure you guys will feel the same way as me after exams.
The post-exams syndrome? NAHHH not PTS-ing.
Of course, after exams, you get relieved from stress, and you start to question yourself: what should I do? Cleaning? Watching dramas? Shopping? Or for guys, gaming?
You take out your to-do list which you have written during exams period, there are 20 of them.
But then you are too lazy to start the first task.
Thank God I braced up all my determination on Saturday morning and washed my car. It was a sunny morning and I was exposed to that scorching sunlight for at least 3 hours. I was sweating over once I finished it! (Guess what, there will be thunderstorm in Brisbane for this coming week. oh plssss!)
Then I did my laundry, cleaned my room and settled all the billing stuffs. Headed to church for fellowship, and so concluded my Saturday. Well-spent but seriously exhausted.
Sunday! A morning with God and headed to IKEA after our korean lunch. Somehow I really love IKEA shopping although it is tiring. We spent more than 2 hours there! Got some stuffs for the house but yes, I gotta visit IKEA anytime soon. (blahh.)
Finally, back to gym. Once again I am feeling alive. Running on treadmill for 30 minutes + 15 minutes cross-training + some weight-lifting. The night after, my body was really sore, uhh but the feeling was gooood!
Yea and MONDAY which is today, I woke up late. Sister expected me to prepare breakfast for her but I slept in. A 9 hours sleep from 9.30pm to 6.30am - feeling so refresh! Cooked a really big breakfast to pamper myself, with my favourite green matcha smoothies in the jar. It was a really good kick off breakfast.
However, I got tired/impatient while waiting for an electrician to come to settle the solar system problem. I was lying on my couch watching the TV and felt so lifeless (LOL) Finally, he came, switched on a power switch and left in 5 minutes. I was like O.O cos he could have instructed me on the phone cos it was really super easy to do! Just to get the switch on, that's it. But still, he must be so helpful to come all the way down from (lol, somewhere out there) to help me.
In the mid-day, I got a phone call from an unknown number and was told that my piano was on the way! WUHOOOOO. Oh yeaa my baby is here now, right in front of me.
Apparently I was too lazy to drag myself to gym - too lazy to drive! So I decided to go some toning workout and cardio at home muahahaha. The links below are the workout that I've done today. Try them!
I personally love the Victoria Secret abs workout, it was tough at the beginning when I first started to do it few months ago, but it's getting easier!
Oh I have gained weight! ARGH, I can foresee that during study week and exams period, but still, I felt really grumpy and even scolded myself for the lack of discipline on my food cravings. The main cause of my weight gain is probably because of the eating patterns and lifestyle within these three weeks. I did not get much chances to move around, my butt could stick on the chair for more than 10 hours per day (except going toilet and showering). Meanwhile, we had all those snacks to keep us awake, and I'll never forget the night when all of us were struggling on whether to open that bag of chips or not! opppsieee. Also, 3 cups of espresso EVERY morning has eventually made my body so toxic I guess. Time for detox heyy.
Time to shed some kilos away for the summer! (sounds so familiar, bahaha)
Procrastination doesn't work - don't slack! Cheers for a healthier body and better lifestyle.
ahahaha, sorry for this long and lame post. Off to dinner & of course followed by a dessert session! (Yes, I'm still enjoying good foooood!)
YAYYYY. It's Friday. All glory to God, I survived the week! Of course, not to forget those crazy laughters that my friends and I had during lectures and classes.
Well, remember about the good news that I shared last week? Here comes the another one. The another twin of mine - the ugly duckling is coming to Brisbane soon! Ohmygoshhhh I can't wait till the days us three are together again bahahaha. hey duckling I look forward to your arrival: your big face, your pimples, your long curly hair and your huggies.
I think we can be a great combination: your big face, E's small face and my medium face. *bahaha.
The moments that I've been waiting for! finally, please, 2014, treat me well with all these people around? fingers crossed.
2014-2018, we gonna rock Brisbane all over again, just like how we did in Chung Hua the 4S1.
So, uni's been treating me well so far, I love uni. Perhaps these changes of mindset are caused by my 4 months long break after I withdrew from my previous course. I enjoy uni now, and enjoy every single bits of it: the assignments, the exams, my group mates, my coursemates and my lecturers. ahaha, although I always skip lectures, I still love my lecturers okay? blahh.
Assignment might be dreadful, but sometimes I do enjoy the late night moments, switching windows between chrome, microsoft words and microsoft powerpoint. It is a few precious quiet moments that you can actually give your full concentration on your work. I really enjoy that quietness after 2am: you even can hear the ticking of the clock! Nahh, to be able to do that, I need to get my adrenalin level rising, rising, keep on rising till it hits the peak..
Besides, Exams was okay, apparently i love assignments more than exams, but exams give you a chance, oh well, FORCE you to get back on track on what's going on in your courses. Thanks to the mid-semester exams, or else I'll just put myself at that critical point where I need to hide myself in my room to catch up the lectopias throughout the whole semester before final exams.
okay lah, just a quick post about my uni life, and also sharing that extremely good news. This will definitely make my weekend a colourful one. What's on for weekend? A few rewards for myself after this busy week: a Saturday's brunch & a catch-up dinner with the lovelies! Stay tuned!
The sky was not changing today. It stayed cobalt blue throughout the day, if it was winter, I would be really glad as the sun can at least release heat and warm us up. But not today, the last day of winter, oops, it's the beginning of spring. I felt my skin touch the sun. I felt the heat and passion that spring has shown us the humans! Yes, spring has sprung! Yayy for that? oh I doubt it.
"Don't complain this complain that lah. Winter complain, summer complain, now spring also complain. aiyoyoo. somemore at malaysia also complain. "
for today is the National Day in Malaysia, let's show this little speciality of Malaysian English wahaha.
Life has to end, but love doesn't.
Ahh this might sound emotional, but note that I am not emotional right now when I am typing this. lol. I guess that is how a random thought strikes and you just gotta deal with it! hahaha, again, dealing with something?
Today's exams reminded me of the days we had our examinations in high school. We could meet in the toilet after exams and discuss about the questions; we even moved the long benches from Form 2A to ours - 4S1. nahh sometimes we stole 5S1's bench. Everything's still clear in mind, but I can't see my friends' smile outside my classroom, bringing me past year exams paper/food/whatever.. Apparently those senses weaken! And another heightens - MEMORY.
Memory becomes our partner, we nurture it, hold it and dance with it.
Hey. This is Week 6. (#ohmygoshhh I felt like I'm actually counting the week of pregnancy -.-) Remember I said I welcomed week 5? Thank God it was treating me quite well, despite of I caught a cold and it dramatically transformed to a fever plus headache at the end of the week. That was the most serious flu/fever I have got since I settle down in Brisbane. What makes this to the worst was this coincidence: it was the first week of mid-semester exams.
Anyways, after swallowing two pills and a 17hours sleep, I eventually recovered bahahaha. I wondered what pills had I taken, but whatever, I am healthy now! And ready for the mid-sem exams?
I hope so la.
Yea okay, gtg, 250 more bio questions waiting for me and I must complete them by tonight!!!! oh well, by tomorrow morning I guess. No more sleep for tonight, am pretty sure I can do it!
Yes, WE can do it, best of wishes to that friend out there, you told me not to give up, so let's work till the end together! :)
Uh-huh, it's Monday again. I thought waking up at 6.30am for a 8am lecture is a nightmare, but somehow I didn't feel that hard dragging myself out from bed this morning. This week is gonna be a little bit easier compared to last week, hoooray for I don't have any practical classes this week! They are held once in 2 weeks; However, I'm actually looking forward to 'some' prac classes: observing cells is interesting hey! We were asked to look at the LIVE bull sperm cells under microscope last week and the excitement overwhelmed us when we found sth moving/swimming. Fyi, it's quite hard to find them cos they die faster under room temperature...
Nahh, just sharing how fun prac classes are! And so does uni. Well, the feeling of going back to school again...
Last week was a really tough week, but I got to meet up many long-lost friends!
Wednesday - Ian visited Brisbane!
We were classmates for two years and he travelled to Brisbane, so we decided to meet up! It's been two years since we last met.
We had dinner at Boatshed, Regatta Hotel. Both of us think that this is so far the best Australian steak that we've ever eaten. I had the sirloin steak and he had the eye fillet. Mine was tooooo big so I was damn full after dinner. Then, we headed to Hamilton for Max Brenner. Now then I know Ian is a big fan of chocolates!!!
Thursday - Dinner with Anis & WeiLynn
We planned for a catch-up dinner since the first time we met in uni when sem2 started! Apparently both of them were excited seeing me back to uni again. Anis was craving for Korean food, so we had our dinner at Dodomi Korean Restaurant which is located at South Brisbane! It was hard to get a parking slot along the street and hey I suck in S-parking.
I had meat-phobia after eating the large steak the night before, so I decided to go for the Grilled Mushroom Salad. The portion again shocked all of us. -.-
Malaysians halo we are Malaysians.
Coffee at La Dolce Vita! We needed caffeine to keep us awake throughout the night for assignments and stuffs. :(
Friday - Late night supper with Angie @ Bubbles n Clouds.
It was nice bumping into Angie on the way home from Uni in the afternoon, we chatted for a while after we got off the bus and decided to go for supper at night! I was in a hurry that night and we only managed to leave home around 9.40pm.
Bubbles and Clouds are a newly opened cafe along Zamia Street, Sunnybank! They serve nice coffee and italian treats!! I do highly recommend their Bondi Club Chai Latte for the chai latte lovers out there. It's quite a nice and quiet place to chill out at Sunnybank if you don't want to drive far into the city.
Chit-chatting the whole night and playing cards. Okay, I'm bad in playing the 'bullshit' game but I'm an expert in the heart-attack game heyy.
It was a really long night, we got home around 1am and were extremely exhausted!!!!!
To sum them all up, it was a truly blessed week, having fun with friends!!!
What's so good about sleeping?
You get a chance to get rid of EVERYTHING. You give your brain a basic idea on how you want your dream to be, but, apparently your brain can't get your hint sometimes.
I'm a good sleeper to be honest, I seldom have insomnia. I can fall asleep in one minute; and if I can't, I enjoy the time hallucinating (BAHAHA) or just day-dreaming.. Hey sometimes, the story continues in your dream... Until the freaking annoying whatsapp alert/phone ringtone/alarm wake me up.
It was this morning, I was annoyed by my iPad... It was on my stomach & I felt the vibration as there were some notifications coming in.. And the vibration from my phone as well.. It was beside my head... Goshh, I will die due to radiation?
Hi, I'm doing this because I want to keep myself awake. I drank a cup of coffee but somehow caffeine doesn't work on me anymore, unfortunately. Nowadays I can even go to bed around 10.30pm! Okay I should be thankful, because this leads to a healthier life, as I wake up automatically around 6am. then I can eventually spend hours in bed texting, stalking ppl on instagram etc etc.. until my stomach tells me: it's time to feed me heyy.
Nah, just a random mumble. Actually I'm gonna write a review on myself, regarding my 2013 new year's resolution. (I found my 2013 diary on the shelves and apparently I didn't touch it for ages! I flipped it to the first page and laughed out loud at my 2013 new year's resolutions.) Okay, I've actually failed most of them.
1. First year of civil engineering-no more slacking no more procrastination!
Sounds so enthusiastic, but there's no even a chance for me to slack. because I quit after 4 months! The funniest joke that ever happened in my life so far. So much struggles and finally came to that decision. Just gotta bear with all the circumstances. Still, thank God it's almost over, soon...
FYI, I'm doing Food Technology.
2. Sleep early & Wake up early-Live a healthy life
Okay, I should say that I did achieve this since last week, but not for the weeks/months before. 24 hours won't be enough for a student, bahaha.
3. EXERCISE
Yes I do, although I slack sometimes. Recently we've found that a midnight jog makes us feel better; jogging and enjoying the silence.
4. Get a part time job
Oh yea, I got one, but stopped working once the student visa was cancelled. And can only get back to work next semester. That's why I get bored always.
5. Sydney Trip - LEEHOM
HAHAHA, laughing at this, I don't know how can this be the new year's resolution. Crap lah. However, Leehom is handsome, there is no doubt!!!! and he is so talented heyyy.
I jotted down five new year's resolutions on the first day of 2013. Then I've actually found some others new year's resolutions in my previous post.
6. Spend as much time as I can with my family, love them and care them!
No matter what family is always the best. Feel it.
7. Work harder in university!
no comment. if you really want one, scroll up, refer to #1.
8. Keep friendship on sail always, especially those in Malaysia
uhhuh, still working hard on this, but everyone's real busy with studies! A meet-up in April really made me loving them more. Anyways, am too blessed cos I have awesome friends in brissie too!
9. Stay happy no matter what happen, have faith in God
The maintenance fees for happiness are high beyond my ability. still trying hard to achieve the real 'happy-go-lucky' mode. So I guess this is the homework for everyone's life. and yes this should be in our new year's resolution EVERY YEAR!
And actually a few months ago, I added one to my new year's resolutions list: no more deep fried food! Apparently this has become the major failure and am actually gonna make it true for my 2013 SEM TWO resolutions. bahahaha.
