Buang Balik Lah!

Oh, I meant THROWBACK. :P Ello Ello!  It is the time of year when you should never forget your umbrella. Brisbane has been trying hard to adapt the new season - as we have to finally say hi to autumn!

Normally we enjoy the first four weeks of uni, but now there's no such thing called honeymoon period for this semester. Does this tell the difference between a first year uni and second year uni student? hmph.  Anyways, while struggling with assignments, reports, job etc, I'm glad that I am still alive. Sometimes when I feel like giving up, I remember God never gave up on me. 

:]]

-Throwback a.k.a Buang Balik- To remind myself how blessed I am. Despite of the heavy workloads, I was enjoying life :) To be specific, FOOD. blehh. 

Met up with these bunch of engineering friends, no Korean food this time, 'we went Japan'' / / Made some mini cheesecakes for sister's friend's birthday / / On a rainy day having lunch while I was walking around Wednesday Market / / A-finally-dinner-together Japanese meal with them after the lectures and tutorials marathon

Sneak peek of my sem 1 timetable, hiak hiak I have no Monday blue, but Tuesday instead.

9 hours prac per week, bring it on, FOOD1001 practical classes should be fun.

Anything about food, I just can't resist muahahaa.

It is time to face the whole new semester after my 2 weeks holidays. -.- Feeling quite annoyed because I have not enjoyed my holidays to the max yet, but on a brighter note I'm excited to meet my uni-mates, and what's more, my bffs from Miri are now here with me. 

It's gonna be a good good night  sem. 

Yeh it's just feel so good. Good night. 

Swot vac - I'm still alive.

Hi, the last day of swot vac. Thank God, I'm still alive.

To sum it up,

1. The BSL fighting group
I totally forgot who came up with this idea to create a FB group. All of us should really thank the founder of BSL fighting group. I felt really thankful and blessed to be in one of the members. Those girls and boys in the study group have eventually made 'studies' easier (by a weeee bit). Oh, why is it named as BSL fighting group? Cos our group is rooted to Biological Science Library - the 24 hours study space.

The funniest thing was we are now friends with the old security guard. Remember there is this thin old man who is always punctual, checking our Student ID at 8pm, scolding us for being toooo noisy and also, waking us up if we fall asleep? Yes, that's our new friend! In fact, he is quite friendly.

BSL is the newest library in UQ and everyone likes to study there for its new environment. So I reckon that is one of the reasons why we named the group as BSL fighting group. Not only on studies, but fighting on the group room reservation. Early bird owns the room! Thank God we managed to have a room for at least 6 hours every day during swot vac. And we are seriously in love with Group Room 6 in level 3.

2. Coffee
I can't emphasis enough HOW MUCH I HATE COFFEE now. But I need the caffeine. *sob. All of us have been drinking at least 3 cups of coffee since last friday. Nah, we got them for free! As there is this coffee machine at the side kitchen of International House (one of my friends lives there), and we help ourselves!

Now is the caffeine resistance that worries me a lot, perhaps my body cells have this resistance to fight against caffeine, even three shots of espresso do not work on me! Then the night before this I tried MOTHER and it tastes seriously bad - just like the 'dettol'. I had a few sips and started feeling dizzy so I guess I should really stop drinking caffeine now.

Noted I'm not addicted to coffee, but sick of it.

3. FOOD
All the food lovers gather in the study group! Our new love is the chocolate MARS PODS muahaha. In contrast, we ate a lot of fresh cucumber slices. Yes, at least we can claim that we reached that healthiness equilibrium.

4. Sleep
5 hours sleep is enough for us, but after two days of having only 5 hours sleep, all of us were just like zombie. So on Tuesday, all of us decided to have a really good sleep so that our 'battery' get recharged! That night... I went to bed at 8.30pm and woke up around 5am. FELT SUPER DUPER SHUANG LAH. but too much sleep made me tired again.

what the heck is all of these hormones doing inside our body?

anyways, it comes to an end and it's time to get involved in that WAR!
In 7 days time, I'll be free free freeeeee oh yeahhhh.

Good luck lah guys! All the best.
