cos the weather's so depressing!

2 Magazines have arrived in the mail today! How fantastic. I get updates! (: Whee. Not hot goss, like IH goss, but real time happenings. In the know baby. I need to be in the know.

Its been raining cats and dogs since, what, early afternoon? Yes I did want some rain. Buts its now reached the extent of depression!

Tonight's Club Night. ICON should be top of the list. But the weather's such a bummer! Really.

Dear me, I'm so used to convenience and I hate that I have to walk 2 floors and a distance to do my laundry. Alrighty then. Plan to plan from now on. Yet, it still hits me between the eyes. Fine. A nice cosy room comes at the price of some...walking.

P.S the dates on the blog are a tad screwed.

where's my camera?

I was thinking of taking a photo of the lovely gray sky high up above, but due to unforseen circumstances ( or rather the messy state the room is in), I shall just describe it to you. Anyway, that's what media kids do best, ain't it?

Last night was just about the warmest day I've had in my bed. With no other connotations in there! (What were you thinking...) But seriously, it was sweltering hot. In short, I need my fan back. Oyes.

And to make things worse, I had to pull myself outta bed at 8ish to get to the EXC by 9. Suprise surprise! Guess how I got there. The express way of course -TAXI ! :D I know, i know more discipline and thriftiness. But hey, 8AM? Do the want my life or what.

In totally unrelated news, school begins in a day's time. Apprehension, Anticipation and surely gonna be one helluva Allocation! The 3 As. How rockin. Plus, things're gonna get pretty full swing as of March and the next 10 weeks or so! Excitement yummy yummy!

For now, I'm absoutely contented with my personal space at the corner room of Wahdam. I guess there's nothing to gribe about. It is afterall a pretty decent room. And carpted at that. So I'll leave you there. Pictures will be up soon.

OH! How could I forget. LION KING TOMORROW! WITH THE HOUSIES! Thats gonna be a lovely kickstart to the semester I reckon. AHHHH LAVINIAAAAAAAAAAAA. Oh I'm lovin this (: And then its academia acamedia stupid macadamia.

So many things going on that just put a smile on my face. The Doc Cheng's chef I helped for his competition has emerged the winner!! Am tres thrilled. Excited. He beat so many other top chefs! I AM SO PROUD! (: so much pride I tell you. He owes me a damn good meal when I get back!

Right lovies. Miss the bunch of you back. Love you lots!

it was my choice


there isnt much left to say these days,

they're all mentioned over coffees, mochas, burgers and food. the epitome of melbourne, if you will.

carried away by the breeze, swirling among the leaves.

sometimes i think going to grampians has been the best thing that happened to me since i got here. i absolutely loved it. and need more of such therapy.

now june, please fly by.

you know? with no deadlines to meet or academic stress of any kind, i really should be more carefree than this.

what. is. going. on?

counting the days

BROWNIE BATTER!
You scored 85% SWEET, 70% CHUNKY, and 74% UNIQUE!
brownie batter ice cream with a rich brownie batter swirl

Mmmm....you are a very sweet mix indeed! You are warm, loving, and caring to all those around you, but you're not boring in the least! You have a wild streak and a creative, unique streak, too. You are a great friend, an interesting person, and you know how to have fun without ending up crouching over a toilet bowl. Nice!

like a freshly peeled orange

I dont know how big this font seems on your computer but it looks rather tiny from my screen. Okay, anyway, today was what I came back to early for.

THE GAMES baby. THE GAMES.

Ask mel, today was quite the adventure all the way to Chadstone. Highlight was definitely grabbing each other when we found the centre. We're such a couple of country BUMkins :) Good to know I spent (or more appropriately, wasted) 3 hours at the centre. So wanna know what I like about Melbourne? Or what places there are to visit? Come to me sweetie!

On a more serious note, sometimes I wish I didnt head back to earlier. There're so many things at home that are worth my time. Meeting friends, spending time with family. Priceless. Well, maybe it cost an air ticket. Wanna get me one?

When I have time to reflect, I end up in dilemmas.

Note to self: Find big shirts and more shorts to wear. Its summer. Right?

Oyeah. Bring it on.

She says, "Stay with me"

I was just telling mae how much of procrastinator I am with my packing. Seriously, I'm leaving my house tonight at 8plus.

So what am I still doing here, typing this post.

Maybe I don't wish to leave. Not yet.
This intertia I can't seem to kick off.
It couldn't be The Beatles I'm listening.

Either way, I'm packing my bag and leaving on a jetplane tonight honeys.

Lots of Baggage to bring over. Its mostly emotional. But anyhow, like a continuous film, this scene replays all the time.

Tonight, 16th Feb
SQ237
leaves Singapore at 23.40
Arrives down under 7 hours later.

To the people who will never see this, I still somehow have to express my thanks. Its been awesome.

I'll leave you with my puffy eyed self, and the promise to shed a few kilos.

Farewell Singapore, you will be missed a hell lot.
but hey,
In a year's time...In a year's time.

one hell of a night

it is this irony, one so uncanny and yet painfully true.

that so called men, will always behave like boys.

Friday I'm in Love

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's grey and Wednesday too
Thursday, I don't care about you
It's Friday, I'm in love

Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Thursday doesn't even start
It's Friday, I'm in love

Saturday, wait
Sunday always comes too late
But Friday never hesitates
I don't care if Monday's black
Tuesday, Wednesday heart attack
Thursday, never looking back
It's Friday, I'm in love

Monday you can hold your head
Tuesday, Wednesday stay in bed
Oh Thursday watch the walls instead
It's Friday, I'm in love

Saturday, wait
Sunday always comes too late
But Friday never hesitates
Dressed up to the eyes
It's a wonderful surprise
To see your shoes and your spirits rise
Throwing out your frown
And just smiling at the sound
As sleek as a shriek
Spinning round and round
Always take a big bite
It's such a gorgeous sight
To see you eat in the middle of the night
You can never get enough
Enough of this stuff
It's Friday, I'm in love

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's grey and Wednesday too
Thursday, I don't care about you
It's Friday, I'm in love
Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Thursday doesn't even start
It's Friday, I'm in love

all i can muster right now

GASP. I'm leaving on a jetplane, only to miss out on pleasure. aural pleasure, hello, what were you thinking?

Of all times, really. they HAD to arrive when i was flying off.


and this too,

and just because i'm missing the concert (which i'm positive will bring the house down)
this is cosolation worthy.

Who kicked a hole in the sky
so the heavens will cry over me
who stole the soul from the sun
and the world come undone at the seams
let there be love
let there be love
I hope the weather is calm
as you sail up your heavenly stream
suspended clear in the sky
are the words that we sing in our dreams
come on baby blue
shake up your tired eyes
the world is waiting for you
may all your dreaming
fill the empty sky
but if it makes you happykeep on clapping
just remember
I'll be by your side
and if you don't let go
it's gonna pass you by

I have 15 more days in Singapore.

You know, I recently understand there is this girl, who never gets enough of her life in Singapore. Yet, she relished the rejuvenating change in environments ever so frequently. Tugged at both ends of her shirt though, she conceeds to the side which is down under.

I think, her name is charmaine.
Hang on, was I talking about myself?
