~~Party Time~~!!!

ohh... finally i can sit down and slowly update my blog. been very tired last few days, juz lying on bed watching shows and i really dun feel like going out at all ah... whahaha... from last day of exam till next day, i never sleep for 24hours straight... really very very tiring but very shuang and is a total concast the next day. well, i noe is not good to dun sleep for so long lah... and got pple scold me foolish ah... *blek*

anyway, as mentioned in earlier entry, i am going for clubbing. really very "black" day ah.. 1stly me and my 2 housemates, Huiying & Tess and Tess' fren, Sammi went out for dinner before clubbing. we went out at abt 7plus, reaching city at abt 8plus, close to 9 liao. guess wat... by then alot of restaurants close liao. we wanna eat sizzler, end up close liao. went to Beach House, a cafe cum pub, their kitchen already close for the day. so went to see if the Korean or Japanese restaurant still open, end up all CLOSE ah! shit manz! really sway ah... so we ended up going to Coffee Club. food was not tat fantastic but we r hungry so no choice ah.. whaha... wanna eat a good meal, wanna spend $$$ for it oso no chance ah. whaha...

then we met Peiyi to go to her frens' house to gather together while we take cab to the pub. then another round of sway encounters. 1st, we went to Family, one of the most popular club in Brisbane. the layout from wat i see from webby is sort of like MOS but of cos smaller. the queue was horrible. we reached there at abt 12am then started to queue. all of us girls already going to pay for the entrance fees then suddenly Peiyi shouted out not to go in cos one of the guys cannot go in. we ended up leaving the place. the guy fren cannot go in becos of his attire. the ppl-in-charge said tat he wasn't dressing too appropriately. well, act his attire is ok lor. juz maybe he look kinda blur, so they trying make tings difficult. anyway, so we left for the 2nd option. tis time round, the guys went 1st. haha.. end up really sway again... another guy fren cannot go in becos inappropriate shoes. really very sway ah... by then already 12 plus.. then we headed for 3rd pub. the queue was damn long so we decided to go to the 4th one. the queue was long too and tat area tat we went was at Chinatown, very sleezy and havoc area with really alot of pple. so the queue was like very horrible. then juz as we wanna go, my guy fren was stopped again. they tried to tok to them, end up the pple-in-charge let him in. so finally!!! we managed to go into a pub as a group! by then it was 1plus liao lor... we walked around the whole area for almost an hr before we can get in. wowo... the pub tat we went was called Empire. music was okok. me not those who club alot so to me no diff ah... whaha.. my frens were saying not realy nice music. anyway, to me all the same ah.

so abt 4am, we decided to leave the place liao... we went out, wanna take the nite train, but we miss it. wanna walked out and take cab but the queue was horrifying long.. so we decided to walk to city from chinatown but is juz too too cold. so we decided to stop half way and call cab. can u believe it? we called and called, waited and waited but there is no cab! we waited for almost 45mins then there is tis cab who came and said tat he was called by someone. but when he reached there, tat caller already left. so the taxi driver very very kind hearted, he decide to take us. all 5 of us. act cannot take 5 pple but he very nice ah... see us stranded liao... so juz decide to take the risk and along the way home, we kanna 2 road blocks. so scary... cos we have 5 passengers... illegal ah... whaha... so by abt 6am, we finally safely reached home.. it was a very tiring nite... walked and walked, wait and wait.. well, i still watch a bit of soccer before i sleep in the morning at abt 9am ah... so in total, full 24hrs nv sleep. whaha...

as for now, in a house with all students including myself, everyone is having exam but ending at different period of time. with all my housemates finished their examz already, i am the only one left in the house struggling... haiz... so last nite was a battle between TEMPTATIONS & DETERMINATIONS... heehee.. guess who won???

they had a mini party of wine and frozen prawns with chips (my contribution!!!) to celebrate end of examz for them. well, they have every rite to enjoy their well deserved party as we all really suffer alot during tis examz.. huiying gota struggle to study when her heart long flew back to Spore for hols... peiyi gota study when the pain at her 2 ankles r killing her.. i witnessed it myself tat she cannot even walked from kitchen to living tat she got to crawl there... poor girl... tess gota to stay up to study no matter how sleepy she is and for someone like her who sleep in the day, studying in the day really can kill her ah... whahaha... as for my neighbours, Lynnette & Jael.. busy period for them as they r moving out liao.. so gota juggle between studies and packing up.. very xin ku lor..

Chocolates (not in the pic)... yeahz!!! all the most most sinful junk food!!! whahaha... really very guilty when i start to snack on them but somehow i feel better after eating them... hmm, i got a bad practice ah.. eat and eat when i am stress or unhappy.. tat explains my size, i guess... whahaha... & like wat my housemate said, "don't u tink u feel more satisfied after snacking???" haha... excuses but i like it! yeahz...

anyway, i decide to cut down on snacks liao ah... cos is not bringing me good ah... so i went to cut some fruits and put in my lunch box so tat when i feel like eating, i have them with me instead of chips. heehee.. thank u to Pat Pat for reminding me tat fruits r healthier lor... :)

"Appreciating Life" & "Human 7 Greatest Sins"

heehee... i "grab" these blog words from ZR's blogger cos i tink is really quite meaningful ah... (ZR, paiseh ah.. i noe u wun mind lah... :D)

Entry ONE:

"Appreciating Life"

There are moments in life when you miss someone so much, you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real.

When the door of happiness closes, another opens.

But often, we look so long at the closed door,

we don't see the one which has been opened to us.

Don't go for looks, they can deceive.

Don't go for wealth, it can fade away.

Go for someone who makes you smile because a smile can make a dark day bright.

Dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go.

Be who you want to be because you have only one life and one chance to do the things you want to do.

The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past.

You can't go forward until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

Don't count the years - count the memories.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away

Entry TWO:

"Human 7 Greatest Sins"

Pride;

Envy;

Anger;

Sloth;

Greed;

Gluttony;

Lust.

Human 7 greatest sins..

Overcome them... don let them affect u...

and u will find happiness. =)

hmm.. how does all these sound?? strive a meaning to u? well, it does for me ohh.. anyway, back to books for me again.. when my whole house (my 3 housemates) r in holidays indulgence, i am still struggling for my last paper on the very last day of examz... hmph~! i shall resist all temptation & last till the very very end.. smell of freedom is very near liao... i can smell it.. soon soon.. it will belong to ME!!!

last nite, I had a weird dream & it is related to the daily horoscope I read on friendster. Nowadays friendster has tis new function of 'daily horoscope'. Honestly, is pretty accurate. For the past few days, I read mine. It had been quite true. well, to a certain extend, I am someone who believe very much in horoscope too. Last time in Spore, I weekly's weekly horoscope is my FAVOURITE. Haha.. anyway, as I was saying the dream was abt wat the horoscope actually advise. As per the horoscope, it said tat I shld spend some time tinking abt wat I wanna happen in future, something good and positive tat I wish to see happening in my life. I did tink abt it but later I decide to give up the tot as it was totally silly cos whatever I have in mind will nv come true lor. Haiz.. (paiseh ah, issue rather sensitive. I dun wan to say it out as yet. If there is a chance, I shall have a long long entry toking abt it. Haha..) then when I decide to abandon the tot, I act dreamt of it. Haha.. in reality, I can choose to escape. In my dream, how to escape leh? Guess is really something I wanna to see happening in my life, if not y would it appear in my dreams leh? Is making me feeling very very uneasy but I noe is useless for me to tink abt it. The more I tink, the more prob I will b creating for myself, the more irritated I can get. I shall leave it as it is, when the time is ripe, something will come out of it. If it is going to b as it is now, so be it lor. Okok.. better dun tink abt it ah!!! Haha..

anyway, today juz finished paper so wanna give myself some break. so i took out my new digi cam and yan jiu. heehee.. shun bian take some photos of my housemates, myself, my soft toys.. haha.. following r the photos I took... slowly admire ah.. yeahz!

"Ms Lim, dun be so panic. u've done ur revision. u noe ur stuff. u r juz making urself worry for nutting. u r juz stressing for no reason. u had been thru so many big and small examz, u shld noe urself very well. u always always give urself unnecessary stress before examz. u MUZ believe in ur own abilities tat u can do it. u muz have faith in urself.. u muz have confidence.. trust urself, endure till the very last min.. nv give up w/o fighting for it. u need to pull thru every challenge so tat u can a better person in any way u can tink of.. girl, u can do it, k? have faith and believe in urself, k? u have ur support from everyone back in spore (everyone, really?? haha...) & u have ur support from ur Brissy family of soft toys (haha... yeahz!!!) so u muz go thru & prove to everyone tat u can do it!

Jennifer & Me @ my house.. really glad to see her again after such a long while...

hmm... apart from catching up, she is my delivery woman. haha... "hey jen, really thank u so so much... *muacks*" she brought my new digital camera to me. haha... tis is the digital camera tat i had been longing for days, weeks, mths... finally.. is here with me, by my side! yippeee!!! oso muz say thank u to Jasmin, my dearest who helped me to buy the camera... heehee... at a great price somemore. haha..

apart from bringing me the camera... Jen brought me an unexpected pressie from Spore... haha... yeahz!!! guess who it is from? haha.. is from Jasmin! gosh~! nv expect to see the pressie lor. she is really very very sweet ah. "dearest jas, u r the best sia! nv nv expect to see the pressie. thank u very very much... love u so so much...!"

this is the camera tat i had been longing for... Canon Powershort A700. finally! is mine!!! i own it... bought it with my own $$$ lor... haha... proud owner ah! yeahz!!!

here is the unexpected surprise tat i got from her... is tis lovely teddy bear she bought for me! suppose to fly into brisbane with me but becos she could not sent me off @ airport tat time, now tis bear flew here on her own to accompany me (mug for exam). Jas said tat tis bear was done from scratch. amazing sia! there is a secret msg inside... heehee... it writes "friends forver". yeahz!!! jas ah.. is a msg for u and me, k? heehee.. love ya!!!

then yesterday in MSN got tis fren keep asking me go study, and said tat asking me to study is for my own good ah.. haha.. sound so much like "i not stupid" ... then today Jen oso asked me study hard... heehee... suddenly felt so so warmth.. (though is winter here.. so cold...) warmth from spore, warmth from home, from my dearest buddies! feel so blessed with so many pple who cares for me to be around me... okok... for the sake of showing deepest appreciation for all the care, warmth and concern from spore, my family and frens... i will JIA YOU for examz!!! muz score well to repay their effort in encouraging me, supporting me, waking me up to study and reminding me tat i need to work hard...

"have u encounter a love tat is so sudden yet with long lasting impact?"

hmm.. after 1st paper, suppose to start on next paper's revision and i act slack. haha.. die liao ah.. really useless ah. cannot resist temptation. i juz watched a show on TV. oh well, is a movie which i watched before for a hundred times. haha.. Is TITANIC! yeahz!!! very very nice show with touching romance story. haha... all time favourite for most gals.. at least me and my housemates all enjoyed the show. haha... when we r all suppose to be studying, we r watching show ah. haha... anyway, all will be fine and great so juz relax for the nite. then my housemate, Peiyi even suggested to have a drink. so she brought out her white wine and pour us each a glass. usually i dun like to drink. but since she pour liao, juz drink a bit. end up now my stomach not feeling too well, a bit weird weird. tink got effect ah.. later need sleep early and hopefully tomolo will be better... yeahz! tomolo still need go city meet Jennifer, from spore. i will see my digital camera for the 1st time too! haha... yeahz... look forward!!!

juz now when we were watching Titanic, suddenly my housemate, Tess asked a quest. "for a girl, if u come across a man who is very very poor until cannot even really support himself and u met another guy who is god damn rich. u really really love the poor guy but not the rich guy. who will u choose to be with in the end?" i said to reply her after the show, i nv make my stand, neither did anyone of us. haha.. guess is really hard to choose when it come to reality. in real life, how many Jack and Rose (tat is if u rem Titanic's story line) can we have???

once in a lifetime u met someone u really really love and go ahead to love him or her without any regrets. even when u need to give up all tat u have to love him or her, u oso tink is worth it and u will go ahead, overcome all obstacles, so tat u can be with him or her. u ask nutting for in return. all u wanna is to love him or her with all the might and will u have. u dun care if everything is worth it. all u ask for is to be able to be with him or her at tat point in time. haha... tat is wat me and my housemates discussed after the show. i guess it is a wish, emotional one, of most gals. yes, u may fall for someone very fast and unexpectedly. but u nv noe tat kind of love is something tat is going to last u for life and will be the greatest impact for u ever. is something u nv expect and u will be stunned by how much it can affect and change ur views and attitude. hmm.. have u encounter such cases before? have u encounter a kind of love feeling tat is so sudden, so unexpectedly tat u r unable to react in time and still find it hard to accept after some time. and the after effect had been a great impact for u all these while.. have u? heehee... :)

okok... shall end here and try to get some rest now liao... need to rest and start diligently tomolo on my revision for my next paper of Service Management! paper i have least confidence in ah.. haiz...

1st exam tomolo.. am i ready? really ready??

finally... is 1st paper tomolo... at 11.15am, i will have my 1st exam of tis semester for hotel management operations. at tis moment, i shld be mugging. oh well, i juz finished memorising the key points. decide to give a break and do another round at nite before i head for the bed and sleep till morning 8am tomolo!

juz now i calculated how much i need for my GPA to be so tat i can pull up my overall GPA. oh gosh~!!! i actually need to score all 6 for all my 3 subjects so tat my average GPA can be pulled up. haiz... how to ah? service management alone can kill me. juz pray hard i dun get below 5 ah. the other 2.. hope to get 6 but is really not as easy as i wanna it be! i tried to hope and expect more for last sem. end up i had great great disappointment. so tis sem i keep telling myself dun have expectation liao. go and take exam as it is. so tat end up i dun get so upset abt myself and get angry with myself again.

seriously, i had nv been so diligent in my studies before. back in spore, my revision r always last min. however when i come here, i nv dare do last min work. not even for assignments or anything. i had been so guai and diligent in doing my work and revision. but i juz cannot seems to score in any way i wanna it be. i put in so much effort and restricting myself as i noe i am not as smart as many of my frens here and i need to put in extra effort in watever i do. i noe wat ability i have, i noe how far i can go. so if i dun put in tat extra effort, i really can say GOODBYE to my degree cos i definitely will not be able to graduate. now wat disappoint me is tat how come at times when i tink i had put in effort, my effort r not paid off. i juz cannot seems to get wat i wanna. i really feel very upset. issit i am not doing enough? someone told me tat i am diligent but i lack of the focus. somehow i really agree. i really lack tat focus. FOCUS! FOCUS! i need to stay focus! diligent is not enough.. if i am not focus, i cannot be productive. so no matter how long i study, dun get it means dun get it. issit too late to realise all these? tomolo is 1st paper. i really cannot afford to lose tis time. i lose once... if i lose another round, i will really break down. gosh~~!!! i noe i need to help myself.. some way, somehow, i will find a way out..

while waiting for dinner..

hmm.. while waiting for dinner to be served (today is my new temporary housemate, Peiyi's turn to cook), i decided to blog. oso dunno wat to blog abt.. mind not functioning properly anymore. from morning 9am study until 5pm. in between had a short 30mins power nap to refresh a bit. i am very very tired!!! i need my proper sleep! when i can have tat? haiz..

while everyone in Spore is having holidays, i am having examz here.. :( act really sad ah.. tat time when they have examz, i am struggling too.. with assignments, tons of assignments.. haiz.. but cannot complain much lah. tis is wat a student life is suppose to be.. study and study.. only during holidays can relax a bit..

then here in Aussie, i really admire those frens of mine who can enjoy while studying. i can never adapt to their way of studying, cos i will feel damn guilty. i really envy their way of studying cos i oso wanna watch TV, i oso wanna sleep until shuang then wake up and study.. but i juz cannot do wat they r doing. somehow if i watch a bit of TV, i feel damn guilty, if i sleep a bit longer, i feel tat i dun have enough time to study. like tis few days, i feel tat i sleep too much. anyway, the paper is on tis Sat, i juz pray hard hard tat i will go thru it well and smooth. next paper's revision muz be more strict liao.. cannot relax anymore. too slack will yield guilt and regrets. i dun wan regrets! i dun wan to feel guilty after seeing the results!!! can someone pls tell me how shld i restrict myself from falling asleep? how to restrict myself from getting distracted? internet is no longer power enough to distract me.. now problem is my bed ah.. my beloved bed.. haiz.. anyway, 3 more days to 1st paper! i need blessing, i need good luck ah!!! i muz jia you for tis paper! mus score cos my grp assignment for tis module was very well done, so how can disappoint myself and waste the chance to score ah! Weishan, JIA YOU!!! JIA YOU!!!

oh.. juz now my housemates asked me how come sporeans like to blog so much.. writing little things tat happen on blog.. so many tings to write mah? and is juz like an online diary lor.. well, blog is really like a online diary ah.. rem initially i din wanna write blog cos feel quite weird to write tings online too esp after i noe tat pple can act search for ur blog online lor.. but then after i started to write, i feel quite okay with it. at least for me now, frens in spore r updated abt my info here.. haha.. *really thanks to Hui for such good recommendation of starting a blog.. well, she is the one who asked me to try start a blog before i came here last sem.. Hui, Thank u!* will continue write blog so tat pple can know i am doing here ah.. haha.. i noe u all miss me in spore lah, reading my blog will make u all "see" me everyday.. but muz continue to miss me ah!!! tis June hols i am NOT going back spore lor.. which means the next possible holidays when i can go back will be end of year, summer holidays.. if i really going back, then i will see u all in 1 year's time. if i dun see u all then, then it will be another 1 and a half year's time when i graduate next June ah.. i miss Spore so so much.. i miss everyone in spore so so much.. i wanna to go home so so much!!! haiz.. endure! endure.. 1 year only mah.. i muz tahan!!! haha...

Information

Unhappiness in relationships, according to Dr. Gary Chapman, is often due to the fact that we speak different love languages. Sometimes we don't understand our partner's requirements, or even our own. We all have a "love tank" that needs to be filled in order for us to express love to others, but there are different means by which our tank can be filled, and there are different ways that we can express love to others.

Kids r simply wonderful & they nv fail to brighten my day...

*yawnz* *yawnz* tis is wat my reaction was early tis morning @ 6am when i have to wake up so early to catch the 7.30am Citycat ferry to city and then change bus so tat i can reach Mater Hill Hospital by 8.30am. yep! is my volunteer work! 1st day of volunteer session... rather excited and i was not late! so proud of myself ah... from my house here to the hospital is abt half hour away. however due to the timing of ferry and bus, i need to wake up on time... haiz... if not, i will be late when i miss one.

anyway, there i am... on my way to the hospital... feeling sleepy and very very cold. (winter is coming!!! weather changing to damn damn cold sia...) finally reached the hospital... starting my shift @ 8.30am. as tis is my 1st session, i had to follow my supervisor to get my ID pass. is an instant photo taking, so ugly ah!!! i cannot even open my eyes, how to take photo ah!!! haiz... end up my ID pass really very er xin.. u see below lah... arrgghh!!!

after taking my ID pass, i went to the children's specialist clinics to start my work. there r alot of children waiting to see doctors. so there i am with my trolley of toys, colouring, drawing papers and books. approaching every kid tat i see and asked them "would u like to have anything to play with?" seeing their smile make me feel so so warmth... i simply love kids... and bringing happiness to them is the happiest thing i can ever do. one by one, i tried to keep them occupied with something to do, from playing games and toys to drawing and colouring to reading a book. then to my biggest surprise, 3 very very heart warming things happened. 1stly, a little boy came running to me to return the toy car he borrowed. then before he left, he actually came up to me and gave me a warm hug and said "thank u". his action was very very sudden and i din had chance to react in time. i really feel very warm in my heart and really feel very pleasant after tis sweet hug. 2ndly, a little boy came running to me to get the toys from me to play. after i lent him some toy cars, he ran away. then he realise he din thank me, so he came running back to me specially to say "thank u!". his tone is really really very cute and lovely. with tat smile on his face, is simply a perfect thank u i can ever get. 3rdly is tat there is tis little boy who came to return the toys to me and when i said "thank u", he replied me "is my pleasure". and thru out my stay there, he always gave me the sunshine and charming smile whenever he sees me. i can guarantee tat he will be a Mr Gentleman when he grow up next time, well-mannered and charming. handsome little prince charming... haha... *seems tat i attracted many little boys ah...haha...* well, of cos there r other kids, both girls and boys who r very well-mannered and appreciative. they wun make noise when we need to take the toys away, neither do they take tings for granted. which i really really think that they r very well-mannered. it really make me feel great doing my volunteer work ah... haha...

anyway, i look forward to next week for my volunteer work as is a form of stress reliever for me too. though i need to scarifice my sleep, i still tink is worthy. seeing those innocent smile and listening to their lovely voice juz brighten my day and make everything seems less stressful. at the same time, it reminds me very much abt my cousins... haiz... i miss them so so much!!!

took some photos after my volunteer work... show u all ah...

tat is the blue vest which i need to put on whenever i am doing my work.. how do i look?



me outside Mater Hill Children's Hospital...


tat is my super ugly ID pass... gosh~~!!!

tat is my blue card.. w/o tis blue card, i cannot work with children here.. tis is a ruling of Aussie.. heehee...

宽恕是人生的最美的艺术... to err is human... but to forgive is divine...

hmm.. i juz finished watching the TVB series of "Ah Wang Xin Zhuan". is a story of a guy who is rather slow in his tinking and behaves like a little kid when he is already 30yrs old liao. however, he has such pure heart, such innocent thinking tat to him, he juz wanna pple around him be happy and he will be happy. he ask for nutting in return when he is good to pple. he has no grudges against anyone. his wishes r as simple as when he sees tat pple around him r blessed with happiness, he will be happy. his life is simple as he is easily contented. his life is happy as he noes how to be appreciative..

i am touched by tis story as i really feel tat when one is easily contented and always appreciative towards life, one will be a happy person and always feels good. when one learn to forgive and forget any unhappiness and unpleasant incidents, relationship between pple will be much easier and happier.

tis is really the kind of lifestyle i hope i can have. i wanna be a happy girl who leads a simple life without much requirements. as in i wanna everyone beside me to be happy becos i can bring happiness to them. i am learning how to be contented with wat i have, how to appreciate my life, how to forgive and forget any unhappiness, nv bear grudges. when u have a more open heart to accept pple's good or bad, u will be happier too!

let bygones be bygones.. many tings happen becos it has to happen. we cannot control them neither can we stop them. since it has already happen, all we can do it to look at it from an open view and not ponder over any unhappy consequences. instead, we shld tink of ways to make it better and learn any valuable lesson from the failure.

anyway, i guess there r many pple around me who need to learn to forgive and forget juz as wat i am learning now. is a tough task to learn as not everyone can be tat generous to forgive and forget... no matter wat, i certainly hope i can be better in tis area every day ah!!!!

GOSH!!! the fire detector went off!!!

the fire detector in my house is working!!! haha... well, today the fire detector went off with a sharp alarm, rather scary and damn loud sia! my housemate, Huiying was cooking dinner when the smoke from the oven cover almost the whole house and finally the detector went off with a loud loud alarm. hmm... lucky it can switch off. if not, fireman will come ah.. i quickly climb up and use something to off the button. gosh~! rather scary sia... but thank god is juz a false alarm. my house is made of wood lor, if there is fire, we will all be roasted pig! haha...

Most enjoyable party in Australia so far... crazy, fun and full of laughter!!!

woohoo!!! yesterday was a great great day with the most wonderful in Australia so far... haha.. is a BBQ bday party for my housemate, Tess and oso one last gathering before exam. almost 15 of our frens came to our house. of cos my frens will not let go of tis chance to dirty my house lah... haha... juz like wat i got during my 21st bday, a cake bath... we oso gave the bday girl a bath of chilli sauce, egg, flour, cake, toothpaste and water. haha... until she is super dirty, smelly and drenched ah! but i noe she enjoy it ah... haha...

we started at abt 6pm then they started to sabo Tess at abt 7plus.. before we could surprise her with the cake.. and the poor cake had been utilised as one of the weapon to attack Tess. haha.. well, we told Tess tat there will be no cake cos we have no time to buy. i noe she is very disappointed, so there we r, bringing out the cake to surprise her. heehee...

then after cutting the cake, drinking session started. wow... we drank so so much tat there r 5 drunk pple! omg!!! vomitting one after another.. act we din drink tat much... is juz tat we anyhow mix the drink so end up everyone gotten drunk very fast. juz imagine mixing pure volka with wine and beer??? then we played games, 1st is number game, 2nd is the game something like 7-up but we used the number "3". is really really fun game but at tat hour when everyone is half drunk, who can tink properly leh? so end up everyone gotten punished and keep drinking the alcohol drink mixed by my fren, Wee Hong.

so slowly, one by one got drunk. Tess, Tash & Baowei r the only 3 gals who r drunk. Tess keep crawling out of her room when we put her there to rest cos we dun have enough pple to take care of the rest, then Tash keep saying " let's go and buy more wine! not enough... still early... shop not close ah!" and Baowei keep laughing from she is drunk till she finally tire out and slept at Huiying's bed. as for the guys, Chin Yew and Wee Hong r the 2 drunk ones. Chin Yew was okay after a while and after drinking some hot drinks. However, the ultimate drunk one is Wee Hong, star of the nite when he is not the bday boy lor... haha... he is so drunk until we cannot move him up the room. end up, my 2 guy frens, Ting Hui and Isaac got to drag him upstairs to my room. then he wanna vomit, but he is too weak to go to the toilet so we can only bring plastic bag for him to vomit. then as he vomit, he keep saying alot of funny tings like "我是偶像派！", "mummy, i should study instead of drinking"... it took abt 4 of us to keep him calm and finally get him to sleep after vomiting for abt 1 hr, using up my full basket of plastic bags. haha... and he still left trace in my room by vomiting a bit at my carpet... aiyo!!! so end up he slept in my room on the floor. i had to be living room master for the nite. haiz... poor me... :( but nvm lah, seeing him like tis, i oso kelian him ah... but i tink he had fun.. lots of fun until now.. cos he will be the main topic for fun and laughter for the rest of the sem with all his funny words and actions during when he is drunk. haha...

anyway, yesterday was really great! a good and fun time to relax before all of us strive hard for exam. though is damn tiring for me and huiying as we had to do all the cleaning up after they left. until abt 4am then we went to sleep. is really tiring ah.. even till now my house still have stain of eggs and smell of cake and eggs... but nvm lah, once in a while for fun and laughter... heehee... oh well, they planning for a 2nd round of drinking session after exam on 24jun, my last day of paper. gosh~! my house again ah... haha... pray hard tat Wee Hong dun get so drunk again... and kick me out of my room again! heehee... however for fun and laughter, i tink nvm lah... heehee...

juz to share some "normal" photos we took cos there r so many candid photos taken yesterday, over 300plus photos... dun wanna make anyone embarrassed, so i shall post some normal ones, if anyone wanna see the cool and nice candid photos, ask from me ba... heehee... when i have time, i will post them in my yahoo photo album. heehee...

my 1st day of Volunteer work at Mater Hill Children Hospital...

today i started on a very meaningful job! yeahz!!! felt really satisfied...esp mentally.

yes! i am doing volunteery work again! heehee... i signed up for a volunteery work in a local Aussie hospital. i am a Patient Buddy, which means i will play with the kids. my area of work is at the Specialist Clinic where kids go and see the doctor. My job is to go around with my trolley of toys and games to entertain the kids. simple and easy job but full of fun and laughter... the kids r simply lovely and adorable. they r so well educated by their parents that all of them r so well mannered. they will return the toys to me when they finish with it and will not argue for more or take the toys for granted. when they tok to me, they r juz so so polite... which i feel very much appreciated... good feeling... there is tis little girl, abt 2 to 3 yrs old. she is so so cute. she cling on to my trolley as she wanna play with the play dough. then when she finished with it, she came walking to me with the tray, equipment and play dough kept in box, all nicely packed... she is such a good girl... very cute and pretty girl with a nice smile... such a long while since i looked at such innocent children's smile.

is my 1st day of volunteer, every Wed, from 8.30am to 12.30pm, i will be down at the clinic doing my job. is a 1hr travel from my house... today i overslept, hopefully next week will be on time. anyway, i tink i will like tis job cos is really mentally fulfilling and something tat i really enjoyed! it had been a long long while since i volunteered and work with kids... i love tis feeling... :)

Finally I can have a good rest, no more late nites, no more sleepless nites, no more worrying tat I cannot finish on time, no more forbidding myself to go out becos I need rush assignments and no more going to library to do till late at nite liao… haha!!!! Although all these r juz temporary freedom, I will still treasure and feel good abt it. Haha… I shall enjoy my short short freedom till end of tis week before I start to prepare for my exam which is less than a mth away.

Nvm… wait till after tis week then worry.. come to tink, I look forward to the BBQ party at my house tis weekend ah… haha…

Oh ya! Today is my formal presentation for hotel management operations. Yes! Is formal which means I need to wear suit and court shoes, something which I dun really enjoy doing lor.. but for my presentation, have to lah. In my formal wear, carrying my heavy laptop, I went to sch for class early in the morning at 10am. My presentation was at 3pm so is a whole day event ah… lucky I have my grp mates ah… if not, I will look kinda weird in formal when whole uni pple r so casually dressed… haha… 2nd formal presentation ever since I come to UQ. cos here pple dun really dress up for presentation, not like in spore.. formal wear for presentation is a norm in business studies.. haha.. anyway, so here I was with my formal wear presenting with my grp mates. We had a time limit of 10mins for 4 pple to speak. Can u imagine how fast each of us has speak? & we only practise together tis morning for 3 times. So there we r, into the tutorial room, in front of my tutor and classmates, we presented on our topic!

is 3am!!! & there r loud knocking sound from next door!!! OMG!!!

gosh!!! guess wat happen last nite? at 3am, there r a series of loud bang and knock at some kind of wall or door coming from my neighbour house. somehow is from their side lah... initially is quite soft, then slowly became very loud and get louder! really irritating!!!

then my housemate, huiying called my hp cos she tot i sleep liao. she wanna check it out but she din dare go downstairs and see. act i was juz fell asleep when i was disturbed by tat loud noise ah! i opened my door, then huiying came out and asked me how. so i decided to go downstairs and see wat happen. i wanna open the main door to see wat is going on but huiying said better dun. so i juz said, in tat case, we go back sleep lor. shld be fine after a while. so there we r, returning to our room.

but we din sleep well. huiying had her handphone ready and she already press "000" to call police if really something happen. tess, my the other housemate oso woke up but she din come out of her room. she cannot sleep well, so she watched her series. as for me, i oso cannot sleep well after tat. i still heard some noise then i keep tinking there r some noise downstairs. i became rather paranoid. until all the way till abt 6am then i sleep. i was suppose to wake up at 7am to go to uni with Tess, end up i din wake up ah...

i oso dunno wat cause the noise. i asked my neighbours from another side, they said they din hear anything... so i oso puzzled ah. dunno wat act cause the noise. pple tell me maybe is some one got locked out of the house so they trying to get his/her housemates' attention to open the door. well, watever it is, i juz hope tonight will be a peaceful nite!!! i need some good sleep ah!!! tomolo i still need go play bball lor... lookin at the time now.. is already 1am... *fingers cross... no more disturbance tonight!*
