Computing class again! Actually I've forgotten what exactly I want to blog about.
On Sunday...Mummy and I went Fremantle. We just went to the market to get fruits and to Coles to get bread and chicken for dinner and then we headed home. Nothing special happened.
Monday, during the THREE HOURS LONG break, Jessica and I went to Curtin University 'cos I had to withdraw some money. Jessica was hungry because she didn't bring her lunch so we started hunting for Curtin's canteens. Curtin is MASSIVE, mind you, so Jessica and I gave up. She called her ex-homestaymate for help. He came to our rescue and brought us around the WHOLE Curtin just because Jessica is finding for the largest canteen(yes, they have more than one canteen). I'm very sure I've lost some weight, honey.
So we walked past this sushi shop and Jessica jetted in =_= her friend and I were like...REALLY speechless. So we found a bench at the Student's Guild and we sat down to...er chat for all three of us and eat for only Jessica. We chatted alot of stupid stuffs. From about Jessica being a "su nu"(elegant lady) to checking our elbow for signs of being a Chinese. Ok whatever it was crap haha.
So when she was done, we chatted for another about one hour before Jessica took a very very long time to buy two bottles of mineral water from the vending machine(yes, they sell bottles in vending machines). Then we scooted off back to Canning for our Maths lesson.
I GOT 12/22 FOR THE BLOODY MATH TEST! I've never gotten such a mark for Maths in my whole life! Maybe only during sec 1 but that's a freakin exception!!!!! Damn the graphic calculator. JUST because I set the settings the wrong way. Fuck it graphic calculators suck big time.
Then we continued our Sets exercises. All the questions were of the same kind so I was really getting very bored of it. Not....kink, get it? Nevermind. After lesson, I went home.
Tuesday(which is yesterday)...I only have one math lessong which ended at like 10.45 and we're allowed to go home. Actually the teacher let us go at 10.15 but Yuki, Penny, Issac and I went hunting for Xing Yun Chao(Lucky Grass). Uh you know...four leave clover? Yep. YUKI FOUND ONE. ARGH. Then we went to the library to use the computer till about 11.10. Then I went home while Yuki and Jessica went for their Human Biology class. Awwwww x). Mummy and I went to NorthBridge. We had lunch at a...restaurant. Chinese meal la. Then we, uh, had bubble tea at Famosa again. I had apple milk tea, Mummy had passionfruit milk tea. Then we, uh, went home 'cos Jessica and Yuki didn't manage to skip their second Human Biology lesson. Awwwwwwwwww x).
Yuki is on her way back to Hong Kong now. That GIRL, skipping one whole day. Damn I hate her =_= I got a letter from my fourth aunt(Mummy's sister). She sent me a CNY card. And she's another Auntie asking me to email her. Argh. Why can't they just pass my email around? Wait, fourth aunt's in London. Ok that explains it. Yes, she's the one with the cute little ten year old son who's also living with her in London.
Break's in 14 minutes time(it's 10.14 now). I'm blardy hungry but they have morning tea for us later 'cos it's our last day or Bridging Course(like finally la). Can't wait for Annsley to come to Perht x) Time flies!
p.s. VALENTINE'S DAY IS DRAWING NEAR!!!!!

I WANT TO POST PICTURES!!!!!
[edited]
Ok blog, let's blog. The wind is still blowing. And it's blowing some shit out of I don't know who. Baha okok that was crap. The wind IS blowing and it IS damn strong. Holy moma I've been in Perth for almost three weeks and it's the first time I see the wind so strong. The wind during rainy days weren't even so strong. Alrighty let's cut the crap. I can't upload pictures because this internet speed forbids me to. ARGH.
So...where was I? Oh, yep, the wind is strong. I last blogged on thursday...Ok. Friday. I woke up at like...what? 10? That's the latest I've waken up so far in Perth. So we had..fried rice before we left the hotel. We went to..Harbour Town. It's so darn cool I tell ya. It's one huge circular building. Not air-conditioned but it doesn't matter because the shops have air-conditioners and the summer's dry. So no sweat. The shops are like.."factories". They look like normal shops but in fact these are the shops where you can get the branded stuffs at a cheaper price. Mummy and I both each got a fila top for A$20 each. Mummy got another chaplang brand top for I don't know how much so let's not talk about that. I got a bag for like...A$35. A pair of Converse sneakers for A$40. Not bad huh. The Converse sneakers were made of velvet even. So yep, we got quite alota stuffs.
The problem was..when we got home, we realised that the sales person didn't remove the censor from my sneakers so I can't blardy hell wear them. So TODAY, Mummy and I made a trip down to Harbour Town again today. Got the censor removed and I immediately put it on. It felt good, baby, goooood. Lurrrve it. So we went back to the shop where I got my bag and found out that my bag was out of stock. There WERE the same bags of different colours but they just look so off. Mummy wanted to buy my bag but...bleargh not the same colour. Tough luck, mum!
Then we headed down to ChinaTown. Got some grocery done again at the chinese(actually Singaporean) supermarket. Mummy bought Buddha Jump Over the (stinking) Wall, Abalone, Fish (yummy) Maw, a box of white chocolate(for me) and a small can of apple juice. We had bubble tea at Famosa again. Mumm ordered Grass Jelly Milk Tea and already I knew it would taste weird(cos it sounds too terribly weird). I ordered Honey Dew Milk Tea. Nice.
Went back to City Centre 'cos I needed to get another bottle of Shiseido Pimple Gel(astonishingly oil-free). Then we went home. FIRST time in this three weeks Mummy and I didn't get anything from WoolWorth on the way back. I miss Annsley. I miss Huan Yuet. I miss Christine. And.
I MISS DADDY.
Ok he can't read it here so no point. Oh btw VALENTINE'S DAY'S COMING!!!!!

What happened to HY suddenly just dashed my eagerness to blog. I just emailed her. Hope she knows what I really meant.
Yep, I'm in computing lesson now. I can leave at anytime actually 'cos I've finished with my revision exercises. BUT, Jessica and Yuki are not ready. -_-. Finished watching "Devil Beside You". WAAAAA Jiang Meng DAMN cute lar!!! Yang Cheng Ling also lar!!! Go home must start listening to Comic Boyz' songs again. MUST.
Alot of pictures at home to upload but I'm getting really lazy at home. Like, say, after dinner, instead of heading straight to the shower, I laze on Mummy's bed instead. Another reason is appparently because I was very much hooked onto the idol series "Devil Beside You".
Went to the City Centre again yesterday. I don't know why but my Espirit flip flops are giving my feet problems already. Started to have blisters and aches everywhere. Mummy and I tried walking to Harbour Town but it was really too far so we gave up halfway and walked back to the City Centre. Then HOHOHO guess who I caught skipping class. JESSICA! ALBERT! AND WHATEVER HIS NAME IS! Jessica was alone so she joined Mummy and I. Albert and whatever his name is didn't see us. I saw him walking out of Myer and when I asked Albert today, he's even forgotten he walked out of Myer. His memory's a tad too perfect. *wink*
Maths was Sets today. Everything was learnt before(for me, that is). One difference was, instead of prime, they use......I don't know. A line on top instead. Anyways. I've got nothing to blog anymore. My coursemates are either working very hard on their exercises(very engrosssed) or surfing other nets after coping my work. -_-. Suddenly reminds me of Qi Yue(yang cheng ling) in "Devil Beside You".
Okok I've got nothing to blog anymore. Haven't been online for about two days. I'd better go online tonight in the hotel. Oh yes, I've enrolled for Foundation Year, finally. Subjects and stuff. Weeee *crash bam* HY's still down. No time for high feelings.

Ok. I'm blogging in computing lesson again. I didn't blog the past few days 'cos I was experiencing extreme headaches. Two straight days. Yes. Two. It only got better yesterday afternoon after I took two aspirins. Should have heed twinny's advice. =\
Friday night was quite terrible so lets not talk about it. Saturday..shits I can't remember. Sunday went shopping. Headache striked due to the heat. Went around with my head hanging in all directions. Thought the headache would be gone after a night's sleep. Monday morning wake up. HEADACHE. T_T How in the world would I survive the remaining month of summer...
Ok lesson's starting. Tata~

playtime!
Ok I'm blogging in computing class again. I know I haven't been blogging for days so I'm really really sorry. Oh, no pictures for this post too ^^.
English was...I don't know. We played scrabble 'cos we had nothing to do. At the end of the lesson I realised I was the only one who haven't go back the Response to "Strictly Ballroom" and my newspaper article. I went up to Eve(the teacher) and she said "yours was excellent so I'm keeping it. T_T. I WANT IT BACK. I so desperately wanna see my marks and Eve's comments! Neh-vuh-mind.
The start of computing lesson was fun. Because we're using Lab 5 again, Jessica brought along deodarant 'cos the comp lab doesn't smell good. I took her deodarant and starting spraying at Yuki. I saw Dominic and started spraying at him too. He took out his and he was like chasing me around the lab. I don't know if Richard(the teacher) was blind or what 'cos he didn't stop us =D kiddin' kiddin'. When we settled down, I told Jason that Dominic bullied me. Dominic chocked on that. xD
Alrighty I got to go for now. Lesson's starting(it was lunch break). Buh Bye!

Blogging in School
I'm blogging in computing class! In other words, no pictures. Bah I dunno what to blog either. I only know I slapped Dominic's right shoulder yesterday 'cos he disturbed me the way Ricky did in PastaMania. Damn why didn't he duck...It could have been more fun. =D
Sarah has a boyfriend...Ok I shall shutup about that now. That's her private personal problems ^^". Argh Jessica's so darn cute, Cecilia's so darn sexy(and so is Jean)...and I'm so darn lazy on weightlosing. =_= Back to starving I guess. Oooh look at that...tummy I have! T_T
School has never been more fun in my whole life. No need for uniform, no need to worry about getting caught with make up on, no need to worry about your hair colour being too obvious, just have to worry about your studies. Phew. And the people here are so so much more friendly compared to SOME people in Singapore. *shrug* I'm getting used to Perth.
I'm going off now. I don't know what to blog anymore. *yawn* WHY ARE THE FLIES IN THE COMPUTER LAB?!?!?!?!?!

SHOPPING AGAIN!!!!! ARGH This wireless internet thing is driving me up the blardy wall. Can't the hotel just get the wireless internet done properly?! PFF! Nevermind. I shall just blog while the bloody internet connection sets itself up. I have the right mind to go down to the reception centre and throw something at the receptionists or throw something at their super expensive internet service. ARGH.
So we, as in Mummy and I, went to the city again to do more shopping. The shops were...mostly closed 'cos they open a tinsy bit later during the weekends so Mummy and I decided to head down to ChinaTown again. Drank bubbletea again haha Mummy had lavender milk tea and hers was so darn good. Shall drink that the next time I go there again. Went to the same chinese supermarket to get some snacks and...nothing much.
When we went back to the city, the shops were open. We went to Myer first because I wanted to get shoes. Got myself a pair of Espirit flipflop for A$39.95. Couldn't find any suitable bag. We got one whole roasted chiken at WoolWorth for dinner. We did some more grocery shopping. For the past seven days, we've spent A$500++!!!!! *drops dead*
Pictures...maybe tonight maybe tomorrow. I'll see =D

shopping shopping shopping!
Yay! It's finally the weekends. I can't possible blog every single thing that happened since wednesday 'cos it'll be too much for me to blog.
Let me recall some new friends...Ok not really new friends but the people whose names I've finally remembered. Sarah, Yuki, Jessica(BeiJing), Yessica(indo) and Isaac(couple), Jason and Jodi(couple), Dominic(macau), Peony, Sharon, Albert(not the indo one but the hongkong one), Andrew(indo), Jimmy, Eric, Jean(Korea)...That's about it. Those that I didn't name where they're from are all from Hong Kong. Dominic's like WeiDa. Difference? Less irritating, cuter, chubbier(without lose fats) and funnier. Nevermind if you don't know who WeiDa is 'cos it's better for you to not know who he is.
School has been fun. I've caught up a LITTLE for accountings. Computings...just as fun although I had to help Jessica with hers. Economics...EASIER THAN ACCOUNTINGS. But Mummy said accountings is compulsory for business. T_T. Haven't had any math lessons but I hope it'll be easier than Singapore's maths so I can sleep. xD Kiddin' kiddin' I ain't gonna sleep. Don't fly lectures at me, thankyou. English...well...I'm the only one in class who've finished their first and second draft. =_=
Went to Perth's chinatown with Sarah and Mummy yesterday. I was relieved when I saw Sarah and Mummy chat in Canto. I couldn't understand most of it but at least both of them had something to chat about. Mummy said Sarah's very helpful. Sarah said Mummy's very friendly. Wahahaha. Mummy got some grocery shoppings done in ChinaTown. We had tim sum for lunch and I was blardy bloated only after I ate abit. Mainly because I didn't drink tea. We drank Bubble Tea at Famosa. Their sofa was darn comfy and their tv programmes were darn farnie. =_= Sarah now calls me Xiao Bai Zhu(small white pig). 'cos I'm white and young. =oo="
Mummy and I went to Fremantle today. Got myself two tops; a tube and a shirt, but I didn't manage to get any mini skirts or pants cos Mummy thought they were too short. Typical Singaporean Mums. Did more grocery shoppings at Coles and got some fruits in Fremantle market. We bought back the Japanese food in the market for dinner too. Before dinner I had instant pasta. It was daaarn cheesy. I kept going "mmm" and "aaah" and Mummy went "you very noisy ar!". What happened was...I couldn't finish my dinner. ^^"
Gonna go shopping again tomorrow to get some shorts and skirts. The summer is so terribly hot. Can't afford to wear jeans anymore. Gonna get some shoes and bag too. Wee!

Day One, 2nd January 2006
So I woke up at around 5.40 this morning. Showered and stuff. The luggage were TERRIBLY heavy. It took three of us, Daddy, Mummy and I, to get each luggage up into the car. My biggest and third Aunts were there to send me off. Had breakfast at Kopitiam before we departed. It was drama-mania at the departure hall as usual. Checked in and boarded the plane smoothly.
The flight was supposed to be 5 hours long but it only lasted for about 4 hours and 20 minutes or so. I slept for about one hour upon departure. The entertainment system was DOWN. Damn! I so wanted to watch Deuce Bigalow and some other comedy movies! But it wasn’t too bad after all ‘cos I managed to read a little off the biography of some Great British Ballerina. Damn, I envy her.Australians sat beside me. They were friendly, really. We didn’t really chat but we greeted each other and smiled and joked and so on. So unlike Singaporeans. Singaporeans wouldn’t even LOOK at you if they were sitting beside you! Okok, I AM a Singaporean but…I don’t wanna be deemed as unfriendly. I had pasta for lunch on the plane with white wine. Mummy poured my white wine into the tea cup can! She said “No chance lar, later you get caught.” Immediately I thought to myself: What if I can’t get rid of my Singlish? I hope I can… One of the air stewards even greeted us “Happy New Year” in Chinese(Xin Nian Kuai Le)
We landed safely and retrieved our luggage. Everything was so familiar. The same walk way, same escalator, same belts, same DOG even. Memories flooded my mind instantly. When we got out, we were fetched from the airport to Mummy’s rented apartment/hotel by some…I don’t know what you call them but they drive student to and from the airport and they are also taking care of four overseas students. Mummy’s apartment/hotel is called GoodEarth Hotel. The room’s a tad too tiny but was satisfactory because they had sofas, coffee table, kitchen and so on. Just a little bit bigger than the usual hotel rooms.
It took Mummy and I a looong time to unpack our stuffs and settle them down at the right places. When we were finally done, we went down to the Swan River for a stroll. Oh, wait, we reserved seats at the hotel’s restaurant for dinner too. Swan River was lovely. The weather was…not cold enough for you to put a jacket on but not warm at all. Just cooling and dry. I doubt I’d sweat a lot if I were to jog along the river(IF I have the motivation).
We ordered a plate of pasta for dinner. It was chicken breast meat with traditional tomato sauce and parmesan cheese. What surprised me was the way they prepared the chicken breast meat. It didn’t feel dry at all! Splendid. Dessert was ice cream with a thin layer of chocolate coating with an additional strawberry. It was terribly terribly sweet. Terrible sweet in a way that all your senses just indulge in the taste/sight/texture/smell of it. Sorry, no sound. We bought a packet of chocolate milk and heated it up for supper in the room too.
Day one just ended like that. We had a good rest with Garfield and Teddy but I got waken up by the terrible sound of alarm at 6am sharp. *pulls long face*
Day Two, 3rd January 2006After showering, Mummy and I headed down to the hotel’s restaurant for breakfast. Mummy only signed for the continental buffet where we were not allowed to touch the cook food but the bread/yoghurt/juices and so on only. I only had a slice of bread with butter and honey spread on it.After breakfast, the guy that picked me up from the airport was already waiting for us in the lobby. I swear he was super early. Along the way, he showed me the bus stops, telling me which buses to take. The ride was about 15-20 minutes long before we reached Canning College.Canning College is H-U-G-E. We went into the International Students’ Office (ISO) first to get some application forms filled. I was seriously tired so I dosed off at some moments. Tony de Gruchy thought I looked terribly tired and asked if I wanted to skip a day’s lesson. Thank God I didn’t, I tell ya, I would have been more lost in Accounting lesson.I missed my first round of Computing lessons due to the filling up of forms so some lady brought us to the bank in Curtin University ‘cos she thought the bank might be open and that we could open an account today. Unfortunately, the bank was closed. It was a long way from Canning College to the bank in Curtin University but it was still a reasonable walking distance for diet-ers like me.I joined the second round of Computing class at 11am. I was introduced to all my Bridging Course mates but I only remembered some; Sharon, Yuki (I THINK that’s the way you spell her name) and Sarah. Since most of them are from Hong Kong and have Christian names, I introduced myself as Rynetta. Mummy had no problems pronouncing my name! Yay!Computing…wasn’t boring nor fun. Actually quite fun. We were thought how to use Microsoft Words fully and when we finished our so-called “exercises”, we could surf the net. Friendster was not allowed to be accessed and so was wholivesnearyou after a while. I bet the technician didn’t expect me to surf wholivesnearyou. He blocked my tagboard and rating section too. Sadness. Can’t blame him/her, though, it’s for the safety of the school’s computers.Had half an hour of lunch break. Mummy bought me a sandwich from SubWay. I REALLY don’t know why Mummy added in cucumber. There were cabbage, chicken, cucumber and cheese. Sweet. She got me a bottle of Apple Juice too. I so love Mummy. I don’t know what’s gonna happen to me after I start staying in homestay. >_<Accounting lesson started and I couldn’t understand ANYTHING. Apparently, the Bridging Course had been on for about 10 weeks or so, so I missed out on a lot (although they said they’re starting all over again today). I couldn’t understand what the lecturer was talking about so after the lesson, I asked the lecturer if I could bring the textbook home till the next lesson (on Friday) so that I can revise. He agreed, thank God. For your extra information, the textbooks are lent to students because they are too expensive too be bought. Of course, we have to return them at the end of the lesson unless there’re exceptions (like me).When school ended, Mummy and I made our way to the humongous bus stop and took a bus down to the hotel ‘cos she did a little grocery shopping while I was having lessons. After placing our things down, we took a bus down to the city. It was only a few stops away. Convenient. Also, for free. =DWe did a more thorough grocery shopping at WoolWorths. Got all our stuffs and took another bus back to the hotel again.After unpacking all the groceries, Mummy cooked rice. When the rice was cooked, Mummy added in the marinated chicken she got earlier at WoolWorths. It smelled so darn good and I was so darn hungry. When it was ready, I gobbled the whole dinner down in just minutes. Haven’t had rice for three full days. I’m damn pathetic. =\I’ve just settled down again and am reading the Accounting text. REALLY REALLY tough. I think the bridging course will let me decide on what course I’ll wanna take in UWA next year. If Economy’s harder, I’d taking Accounting. If Accounting’s harder, I’d take Economy. If both are as hard, I’d take Marketing. Deal!No pictures yet because I’m still quite busy at the moment, trying to familiarize with the school compound and trying to get the grocery shopping done in the city. I love Perth. I do.

So I woke up at around 5.40 this morning. Showered and stuff. The luggage were TERRIBLY heavy. It took three of us, Daddy, Mummy and I, to get each luggage up into the car. My biggest and third Aunts were there to send me off. Had breakfast at Kopitiam before we departed. It was drama-mania at the departure hall as usual. Checked in and boarded the plane smoothly.
The flight was supposed to be 5 hours long but it only lasted for about 4 hours and 20 minutes or so. I slept for about one hour upon departure. The entertainment system was DOWN. Damn! I so wanted to watch Deuce Bigalow and some other comedy movies! But it wasn’t too bad after all ‘cos I managed to read a little off the biography of some Great British Ballerina. Damn, I envy her.Australians sat beside me. They were friendly, really. We didn’t really chat but we greeted each other and smiled and joked and so on. So unlike Singaporeans. Singaporeans wouldn’t even LOOK at you if they were sitting beside you! Okok, I AM a Singaporean but…I don’t wanna be deemed as unfriendly. I had pasta for lunch on the plane with white wine. Mummy poured my white wine into the tea cup can! She said “No chance lar, later you get caught.” Immediately I thought to myself: What if I can’t get rid of my Singlish? I hope I can… One of the air stewards even greeted us “Happy New Year” in Chinese(Xin Nian Kuai Le)
We landed safely and retrieved our luggage. Everything was so familiar. The same walk way, same escalator, same belts, same DOG even. Memories flooded my mind instantly. When we got out, we were fetched from the airport to Mummy’s rented apartment/hotel by some…I don’t know what you call them but they drive student to and from the airport and they are also taking care of four overseas students. Mummy’s apartment/hotel is called GoodEarth Hotel. The room’s a tad too tiny but was satisfactory because they had sofas, coffee table, kitchen and so on. Just a little bit bigger than the usual hotel rooms.
It took Mummy and I a looong time to unpack our stuffs and settle them down at the right places. When we were finally done, we went down to the Swan River for a stroll. Oh, wait, we reserved seats at the hotel’s restaurant for dinner too. Swan River was lovely. The weather was…not cold enough for you to put a jacket on but not warm at all. Just cooling and dry. I doubt I’d sweat a lot if I were to jog along the river(IF I have the motivation).
We ordered a plate of pasta for dinner. It was chicken breast meat with traditional tomato sauce and parmesan cheese. What surprised me was the way they prepared the chicken breast meat. It didn’t feel dry at all! Splendid. Dessert was ice cream with a thin layer of chocolate coating with an additional strawberry. It was terribly terribly sweet. Terrible sweet in a way that all your senses just indulge in the taste/sight/texture/smell of it. Sorry, no sound. We bought a packet of chocolate milk and heated it up for supper in the room too.
Day one just ended like that. We had a good rest with Garfield and Teddy but I got waken up by the terrible sound of alarm at 6am sharp. *pulls long face*
Day Two, 3rd January 2006After showering, Mummy and I headed down to the hotel’s restaurant for breakfast. Mummy only signed for the continental buffet where we were not allowed to touch the cook food but the bread/yoghurt/juices and so on only. I only had a slice of bread with butter and honey spread on it.After breakfast, the guy that picked me up from the airport was already waiting for us in the lobby. I swear he was super early. Along the way, he showed me the bus stops, telling me which buses to take. The ride was about 15-20 minutes long before we reached Canning College.Canning College is H-U-G-E. We went into the International Students’ Office (ISO) first to get some application forms filled. I was seriously tired so I dosed off at some moments. Tony de Gruchy thought I looked terribly tired and asked if I wanted to skip a day’s lesson. Thank God I didn’t, I tell ya, I would have been more lost in Accounting lesson.I missed my first round of Computing lessons due to the filling up of forms so some lady brought us to the bank in Curtin University ‘cos she thought the bank might be open and that we could open an account today. Unfortunately, the bank was closed. It was a long way from Canning College to the bank in Curtin University but it was still a reasonable walking distance for diet-ers like me.I joined the second round of Computing class at 11am. I was introduced to all my Bridging Course mates but I only remembered some; Sharon, Yuki (I THINK that’s the way you spell her name) and Sarah. Since most of them are from Hong Kong and have Christian names, I introduced myself as Rynetta. Mummy had no problems pronouncing my name! Yay!Computing…wasn’t boring nor fun. Actually quite fun. We were thought how to use Microsoft Words fully and when we finished our so-called “exercises”, we could surf the net. Friendster was not allowed to be accessed and so was wholivesnearyou after a while. I bet the technician didn’t expect me to surf wholivesnearyou. He blocked my tagboard and rating section too. Sadness. Can’t blame him/her, though, it’s for the safety of the school’s computers.Had half an hour of lunch break. Mummy bought me a sandwich from SubWay. I REALLY don’t know why Mummy added in cucumber. There were cabbage, chicken, cucumber and cheese. Sweet. She got me a bottle of Apple Juice too. I so love Mummy. I don’t know what’s gonna happen to me after I start staying in homestay. >_<Accounting lesson started and I couldn’t understand ANYTHING. Apparently, the Bridging Course had been on for about 10 weeks or so, so I missed out on a lot (although they said they’re starting all over again today). I couldn’t understand what the lecturer was talking about so after the lesson, I asked the lecturer if I could bring the textbook home till the next lesson (on Friday) so that I can revise. He agreed, thank God. For your extra information, the textbooks are lent to students because they are too expensive too be bought.

Alright, today's picture blogging. Didn't actually expect myself to be able to blog again before I leave. *shrugs* The post will be in between the pictures =)
So I woke up at...7.45 just to have breakfast with my parents at Killiney Kopitiam along Upper East Coast Road. Had Mee Siam. The spiciness was just nice lar just that I couldn't finish it 'cos I don't normally have heavy breakfasts. Was damn blardy full.
The heart keychain my aunts(mummy's sisters) gave me.
Met up with Marcus and Janet today at Parkway's starbucks. Actually I met Marcus at Marine Parade CC's starbucks first at around 2 but it was closed so we made our way to Parkway's starbucks. Somebody was late leh. Other than Marcus and I, who else could it be? Janet! xD
The fishes Mummy and I bought. DAMN big lar! DAMN cute too!
So while Janet was on her way from her friend's house, Marcus and I chatted. I felt really awkward, though, didn't know what to say. Like Marcus asks a question, I answer, and that's it, silence.
Fat fat fat!
So Janet came and I still felt quite awkward. They talked about clubbing, games and so on and I felt so left out. I mean nono I wasn't pissed or upset I was just waiting for the appropriate time to cut in. Then...I started to open up and I started talking more.
Black fishes.
But guess what. It rained. I thought it was some light rain but it got heavier AND heavier. It became so cold that Janet and I put our jackets on. Marcus had no jacket so he could only get a cup of coffee. Poor chap. But that's not good enough. The best thing is, Janet and I kept kicking rain water at him. Wahaha love it love it can we have an encore? xD
Lovely fishes.
Janet and I then invaded his phone. OH OH guess what we saw! We saw this GUY with long golden hair, with make up, wearing a pink racer back and some really mini mini pants. Woo! Sexy, babaye! Very very sexy. Aye, Marcus? =D So, yah, we invaded Marcus's phone. Found some...*AHEM* not-so-decent photos, photos of girls and his narcissistic self.
Ooh I love this picture. Like sharks xD.
During the rain, some people hid under the shelters. When the rain subsided, some went out with umbrellas. He was like "wa lao people hiding you don't share" or "don't fall down" or "why cover like that, still will get wet what" LOL that idiot. So, I threw things at him when he cursed people. Like his cup. He's stupid la, I threw at him, he put back on the table, throw at him, put back, throw at him, put back. Until after a few throws, he kept it under his chair. I threw serviettes at him too. Although...it nearly ended up at someone else =P
It's really difficult to capture all four of them together!
OH! I also took candid photos of Marcus. I was holding Marcus's phone in my right hand and mine in my left so he thought I was transfering pictures when I'm actually taking pictures of him while I was browsing through HIS pictures. AHAHA GOTCHA!
Lovely, lovely.
We continued insinuating each other until Janet's friend came and she had to go. So Marcus and I had nothing left to say so we decided to split. Went up to Pastamani to have my dinner. Goodness once I stepped in, I started to miss the usual Pastamania gang already. No more Ricky, no more cute chef, no more cute malay waiters...DAMN! I miss them so much. Pastamania just felt so different! The Creamy Chicken too. I don't know if it's me or what but the Creamy Chicken tasted better then. =\
One red fish's missing.
After dinner, I went to Sembawang to get BeeGee's Love album. Guess who I bumped into. MIN RU! HENG MIN RU! WA LAO! I slap her shoulder only she say she kena frightened. Wanted to go out with her after she knock off(from Bossini) but she's meeting her CO gang. Wa lao sadness lar. But heck I still managed to bump into her the last time before I leave(tomorrow).
Garfield and Teddy! Both from my Aunties.
I messaged Samantha(yes, fcukling) Happy Birthday and Happy New Year. Quite late lar but still...^^. So I realised she was heading down to parkway so I told her I'll wait for her so we cold meet up one last time before I leave for Aussieland. She came with a friend. When we met up we chatted about my flight, time and destination. Then I left.
Look who's got a candid shot taken!
On the bus, I saw Sonia and...Gosh I can't remember his name. Both of 'em were from Tao Nan. Sweet. Sad thing was, they didn't recognise me. Good 'cos I've change. Bad 'cos I didn't manage to catch up on them.
What in the world is on his mind?!
On the way home, I messaged some peeps and asked if they were free so that I could meet them up one last time. One wasn't at home(he lives near me), one changed his number, Lyndon was going out, Ker Wei's in Seragoon(too far la) and JunYu's in SiMei(abit out of the way too). So I plopped my ass back at home instead.
He wasn't looking into the camera, he was wondering what I was doing.
I'm blardy freezing. The aircon's blowing in my direction and I can't move because the comp's with me!!! My body and legs are warm but not my hands nor feet. Heeeelp...*whimpers*
Cursing people again, aye, Marcus?
Everyone's giving me their last blessings now. Thanks alot, peeps, I appreciate it =)
Laugh more mah..you look so dead in all your pictures.
I've got nothing to blog anymore.
I swear I don't know what's with his hands.
Oops =D
Now I really don't know when will I next blog. I hope it'll be soon =)
