LIFE SO FAR.

It's been pretty monotonous. Weekdays have been wake up, eat, school, go home, eat, school (until the last lesson), home, eat, study, sleep. Weekends? Wake up LATE, get prepared, out (for church, maybe to usher maybe not, or out to the city), home, eat, study. I don't even go out at all on Sundays.

Yep, you've guessed it right, I've stopped jogging. Ok, not stop STOP but pause. I need the right shoes. And it's too expensive to get them here. Tootface says he'll bring me to Queensway to get one. Wherever that is lol.

Assignments after assignments have been making my life go bonkers. There's not been a single week without tests or assignments. Ok maybe last week but it was small tinsy break for me to get prepared for this week's physics test and two assignments. I've totally lost count of how many assignments I've done since school started. Let's not include test k? 'Cos the number might just reach infinity.

Just kiddin'.

Haven't been eating properly either ever since I paused my jogging (a week already). I haven't had a proper meal in..I don't know. Since Monday? Ya. Been snacking more than eating properly.

Mummy's been out. Don't have the money to buy a proper meal. I mean, I do have the money but it'll be money for the next SEMESTER. I've already eaten into 3 months worth of pocket money.

That pretty much explains why I haven't been joining my church people for dinner after services these days. Sigh of wells. Money. Never fails to bring problem to people.

BUT! If you're a kind soul maybe you can treat me to coffee and maybe a slice of cake one day. I'm more than happy with that ^^. Not a need for any full course dinner. Really! =)

QUICK UPDATE.

Here's a quick update before I scoot (not literally) off to study. I hope. Heh.

A baptism service was held over at the curtin service two sundays back. A good friend of mine got baptised! Along with 4 other fellow uwa zone mates.
There's the good friend!

Group photo please! Smile!

Janice =).

Kevin Poh =).

The good friend Wei Xian! He went to hug Bijia to get her wet hah! Job well done, good friend! =)

You can also see Pastor Patrick immitating Bijia in the first picture. Hah!

Winsy =). Mummy thinks she's pretty! =D

GOOO GARRY GO! Yep, he's my cell leader. *covers face* Haha just kiddin'. =)

Bijia soaking wet after Garry pushed her into the pull. Congratulations on your second baptism, Lim Bijia! =D

Good friend and his mum =).

Note the boys and a man. You know who. Haha.

Three cheers to UWA zone!

Had Nando's after the service in Victoria Park. Mummy and I dined with Max and Wei Jun.

Max said this is the reason why he loves Perth weather. WHAT?!

Mummy and I both have red bags =)).

The red boots. Hah. Absolutely love it. Worth the money. It was A$79.95 before the 25% discount. Cheap!

When I thought I had only one assignment left to deal with, I went to bake!
The moment I baked, I received another assignment and a test. How wonderful.

Oh I sent the second picture to tootface because I wanted to "share" the cake with him and he said he melted with the fudge. LOL.

Cell last Friday was pot bless.

Master at work.

First picture, chips and nuggets missing, My cheese wrapped in bacon was covered with foil. Secon picture, the drumlets, ribs and Nian Chee's food were missing. LOL.

I loved everything except probably the potato chips and my own cheese wrapped in bacon (it was too salty). Oh wells.

And just in case you're wondering, no, I'm still not back to normal.

I

TRIED.

LOVES.

Mummy (pointing at my Mrs. Fields cookies): "This one nice ar?"

Me (opening up the box, taking out two): "Yar. But got two leh. Got white chocolate macadamia one and milk chocolate one."

Mummy: "Which one nicer?"

Me: "Depends on what you like lor. This one got white chocolate chips with macadamia nuts. This one is just plain milk chocolate chips cookies lor." (I know I'm just stating the obvious lol)

Mummy looked at me for a few seconds and took the white chocolate macadamia one. LOL I thought she looked like a kid when she did that.

I super duper love Mummy x).

OVERDUE.

Here are some photos that are looong overdue. Heh.

As said before, Mummy and I went Ciao Italia with Wei Xian and some of his family members two Thursdays back.
The very scenic walk to Ciao Italia. Loved the walk.

All of us shared two loafs of garlic bread, a pizza and chilli mussels. Among ourselves, Wei Xian's bro and sis-in-law shared a bowl of soup and ravioli. Mummy and I shared tortellini al funghi. For dessert, Wei Xian and his family shared two plates of tiramisu. Mummy and I shared a hazelnut chocolate gelato.

The very crazy two. =D

We were given noughats. I only took one. Heh. Took the green tea noughat.

Took another scenic walk back to the car after dinner.

The food was more than just heavenly/awesome/terrific/splendid. Service was hell good as well. I WANT TO GO BACK AGAIN!

As most of you would have known, Daddy came down last week. For four days.

On the second day he was here, Daddy, Mummy and I went down Northbridge and city together.

Ate at De Shun Hong Kong BBQ. De Xing was much better. Sigh. What to do? All De Xin(g)s serve better food! =P

Daddy and I have concluded that Gloria Jean's just not Mummy's friend. Everytime she drinks at Gloria Jean's, Singapore and Perth alike, her coffee will ALWAYS be not hot enough. Daddy's was PIPING hot! I, uh, have never tried their hot drinks there.

So much for reaching the bus stop half an hour early eh.

Third day, Daddy, Mummy and I had lunch with Wei Xian. Daddy's treat. Well, not exactly. 'Cos Daddy used the A$50 note he picked up on the floor somewhere near Broadway Fair. =_= Sian.

Made tiramisu for Daddy on the second day and was afraid it'll fail 'cos I used a different brand of cream and it felt weird but Daddy lurrrved it. I, personally, was actually quite disappointed with it. And it's actually because I did it slightly wrongly the first time and added a bit more liquor. This second time I did it the right way with the right amount but it didn't taste as nice. Lol. What irony.

Seen any fruits with this pattern of seeds? Haha Daddy said it's his favourite childhood fruit. He didn't bring back any. I suspect it's because he wants Mummy and I to think of him whenever we see them on the dining table. =_= Righto.

On the last day, Daddy, Mummy and I went to Cafe Ela for breakfast 'cos I promised Daddy I'll have coffee with him one day. The very smart Mummy wore new clothes and shoes just for half an hour.

The price-winning breakfast: french toast. You guys MUST try it man. Mummy and I have planned to visit that cafe for breakfast again soon.

Daddy flew when I was still in school. Sigh. Oh wells. One more month!

Random cell photos:
Junie made chocolate tarts while I made fried rice.

Some cell members lol. Junie took back her words about my fried rice. She actually loved it. Very much, in fact.
