*grumbles*

February 27, 2007 at 7:36 pm (melbourne, photos, university)

I’m in a very bad mood.

I got upgraded from Introductory Chinese to Standard Chinese because apparently I understand Mandarin and Cantonese (eh, I was shocked also okay, but I did answer the interviewer’s questions, so there!) which is all good and stuff, EXCEPT Standard Chinese clashes with Contemporary Idealogies and Movements which I really like, so I don’t think I want to drop it. I don’t know. I DON’T KNOW!!! *cries* I might take Chinese next semester then, and take another subject this semester, but nothing else really interests me except for Art History which I’m too lazy to enquire about because it’s so troublesome to be constantly enrolling and re-enrolling for things, GAH!!!!

On the bright side, I have random photos! :)


I forgot to take photos of my own place, hahahaha.

Maybe more on that later lah, very lazy to upload now.

Classes

February 26, 2007 at 5:15 pm (university)

Classes started today! :) I only had 2 classes today, but I couldn’t go for Chinese class because I didn’t go for the interview, so I need to schedule an interview before I can attend class. Damn sad, hahahaha. This semester I’m taking 5 subjects, next semester I’m taking 3 instead of the usual 4 per semester. I’m forced to do this because I’m taking a language, meh.

This semester I’m taking:

- God, Morality, and Free Will (Philosophy)
- Contemporary Idealogies, and Movements (Political Science)
- From Graffiti to Terrorism (Criminology)
- Introduction to Chinese Language
- Introduction to Spoken Chinese Language

Seriously, the subjects under the Arts degree are all damn interesting. I’m looking forward to my Philosophy class tomorrow, whee!

College Square

February 24, 2007 at 9:33 pm (Ormond, melbourne)

Hello people! :)
I’ve temporarily moved in to College Square @ Swanston until July. I’m staying by myself which is quite expensive, but it’s much cooler than having to share bathrooms and stuff :S The day after I moved in, Ormond contacts me telling me that I have been accepted to stay there. Damn offz right? But I didn’t really like it when I went there though, meh. I prefer staying alone rather than sharing — even if you get a 2BR here, there’s only 1 bathroom and I find it hard to share toilets, hahahaha. Oh well.
CHAI MIN HUEI you better e-mail me (snuffles@gmail.com) for my address so you can send me the copy of The Matrics you promised! :P My landline phone number is +61388887567 for Malaysian calls, and for Aussie folks, it’s 03-88887567. Now you guys have no excuse to call me :P
Okay, at Sean’s place now, more later :) :)

I FINALLY have a moment to sit down and blog :) I’m webcamming with my family now, and I do miss home quite a fair bit, though I really do love life here so very, very, very much! :) I’ve been constantly in and out, and I’m always with people so I never really had a moment of privacy to sit down and just … blog, hahahaha.

I hope everything and everyone’s doing fine in KL :)

Sean “outdid” my present for Valentine’s Day. The idiot boy spoils me lah, hahaha. He got me Suga candy, two bouquets of roses, a pink turtle called Squirtle .. and .. wait for it .. WAIT FOR IT … he got me a gorgeous Gucci handbag as well. It’s the normal Gucci pattern one with pink leather trim and a pretty butterfly charm. I don’t wanna know how much he spent on everything, including dinner a well! I love you, baby.

I have an appointment with my Student Advisor tomorrow, and I still have a few forms to fill up so I guess that’s that for now. Here’s a huge hug for everyone! *hugs*

Hello!

February 17, 2007 at 10:28 am (clubbing, melbourne, outing)

Sorry for the long absence!

Let’s see, Sean made reservations at this restaurant called Blue Fire at Docklands where we ate like pigs. We’re talking oysters, chicken, beef, lamb, calamari, and then some! It was part of their Valentine’s Day set menu, so we were basically forced to eat everything … slowly .. and painfully. I was already full after the salad, to be honest! Walked around for awhile before going back to The Verve to visit Jun Wei since everyone was there. His place is like the club house or something, the point where everyone meets, hahaha.

Went to Lavish last night which was fun even though Sean was high on absinthe (Ezra, are you reading this?!?!) and Bacardi 151. Potent stuff man, that’s like what, 76% alcohol?!?!

OK, going to buy a fan now, later days! :)

Happy Valentine’s Day!

February 14, 2007 at 1:44 pm (melbourne, outing, shopping)

Hey hey hey! :)
I’m currently at Iylia’s place at Concept Blue now, chilling and waiting for Sean to finish his Valentine’s Day shopping, haha. I bought him his present at the airport (KLIA) while Jun Wei hyperventilated and said we were gonna miss our flight. I got him a Burberry phone strap, which is awesome because his phone doesn’t have a thingy to hang straps from *head bang* He managed to find a way to put it on though, so hooray! :D
We went to Crown last night with his friends, and we lost AUD$100 on Blackjack. Apparently our luck isn’t so onz! I kept going from $10 to $20 until I finally lost it all, hahaha. Had dinner at Greco, and watched the flames at Crown every hour :) I managed to settle my bank account, credit card, cheque book and shit all yesterday too, so I’m happy!
We tried watching Heroes last night, but I don’t know, I found it quite boring after the first episode. Maybe it’s because I’ve already seen it, meh. Had lunch with Iylia on Lygon Street as well, before splitting ways. Can I just say that Iylia’s pad is damn freaking nice?! I want to live in Concept Blue too! :( :( His place is so big!
I’m currently living at Franklin Loft until the end of February, and my number in Melbourne is 0402570316. If you’re calling from an international number, then it’s +61402570316 I think. Same thing if you SMS. SMSes are quite expensive here (25 cents for one, I think) so don’t be offened if I don’t reply!
Okay, damn sleepy, wanting to take a nap before Sean and I go out for dinner tonight. Happy Valentine’s Day everyone, miss you all already! :)

Woo-hoo!

Greetings from Melbourne! :D

Let’s see, so far today I’ve walked and walked and walked, basically getting to know the city I’ll be living in for the next few years, hahaha. I can’t pass you guys my phone number yet because the stupid SIM card is taking SO LONG to bloody activate, it’s freaking pissing me off! It was supposed to be done 4 hours ago. Damn annoying, I’m missing the Malaysian instant prepaid activation right now :( :(

Nothing much to say, just letting you know that I’ve arrived safely and am currently having the time of my life :) Not feeling homesick yet because it hasn’t really sunk in, but I’m enjoying this whole independent life without parents thing so far, haha!

Take care, loves! :)

Nothing In This World

February 11, 2007 at 12:11 am (HMC, The Sanctuary, melbourne, outing)

Tonight’s my last night in KL :) I know I sound dramatic, but really, starting tomorrow, I’m going to be living in Melbourne, and only coming back to KL for holidays. Out of 12 months in a year, more than 3/4 of it will be spent in Melbourne. I suppose KL will always be my home, but Melbourne will be my physical home! I feel kinda sad about leaving, but at the same time, I feel really excited, and I definitely cannot wait to see you again after a week, love! :)

I’m going to miss so many things.

1. I’m going to miss my family. All of them! :( I’m going to miss my parents, my sister, my grandparents, my aunties and uncles … every single one of them. I’m also going to miss my darling cats, especially Butterscotch who I can imagine is going to be so confused about where I’ve gone. The cat’s completely attached to me. She’s gonna be so broken :(

2. I’m going to miss the friends I leave behind! All my HMC peeps, and of course, my beloved Zehan, Mrina and Mardiana! :( Melbourne’s not going to be the same without my two psycho Gediks to bitch, gossip, and dance with. I’m so gonna miss all of you so very, very much!

3. I’m so going to miss Malaysian food! Don’t give me that nonsense about how Melbourne has it too, it definitely is not the same. I’m going to miss nasi lemak, the curry laksa at Delicious and Alexis, dim sum at SS2 … every single morsel!

I can’t think of anything right now, and I actually shouldn’t be typing long blog entries because my nails aren’t 100% dry yet. I’m suddenly developed an obsession with painting my nails, and touching them up everyday. Sigh! I’m driving myself crazy.

I travelled all around the world last night.

I went out for dinner at Canadian Pizza with Terence, Chris, Nigel and Daniel last night. After that, we headed to the HMC Newbies Night so I could say bye bye to my lecturers and HMC peeps :) It was so sad, I cried for the first time. I especially cried hardest when I hugged Julian goodbye because I’m gonna miss him so much lah. I love the guy despite his emoness and his mission to make my life miserable! :P

Went to Breakers with Ezra and Terence after that, and then joined some people at Hartamas Square before meeting up with the Samsung gang at Sanctuary :D They gave me the sweetest present – a photo album with all our photos from our Samsung trips, and individual messages inside too :) Sanctuary was damn packed last night, but I got to dance, so I’m happy! They made me do vodka shots with them in the Ice Bar which is supposed to be -10 degrees, but to be honest, it was colder in Genting that time I went a couple of weeks ago. I think it was because the ice was melting and stuff already, meh.

Met up with Jun Wei, Yi Yang, and Mrina later on in the night and spent the night with them too. The vodka was getting to my head, so I think I was a bit tipsy when Sean called from Melbourne as well, heh heh! I think he was quite amused :P Can I just say that it was easily the worst sleep I’ve ever had?! You try being caught in between Jun Wei and Mrina’s tug-of-war with the blankets, and then poked, prodded, and kicked every few minutes! I literally woke up every 15 minutes to turn over. Stupid Jun Wei set the alarm for 7AM so we all woke up to Paris Hilton – Nothing In This World at that ungodly hour. When Mrina and Yi Yang vacated the bed, Jun Wei and I slept damn well, bliss!

Went to BSC alone to get my haircut with Liza :) :) FINALLY! Met up with Jun Wei and Yi Yang for lunch at La Bodega after that too. We were eating like pigs, but the food was too good, haha. And that’s saying a lot because I normally hate La Bodega’s food!

Photos tomorrow or when I get to Melbourne because the internet is fucked up.

We Belong Together

February 9, 2007 at 1:11 am (family, melbourne, photos)

Said goodbye to my grandparents, aunties and uncles on my Dad’s side tonight :( I stayed strong, and I didn’t cry although my eyes were filling up, and I really, really, really thought I would. Mrina, Jun Wei, and Yi Yang were there to keep me company anyway, so I just held back the tears. Baby, you would have been proud of me, not a single tear rolled down! :D :D But I will confirm cry at the airport, boo-hoo!
Anyway, I don’t want to blab long. Just a few photos from the night Jun Wei, Mrina, and I went for dinner at One Utama. We were at French Connection and the beanies were so cute!

PS: I am well aware that Christmas was over 2 months ago, and I will change the layout okay, you just give me time to settle in Melbourne first!

Don’t Mess!

February 7, 2007 at 12:31 am (nonsense, outing, ranting)

I think you all should know that I’m one of the weirdest people you’ll ever meet. Seriously. I was going through the archives of my old blog and can I just say, my life is never boring?!

Two weeks before SPM, my neighbours were playing with fireworks while I was studying History, and whenever they released one, I would jump three feet in the air. I was already high on caffeine, and very stressed out, so I did what any sane person would do.

I went outside and yelled a whole string of profanities at them.

No, really.

I told them that if they didn’t stop they’re all going to Hell and that they should be more considerate because SPM was in two weeks and that I didn’t give two fucks what celebration it was because I was trying to study History and if they didn’t stop their fireworks, I’ll burn down their house and all their offspring will suffer painful deaths.

I think they got the point because they stopped.

I settled back into my chair, and resumed studying. Half an hour later, double the number of fireworks! Buggers were probably doing it to spite me! So what did I do? Yell somemore? Nah, I’m better than that.

I called the cops on them :D A patrol car came round and summoned their asses.

I’m priceless, I know.

ANYWAY!

Had dinner at Vietnam Kitchen with Jun Wei and Mrina. It was full of dodgy conversation, and good company :) Had dessert with Jun Wei at Bakerzin after that (mmm, warm chocolate cake with thyme ice cream, please!) before Ian, Julian and Kevin came to pick us up. Went over to Jun Wei’s for a bit before asking my Mom to come pick me up since I wanted to go home :P

I was looking at photos of my belly piercing, and I miss it lah. I wanna go get it repierced before I leave, but at the same time I’m so lazy to take care of it all over again because it’s so hard to take care of! .. I have the terrible habit of getting pierced whenever I have nothing better to do, sigh. I don’t know, I’ll sleep on it.
