horoscope of the day

"Things are suddenly coming to a difficult stalemate regarding the love and romance in your life, dear Gemini. Perhaps you felt like everything was going fine and that you had nothing to worry about. In reality, this notion of "everything going fine" was just your self-denial hard at work, making you think that you could continue on the path you were on without really considering how your actions were affecting others. Be prepared for a reality check that you did not see coming."

hmmm.........what does that supposed to mean? Isn't a good sign eh?
Anyways today is the last day of 2005. Bygones be bygones. Let's move on friends! See you guys in 2006!
My first and could be my last time in life that i will celebrating my NYE in Sydney. Tonight mark at 12.00am i will be shouting Happy New Year at the Mrs. Macquarie's point to usher the new year! I doubt if u would believe this. I'm going to the vantage point now, yes! NOW!!!! because apparently all the gates in to all the vantage points for NYE wil be closed at 3.00pm. That's scary huh? A bit bizarre but i think i should get there and make sure i see the fireworks because this is the reason why i am still in Sydney right until today.

Another important thing is, i found a job. hahaahahaha....hope i will start working soon!

Checked out this morning at 9.00am. Currently writing/blogging (wink) from room 2. Bye bye room 4........

~tada~

Tonight would be my last night in Room 4. Bidding farewell to it tonight and i shall move on. What is left for this room is in my memories. Although i favoured it over the other, but i had encountered a lot in this place.

Cleaned the room, vacumm-ed, cleared most of my things. Now i'm left with 2 luggages and 2 empty boxes. I'm gonna feel the emptiness for the next 3 weeks.
Time flies........2/7 are coming back tomorrow.Safe trip to you and you. Summer school starts next week. In just a few days i'm going to leave this place. That's sad. But i couldn't wait for March......tht would also mean i couldn't wait to go home. Contradictions! I'm also confused. What do i want actually? This or that? I hope i will figure it out in March. I hope things will turn out pretty well.




Well, New Year's coming and let's hope for the best! To some unsolved puzzles what i can say is just *SIGH*. I'm sure it would not remain unsolved. The truth is out there. Let's check it out!

BOXING DAY

Boxing day sales begin today esp. in NSW,SA and WA due to some state legislation.
Woke up early in the morning with the hope of getting something cheap from Myer.
Went to Myer at 9am. It wasn't very crowded when i reach there but when i was about to leave at 11 plus, queues develop. Single file with a guard controlling the crowds at the escalators. Bally has the longest queue whether in QVB or Pitt St. The queue into Swarowski was long. When i say long it's long. The queue was up till where Salvatore Ferragamo is. Nine West without fail we will see ladies on the line. Myer has the most ppl of course. Myer even have their hourly sales. ALL Bettina Liano's jeans was 50% off yesterday from 7 to 8 am. The queus at the checkout counter was LONG too. It was about 10m away from the counter. What a mega sale!

whoosh.....My First ever encountered Boxing Day sales makes me shocked and amazed. NO SALES in M'sia can ever be compared to this one here. It's everything 50% off OFF OFF. Unlike what in M'sia, 10% or 20% which is nothing!

And this is my first time seeing Polo Ralph Lauren's boutique in such a MESS!!! This would never happen in M'sia!!! aiks! tsk tsk!

I did not buy much but manage to get what i want to. Hehehheehhee............

1 year....

Today marks the 1st anniversary of the Asia's Tsunami disaster. I could still rmb, now at this moment when i type this blog at 12.03noon which is equivalent to 9.03am in Penang when i felt the tremor. I was still on my bed in the middle of my fantasies and i thought my sister who was sleeping on top of the double deck where i was sleeping was shaking the bed. I scolded her without fail because i hate being disturb from my beauty sleep. It was shaking very very badly and it happened for a duration of a few minutes. At that particular moment i was like....Ish...stupid girl stop shaking the bed!!In a few secs later my dad started yelling....he said wake up wake up earthquake.........quickly save our lives. I of course without knowing anything pull myself out from the bed and went out to the living room and see what was goin on.I was half conscious by then. Looking at how lost we were, my dad repeats himself....and my sister and I ran clumsily down the apartment with mum and dad.Oh gosh........................it was a real bad experience.I could not imagine i will live until today if the earthquake was worst than it was. I wouldn't have gone through this year in Sydney which i think a memorable one and i dun think i will be able to graduate and a lot more repercussions from the earthquake.
I hope WE all the habitats on Earth will have a good year ahead with a bright future and hope. Free from natural disasters and War!

Merry Merry Christmas

Went to Darling Harbour for the Carols on the Bay last night.
Fireworks was on Display for approximately 50 seconds.
Reached home at about 11.
Thanks for your wishes yes YOU yesterday.
Thanks for be there.
Thanks for everything.
Enjoy Christmas all.....

Just finished watching Beauty and the Beast : The Enchanted Christmas on Channel 7
Now: It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas: The Movie; I dont like Muppets lerr....so i decided to change channel..(went to change the channel and tune for other channels......then turned off the tv)
Don't seem to have any interesting show on air. Guess i will just continue the drama series Twin of Brothers from TVB. Tomorrow's Boxing Day.....but what a sad story to begin with. There will be quite a number of stores that will be closed because this Christmas Falls on a Sunday and there we have Boxing Day is automatically a holiday. Don't look good huh?This Boxing Day don't seem to have lots of price slashing because the shops are not even opened. Well, luck isnt on my side anyway; but i'm kinda used of it. Tried to get a job by chance. No jobs! At the same time Moneyless. I hope things will be different next year. I hope I will have a good life ahead, at least God sides me next year cus next year will be my turning point.

New Year Resolution? I'm working on it......hahaahah

what's in common?

Can we pretend we never met?
Pretend there's nothing to forget
Can we pretend we weren't in love?
Let's pretend we've no-body to be reminded of

Baby let's pretend
That tonight could live forever
If we close our eyes
And believe it might come true

Baby let's pretend
We could always live together
But for now just let me
Spend the night with you

poor me

Drank an Affogato at 1pm.
Went to bed at 6 AM!!!
WOKE UP at 10.30 AM!!!

What's wrong with me?
I think i have caffeine intolerance. Not allergic but affects my sleeping pattern.

"Caffeine can have a pronounced effect on sleeping habits. Even a few cups of coffee in the morning can interfere with the quality and quantity of sleep at night. Caffeine consumption has been associated with insomnia, periodic leg movements syndrome, and restless leg syndrome."

quoted from,
http://www.holistic-online.com/Remedies/Sleep/sleep_insomnia-causes-food.htm

Random note:
An Inspector Calls - A Play, costs $60. I want to watch badly but i doubt if i could cus i'm in a pinch right now. Sigh......!

Later entry:
Just got back from the city. Actually went to Ctn On to make some exchange on purpose and i lose $3 dollars. Ish.....
Good exercise though but this time lazier la took a bus there and walked home.

This is what i keep forgetting the main topic of the day.
Dell computers are ASSEMBLED in Penang!
So city people, if u think that Penang is a kampung you can choose not to buy Dell cus u know la kampung things not as good hor? You know who u are!!!

lag!!

I keep on forgetting about this issue that i wish to blog about.
Our Uni Mail.
Ever since their upgrade, the process of loading and unloading a page is just taking my time.
Waited for i think 2 to 3 minutes to even get a compose window pop up.Even logging out takes a few minutes. WTH. Despite the new features that may pose some conveniency or i guess hightech-ness it is SLOW SLOW SLOW!
This morning i check my email as usual. Click on the unimail login page and the old layout of our uni mail is back with the red tab background as oppose to the new blue tab background.
Another thing i don't like about the new upgraded uni mail page is linking to another page. Whenever i press any link on the bottom of the page to MyUni or USyd homepage or IT Assist and etc it will automatically open a new window. Too much window is just making me confused! Why cant it just link to the site! Ish!
I did not say tht the new features is not good but at least make it user friendly! urrrhh...

Just remembered about this that i wanted to blog about!
VINCCI SHOES IS SELLING IN PITT ST MALL!!
It's called VNC. The concept is the same as VINCCI in Malaysia and you know what? I went into the shop and i intentionally look or actually stared at the shoe box. Well u guys know VINCCI's concept where the shoe boxes are all displayed outside and on the shelf and yeah i saw the word MADE IN MALAYSIA! It is exactly the same box that i have here in my room from VINCCI. And yet another thing which is important. A RM 39.90 strappy sandle selling in M'sia which is considered cheap is equivalent to AUD39.90 here that would be considered cheap to Aussies. If we would to buy and bring over to sell, it would be dirt cheap which come to about only AUD 10. Ooo...................These people are earning BIG BUCKS!

Just checked my email. FCUK is on sale!!!Oh uh...........i want to buy!!! urrggghhh

Later entry:
Just got back from Campos trying Affogato. Thanks Mr Lum for the coffee treat ehehehe...
FYI , Campos will be closed from Christmas Eve till 16th January. Coffee lovers out there be sure to visit Campos these few days. I'm high on caffeine now and i doubt if i could put myself to bed tonight.

Anyway, do i look fierce?hmmm......i don't understand what's in me that makes people feel afraid to ask me question i.e sensitive questions mayb.
Everytime before someone asked me a question they will start off with this
"I ask you something, but DON"T BE ANGRY ok?"
Do i look like i will be angry at all times?
Do i look like i'm unreasonable AT ALL TIMES?
I won't eat or bite!
Argghhh......why? If u wanna ask ask laaa! It's not that every questions that i will be bombarded with would create a rage in me. IsH!!!!!
Why would i create such an impression in all of you?
*scratches her head*

As i was reading I found this,

"It's like bailing out a sinking ship only to find out that you have been pumping water in"

pack,move,leave

Walked all the way to Circular Quay and back to SUV yesterday. Stopped by Pitt Street and Myer. Trying to see if i could grab any cheapr stuff. I was amazed with the crowd on Pitt St Mall. It was so so crowded that even walking across from Myer to Supre is hard. I guess i was there at the wrong time then cus it was lunch time. The crowd are contributed by the working population. As usual, i stopped by FCUK. (this is where i will go whenever im in the City) I spotted a cap and it's selling at $9.95. My eyes almost dropped out from my eye socket. So cheap! Oh my gosh...if i did not grab it when else will it be that cheap again. And of course without even thinking twice i went to the counter and paid the last $10 note that i have in my wallet. I think i'm getting more addicted to shopping. Err.......gotta have some self control. I think i have to spend money whenever i go out, otherwise i would feel something is wrong somewhere BUT don't know where. Gotta be prohibiting that persisting shopping behaviour to repeat! Ish!

On the way home, i walked pass Fisher and so i drop by with the intention of borrowing Tolkien or Rowling's series of story books, mana tau all checked out. In the end i found a book by Barry Maitland entitled SilverMeadow. A crime fiction and i think it would be great. Out is getting more interesting but my progress is still as slow.

I have god knows how much money left in my bank account and i have 32 more days which is equivalent to 1 month in Sydney before i "chap pau fok". I wonder if i could survive with that little amount of money.Supposed to work this week but no further news from T and i was told tht they might not people...oh please....i need money!! :'(
*finger's crossed* please let me work....

Slept last night following the M'sian time when i am in Sydney and yea as expected i woke up at 10 plus Sydney time. Eye bagss....go away! I think i should catch up more sleep tonight.

Spend the whole afternoon and i've packed all my stuff into my huge luggage bag and i think if i would to manage a flight ticket i can go on board without hesitation now.

More quotes:

You keep telling yourself. "That special someone is just a friend," But you realize that you can't avoid that person's special attraction. Although there is someone else who always makes you laugh but your eyes and attention might go only to the special someone. When you find yourself as one who cannot erase the messages in your inbox because of one message from that special someone. Then i think you are deeply in love.

Bear these in mind my dear friend. It may worth you spending your time and it may appear soon to be not worth even a second if you did not get what you gave in return.

"No man/woman is worth your tears, and the one who is won't make you cry"

finding the right one

Just today i came to realise the significance of the lyrics yet sometimes vague.

I sit alone
In the dark theatre watchin' the people go by
hand in hand
everybody but me
oh

I stay behind
watchin' the credits roll by
roll roll roll right by me

I know, I won't cry
cause there is somebody somebody somebody waitin' for me
out in the rain

oh cry
not tonight
because there is somebody waitin' for me
oh yeah

I take a walk
the streets are busy tonight
and I am searching for you
waiting to brush your shoulder
But I'm alone
I watch the faces roll by
roll roll roll right by me

But I know, I won't cry
cause' there's somebody somebody somebody waitin' for me
out in the rain

oh cry
not tonight
because there is somebody waitin' for me

How many words will go unspoken
Not knockin' on my door
I'm not talkin' the night I spent heart broken
BUt tonight I know
I won't cry no more
oh

I lie awake
I left the porch light on
I hope it helps you to find your way
outside
I hear the thunder roll by
roll roll roll right by me

But I know, I won't cry
cause' there is somebody somebody somebody waitin' for me
out in the rain
Not gonna cry tonight
no cause there is somebody waitin' for me
not gonna cry tonight
no
no no no no
oh
not gonna cry
not tonight cause there is somebody waitin' for me

I stay behind
watchin' the credits roll by
roll roll roll right by me

keykeeper

now in my possession is 6 SUV U-card plus 4 metal keys. Just upgraded from a resident of SUV to a keykeeper. NO wages earned though... hehehe

Was talking to my younger sister this afternoon. As usual whatever i asked her let it be what's mummy doing and where did papa go or how's elder sis and family and most importantly when is auntie from KL coming over for a hol. She would say this to me without fail " I dunno". This is exactly what she replied.I seriously dun understand how can she be so lack of concern. Then she further added that she's not a cnn and she doesnt have an antenna. Ish.....i replied her that "Oh yeah...i forgot. The antenna is here in Syd." WTH! What kinda sis is that? Asked me to buy this and that for her now that i am broke. But at least she's understanding enough tht i have money contraints and she said if i could afford i shall buy it for her. I'll try my best laaa ah phing (in mandarin). I hope i could work at least 1o hours a week to keep myself alive. Hopefully with fingers crossed to be able to earn some money to spend whether be here or in PENANG.( it's not Kampung to someone here!. FYI my aunt from KL(CITY) likes Penang so much that she will come over every year!) hhmppph!

I think i should change my routine a bit tomorrow. I shall go to the City for a walk and look around rather than keeping myself alone at home all the way until when the rest comes back. If this continues i think i would be growing mushrooms already. Thinking of going to the gym tomorrow. Depending on my mood again of course. Either gym or city sightseeing. Shall see how it goes. Oh...or i should set my arse in Kino and read read read. Opps...i have not finished reading Out ( the masterpiece of an award winning author). I think i better go get reading the cutting up of Kenji in pieces. ta....da...

play count for Collide touches 4 digit now hehehehehehe.

not tonight

I'm feeling a bit strange tonight. I think something just struck by or it's just my m. While i was walking near the green on the way back home i was looking at the sky full of stars. If only i could lie on the sandy beaches of bondi with "the one" while admiring at the stars and spotting the stars. But i don't think any of these comes any closer. I always wanted to go to the beach at night just admiring stars but going to the beach alone at night is not advisable. If only i could.........The journey is getting harder. The thought of applying a PR crossed my mind again last night. But i just could not do it!! Why would god do this to me! Can the 5 points drop from the clear blue sky. The intention of it dissappear once again i thought of the risk taking behaviour of applying when i don't have enough passing mark at all. On top of that, I need a job and money now! I wanna go shopping!I'm not happy!
The idea of posting is in a way expressing oneself. But when i post i'm expecting people to ask me why. If i don't wish to let you know i would not post all these. So i'm free to questions. Hahahaahaha...but i guess to most of you it is quite obvious what has been bothering me.

There are 3 songs so far in my life that reminds me of certain things

1. As Long As You Love Me - Backstreet Boys
2. Complicated - Avril Lavigne
3. Collide - Howie Day

Recently I have been Up to these Songs

1. Because of You - Kelly Clarkson
2. You're Beautiful - James Blunt
3. Cannonball - Damien Rice
4. The Rose - Bette Midler
5. Somebody - Bonnie Mckee
6. Collide too (play count reaches 372 after the reset)

I'm sure i will have ample time weeks ahead when i'm SUV alone. Gotta be thinking hard and watching hard. Take care people....enjoy Christmas and Happy New Year.

3/7 hangout

The abandoned ones in Sydney the 3/7 just had an outing just now. We went for dinner at Dixon's House. This friend of ours who doesn't know how to write the word paiseh said Hi and asked if they are going for a dinner and where they came from in the lift to two random ladies. For further information how embarass we was in the lift please do ask our great friend!

Anyway i ordered a Stir Fried Noodle eith shredded pork and pickled vegetables. It was damn not worth the money that i am paying for. The menu is misleading when the shredded pork turned out to be shredded pieces of fat. On top of that it is freaking undescribeable salty. After the not so satisfied dinner i decide to buy myself an egg tart. I swallowed 1 egg tart and 5 emporor's puffs. I was like full and satisfied! After that i suggested of going to Darling Harbour to have a chat but we ended up walking in World Square after popping by Market City because it was drizzling. We without fail go into Coles and take a look at any cheap stuff that we could find. Our dear friend was standing right in front of the Coles worker while he was unpacking the M&M's. At that moment what was on my mind was that he's craving for M&M's. Mana tau itu orang pee ambil kotak M&M kat pekerja. And he look so so excited just like when u buy a little boy an ice cream.OMG!.*I'm Lost!*
Then 3 of us walked on George St with the Ah Pek looking umbrella of K's with the condition of sheltering the box. So the conclusion is that the box, actually the M&M's BOX is more important than us! He even thought of holding the box behind his arse. Ish! I don't get it!

We flash goodbye to W when we reach Quay St. Then K and I went to Coles Broadway before we continue our journey back to our once very crowded SUV. All yoghurts on sale today. But i didn't get any because i fancy attiki yoghurt more than any other yoghurts on sale today. Then went to curi some milk crate from I think SUV's store room or shall i say the rubbish dump? I am not so sure.Now back to my blogging and msn-ing. Back to watching again later. Before i forget, i went to collect my flight ticket from STA Travel and then headed to the gym this afternoon. 7 left. ~bling~

So much that i've missed!I wanna go watch movie...I'm into movies addiction at times although most of the time i'm into eating. Not neglecting the other hobby of mine which is to scream in Redbox. Having the idea of watching a movie is different from having the idea of who you are going with. If u force someone who doesnt like to watch that movie with you, you will ended up not enjoying the movie. Basically, a dull movie may turned out to be an interesting one when you watch with certain people who are important to you or watching a movie with someone whom you have common interest with. Also the most pathetic situation ever that you could imagine is to watch a movie alone because everyone else has watched it. I did it once just before i came back to Sydney beginning of this year during the screening of Kungfu Hustle out of boredom.I think it is quite fun watching a movie alone but it really looks pathetic to other people.When you look to your right or left, you will find people staring at you (like u are from another galaxy) and they would have look at you in such a way that makes you feel uneasy.

9 and not 8

As far i could remember, the last time i went to the gym i was supposed to be left with 8 passes and not 9. This morn the man at the Arena Sports Centre reception told me i have 9 passes left. I was like "Oh allright, thanks!". That would also mean that i have to go more often to finish using all the passes before i leave for good. I have to at least visit the dumbbells and cardio machines twice a week. That would be tricky because summer in Sydney is not fun to spend a day out. If it is 22 to 25 degrees i might be outside just like today, otherwise i will be staying in.

Gyms during the holidays are kinda interesting. Those gym visitors we see are different from those that i see during semesters (as far as i am concerned). Lesser people and older people too. *hahaha*

Just right after i came out from my room after shower, i was freaked out to see two police in my living room with two other paramedics. One friend of my housemate sitting on the arm chair holding a pack of ice on his right hand and his forehead wounded. Blood on his short khakis. I asked what happend of course. My housemate told me "He got mugged by a group of 5 to 6 ppl". My housemate look terrified and he was traumatised. What happened was my housemate was on the phone with him when he was walking on Campbell St, a few of them came and got him and took away his phone. Not forgetting that my housemate actually heard what happened over the phone(a live thing). He then came to buzz my housemate to ask for help. That's how he ended up in my apt and that's why the police and the paramedics were here.
When i heard it, i was traumatised too. It is very very scary. Especially when i am alone here in SUV. Things happen. It happened on him today, what about tomorrow? Who will be the next victim That i don't wish to imagine. What i think i can do is take precaution measures. And to the rest too; do not go anywhere alone anytime (not just now, whenever, esp we are staying in this particular unsafe suburb!)

What have i done for the past few weeks? You might be interested to know.

1. Some sleepless nights
2. Cheese Fondue testing at Neutral Bay
3. Around Sydney with SH
4. Around city window shopping with 4-5/7
5. Hurricane's Grill - 2 visits in a week.
5. Completion of The Rose
6. Toni Roma's
7. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - the movie
8. The Island - the movie
9. Eat - sleep revolving cycle.
10. Watching (ed) tv programs i.e Survivor, Everybody Loves Raymond, Smallville, Charmed,Malcom in the Middle, Huey's Cooking, MTV awards 2005,Iron Chef, etc.
11. A novel by a famous Jap author Natsuo Kirino - due to completion
12. Moved a tv and a fan to my room
13. One Tree Hill Season 1 - due to completion
14. Most importantly - trash clearing in 5301-4. It's half empty now with 5 shelves cleared. It feels just like the first few weeks when i first came to Sydney.
15. Gym

I have so much time yet too little. So much dramas and movies on my table waiting for me to watch 'em. I have no idea how to finish looking at them. If i get myself i job, i bet my time will be lesser. By the time im done with work i would be tired and i would rather spend time making wonderful dreams rather than looking at the fritional unrealistic stories of the human inventions. Anyways...i guess tht's about all the nagging here. Wish to have more interesting things to do! *wink* *wink*

Later Entry
Went friendstering just now and it took me about an hour to finish looking (actually to 8). Anyway....looking at how those people i know changed....ever since i last see them in high school. Most of them are pretty ladies now. I always wonder why am I still the same?Might it because i refuse to change or have i not realise that i actually have changed? Now more wiser or stupider, uglier or prettier,funnier or stern, crazy or stiff, younger or older (it's kinda obvious),fairer or darker, patient or impatient, sarcastic or offensive (i think both), big baby or papa's manja daughter,smart sister or dumb sister, long winded or straight to the point, straight forward or behind the bushes, out of my mind or on the right track, the left or the right road,up or down the journey, love or hate, sing or scream, laugh or smile, memorable one or forgetable ones.

So much to think about! Ish........my life is getting complicated! Complicated as days accumulated. As those around me accumulates. As things that happens around accumulates. As feelings accumulates. As memories accumulates! This is just the 4th stage of my life. The very first stage i wasnt quite aware hence without regrets i moved on to stage 2 of my life. It lasted for 11 years. Could you even imagine how long it was. Then there it comes stage 3 which lasted for a bare 2 years followed with my 4th stage in life now. Although this stage which is also a bare 2 years, it seems ages to me and i'm sure this would be the most unforgetable ones that i will always remember. Stage 5 of my life awaits me down the road. I could foresee stage 5 as the stage where my career path is and i guess if my mum and dad would be lucky enough to get rid of their daughter then i think in Stage 6 i would be getting married and bear children. (i am not ready for this right now, so mummy and papa be patient la..not forgetting my sister too be patient as i will still be there to share the room with you!). Common sense dictates that after that it would be the final stage where i will sit on a rocking chair waiting to explore the other part of the world which nobody in this world have any idea how that world looks like.We shall see how it goes.........i'm sure all of us have to go through this. Finger's crossed hope the best will come into our life! ~bling~

missing you

hope i could be seeing you again. talk to you face to face and see you "lawaking". take care and i think i should be able to catch up with you later. to some of my friends, some remarks creates curiousity.
anyway.....this morn I woke up later than expected. Went for lunch with W,Y and P. Went to have a look at their brand new rented apt at Larkin. Very spacious indeed and not expensive. I wish i could move into one of these apts.
I heard something that is quite bizarre from a friend just now. I do not find any logic behind what my friend just told me.
Anyway it hasnt got anything to do me. Just ate my dinner an hour ago. I know it's odd at this time but i could not help it. The hunger just kills me.
Sydney is still that sunny. 2 fans on me still.
I have lots to do....like what? Dramas and movies of course. Besides that...sleeping and eating. Not forgetting watching tv and reading novels.
This is my life now in Sydney in this particularly freaking summer.

Later entry
I forgot about this good news that i wish to deliver to all of you. The good news is "Bling is graduating!!". My wish finally come true....actually my parent's wish or in fact my family's wish came true. My dad has an university grad daughter. He must be very tired waiting for this day to come..cash outflows all the time hoping for the orchard to bear fruit. Now the first orchard of his produced fruits! Yaya....!!! HHahahaa......i am overly excited. It's a relieved to him.
I hope all of you who are still in uni enjoy uni before it's too late like me and study smart and graduate with flying colors. I shall see you on your graduation hat soon. chane

freaky summer

Woke up early today at 8......begin the day with a light breakfast further followed by clearing my room. Clearing all my lecture notes and tutorials. So don't feel like throwing them away. But what have i got to do with them?Send it back home?They are just "sampah" now. I have cleared 5 shelves just now and now i am just resting after coming back from a 3 hour grocery shopping. When to the Wentworth Building to pay the balance of my flight ticket and head towards K-Mart to return a seasonal electronic appliance.
ALL meat in coles today are on sale. Stock in some for the rest of my 1 month here in Sydney. The weather here is so so hot that i would rather stay at home doing nothing.
All my results are out today. I am quite dissappointed with it. Results for this term is the lowest low compared to previous term's. Lowest in Economics and Finance. Everything just Go-Lo. That's why i've got to go Bi-Lo. err..what i am i blogging about. Just sad....i should be thankful that at least i did not fail. Otherwise my dad will be very sad with me as i have to stay longer here and he has to keep sending me money. Then the guilt in me keeps developing. But what have i got to do...i still need to depend on him until i finally found a good job..the ideal job...the job that i like, the one that i am going to live it with.
Summer in Aussie is no fun man!It's freaking hot. 2 fans on me.

eNog

Everyone else has left. Left the 3/7 combination in Sydney. Life has been quite relaxing recently. So relaxing that i feel the boredom from it. It's freaking hot today out there at 39 degrees. BBQ humans on sale.
3 weeks from now i shall stay in and cut down spending, otherwise i will be dead in January when there are no inflows. My dad called last night when i was about to go to sleep, talking about the same issue again. But he didn't ask me to go home. He was asking why am i still here in Sydney when everyone else has left. What is there for me to do. I told him i have been watching dramas. Hahahahah....so "wu liau".Wanted to ask for more money from him but the guilt in me develops. Feels gutless to ask for more. Finding a job isnt easy....some people may think i wasnt actively looking for a job but i am it's just that there are no replies at all. What's with my luck with the part time jobs here. Unfortunately.....
This morn, i cleared out some trash. Got myself a tv in room, thanks to a friend. At least i have one more thing to do.
3 weeks from now too i have to start packing up to move over to Z's room. Hope that everything goes well. To M,V,Y and C enjoy summer in M'sia. To K, i hope god will side u soon. To W, enjoy relaxing at Harmony.

November's gone. It's December

51 days to my departure. I lost my play count last night. The last play count i saw was 792. It will hit that figure soon i'm sure. Yesterday during tea time, the fridge in the village store spoilt and they gave out free ice creams. I got quite a few and they are set in place in my freezer. There's a new product in town. Nudie n' Ice. Try them, I've tried the mango and pineapple. It is good! haha. Everyday i see people leave, leaving behind all that has happened this year. One day i shall leave, the time when most of them are not around. It could be a better way to leave too. But now i really hope that i could at least get a job from Coles for their casual positions.
To those of u who are leaving tomorrow M, Monday C, Tuesday V and J, Good Luck and Take Care
To those who will be starting their summer vacation jobs M,A,B,N,D and K, All the Best.
