♥ first day of semester 2
well, holidays flew by pretty quickly.
it mainly consisted of working at reddot (1 - 2 days a wk) and vodafone (2 - 3 days a wk)... except for the last week of holidays, i took off most my shifts, working only the thurs night at reddot.
i've gone out with the boyfriend, caught up with a few friends (not as many as i would have hoped). organised our lifegroup retreat. semi cleaned my room. and did lots of shopping. lots of shopping.
i'm turning my wardrobe around, and trying to avoid shopping at places that have cheap clothes but not really the best of quality.
i've been having pretty bad back / shoulder pain lately. might have been from sleeping on the couch at the retreat =/
well a few weeks ago i made curried egg sandwiches for a picnic i had with some high school friends. and i made lasagna on the weekend. and if you didn't already know, i never cook because i'm terrible at it.
but i'm trying to change. unfortunately, i haven't received much support and the response i've gotten has been pretty disheartening. can't a girl try to change, without having others comment on how long it's taken or being really sarcastic about it. why can't people just appreciate that i'm trying, that change is starting to happen?
anyways. the retreat went well - everything worked out in the end - transport, food, accommodation... i however, was a bit all over the place. my personality is very... hmm. i needed everything to be perfect, organised properly, done my way - which leads to me being stressed, bossy and frustrated. and then when i'm like that, i start being defined as those things by the people around me. which kinda sucks, because what if i was trying to change, but their words just mock my attempt to? not everyone is perfect!
anyways this has turned into a very negative post! which doesn't really summarize my holiday that well. i blame it on my current bad mood.
til next timeee~

♥ back at home
i'm back! yes i arrived back in perth this morning, after 12 days in cambodia and another 10 in KL...
i would blog in more detail, but i'm feeling rather lazy and i haven't got my pictures to add to my posts because i left my SD card in Huy's laptop =(
but in good news, i've come back and still have a job! in fact i'm working like 4 days a week for the next few weeks.. but my employment / store-transfer thing still hasn't been confirmed so nothings too definate yet
and in not so good news, i didn't get an offer for first rounds but i surprisingly took the lack of an offer quite well and it didn't bother me too much. i think the boyfriend was more dissappointed than i was haha. i am trying to rest, and it is easier when you know that despite whatever happens, God has a plan for meeee.
second rounds come out early feb, will keep you posted :)

♥ Sydney Trip
The Sydney Journey
The past 10 days has consisted of little sleep, long days, new friends and lots of shopping.
My trip to Sydney begun on a Tuesday morning. Ken picked me up and straight to DFO we went! No time wasted, shopping was definitely on the top of the list of priorities. I’ve been to Sydney before, especially when I was on YOTY tour and did all the “tourist-y” things. I wasn’t interested in the museum, art gallery, library, zoo etc. I wanted to shop. I wanted to eat. I wanted to not be a tourist. Yet still enjoy all the normal everyday things Sydney has to offer.
Shopping was actually pretty good. Despite Ken trying to pay for my things, he was actually really helpful. He helped find sizes on the racks. He helped look through piles of clothes for designs. And every time he help up a shirt or a shoe and I said “nah it’s too _________”, he actually remembered all the things I didn’t like to find something that I did. Quite amazing for a guy I thought. Very handy shopping buddy.
For dinner we headed to Strathfield for some Korean BBQ. Then off we went to Tamara’s place in Double Bay. It was quite a nice / fancy suburb.
Wednesday, Ken came over and we went for a short walk around the suburb. It’s such a pretty place. There was this cool wharf thingo with a view of the city and lots of nice boats around.
Then we headed into town. Dim Sum in China Town for brunch, Paddy’s markets and into the heart of Sydney for more shopping. Market City was interesting. Some awesome stuff there for good prices. Grabbed some take away asian for dinner (porridge & duck with rice) and went back to Tamara’s to eat.
Next day, Ken picked me up and we were meant to head somewhere (I forgot where) but basically we got lost and somehow ended up going down this long stretch of road (that was on the way to the airport) that had no exists. So we ended up just deciding to go to Bankstown or Campbelltown or something like that – I don’t remember exactly the name of the suburb. We had lunch at this cool Sportsbar thing that had some pretty gardens inside and a variety of different restaurants. We then went hunting for my mum’s asian cake moulds which was way more difficult than I was hoping.
Dropped by the “Italian Forum” which is like this place which is surrounded by apartments and has little restaurants and ice-cream parlours – and it looks just like Italy (well, at least looks like what I would think Italy would look like). Grabbed some icecream. Got a parking fine (whoops). Went to USyd to check out where I’d be spending the next week. It’s quite an old school look uni. Ken took me around. Got some pretty pictures. Sat down in the library and talked for a while.
Then headed to Darling Harbor for dinner. Was lining up for some fancy Italian restaurant but then gave up because it was taking too long and I didn’t want to be home too late. Ended up getting Aportos! My first time! It reminds me of nandos haha. Then we went home and said our final goodbyes.
It was really good to catch up with Ken while I was in Sydney. I hadn’t seen him in 2 years. He’s a real gentleman, the kind of guy who opens the car door for you, pays for all your meals / things, checks if you are okay quite often. Now as much as that is sweet, I sorta kept having to tell him to not. “Dude, I can open the door myself”, “STOP paying for my stuff, you’re more broke than me!”, “I am FINEE, I just make funny noises at random times”. It’s not surprising to hear how his past girlfriends have been using him somewhat – he’s such a pushover, the poor boy.
Friday, I slept in. Was contemplating whether I should stay at home and rest but I got bored so ended up finding my way to the train station (which NO ONE told me was UPHILL btw!) and took it to Bondi Junction for some more shopping! My arms ached by the end because I wasn’t use to having to carry them (since Ken had been stealing them for me). It was a massive Westfield! Did even more shopping. Yup, definitely overdid the shopping this trip haha. Not as bad as I have done before, but still.
Saturday Alvin picked me up from Tamara’s. And I moved into his apartment at Bondi Junction (it was soooo coooool). Then we headed out to town for lunch – Ramen at this Japanese place in a food court in China Town. One of Alvin’s friends had recommended it. The soup was really thick (but it’s meant to be like that) – tasty though.
Then we went to watch WEST SIDE STORY! My first musical! It was better than I would expect from a musical. Alvin says Wicked is really really good so I’m quite tempted to go (tickets are just soooooo expensive ~ eeek).
Then I met one of Alvin’s friends and went back to the apartment to get ready for dinner. And we went to this nice Italian restaurant in Newtown and met more of Alvin’s friends.
And that was the first 5 days! The summit began Sunday. But that’s for another blog.

Btw, I’ve been writing this on the plane (arghh such a long plane ride! 5 whole hours)

had a good night sleep last night too haha. was pretty tired from the early morning flight.

♥ study breakk
so today i went to church.. the went to hjs for lunch with chris
when i was ordering 2 bacon deluxes however, i forgot to ask for one without cheese.. and chris hates such cheese... so as you can see, he resorted to scrapiing it all off with a spoon. two layers of it haha.
got some pretty decent study done in teaching room 2 (after getting kicked out of a study room we didn't book...) ahhh the world of stats..
by the time we took a break, kongs and even the japanese place was closed... so ended up getting my green tea icecream from the university asian restaurant. it actually wasn't too bad... pretty pricey though, $4.50! but for two scoops.. i guess it is more than the lil tubs... it was just kinda icey.
so far the one from kongs is the best :)
here is a list of places i've gone in the past week while my parents were away
- alan's housewarming
- lifegroup @ aarons
- easter dinner @ josh fu's
- lil caeser & san churros with timmie
- easter dinner at bf's hse
- the movies - Greenzone
- 2 fat indians with louis, nick, etc... on their fooding day
- epic espresso with zin and ange
- korean bbq with ry varn linda & cat
- the maze in bullsbrook for av's 19th
- yoty state finals in melville
oh and chuck in a few treks to uni to attempt to study.
so yes, a very jam packed busy and tiring study break. with i must admit, too much going out, too much spending and too much eating
and definately not enough studying.
i'm screwed...

♥ dt + green tea ice cream = a happy dt
green tea icecream
YUM!
i blame the girls for getting me into it..
but i found out the japanese restaurant in broadway sells it for $2.50 and it was really creamy hey.
and then the next day i went looking at kongs also in broadway, and they sell an italian version, which was really nice also for $2.50
and i remember last time i went with a few of the girls to that asian restaurant on the corner and got some there to.
eventually, i would have tried all the green tea available in broadway! that shall be my mission for the rest of the semester. should be pretttyyy easy :)
so anyways today i had my first maths test, and i really did a lot of practice questions in preparation, so i felt good with the amount of work i did. alas i did not study the theory aspect however.....
so i made that part up, but writing something is better than nothing (as long as what i wrote doesn't make me sound stupid =/...) so hopefully i still end up with a decent mark..
now i must admit, i am getting slightly stressed with my workload. and i feel sorta stupid about it, because at this point of my life, i am actually not doing that much (outside uni and work) in comparison to my high school days. so these stress levels are not what i would expect. i think it has to do with motivation, rather than just a time issue.
so it's mid semester break next week... and despite being a nice holiday for most, unfortunately that is not the case with myself =[...
it will consist of a lot of easter related events / church services, two lifegroups, two birthdays, quite a few days of work, yoty state finals, and of course studying for all my tests and doing all my assignments.
two tests (psyc & stats) and one assignment (stats) due the first week back, another assignment (psyc lab report) due the week after... not the mention more assignments and tests to finish the month of may.
SIGH.
oh and did i mention? my parents have departed on their little adventure... leaving me with my sister. and you might all be thinking that this is great and tthat i love it, but really when my parents are gone, my sister is just as (if not more) protective than my parents... GREAT!
and she always leaves me to do all the watering of dads plants, and feeding the dog and all that....... -.-"
anyways, i should stop procrastinating and complaining and do something useful.
sigh, could really do with some green tea icecream right about now...

♥ ballarat
- ballarat is a really cold place. really cold. i don't think i've ever been anyone colder. i can't imagine what snow will be like.
- when eating at formal dinners, your bread is located on your left. the one of the right is for the person on your right, who happened to be the district governor for me.
- old ladies (i'm talking 50s-70s) know how to dance.
- older couples are cute. especially when they get up to slow dance to a live band.
- new york new york is a song that brought back many memories from tour, when the 17 piece seb big band played it live.
- i've been living on 5-6 hours sleep for the past three days.
- waking up at 6am to absolute FREEZING cold, makes it 10x harder to get outta bed. but i had a plane to catch.
- the zonta clubs are full of warm friendly women.
- if ur not prepared for speeches, just be yourself, like your having a conversation with someone. show them your personality. it works.
- i am still feeling groggy.
- lack of sleep + cold/flu + getting pms + long and busy weekend = a very sick me.
- still haven't completely finished packing. feel like going back to sleep in fact.
- i hardly took any pictures. it was way to awkward to actually get up and go around to take pics. so i didn't. regrettably.
- sigh, i feel like crap.

♥ busybusy, 12hrs til VIC.
i'll be flying to ballarat in less than twelve hours.
i've sorta packed. but it's not easy. 7kg. for 10degree weather, i mean yes, okay, i''ll be there for like 3 days. but still. i need to pack formal suit like gear for the conference during the day. as well as fancy dressy type stuff for the gala dinner at night. pjs with a jumper. and warm stuff for general wear.
gah, i'm struggling. i've never been a good packer.
i'm bringing my laptop too, for the 4hr+ flight. to do my speech and powerpoint presentation. hmm. i'm so last minute sigh!
finally got the courage to ask the girl at work about her pregnancy, only to get the sad news she terminated because the doctor said something about her small body size not being good enough or something =[ ouch it hurt hearing that.
i feel like i'm getting slightly sick, feverish almost. runny nose is A for Annoying.
today was fun. we ended up going for dimsum. gosh we ate a lot. lotsa oily stuff too. felt really sick after, but it took a while to kick in. tea really helped. tried that vanilla chai that ry loves. and went home and had some lipton. oil in body from food + nice yummy warm tea = feeling so much better.
oh, went to visit the admissions center. lady told me abt bonded and even gave me a brochure. it's not as bad as many make it sound ahaha. and like it doesnt effect ur chances of getting non bonded if u stick bonded as 2nd pref. so yeah she totally got me convinced, i've changed it on tisc already. but whether i'll accept or not, i've still got a few months to decide.
she also told me average for interviews was 90 for umat. and average gpa for entry was arnd 6.3
hmm. i'm sitting on a 86 and 6.125 (sem 1)
must avoid gpa from going down, even though this semester is so much harder.
must be strategic and try to get 75+ for each subject, then i can get that 6.3
will have to really hit the books when i get back from ballarat.
speaking of ballarat. the minimum goes down to 3 DEGREES. THREE?!
and maximum TEN!
i am going to freeze my butt off.

naw, my boyfriend leaves to america in 2 days, *sadface*...
i will miss him dearly, but it will also be a good time to rediscover myself.
not to say i've lost myself because of him... but maybe i haven't had as much time as i use to.
since i finished my exams (on monday), i've got quite a bit done...
got my proof of age card done... still working through getting my passport done... i went to my 18yo follow up with raine study... watched oceans 13 at josh's house... went to sizzlers for dinner... worked thurs night / sat morn... went ice skating...
and tomorrow will consist of church, family lunch at my place, then family dinner at his place... ( i think )
on another note.. i ended up getting shoessss... there wasn't really any pretty air maxes left, and the superstar inserts had really ugly coloured inserts O_O im talking like green stripes and purple bubbles...... yess... so i just got these, nice and simple. (shh, they're guy shoes...)
health wise, i'm not feeling too flash, i've been getting stomach pains in the past 24 hours, and i'm not sure why. it's not that time of the month (even though i've been super moody)... it might be the sizzlersss... doh.
i have quite a bit of a headache now too, so i might nap for while... before going for a walk (if my feet can handle it because they're in pain from ice skating and its really windy outside...) and cleaning my room... and still filling up that box for josh to take with him. oh and i need to order twloha and relient k tonight... *makes mental list of things to do*
oh on a finishing note, quite a few people came through reddot today and were pregnant... i felt like asking them when they were due, but thought i'd probably sound a bit freaky / weird. and then there were all these cute kids ice skating as well. hehe, they skated better than my bf... xD
p.s. my nailpolish is chipping... sigh, and i thought rimmel would be descent =( i'm getting use to the black though, it was really freaky at first hehe.

♥ air max vs air force 1
i want these.
he wants me to get these.
so as u can tell, we have quite different tastes and preferences.
and i must say..
i am getting slightly worried
that my boyfriend will return from america
with a very different fashion sense...
and i must admit i have had quite an impact on his wardrobe the past few months.
and i think that's going to drastically go down the drain once we returns.
sighhhhhhh
it's okay. i will still love him. hehe.
P.S. ahh, picked up some blackk work shorts and plaid shorts from just jeans the other day. $9.95 each.. gotta heart sales!
however, i got slightly fustrated seeing my black shorts which i bought full price for $39.95, selling for only $9.95 now =(

♥ my feelings - in parts x]
i kinda of can't describe how i'm feeling right now. its sorta like a mixture. i'll try to break it up.
a part of me is relieved that my anthropology assignment is done. finished. handed in. and that i'm happy at the way it turned out (thanks again for the editing bub)
a part of me is feeling tired, maybe it's from the lack of sleep this week (or maybe just last night, ahh...) or maybe from playing badminton today (ahh so unfit...)
a part of me is in awe of God's unconditional love (despite how much we humans sin and how many times we fail... and how many times we sway away... and reject and walk away from God...)
a part of me is longing for my boyfriend's arms to be around me (even though i only saw him just over 3 hours ago)
a part of me is amazed at his obedience, his willingness and faith.
a part of me is happy because i got to eat kfc today. AND duck for dinner. <3...>
a part of me wishes i was on an island. and it was sunny (but not too hot). and i was lying down on a beach chair with sunnies and my bathers... and i actually had time to read a book. maybe twilight, or my sister's keeper. seems like i haven't had time to read either since uni started.
a part of me wishes i could be in melbourne to see that awesome speech ed's going to give.
a part of me wishes i could go to america with him.
a part of me wishes uni was over. that holidays were here. ahh holidays <3.
a part of me looks to the future. and can't wait. it's going to be great.
a part of me is still wondering whether i should go to the doctor. where would i find the time anyways? it hasn't happened lately. and i know when it happens. while im coughing when im sick. or when im brushing my teeth. mmm...
a part of me is feeling unacomplished. so far this year, i haven't got involved in the community like i wanted. i haven't ordered twloha shirts. i haven't donated blood. and with umat coming up - i guess that will be my next focus. it's time to start crossing out that to do list...
anyways. i need to shower! then it's either ilecture time. or maybe just reading a book. i dont really know. but i look foward to a relaxing night.

a part of me wishes i was on an island. and it was sunny (but not too hot). and i was lying down on a beach chair with sunnies and my bathers... and i actually had time to read a book. maybe twilight, or my sister's keeper. seems like i haven't had time to read either since uni started.
a part of me wishes i could be in melbourne to see that awesome speech ed's going to give.
a part of me wishes i could go to america with him.
a part of me wishes uni was over. that holidays were here. ahh holidays <3.
a part of me looks to the future. and can't wait. it's going to be great.
a part of me is still wondering whether i should go to the doctor. where would i find the time anyways? it hasn't happened lately. and i know when it happens. while im coughing when im sick. or when im brushing my teeth. mmm...
a part of me is feeling unacomplished. so far this year, i haven't got involved in the community like i wanted. i haven't ordered twloha shirts. i haven't donated blood. and with umat coming up - i guess that will be my next focus. it's time to start crossing out that to do list...
anyways. i need to shower! then it's either ilecture time. or maybe just reading a book. i dont really know. but i look foward to a relaxing night.

♥ time for some reflection.
listening: to nothing-ness
feeling: pain in shoulders back and thighs from badminton last night
laughing at: http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=665847
its been a busy few days. super duper busy. not really a "holiday". no relaxing or anything.
lots of organising! walking! events! work!
anywayss.. its time for some self reflection.
i had someone say to me today that im bossy... xP and i know it too!!
but sometimes i dont realize it WHEN i actually am.. i just really like being organised. get things done. dont waste time. but i can often come across as very dictatorship-like ... ^^"
i guess thats one of my faults! definately something i need to work on.
i rmb lewi sayin to me that he could see me in a management sorta position. i guess i could too.
but it's not really what i WANT to do. but its something i could definately do.
ohh we're not all perfect. me included. but yes. i really need to work on it.
i should also work on losing weight.. xP because durin exams i ate soo much crap.
2moro will be filled with REST. sleeping in <3...>
sigh. it will be good to have a break =] my body is aching from baddy yest.
it was quite fun though ^^ havent played in so long. definately should get back into it!
only prob is ... herbie usually opens for fri nites or sun arvo. and most sun arvos ill be workin cauz of christmas trading.. and fri nites are always busy. i guess i should really start going on those afternoon walks.
hmm.. this new beginning isnt starting off too well...~
